Jordie_tackles

Weeks 1-3 MFC thinking about the process Weeks 3-5 Clarkson offered Huge deal in media Weeks 5-6 Lyon offered huge deal through the media ect Weeks 6-7 Neeld???? *current Weeks 7-8 Burns???? * next week Week 9 *Grand final over???? just seems played out and nobody has any real clue to me

Lets all be honest, we can only speculate on what we are being fed.... 2 days ago its was Ross Lyon Last night Barrett and Thomas reported it was going to be Burns and Craig combo Today it is Neeld being close to signing ect.... Who is left? is this more smoke and mirrors or not, seems that nothing has been leaked form MFC so far, well nothing that they didnt want to be leaked, i am really at the stage where i can talk about all this and say this and that but until the club makes a statement i will not be banking a thing

this is another point, one which i have probably not wanted to contemplate

Neeld would probably be my favourite outside of Malthouse atm, close pegging with Burns but slightly ahead, I think he has a strong claim to the success of Collingwoods Defense and Midfield, and has been credited with much of Collingwoods "press" from what i can take in He is not a top line senior coach but i think he is pretty clearly "the best of the rest"

I was referring to this highlighted part

I beleive GWS have the choice, they accept what they want, as its players also how can you judge the "highest" bid..

It cam across to me as a confirmation we approached him

I couldnt take anything out of it tbh! Barrett said well Gary we need to ask about the Melbourne Situation, Barrett said this is what he had heard, using the term "front runner" for the job. Gary was pretty emotionless no grin ect, confirmed we asked about Lyon by *never* made an offer as his management said he was happy at Saints Gary said we were still going through our process and that nobody was a front runner in our eyes, and that we the MFC are more than satisfied with the direction which we are currently taking in this regard Said this because if he didnt say anything, Barrett ect would run with the story ala RL regardless obviously cant comment in detail about such topics on TFS

Damien Barrett said this exact same thing 2 minutes ago on TFS.

Adelaide were first

He had a "get out clause" And the St Kilda FC wernt meeting or satisfying is requirements in this

Latest word is an agreement was made upto 5 weeks ago, eg. prior to us approaching Lyon Maybe Gary new more about this due to our approach being rejected than the Saints President on Classified???

If anything comes out of this that we never contacted Ross Lyon....with the deal that was reported....then surly we would have stitched up MM??? Just a thought

SEN saying now that Ross Lyon has walked out on Saints.... waiting for confirmation that it is to Fremantle

SEN reporting Ross Lyon is officially the Fremantle Coach...wow 4 year deal

Im on season 2 episode 7... soo good

Breaking news - St Kilda making a statement eminently...wow Not necessarily saying he is off though but still

Some journo on SEN reporting that Freo sacked Harvey for " An offer to good to refuse" SEN guy says - Mathews, Malthouse, Roos? No but it leaves one other person....RL This is hectic

WOW! Surely, they can't top the 1M for 4 years? This makes things very interesting.

Add Darling to this list, i will guarantee you that all three would be drafted higher than they were in retrospect Butcher top 5 and the other 2 top 10

About halfway down is the lesser used version of this Campaign them message is even better if you ask me http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=870757

Mate Mathews is Mathews, he has done it all and is an all time great, im not saying Viney couldnt do it just that Mathews would be one of the most inspirational people in football And the "boys club" comment is more that i think the MFC needs a shake up, we need somebosy to drive us because the current ones havnt been working Also Viney didnt seem keen 4 weeks ago... do you want to Coach the MFC it isnta spur of the moment decision, you either want it or you dont, which Viney may

Agree with Robbie F and Others, We are lacking Quality mids, of the Ablett, Bartel and Kelly mould, simply we just dont have enough developing imo, Moloney Jones and Jordie are so one dimensional and dont hurt the opposition as much as the real A graders do, i dont see how these 3 can all fit into a premiership model team at the one time So we have Gysberts and Trengove and maybe Blease, then 2 of the 3 above and Bail as a tagger so 6 decent mids

More that you made it sound like any coach we get from now on will be put out by us having other preferences, and that it wont bother them in my opinion The last bit being a note about the ability of current first year coaches and that they arnt struggling Just general observations really

Chris Scott was rejected for the Port job i believe before he got the Cats job, the Best candidates, and Strongest personalities will eat this stuff up and spit it out (In our faces), they will tell us that we dodged a bullet and are lucky to get them. Also the *winning* thing is kinda an ironic personal joke, i understand it wouldnt be an ideal position to be in haha. 3 first year Coaches in finals this year, Hird, Longmuire and Scott, they can tbe that bad an option
