  1. Congratulations TDI on landing your new job. I hope you have a considerate boss who gives you a flexible enough timetable to allow the odd visit to Gosch's Paddock :)

    Definitely, it's not easy to land a job these days......

    Especially when you turn up to the interview on a scooter :)

  2. Wow...everyone tipping saints...except Carey, Dermo, and cambell brown.

    Respect, we want to earn respect - this is what our team is preaching.....

    Well how about from this week onwards start [censored] playing 120 min of consistent, hard football that earns you this respect. Then carry it to next week, then the one after....

    I'm sick of hearing 7yrs of excuses. JUST WIN!!!!!

  3. I'm 100% certain we will lose this. My wife is a saints supporter and this last 8 years has been hell. I've given up on getting one up on her with the footy.

    Sorry mate, I hate to tell you but I think Mrs Pipefitter will be rubbing more salt into your wounds on Sunday night.

    Damn Etihad curse!

    So was thinking about how the club would like to create a link with the city and came up with this while at work, ( i realize the colors are wrong)

    I was dissapointed that after making such a great video for this years membership drive that I didn't see it on Fox Footy, Free to air tv, see it in the papers or hear it on MMM or SEN (correct me if I'm wrong). I realize its costs money but what is the point in making it if not going to get on the front foot and get it out there. I would imagine the majority of people that visit the MFC website are members?

    (hope the attachment works as had trouble uploading)

    Busy day at work today :)

    I like your idea though. Fwiw, the ads were aired on Fox at the start of the year. Haven't seen them for a while now though.

  5. Just an excuse to cover up lack of ability now P-man

    Exactly! I bet you he'd love to say exactly what he thinks. This is what I'd imagine he wish he could say.....

    I've been here two drafts, and have got rid of as many crap players as list management rules allow. This is a full list rebuild. I've gotten rid of 22 bloody players and still we've got players who can't kick, man up, tackle or have guts. Line is in the sand now for the remaining 18-20 other players, start playing like an AFL player or you're out.

  6. Are you blokes serious?

    When PR took over we were a 2 win 55% team. If it wasn't for the expansion teams our win/loss and percentage would have been worse. In fact the expansion teams somewhat hid how crap we were as they were the only teams we could beat. Problem was they got better and we remained a disgrace. How long do you think it takes to turn this ship around? He has only been around for just over a season and a bit, give him a break.

    I'd love to see you experts do better.

  7. Buck up guys the slashing of wrists since the Hawthorn debacle is getting silly.

    Lets be realistic. We won 4 games last year & hopefully can get 6-8 wins this year. We started the season well & showed great improvement. Then injuries - Jetta, Kent, JKH, Viney, Salem, Hogan. Then a number of players badly out of form - Watts, Jamar, Howe, Dunn, Gawn, Dawes. On top of this our better mids N Jones & Tyson both look a bit proppy.

    You take effectively 8+ players out of our best 22 & of course we are going to struggle.

    Look at poor Stretch - once in the better players at Casey & straight into the Firsts. At the Swans he would need to do this 5 or 6 times before getting promoted.

    While last week was disappointing we will continue to struggle until we get a decent, in form group of 22 players out there. I still reckon we can take a step forward & win 6-8 games.

    Yep, been thinking exactly same thing.

    Chin up Demonlanders, always next week.

  8. Given the performances last week of Pederson, Newton, JKH and Watts generally, then these aren't surprising outs.

    I am concerned though that we will be playing too short this week and that Dawes will have to relieve ruck with a suspect calf.

    I have trust in our FD, but I don't think the Hawks have much to worry about this week.

  9. I'd like to retract my earlier positive post after looking at the Melbourne changes. We are going to get massacred. I probably won't attend or watch now.

    Lol. I'm going but already planning on wearing my Dees Beer Goggles - they're a must for every supporter, we look brilliant when you put them on.
