these are so dated ...

Only recruit players who are described as TOUGH. Not Lucas Cook, Addam Maric, Matt Bate, Cale Morton, Jordie Gysberts.

too many chiefs ... and not the right focus on the "warriors".

yes. Get rid of Moloney and Martin ... keep Spencer

Words. Words. Words. Big on talk. NO ACTION.

agreed. Nicho heard footsteps and shirked the contest. delist ...

help ... we are in hell. No A grade players and no money.

Dawes ?? pushed off the footy. One effort. Poor elbow swing. Tried to mark on chest not hands. he was poor.

AFL standard Howe - Our best. If he could kick straight he would bag 5-6. Gawn - liked his game. Big man. Has the edge. N.Jones - tagged again. No one cuts out his tagger to help. Sylvia - showed why he is in our top 5 players. Frustration let him down. Viney - tried but flawed M.Jones - classy disposal. Our best rookie this year. Strauss - showed some run and carry. Nice goal. A keeper. Terlich - trier Tapscott - showed some grunt. but also fumbled too much Frawley - was he playing !! McKenzie - hmmm - bereft of skills Dunn – trier. Garland - holding back a tidal wave. trier. Sellar - trier Evans - trier Kent - overwhelmed. trier. leave in to get some games into. Dawes - no one at magpieland cried when he left. One effort player. To be omitted: Spencer – 2nd rate. VFL Dev squad. Bail – ohhh. Back to vfl. Fell over. Missed tackles etc etc Nicholson - dumb and dumber and dumb and dumber 2 Byrnes - VFL standard (drop) Davey - limited and flawed. Missed 2 easy goals

Mark "Choco" Williams. Ayres as football manager/development coach.

Neeld was pathetic. Disgraceful. Get rid of a teacher who cannot teach (or lead). An assistant only.

3 weeks. Poor decision, based on frustration. Colin actually was one of our better players (against those who say he is a downhill skier). His ability and skill to kick the left foot goal was an example of his talent.

We need a STAR ...

agreed ... time for the new blood to be given 5-6 games on the trot.

Keep the faith ... faint hope is what sustains us. Talls look well stocked: Clark, Hogan, Frawley, Dawes, T McDonald, Gawn, Jack Fitzpatrick We need more mids and a crumbing forward. Only recruit those described as "tough". Class of 2013 - Luke Dunstan, Cavarra, Dominic Sheed, Ben Lennon.

Most improved - Col Garland & Luke Tapscott Backwards - Tom McDonald & Jack Trengove Surprise packet - Matt Jones & Michael Evans

agreed ... all were wasted picks. Swap for 3 youngsters who would walk over glass for a game

Cooney NO Shiel YES YES & YES

Dear Mark Neeld. Don't stuff up like your predecessor. Sign blokes who want to be at MFC. Give Billy Stretch as much support as we can.

Best stat is "points for" (and 2nd most important ... points against).

Sam Blease needs 3-4 weeks at Casey. Agree play him on the wing OR fwd pocket and he must kick goals. He shows some brilliance. Was drafted on the back of some flashy play like Strauss. One of BP's mysteries.

one man ... Chris Judd. He would have made a difference.

if we get within 8 goals ... I'm also accepting this.

Sign Billy Stretch ... he wants to play for MFC. Good enough for me. Remember Dylan Grimes. MFC Bailey missed him when he desparately wanted to play with his brother. And Alwyn Davey. MFC Bailey said he was too short.
