Sounds like another Buddy. Just imagine our forward line with Clarke & Fitzy both who are 200cm and Hogan alongside, then Jones Howe, Viney & Blease feeding them? A few of our small forwards at their feet...swoon! Delicous thoughts Where do we sign!

I will die a demon! Regardless of how many games I can get to I will always support them via my membership. What might be conditional for me is my support for Aussie Rules footy itself. Its all the rubbish that comes from the MRP, the control freak mentality of the AFL and the moronic media that is doing my head in. But I will die a demon.

Yes, this thread is out of whack! A thinly veiled attempt to attack Neeld without the courage to come out and say it! Is this the work of an insomniatic troll!

These words just gave me a horrid sense of deja vu: Daren Jolly! Hope we know what we are doing letting Martin go.

...and Mark Neeld!!

Two wrongs don't make a right...

At this rate you should change your name to Ballantyne The Serial Pest! Please go away!!

Especially the way he described Liam Jurrah's predicament. He spoke with warmth and great empathy and I feel better now about the circumstances in which Liam left the MFC.

Hope it is soon...cringed when I saw another Jack Viney draft thread.

Two things from the cartoon that seem to fit our coach: 1. Daph has Mark Neeld eyes! 2. We are in for one hell of a ride...can't wait!

Looks like more of the now 'senior' players are buying into the Neeld way! Great of Aaron to set an example by taking leave instead of injury time to have a longer preseason = committment + good attitude. Wish him well with it all.

Totally agree with post. Neeld is Lyon Mark 11 - Focused, uncompromising, demanding, thorough - just what we need!

Hope is what always brings me back each footy year. The finals this year are just awesome. Look forward to when we get there.

While watching these games I could only marvel at the intensity and skill... ....then wondered that even if we make the finals in the next few years how long before we actually win one...4 or 5 years maybe..I shudder at the thought...obviously the dark clouds are hovering this morning

why should they be 'name' players...Sydney and Richmond have done very well with hard working, right attitude types...As Barassi said talent will get you into the AFL...its what you do with the talent that counts

Thanks for coming on to DL Rudeboy. As always your comments offer insight and understanding on what is really going on with Liam. Best wishes to him and his family.

Well said WJ...as I read this I thought it is exactly what Jim Stynes would say and it resonates of his spirit.

Interesting that Rudeboy has not appeared on DL. In the past he has always come on and given us some insight and understanding which has been much appreciated. Feel a bit let down by Rudeboy as well...me thinks his silence on DL 'speaks volumes'! BTW we don't need him to feel sorry for us! How condescending!!

he who shall not be named!

This line looks like it has been wordsmithed by the AFL rather than the MFC

Rather odd that the Club met with Liam 'tonight'. The news broke on the airwaves at around 3.30 this afternoon. Does that mean he didn't personally tell the Club...pretty low if that is the case!

Hey Rudeboy...are you out there? We are hurting...why did Liam just up and walk out on us? We know he had to go but why didn't he take a more conventional approach. Even if he didn't like the new football regime, surely the MFC itself has earnt his respect.

err...Dean is at Adelaide...

Very true...poor form for Port to issue their statement prior to the MFC confirming journo story...unless Jurrah's manager has already sounded out the PAFC!

SEN have just announced that Jurrah has quit the Dees...a very sad day.
