Genuine question - I've never heard Oliver described as uncoachable. What's the background to that?

Surprise packet - Bedford, Baker or Lockhart. That's said in hope rather than in belief. Spud - Hunt, ANB, Melk, Tmac, Chandler, Harmes. It's a smorgasboard.

@Lord Nev 100% agree with your take. Goodes' being a proud black man confronted people and made them think of the uncomfortable truth. And we don't like the truth - that racism is alive and well in Australia. So rather than face the truth we deflect by saying it was about Goodes 'singaling out a teenager' or the fact he was a lair of a player. Same way people wanted to ignore what Hertier Lumumba had to say because he was a bit of w*nker.

Nope. I'm petty. I hate Gerard Healy for leaving in 1985, why should Scully be special? ? It's not the leaving that was the issue, it was the way it was done. When I resign from a job i have to front my boss and tell them I'm leaving. Scully should've afforded MFC the same respect.

Well done - Paxman is a star of the competition. Love her!

There is so much wrong with this post I don't know where to begin. Let's replay it It's not the creep who's sending unsolicited [censored] pics & videos of himself masturbating that is the problem. It's the women who have made it public who are the issue. How would you feel if someone randomly DMd you with a video of themselves having a [censored]? Would you be happy?

I’m tired of nuffs who think criticising the club is a crime

We are so frustrating and can't be trusted. It's not pleasant watching them, it's a chore. As a long time supporter I'm tired. Tired of not seeing them fulfil potential. Tired of seeing them drop games they should win. Tired of watching subpar skills. Tired of having [censored] Robbo as the game day hype man. Tired of seeing Trac, Clarry and Brayshaw not got back and take their time off the mark. Tired of seeing Melksham give away stupid 50s. Tired of not seeing the club hire a vodou houngan to calm the uneasy spirit of Norm Smith. Tired of saying wtf happened to Tom McDonald Tired of seeing spuds like ANB on the list Tired of Greg Stafford being our goal kicking coach (pre-Choco) Think of this as my MFC Festivus - I got a lot of problems with you people!

Don't blame COVID & lockdown. Melbourne Football Club have ruined football for me ?

Two years for Spargo? JFC. They clearly see something I don't.

I agree regarding the agents - but imagine a parasite like Liam Pickering working to manage 25 mid level players. That’s way too much work and effort.

Melbourne have basically destroyed my enjoyment of footy. A Richmond Geelong grand final is going to do nothing to improve that. Two arrogant clubs both coached by sniping [censored].

Footscray & St Kilda. That's hipster supporter paradise.

It’s gross. Full stop.

If Hunt turns out to be our Mitch Morton in our 2021 premiership side I’ll gladly take back every word ?

Don't need to watch and learn. I just happen to have a different option to the rest of you fan boys on this thread. Your username suggests that maybe you ain't the best judge of footballing talent

Hunt will never be more than a bit player

Do we really think McDonald would pass the vet check? TMac has gone from being a very good player (2018) to someone who can barely move (2019 onwards). That's not form, his body is cooked. Any trade hinges on his medical. My 0 years medical training/33 years football watching say injuries have ruined him. We may not be able to trade him out.

Top 5 best looking blokes in the AFL. Chase him based on that alone.

Hard as nails? We'll disagree on that. Hunt was not interested in playing the backline cause it meant being disciplined. Again - Hunt is an athlete and not a footballer.

Disagree. He's a repeat offender.

Hunt is an athlete and not a footballer. No defensive aspect to his game and doesn't relish a physical contest. He should've been cut last year.

A ruthless coach would've scrutinised every single second of the disaster 2018 prelim. If the players aren't ruthless they shouldn't be on the list.

Same. I deliberately avoided Front Bar last night because Buckenara = '97 Prelim and I don't want to hear it rehashed again. I'm still not over it!

THIS Improvement & development isn't linear. Oliver is a gun and over time he will become truly A Grade.
