  1. I would have to say no. Would be getting old now and would like to see the money go to Beams or Boak.
  2. Some great things there mate.The best thing of all for me is that Mark Neeld has had a good chance to see this list up close and now will come in and clean this list up. Im looking forward to seeing mark neeld's list next year.
  3. The dogs will not finish below us they are 3 games clear.They will win another game and so will port this weekend. GWS and GCS play again. We are a lock for 18th,17th or 16th. Not that i like it but we are not close to even port.
  4. I think he is pretty fit now his back playing in the TAC cup not AFL level but thats the same for all these kids coming through.I think 12 to 16 games in a first year is great for any first year player. His body is very strong for a young man and will be a very strong man in 3 years time. Well worth a good look. Could be the star we are looking for and will not have to listen to the fans saying why are we getting all these skinny kids.
  5. No way we will finish above port they are 2 games clear and they will probley beat us anyway.
  6. He is one of my mates cousin and is by all reports a gun.He would also be the number 1 draft pick if he did not break his leg. This kid would well and truely be worth the risk at pick 4 after Toumpas. I hope we take the kid he would be ready to go day 1 with his body.
  7. Hello is this a MFC fan website?
  8. How about we just have jones made captain nextyear along side Trengove and Grimes. I would have no problem if Mark Neeld said Jones should be Captain also. Sydney have 2 or 3 captains and there going o.k. As for talk of taking the title from Trengove thats just crap. The kid is very much who the players voted to lead them and will be like a fine wine as captain. He will just get better with age.
  9. Has this got a virus it keeps popping up on my desktop nonstop Anyone else had a problem? I open the page then shut the page and it just keeps on coming back up over and over. Maybe my computor is sick
  10. This guy was my hero in high school he had some great skills. 2000 finals vs carlton wow. All the best cam
  11. We must get this years draft picks right. I think T.Viney will do a great job in picking the right type of players. He would have seen alot of these kids coming through the ranks with his boy.
  12. I think he was o.k on the weekend but he has been running so slow this year and is so important going forward that i just think if any game we should rest him it's the Darwin game. The kid has had a tuff year and really needs to be looked after Just IMO
  13. Just an Example because he has a great kick
  14. This all comes back to Footy smarts it is something that will come in time. You could be a great kick(Tapscott) but make the wrong play. Example: Tapscott kicks long down the line to get it forward to Green but he is coverd by 2 Freo players.(wrong play) Sometimes you need go backwards to go forward Tapscott kicks to Grimes all by himself in the backline and opens up the other side of the ground. You get your fast mids or forwards running to space like a bail who can make the space very quickley and is a higher % of not turning the ball over.(Right play) The problem is that at the moment our skills and footy smarts are well below AFL standard. The point is you can be the best kick in the game but you must also have the footy smarts to make the right call. The hawks are great at this. Im sure Mark Neelds footy college is working very hard on this.
  15. What the?
  16. I think port is playing better football then MFC and will win simply because they are better. No need to talk about the T word or Viney cup we are a good chance to finish below GCS & GWS after there win. I just want to see players like Gysberts,Jetta,Cook get a run so Neeld gets a good look at the full squad going forward. IN: Cook,Gysberts,Jetta,Watts,Fitz OUT: Jamar,Grimes,Bennel,Trengove(rest inj),Bate Jones ©
  17. He was asked the question about jack and just used it as a time to get the messege out that we are not going to be pushed into picking Viney at pick 1,2 or 3.
  18. I think your missing the point Moonshadow it's nothing about swabb telling the footy dep what to do it's cam swabb selling fear to GWS and GCS that if they bid on viney dont think we will roll over and pay overs for a kid who is not rated pick 1 or 2.He is doing what you would want your club to do and that is letting GWS know that it's not as simple as we will just dummy bid to screw MFC over and for that we the members should be happy his doing his job
  19. Yes footy is a funny game sometimes.I am a very passionate fan and sometimes the heat of battle gets the better of me. When i really sit back and look at things with a clear head it's easy to see the future of this club going forward. We were always going to struggle with such a great shift in change. The bad luck with injuries and form has not helped our cause in 2012. But if you look at the year of players like Clark(wow),Jones,Mcdonald,Howe,Rivers,Watts it's easy to see these guy's have really grown under Neeld. Also with the draft this year we are in a position to really build on the foundation Neeld has put together. Names like Toumpas,Viney,Stringer,Grundy,Whitfield,Simpson,Wines we could throw 3 or 4 of these names into our list in 2013 and all of a sudden our midfield looks strong. Trengove and Grimes have a full season under there belt as Captain and just keep growing. Lets also say that our boy Jack watts is starting to really belong at AFL level and is growing into a great prospect. Then there is Jurruh who has had a really hard year that can come in and just inject some real fire into our forward line again. Every fan has been tested through 2012 but i really believe this club has finally started to build a bright future.
  20. I dont think you watch the game last week against Richmond if you think that was good we are in trouble. How are we kidding ourself he has done very little since coming to the club and maybe averged 6 touches a game.He has done sweet f all and is in alot of danger IMO. All the best with the knee mate but i fear he might not get another chance.
  21. Great news and with GC getting there first win this week and the dees still only on 2 wins there is still a great chance MFC will finish below GWS or GC.Not that i like not winning but with the rest of the year being a training run no one will know were the picks will fall we could very well finish 18th or 17th. This draft is shaping as the most important draft in the history of this club. We are in need of the best Midfield players going forward so if we Have a chance to land Grundy we would be silly not to have a real good look. I class ruckmen as apart of the Midfield and add to that 3 good mids in Toumpas,Viney and pick 12 Vlastin When november comes around there is going to be some really good high end talent thrown into the mix at the MFC. Cam Swabb said on Triple M that we will not take Viney if GWS over rate him.(Well done Cam) we will take him in the second round IMO. Once we have another year under Neeld and co and a fit squad of Trengove,Blease,Jurruh,Clark,Davey,Sylvia,Watts,Gawn,Jamar,Gysberts and add to that a good trade or 2 and Grundy,Tompas,Viney and Vlastin the MFC will turn around alot quicker then may fans might think. This is also what Cam Swabb said yesterday that when asked when will the club play finals again. He said that our team will turn around alot quicker then the so called experts might think. There has been a big change at this club in 2012 and at times it's bloody hard to watch. But please dees fans give the new footy department time to show the bigger picture which is in place right now. The MFC has spent big money in recent times so we have the best chance to compete with all the clubs in the AFL Neeld,Mission,Craig are very good at what they do. 2013 will be the start of the rise of the MFC so hold on sit back and enjoy the ride. GO DEES
  22. I think stef is the better ruckman IMO just because of the second efforts in the middle. He also has alot better run getting to and from the next contest. Jamar is also a good ruckman when in form. You need 3 or 4 ruckmen in your team so i think both Stef and Russian are required players. The big russian is the type of player we need around the younger leaders going forward also. They can have spencer
  23. I just hate this crap about good 3 quarters. We were all over freo today. But i just know that we are not going to win all day. That just means our side is weak. and dont know how to win. Well done to stef Martin. Very sad again
  24. What a weak man? He is the bastard who hits you when your not looking then runs when your still standing. The worst sniper in our game today. His day will come.
