Kids the best player we got.

Time to go Goody?
Couldn't agree more. Well I could if you added the overrated Salem and his "elite" 20m lollipop passes. 100% should still have Jordan who he didn't even manage to sub onto the ground during the GF and Bedford who also only managed sub games. Enticed Grundy to the club and then gave up on him after about 3 games. Treated all 3 players like garbage.

Time to go Goody?
I don't care what anyone says. Goodwins gotta go. Every pre-season he tells us we're gonna play differently and every year we dish up the same god awful garbage. It's his list he's assembled who cannot hit a target if their life depended on it and his game plan that is just horrendous to watch. Keep him and we'll die a slow agonising death as a club. He's a one trick pony and his pony is dead.

Barrassi, Pagan & Malthouse off the top of my head. Different clubs tho'.

How long do we have to keep watching this garbage. Till the club has withered and died a slow death. Sack Goodwin tomorrow.

NON-MFC: Round 01
Need to remember we're also in the entertainment business. You aint gonna inspire many kids to support Melbourne if we're boring them to tears. As I stated earlier, same with getting primetime games, bums on seats and selling memberships. Big picture stuff.

NON-MFC: Round 01
May kicks out to left flank to Gawn which results in a ball up. Ball finds it's way rugby maul style till we get a man open at half forward. Wait till forward line is choked full of players and then put it on Gawns head in left forward pocket. Scramble around, snap shot from boundary line surrounded by opposition ... Point. Repeat. I also remember one of the players after the ANZAC eve game stating on TV in '22 that we aim to make the blockbusters as boring as they could after slowly choking richmond to death. Another game Kozzie Picket was asked about our suffocating game plan, his reply "It's all about defence really." And Goodwin KPI for all games was to keep the opposition under 60pts. Problem was we only needed to kick 61pts ourselves. I dunno who the hell you been watchin'.

NON-MFC: Round 01
And that's how you put bums on seats, get primetime free to air games and sell memberships. Something that's completely lost on Goodwin and co. We've wasted most of our window playing boring defensive uninspiring footy.

NON-MFC: Round 01
Was demonstrated at a wedding I attended once. The brides family was all Essendon and the grooms all Collingwood. At the reception a Collingwood/Essendon chant started up with both families trying to drown each other out. Gotta say the Collingwood side looked as they were straight out've the movie Deliverance. And I sheet you not the MC was an actual clown, make-up, clown suit, the works. How apt.

NON-MFC: Round 01
Forget Carlton. I only watched the highlights but can see their small forwards absolutely terrorising our backline. And I've never seen a collection of "Look a' moi" posers in all my life.

I hope you're right.

NON-MFC: Round 01
100% Both supporter bases are interchangeable nuffies. Collingwood are special tho'. Went to Victoria Park once. Walking up to the gate I had a retarded bloke in a black'n white wheelchair tell us to "Fork off Melbourne." while flipping the weirdest bird I'd ever seen. For a kid raised at the MCG I was flabbergasted. Then had to watch 'em overrun a 27pt 3/4 time lead. I thought the Zulus we're comin'.

NON-MFC: Round 01
I'm surprised coaches don't put a stop to celebrations like it due to injury risks TBH. Remember Roos ripped Petracca a new one for doin' his ankle playin' basketball.

NON-MFC: Round 01
I'm torn. Wish Ooze all the best and Richmond all the worst. It's complicated.

Half Baked Ideas
I actually think this is a thing. Maybe not a big thing but a thing never the less. What I'd really like is an exciting brand of footy. No [censored] they bore me to tears mostly with the odd flash of entertainment.

Fair call. All those big money guns we got salary capped for hardly got on the ground.- Trac’s Pep Talk & Belief in Dees Resurgence
I always felt Troy Broadbridge was the missing piece in Danihers premiership puzzle. Spent years looking for a good CHB and when he found him we lost him.- Trac’s Pep Talk & Belief in Dees Resurgence
Sadly no. I had an evil step mother who seemed to take joy in throwing my stuff out without telling me. Also lost 3 full sets of Stanlans footy cards from the late 70's early 80's. A scrap book and autograph book from the same era. Full sets of both Star Wars and KISS cards too. Highly annoying woman to this very day. - Trac’s Pep Talk & Belief in Dees Resurgence
