What position does Scott play?

With a name like that @Loose Men Everywhere, they would totally belong in the read and blue and would be a top 10 pick.

100 percent all of the above. And you are right @BoBo, the above is brief. But does attempt to deal with the phenomena at a high level. To support the above observations, research confirms that: about 1 percent of the general population are psychopathic this figure rises to 3.9 percent in the workplace population most of the psychopaths in the workplace are in senior management positions. The AFL employs around 2000 people. That means about three (3) in every club on average (allowing a percentage at head office as well). If we were to include the media, the figures would zoom up exponentially I would have thought.

Top post @dino rover. There is a significant body of research supporting the Dunning-Kruger effect, which describes how individuals with low ability in a particular domain often overestimate their competence. Recent studies delve deeper into this phenomenon, suggesting that the most dangerous person in any organisation may be the one who is both incompetent and unaware of their incompetence. This combination can lead to overconfidence, poor decision-making, and an inability to recognize or correct errors, potentially causing significant harm to the organisation and its stakeholders.

I believe we need a review I have reviewed the Club over the last three weeks I recommend a review.

How did the women's side go?

I was the assistant manager of Coles New World in Croyden back in the '80s @hardtack.

Tom relieves himself way too often for my liking.

I recon we should all kid ourselves - even just for one night @Demons11. It's been an intense fortnight.

Canberra—just like this thread. Endless debates that go absolutely nowhere!

Actually I just realised there's nothing to worry about @KLV. I've just heard a rumor that the Bears are after JVR and putting up that big game player Hipwood as the trade bait.

What’s that clicking and clacking echoing through the high-rises on Collins Street tonight? Oh, nothing to worry about . . . Just the lawyers orchestrating their symphony of billable hours.

In all seriousness, you can't be serious?

Yeah - just like that useless Sidebottom and Dangerfield. Fancy building a team around them to push towards a flag.

Reminds me of the "robust, full and frank exchanges" we used to have in the right wing factional meeting of the Queanbeyan branch of the Labor party. It was the second Monday of the month in the basement of the Queanbeyan Library. Someone generally left with a broken nose.

What am I to do with the 40 hours just freed up next week?

10 years on and he's my favourite player in the comp outside of the Deez. Love him to bits. if he was with us in '23, we win the flag.

I wonder if Goody would vote for Grundy?

Can we please subpoena the phone records of all interested parties since the assault on Trac's life and determine who called who when? Second, ask for the phone tap records from ASIO.

Wow - didn't know that. Pretty much explains everything.

Melbourne’s been a CF for 3 years because we've perfected the art of self-sabotage. It’s like we’re running a masterclass on how to take a premiership window, throw in a cocktail of egos, injuries, and baffling decisions, and turn it into a dumpster fire that somehow keeps finding new fuel. If there were a trophy for blowing golden opportunities, we’d be three-peat champions by now.

Melbourne Football Club: A Critical Reflection on Recent Turmoil It’s astonishing to see the level of confusion and misplaced blame being directed externally when the reality is much closer to home. The narrative that the Melbourne Football Club (MFC) is a victim of media scrutiny or some external vendetta fails to acknowledge the undeniable truth: we’ve been feeding this beast for at least the last 12 months. Now, as one of the biggest stories in the history of the game unfolds, once again, the Dees find themselves at the centre of it. Self-Inflicted Wounds There’s no escaping the fact that much of the chaos surrounding the club is of our own making. The dysfunction within the club, which has been an open secret for some time, has led us to this point. While the premiership win in 2021 and subsequent top-four finishes in 2022 and 2023 gave us a temporary reprieve, they also allowed underlying issues to fester unnoticed. Unfortunately, the goodwill generated by these achievements has now evaporated, leaving us exposed. The Media’s Role vs. Our Responsibility It’s easy to point fingers at the media, claiming they’re complicit or exacerbating the situation. However, this deflection only serves to distract from the internal issues that are the real culprits. The truth is, we’ve been getting away with far too much for far too long. The media is merely amplifying the chaos we’ve sown, and we must accept responsibility for our part in this mess. A Star Fading into Darkness The star that once shone so brightly in 2021 has faded into the vast reaches of the cosmos. The optimism and hope that followed our premiership win have been replaced with disappointment and frustration. Instead of building on our success, we’ve allowed dysfunction to creep in and undermine everything we’ve achieved. It’s a bitter pill to swallow, but we deserve much of the criticism coming our way. The Final Straw: Leadership and Accountability And then there’s Kate. Her actions yesterday, whatever they may have been, seem to have poured another gallon of petrol on an already raging fire. The situation has escalated from a mere “dumpster fire” to a full-blown catastrophe. Leadership is about more than just guiding a team on the field; it’s about steering the entire club in the right direction, especially in times of crisis. Unfortunately, it seems we’ve lost our way. Moving Forward: What Needs to Change The MFC needs to take a long, hard look in the mirror. Blaming external forces won’t fix what’s broken within. We must address the dysfunction, enforce accountability at all levels, and rebuild the trust and unity that once defined us. It won’t be easy, but it’s the only path forward if we hope to restore the pride and integrity of this club. In conclusion, while the flames of controversy burn bright around us, we must remember that we are the ones who set the fire. It’s time to stop playing the victim and start taking responsibility for our actions. Only then can we hope to extinguish the flames and rise from the ashes stronger than before.

Why does everyone keep bringing up the 20 goal loss?

Appreciate your commitment @Skuit. Means I can do some paid work this morning. My employer passes on their thanks as well.
