The Importance of Jordan Lewis
We should have appointed him as runner then. Problem is, that Goody would only get 4 messages out per quarter.

The Importance of Jordan Lewis
Not saying he should go to VFL. I am saying he should have retired at the end of last year. Not blaming him. Good luck to him. If I was him, I would have signed the 3 year deal. I am blaming the consensus of wisdom that is SEN, a majority here, and those that didn't stand up with a clear head at the club when he called Todd Viney. A 3 year deal for a guy who should have retired in 2017, will go down as an absolute clanger.

We weren't winning at half-time.

The Importance of Jordan Lewis
2.5 more years of carrying this guy.....tick tock tick tock. Loses his feet more than any other player since Simon Eishold. The experts and majority were wrong on this one. pTGR

Joe Daniher
Easy solution. Give him 20 shots at goal from 35 out on a 45 degree angle. Every goal he kicks, he gets $100k per year on his contract. Don't think they will be up for 2 mill a year.

Zak Jones
Gee wiz, MFC attracting a player with speed has been the: - exception (Garlett) - not the rule - (Vince, Melksham, Lewis, Tyson....) Stretch isn't doing enough at this early stage, and Garlett doesn't line-break through a defence; but rather Garlett is great out the back. We have over-dosed on inside strength, and have an under-supply of line-breaking outside speed from D50. Jones will be considered, irrespective of family.

The Importance of Jordan Lewis
If we get half a year of OK footy, that is more than I predicted. The game has passed him by. No pace. No tricks forward as a superannuation. His suspension against Carlton overshadowed numerous losing of the feet. Can't believe that a majority of our supporters hailed this decision to give a 3 year deal to him. Mitchell and Lewis had great years last year, but Hawthorn got pulverised in contested ball and clearances. Leadership experience whatever. Bulldogs didn't really need it last year. Small sample size yes, but they didn't need it.

Nat Fyfe
Yes Caro. How dare you print the truth without the blokey SEN hyperbole MMM white male boys club carp...that is often music to the ears of the simpleton.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CLAYTON OLIVER
He only actually realised the sacrifices over the past 12 months. Most potential draftees realise it at least 3-4 years beforehand. In 2014, Oliver was "tubby" according to a few teammates at the Bushrangers. If you consider how far he has come in a short time of "discipline over indulgence" (Lyonism), the upside you see might actually be higher.

Delistings/trades at end of the season
Brainstorming exercise..................... If Fyfe was a Victorian (and he's not), would you consider Fyfe for Hogan plus 3rd round pick this Christmas. The lure for Hogan to go home and awful supply will get to him eventually. What would WC give up for him? Gaff (23 y.o) & Shuey? Gaff, Lamb and 1st round pick next year? Hogan's price is high. If the inevitable will happen one day, might as well cash in big in the boom.

The Jack Viney Made Me Cry Thread
Many here can knit-pick at his odd mis-kick etc.. This bloke is so un-Melbourne and will have a huge say in changing our culture. He has heart and guts and gives 100% every minute. So many credits in the bank, it aint funny. Injuries aside, Brayshaw, Viney and Kent in the middle in the 2019 GF might be a pipe-dream, but they will stand up on the last day.

The Ollie Whines Lounge
The thing that hurts with Wines is that he wanted to come here. As I posted with my first post on land, basically there was a chance to build a fraternity here…a brotherhood. I'd love to know the inside machinations of the decision. Neeld probably wanted to exert his power over Todd.

Tom McDonald?
I'll buy the TMac shares. Has a tank. Can keep the most dangerous multi-dimensional-mobile-tall quiet. Without Frawley, with Dunn has held up a defence that has had heaps of I50s against it.
