  1. This is the nub of the issue Standard training facilities are quickly becoming.. Two ovals, gym, pool and large undercover area With co-located admin, video review facilities,medical rooms etc. Just not seeing an MFC plan that will get us anywhere near these levels in the next 20 years
  2. Good to see some debate about where a VFL team fits in. Frankly I wonder myself what is its role
  3. So we could be playing Brisbane in the VFL prelim
  4. Didn't know that the cap for stand alone teams was so low. Goes a way to explain why they aren't the force in Victoria they once were. I assume Southport Sharks have less competition for local talent
  5. Bedford had a "nearly" spectacular game A bounce here, a few more inches there and we would be singing his praises. Aussie Rules can be a tough game Don't think our boundary line game favours his style. Needs more room to use his speed to run onto the ball
  6. South Port Sharks have an old style man mountain as their ruckman. Will be interesting to see Weideman up against him if the teams meet in the GF
  7. Needs to impose a little more around the ground Rucking alone is not enough in the AFL
  8. Great play by Chandler
  9. Strange team Casey 50 point win but once again no one really starring in a pushing for selection sense
  10. Oh Bedford !!
  11. Love Mitch Brown but.... I would like a mark or two from TMac or Smith
  12. JVR !!!!
  13. Clutch reply by Dunstan Mc Donald looking a little lost... perhaps the game is too crowded for his style
  14. Not a great start
  15. Too slow on the transition from defence and way too many high dump kicks into the forward line. Add in bad inaccuracy (Swans have also missed some easy ones) Have we had a switch of play all day
  16. Way too much handball
  17. Another miss (JVR)
  18. Terrible handball by Smith to Bedford Smith was free while Bedford had two on him.Should have waited until the players came off Bedford and onto him before releasing the handball
  19. Probably should have been another two goals up. Lucky goal to TMac after the strange ruck infringement
  20. Looking forward to reports 7plus has blocked my VPN and it doesn't seem to be on the AFL site
  21. You mean Kev has been hijacking closed training sessions ?
  22. IF we win the big one will it be cheese boards and hipster food trucks at Gosch's or can we talk the MCC in to letting us into our home ground.
  23. BBO sounds like you may not have visited our palace of pain at Casey Fields. Bar = shed selling cans They only open the shed on the far wing on big days
  24. Other than Dunstan there's no genuine mid from the MFC playing at Casey not to mention a ruckmen. Given the age and quality of the MFC senior midfield one can understand this but it's only a few years ago that most on this Board used to say you can't go wrong drafting a mid fielder
  25. If Collingwood can do this deal for $300k and get back a late first rounder .......... speechless 300k is the price of a player bordering on the lower end of a clubs bottom 6 of best 22 I assume the Magpie forums are full of how Brodie will do the right thing for the club and go where the Pies can get the best deal
