48 Year Now

Little girls should be able to dream of being Kate Hore?

Who is stopping them? Quite frankly I wouldnt want my grandchildren playing either at elite level. Too much control of your body, long term injuries, public scrutiny and all tbe rest. I lived next door to elite sportwoman and they were the most up themselves unfriendly girls you would ever meet. Dont know if it was because of the stress of it all or the fact they tbought they were special

A cynic might say we are not prepared to experiment as selecting the same team will give us a win and coach and sundry we showed spirit after our defeat last year while having their eye firmly on the where we finish for next years membership and advertising

Every one wins a prize at the MFC.

Yes, could be

Sparrow out?

Very happy with Culley debut

Yes, attendances dont match the resources the AFL and our club put into the game. True on 50 years for crivket. I went to an Ashes game played in Bulleen in the late 60s. It always had players of standard.

Absolutely correct. And its giving Geelong an advantage as maybe his intervention keeps him on tve park where he otherwise out of action like other players with mental illness. It was the old school tie network at play. Smith s dad and the AFL boss.

Thanks, i just think fans will tolerate lots of tbings including lack of ability, frees against, poor kicking and big losses and still stay invested, but Sunday was something else again. Like the perfect storm to expose our cracks. Remember the famous , John Kennedy line, just do something. All i saw at the end was Max rise and tap down Olivers thoat only for him to fumble.

Paul Guerra is already comprimised. He and Goody having regular walk and talk sessions. Dont hold your breath for Guerra to make change without being pushed.

No one has ever suggested we go all youth. In good faith? Please explain what that means and when it became a club objective to selection. Tge evidence just does not support what you are saying.

I would make Lever Captain. Clearly our best leader . Trade Salem Sparrow Trac Spargo if any value. McVee

Well said. I doslike the music but considered if others like it. Tge only ones who appear to get involved are a sprinking of kids who have some pre prepared dance moves hoping to get on the big screen.

How so? I havent seen one post about old men complaining about women playing football

Is that so important when you are not going to make finals and need to look at youth for the future?

Imagine is side was chosen without fear or favour.

I wonder if the last quarter has really sunk in to our supporters. Particularly to the younger ones. To put in perspective Ive watched games since 67, decades of lean years with even leaner talent. Some barely Modern VFL standard and yet that is our worst last quarter effort ive seen. Wow.

Brilliantly said.

Yeah, i get yours too. I couldnt give a damm about having a womens team when we dont even have a home base. Nor does 90 per cent of our supporters - fact, based on game attendances .

The looks on some of their faces broke my heart, especially the young boys. Yeah, i read pretty good. Young boy- male child , someone who is not yet an adult. Broke my heart- to cause someone great sorrow.

Self explanatory. MFC future is about the success of the Mens team.

Smith is 70 and saw no urgency to start the job. Guerra , ive heard many times on radio, unimpressive. Motherhood statements . Sounds just like Pert,get the club a home base , success for womens team to appease AFL. Go back and see his first interview.

Um, unluckiest people on the planet?

With respect i think you should have a look around the city and find some young people who are really struggling. That breaks my hesrt not men, who you call boys on multi $$$ deals playing professional sport . Here is the situation AFL introduces a 666 We do not have a defensive set up / structure to defend against it. Likewise we do not have an offencive set up to score from it when it favours us. St Kilda did. And you dont think that is important.
