Your problem Song is that you need to get over expecting any football department to tell you the truth. For a number of reasons it is not in their interest to hit you with the brutal facts. They also are quite often in the position that they don't know.

Now that I have had at Quarter time for most of the last two years WJ

Versus blind faith

I think that is the nub of our situation tm. As Dees supporters we tend to have an inflated opinion of our player list. We have been in the bottom 3 -4 sides for almost all of the last decade under Three main coaches. That says to me our list is poor. We have lots of players on the list who are not AFL standard but as supporters we want to believe that Joe Blogg is after five years on the list just in need of a good coach. The reality is that Joe is not up to it. with the exception of 5 -6 players the fact that a player has played regularly for the MFC proves only that he is one of the better ones of a poor lot. When we get to being a competitive team I will be impressed by players that are regulars. IMO The test of a player is how many would the top four sides want from the MFC. The answer for me is probably about five. Another five might make a bottom half of the ladder side The rest would find themselves in the WAFL, SANFL or the VFL.

Paul Roos and a team that knows what the hell they are doing. Hopefully by this time in 2016 we will see the positive results.

Two things Nutbean - Change lots of others to almost anyone - We have been blessed with lots of Geese.

I cannot wait till tomorrow more please?

I simply don't understand the hatred for the Hawks. They are everything the MFC should be. Over the last twenty years they have been well run and the MFC has been run badly. Hence the two positions of the clubs currently. We should be inspired to fashion ourselves in their image.

I never saw that coming!

Thank god you left out the two crocks, yes we need some support for Hogan and Fitzy.

NO

So far the ledger for the above is three losses and one undecided but we are off to a slow start. Not good results so far

IMO only a miracle will keep Frawley at the MFC. We need to win far more games than this list is capable of getting. If he leaves who could blame him certainly not me.

They would be laughing themselves to sleep. We paid big money for a guy who cannot get on the park and at best will not until well into the 2014 season if at all.

With the best time of the year for Dees fans drawing to a close , some would say it ended last saturday Draft time is November 2014. I think we can say that is the next highlight and the start of the 2015 season DF

It is Wednesday so where is episode 2?

Glad I am not the only one BBP.my thoughts are not too dissimilar.

I have had a number of contacts with MFC staff over the last year and have had good results.Pity some other areas of the MFC are not as good. God only knows how they stay so cheerful surrounded by the misery that has been the MFC.

Yes bb.Not sure what has got into you lately you keep trying to think for yourself. Silly boy!

Almost right sue. The easy part with the MFC is that seldom are we (a) in the winners circle so you can predict losses with great accuracy and (b) if it can go wrong for the MFC it usually does. Leaving that stuff aside tell me do you expect Dawes and Clark to be big contributors in 2014?

Interesting Robbie I have the distinct feeling Both Dawes and Clark have legs that will no longer go the distance at AFL level. Not there faults but none the less they are looking like very expensive flops. Now watch them fall upon me.

I have never sort to agree against that H_T Lets end we are boring everyone else to death.

Proves that even killer spiders have good taste Redleg!

YES and Richmond overlooked Buddy

This my last on the subject. In the context of did the MFC overlook him? Yes End of story the reporter was right. It matters not that anyone else overlooked him.
