I hope that we get more members but the trouble is if you get 70000 members and they turn up, then you have to buy a reserved seat as well to gain admittance. West Coast has a waiting list for their Membership.

i can’t see us getting 70000 members without sustained success. Maybe 50 - 55000 at a push this year.

May and Lever are both A graders. Watch their attack on the ball and their intercept marking and it is obvious.

Sometimes you have to give up a lot in a trade to get in players who will transform a culture. Goodwin was a great team man at Adelaide. He has decided that May and Lever bring those qualities too, which is why MFC gave up so much to get them. 

But Cornes doesn’t Like Crows, past or present!

I think Cornes has a personal animosity towards Goodwin.

If the draft is compromised next year, then adding Bennell for 2021 may be a solid move!

I think it might encourage other star players to come to us because I think it shows that we are a club who are willing to give a player another chance.

I am starting to wonder if we should take Fisher Macasey and Caleb Serong. MaCasey is a tall forward and Serong is a Midfield/Forward. Wouldn’t those 2 meet our needs best?

Voted for Serong and Weightman. We need goal kickers ASAP.

I thought Adelaide were going to nominate Green and that is why GWS want our pick 3?

Well I like the word ‘bespoke’. Should I apologise for being different?

Perhaps this is slightly off topic, but does anyone else hate the word "bespoke" ?

No, they denote a standard of dress, that is sadly lacking amongst many of the population of this fair city.

Are we going to take Serong at 3 and then a forward at 26? There are at least 3 possible choices at 26: Miles Bergman, Cameron Taheny or Dylan Williams. Any thoughts from others?

He was dropped after kicking 9 goals in 3 games on two seperate occasions. Rumours around him leaking stories to the media and some kind of verbal fight with Pyke would explain being dropped while in form. The club is a rabble.

That rabble finished above us on the ladder!

Totally about Ratten. Would love him as our coach. One of the 3 most charismatic coaches in the league. IMO.

Wasn’t he delisted? No deal would be necessary, other than agreeing terms with the player.

I think some people are missing the point. MFC pays market value for its players. That way the players can choose to leave if they value money over playing for our club. If Hawthorn want to pay more than Frost may be worth then so be it. He is no Lever or May. Every player needs to earn big contracts.

So glad I am in Paris and can’t access the game without paying for it. Sounds like a fizzer. I hate Richmond and could not bear to see them winning in a GF.

Grew up playing rugby. No wonder, he is not soft, like so many other AFL players are.

At least he has mongrel, unlike many of our players!

May still end up being our Senior Coach in 3 years.

Melbourne FC are screwed. Alan Richardson, Ed Langdon and whoever else will not right this ship. Guarantee that we won’t make a Grand Final until we have a Senior Coach like Alastair Clarkson.

Nothing gives me hope right now. Hopefully Alan Richardson amd a few new players may help, but no guarantees!

Brayshaw is simply untouchable. He is a solid tackler, has a great hip and shoulder and is damaging going forward. He also helps our spread when he is fit. Personally think this thread should be shut down. He could be our captain in a few years.

You can get leadership in young players too. You need to draft players like Sam Walsh who just take the game on straight away.
