They are both lawyers maybe, but is either of them going straight?

Maysie's taken his boogie board.

what was Errol's price at the beginning of the night?

WTF???

You're argument is flawed on a couple of levels @Wells 11. But the one I've highlighted takes the cake. I'd be interested in what the other 17 coaches, and heads of football, think of Goody.

You're a dead set minimiser @Clintosaurus. It was a bag of chips, a small diet coke and a stale wagon wheel.

What I've seen in recent years is a shed-load of 18 year olds ripping it up in their first year. Can't think of one player in the comp in the last 10 years who could be described as being played to early resulting in hindered development.

Good responses @Redleg. As I understand it, we also received a concession pick in 2008 that we spent on Sam Blease. We also received millions in financial assistance from the AFL to transition out of the Neeld ara. But I take your point.

My point is this @Mach5 . . . it's the raison d'etre of the AFL to protect the clubs from their own ineptitude. Unarguably, it's one of the main functions of the AFL, to ensure the welfare of all participating clubs.

Amazing the short memories of some posters on D'Land. Melbourne have been the recipients of VFL/AFL handouts on multiple occasions in the last 50 years. A strong argument can be put forth that we do not win in '21 without the most recent handouts. Furthermore, it's the raison d'etre of the AFL - to protect the clubs from their own ineptitude. Unarguably, it's one of the main functions of the AFL, to ensure the welfare of all participating clubs.

Carlscum won't make finals next year.

Hope he has better luck teaching Toranto how to kick than he had at Melbourne with Trac, Viney and Oliver.

Nothing is unchangeable at X.

The imagery of this with respect to Gawndy had destroyed my day.

Campbell's father was a th%g and Campbell was a th&g. Both went after ball players. Nuff said.

Langdon was in our best half a dozen players six dayz ago.

He'd fit in perfectly at Tigers or Dons!!!

Couldn't agree more @John Demonic. It's a seller's market I recon. (If the Filth are rolled in the next few weeks, they might want Grundy back.)

They'd be in the first 12 picked at at least six clubs.

Silvagni was recontacted a few weeks ago.

Let's say harry McKay is gettable - would you include McVee and Rivers in a trade?

Silly to think Maysie would do anything dumb.

I don't always agree with you @ElDiablo14, but you might be spot on here. We might have to think seriously about giving something substantial up in order that we get something substantial in. I recon there are six blokes that are untouchable - the rest, for the right price, are dispensable.

HTF AA selectors determine that Weitering is a better player than May is beyond a joke

Definition of the football department at the MFC: Goodwin – senior coach Richardson – GM of AFL Football Performance Yze – midfield coach Chaplin – backline coach Stafford – forward line coach Williams – head of development Whitford – VFL senior coach Radford - opposition strategy and education Can someone who has real world knowledge and practical experience in such an environment please explain, in practice, how does a football department actually work? For example: What does the FD do during pre-season as a group? What does the FD do during a ‘normal’ week as a group during the season? How do the backline, midfield and forward line coaches work, in an integrative manner, during the year and on gameday? How is information passed between these coaches and then onto the players? Who reports to who? Who is in charge during the game of making moves and adjusting strategy and tactics? What does Simon actually do?
