  1. You believe it was a closed fist....on what basis .... on that clip??? Who was the scumbag who did Bernie Vince last year and wasn’t penalized a penny? I wait, with no real anticipation, Michael Christian applying his high moral standards with consistency and without bias during the remainder of his reign.
  2. I guess we should be happy that Carlscum’s doctor didn’t transfer to Norf in the off season ..... Clarry would have been rubbed out fir the season. Agree. Absolutely zero nothing in that at all. Christian is keeping up (or rather down) the reputation of his predecessors at the MRP.
  3. If he achieves success, and if he performs harder at Port than he did with us, then it would at least say something about his lack of commitment to MFC. He could have with greater sustained effort (if he is really that good) turned around at least 3-4 goals over the entire season 2017 which would have seen us in finals (and probably not in Bali ) later in September.
  4. It may in fact have been another contributing factor in his desire to leave.
  5. Political? Or are you referring to political correctness?
  6. Now that is something to really get excited about. SWYL - do you know for a fact that he wasn't? Our club now plays their cards close to the chest, unless it suits them to do otherwise eg with the Watts trade offer.
  7. Mark my words. At least some of this year’s draftees will be labeled “duds” (or some other offensive derogatory term) by some on this forum if they don’t dominate at least some matches next season.
  8. Based on what? Highlights reel?
  9. Much as I dislike him (probably because he plays for Norf and usually carves us up) but the locks haven’t done Ben Brown too much harm.
  10. Thanks jackaub Question: how many shovel ready (to use Denial Andrews’ jargon) mids or others do you reckon were available when our turn came about? Names?
  11. Are you suggesting that he will be able to get away with tripping opponents his entire career, and also do PEDs and be lauded as a hero?
  12. What would they know? We have WJD here.
  13. Should fire up well against the Saints then.
  14. So, Rocky, you already prefer a totally unproven teenager to OMc and possibly Frost. Dont sit down too heavily: crystal balls ? tend to be fragile.
  15. Are you serious? That would mean the AFL treating MFC and EFC in an even handed manner, like alternating home games and not having one club monopolizing for a decade.
  16. Jesse is clearly angling for a pay rise as he can’t afford socks, or a jacket that fits him.
  17. I tend to agree - other than his well publicized brain fade he just works hard and often unnoticed. Hopefully he will return chastened and with all to prove. ( Still regard him as a fringe player - the “incident” will make or break him IMO.
  18. Maybe they have really shirt memories and only recall our totally pathetic “effort” (using the term really loosely) last time we met.
  19. monoccular replied to Goffer's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Sean Charles #2??
  20. ?. Had I done so, it would at least give my psychiatrist something to work on to earn his money.
  21. I certainly agree with your view that the term “going to be a gun” is grossly overused - I clearly remember more than one poster (though I can’t remember who) throwing the term “gun” re the likes of Blease, Strauss, Maric, Morton, even Tynan and Taggert. Lets hold off such lauding until they actually do something eg Oliver, Viney
  22. Could fit in quite well ?
  23. Yeah....I am certain that the club would never have give that any thought at all ?
  24. Mmmmmm. Does a few good things against the Dees ..... hope he can learn the opposite ?
  25. Adelaide were, until now, my favorite interstate club and Tex my favorite non MFC leader. No longer - wasn’t Tex ranked amongst the bottom level for effectiveness in the GF. I was waiting for his leadership after half time but it never appeared. Flat track bullies?
