I've run out of tissues and made a mess

Sure if they'd come. I'll prob get blasted for this comment, but I reckon bring shane tuck across for a year. Can't get a game with the Tigers. Clearance machine, mature body. With our forward line next year, clearances and long bombs into the fwd line will be great for us.

I think Craig has done two great things already. Changing the training times. Not allowing the guys to wear skins to training Simulating game situations in conditions that you will normally play in is just common sense. Simulating game situations in the same gear as you would normally play in is also common sense.

Just announced at the presidents dinner.

Gut feel: Roos is a done deal, just finer details. He's going to wait as long as possible before accepting so his son can focus on his studies. If he accepted it now, the media comes more onto him and the family, and it would most likely moving to Melb full time straight away. I doubt a decision will be made until last few rounds of the season if not the end of the season. Just what my gut is telling me.

I recall several similar posts about Neeld when he came on board. "breath of fresh air", "tells it like it is", "no [censored]"

Well there you go....leave the country for work and check up on Demonland on the Thursday and find out Neeld's been sacked. The 14 pages of comments have been some great reading...and time wasting at work :D TBH reckon any of Roos, Eade or Choco will be great for the club. You get instant credibility that you don't need to earn if you're an untried coach. You get instant experience at different clubs as a head coach. And with the crap that has gone on, you'd hope you get instant buy in from the players.

Gary Ablett. That is all.

186 was the best 186 point loss I've ever seen

Wow. I worry more for Jack Trengove's confidence now...

Won't happen.

Because Dave Misson is too good at his job

Man, I reckon Howe is gonna have to upgrade his garage by the end of his career. Gonna have too many cars.

So have crunched the entries as I was overseas for the first 2 rounds. 8 people got 18 of the starting 22. Of those 8, 2 people had 3 of the starting bench players. Of those 2, none got the sub. But the person that got closest to Melbourne's final score was..... 1982 All-Stars! Congrats!

Small steps I say. Round 1: 15 minutes of competitive football. Round 2: 20 minutes of competitive football. Round 3: 60 minutes of competitive football. Round 4: lets aim for 3/4 of competitive football.

Move the target!

I'm keen again. Can't remember my score exactly. But finished top 5K.

Joel Mac was worse.

Just rings of a Daniel Bell situation.

Getting Misson to the club will be identified as one of the most significant hirings this club has made in the last 20 years.

Surely this is a poll. We're simply not "counting" the responses

I've got a better KPI. Score more points than the opposition on the day, and the points for and against take care of themselves.

Best. Bumped. Thread. Ever.

Agree. Too many "cooks" in the kitchen. Assign too many people the same responsibility, no one is responsible.

Hi, Just got a phone call from the club asking me whether I'd be interested in joining the Future Fund Business Group as I expressed an interest in getting more involved. Any current members around? I'd love to hear a bit more about it before I make the decision on whether to commit or not. Feel free to PM me, or post on here.
