Makes us all Al-Anonics MR.

How about this Sue? The players are aware we have a problem winning games we are expected to win. Our performances last year in Cairns were unacceptable. With a finals position on the line against two sides below us on the ladder, we simply choked. Some fans have accused us of 'drinking our own bath water'. Based on those performances in crucial games, they are correct. We let ourselves down but most importantly, we disappointed our fans . . . again. And for that, I say, on behalf of the players, we're sorry. You, the fans, supporters and members are the lifeblood of the club and provide us with a lifestyle most people can only dream about. And we abused your trust, support and love. For that, on behalf of the players, I apologise. In 2021 we undertake to play a more accountable and disciplined style of game. This means further developing our individual strengths and minimising the influence our weaknesses have on the outcome of each game. For example, Jack Viney is committed to playing Aussie Rules each weekend, I'm gradually improving my goal kicking and hope to thread at least one per game this year and Maysie's target is to keep all the gorillas to two goals or less in each game he plays. All the players will be held accountable, both internally and externally, for their on field performances. To that end, Jack, Stephen and I will front the media each week, and on behalf of the players, answer for our performances as truthfully as possible.

We are no different to the racists at Collingwood or the exposed culture of entrenched sexism and misogyny on Capital Hill. Much of society, and by extension, the MFC, is completely blind, and contributing to, the normalisation of the abuse of women. This subtle but pervasive structurally embedded sexism is the personification of male power and control, which of course, is the root cause of gender inequality that manifests as domestic violence, rape, sexual exploitation, unequal pay and a plethora of other abuses. We are all implicated when we allow other people to be mistreated and patriarchal symbols such as the Australian Club are used to raise funds for our beloved club.

I cut my Friday night footy watching by 50 percent when Dennis Cometti finished calling that game each week. I'll now only watch Friday night if the Deez are playing, and only with the volume down. Bruce, at certain times toward the end of his career, became a parody (mostly of himself), but this shouldn't detract from the brilliant broadcaster he was for the vast majority of his career. And he helped revolutionise the analysis of the game for seven years (1995-2002) as host of the original Talking Footy. To this day, the benchmark in footy chat shows IMHO. Good on you Bruce, footy can only be watched now with the volume turned down . . . that's the greatest tribute of all my friend.

Outrageous, but somehow artsy, bordering of tolerable.

Good summation Brother.

I note the Pedo has somehow been omitted from all lists.

We should all be proud of the Club's announcement and receive the AFL's community award in 2021. Anything that keeps him away from Lulie Street it to be highly commended. On an equally serious note . . . My mate, who is mad Norf and understands the game, was amazed that Norf delisted him, not withstanding the injuries and other challenges Majak dealt with in 2020. His view was that Majak, when fit, was easily inside the club's best 22 players. He was appalled by Shaw's handling of him when coach (and I'm Shaw there's an untold story there as well). For all the reasons many have identified here, Majak:- can play anywhere, is well liked by teammates, is low budget impact, a good trainer, and happy to play in the ressies when the full list is available. My friend says his best position is off half back and we should plan to play May across half forward. Means the $850,000 man will have to rise to the occasion though. Can't say I see any downside considering the state of our list today. There would be a minimum of 30 AFL players running around in 2021 not as well credentialed as Majak IMHO.

With thinking like this Binman, you're in line for a seat on the Filth's board.

****mond did win a premiership with the best backman of his generation in the stands PF.

They both pay the same piper JD.

Will Tripplechins be the Republican nominee in 2024? He's showing all the right attributes.

No, it's not a typo LH. After scrutinising exactly what I wrote, and if one analyzes the data mathematically, it makes him a pretty good player. At a bear minimum, it puts him in the best 25 percent of players in the comp. And I suspect if one undertook further analysis of the raw data (e.g. the precise ranking of all his KPIs), he would probably be in the top 15-20 percent of players running around.

I'm not a huge Viney fan . . . so last year I thought I'd go and have a look at where he ranks in the league on all the important KPIs that the league measures for its players. Here's the news: Viney is in the top 200 players in the league on 80 percent of performance indicators. He's got his deficiencies and drives many of us mad at times, but there's not a club in the comp that wouldn't have him in their best 18. And he'd be in the best six players at at least six clubs, based on his KPIs, IMHO.

I wonder if the Club's sponsors will show any spine? Emirates CGU La Trobe Financial Nike PFD United Subway Heinz Carlton Draught Calabria Pure Storage Coca Cola Etc, etc, etc. . . .

I come to 'Land when I want sane, accurate, thoughtful and well articulated information on the Deez.

The Dorks versus Essenscum could be interesting. There's a strong chance one will loose by 10 goals. Imaging the angst.

Brilliant. Beat me to it by a couple of hours. Also saved me an hours worth of work. In fact I'd go so far as to say the last thing Melb want is for BBB to kick 100 goals in 2021. Almost guarantees we won't play in a granny, let alone win a flag.

Beeeeeeeeneeeeeeeeeeeeeeett!

Who takes over the mantle as the most sexist, misogynist, bigoted, arrogant, egotistical and ignorant industry figure now?

We should stop calling the coach 'the coach'. What does Goodwin actually do? Would love to see the position descriptions for the footy department staff.

Hogan, $cully and Watts are just misunderstood, Viney's disposal is good . . . his teammates just don't know where to run, Jackson is all potential, probably won't make it, Neeld should have been shifted into a head of coaching role, Daniher and Swooper under-achieved with rich talent and unlimited resources, I've got a soft spot for Eddie, Alan McAllister and Ranald MacDonald, Footscay's premiership wasn't a fluke, I'm really happy for GWS and the B#ms, The sooner Melbourne play more home games in the Territory the better, Collingwood should have beaten us in 1964 Granny.

As far as i know Dieter, Matthews has never made amends to Bruns, and Bruns can't stand the sight of him.
