Cranky Franky

I think BG inherited a mess & did a decent job in the circumstances.

The ACB & the Test Selectors should be sacked for incompetence. Ditto the MFC Board (except Brad Green) & the whole Football Dpt starting from the coach. (Should have happened 12 months earlier).

Daniher crash & bash ??? In your dreams. Next you'll tell us Hipwood was a crash & bash or maybe Ben Brown

Sorry but your comments on Jefferson make no sense. Unskilled crash & bash forwards went out of the game more than 20 years ago. The last however many flags have been won by quick ball movement & precise delivery.

Think you are 20 years out of date with pack splitters. We need to deliver the ball forward accurately & stop turning it over with hack disposals. This has been our MO for the last 4 years.

Yes but Andrews is the better bowler.

If you can't take criticism then don't post. There is no logic to "a role player who worked his butt off & sacrificed for the team" covers most players & you are comparing a virtually untried forward ruckman to a veteran defender/wingman. Only similarity is their baldness. You may as well have compared Bill Laurie to Harris Andrews.

Im sure 2026 will bring: Unabashed love & positivity for all things MFC from Ghosty More lugubrious quizzes from Demonstone Absurdly positive assessments about players who haven't achieved anything Civil War on Demonland if we start the season off badly Much weeping & gnashing of teeth if Clarry does well

Sorry but that's a silly comparison. 5 senior games v 200+ games & 2 premierships

When Clarry jags 2 Brownlow medals or even 1 then get back to me.

the coach turned his back on one of our greatest EVER! Oh yeah there is the fallacy right there! Too hard basket but didn't even give it a shot! Case closed! Best ever !! In your dreams - not even in the top 5. - see Warne-Smith, Smith Barassi, Flower, Lyon. The game has moved on drastically. Clarry has woeful disposal. A turnover merchant, can't mark & can't kick goals. And costs the Club endless resources to keep him on the rails. Good riddance.

Dolts on Demonland !!😱😱 Surely that's fake news

Its a time honoured Demonland tradition to conflate modest potential into absurd hubris. I see AMW who is yet to establish himself as a regular already touted by some as "a lock down" & "a future gun". Similarly Kentfield has been hyped as the new David Neitz despite achieving SFA so far. Just the usual clueless Demonland BS.

Yes great endeavour & aggression but too short to play ruck & lacks the skills to hold down a key position. Maybe could play as a foil to other forwards a la Cam Petersen.

Good on Pedo. One of my favourites. Darwin Buffs is my old Club from the 1980's, home of Matty Whelan & Andrew McLeod & many Top End champions. He will struggle with the humidity until he acclimatises. Hope he does well.

Agree he showed promise in 2024. He made some errors but showed dash & was prepared to take the game on. If he can tidy up a few areas he could be a very handy player.

Scott Chisholm for Jason Norrish & Troy Longmuir

Just love Viney but his contract extension was one of our dumbest ever decisions & it seemed to happen because at the time the Brains Trust (sic) was desperate for good news PR.

Thanks for the training reports everyone. The foot injuries are concerning.

Heeee's baaaaack🙀🙀

Love Turner but he should have got a 3 year deal only. Long deals are killing Clubs like ours ie Goodwin, Gus, Clarry - strewth even Laurie got an absurdly long deal.

Well I'm not surprised. Dunstall is about 60 and Jesus doesn't exist.

Definitely for renewal. Bring on Rivers & Chandler
