Satyriconhome

I seriously do not know what your problem is, I do actually but there has been a warning put up in the last couple of days, so won't go there I understand why the attendances are down, and why the same thing is happening to St Kilda, Norths, and the Bulldogs I completely understand there are issues, but I also understand that posters who come on here and go off half cocked with information or 'facts' only gleaned from media pundits or journalists, only cloud what the real issues are What I tend to do is actually speak to people in the Club, read what the Club has on it's website, speak to a few people outside of the Club but close enough to gauge their opinion/thoughts on things, then I make up my mind what the 'real' issues are I actually also speak face to face with people involved in the Club if I have issues or concerns, I don't hide behind the anonymity of a keyboard taking pot shots.....I also ask questions at any forums/agm/functions I am lucky to be invited to or attend With your post about getting a cut from the food and drink at the G, shows you have very little knowledge if any at all about the running of a football club and MFC in particular at the present moment It is quite simple, do what CBF and P-Man supposedly do, don't read my posts if you don't like them

WYL. thanks you gave me a laugh, this is footy, It was a rubbish piece of journalism, to take it without fully understanding that is not thinking, my point, four or five players not mentioned really..........half the problem with the posters on here is that they take anything a media person or journalist says as gospel

You have just confirmed what I have often thought, you prefer not to think, you let somebody else do it for you The article was lazy, tweeted both him and Rohan Connolly the same

Fine statement that, just about sums you up He was given the opportunity by a 'journalist', a free kick, so he took it, deflects away from the millions they received, holier than thou Slander now, didn't think your standards could slip much further, I was wrong

So what are you expecting then?....the usual, Neeld, Craig, and all the coaches sacked, Connolly sacked, mass resignation of the Board......which bits will you accept not happening? Again, you were there, were you?......er we still have good facilities, the playing list has actually improved, the debt is due to a payout to a CEO and a fine, coupled with less membership and a couple of poor attendances (similar to St Kilda, Bulldogs, NMelb in this bit)

Sorry TA yes it is, to not even mention Terlich who has been one of the most consistent this season is the biggest gaffe, Gawn,........and a couple of others who have been getting regular games in Evans, Bail and Pedersen, it is just lazy most of the rest is just regurgitated.opinion from here, Footy Almanac and Supercoach

What a load of twaddle, what good authority?..........

Connolly's contract status is about a month old, Caro is just recycling again, before we all start grandstanding on this topic, can we wait and see what the Club website says, assume it will say something today, and we can take that as FACT, not a sound bite to make sure you listen after the ad break or buy a subscription to the AGE online to keep up to date with 'breaking news'

I asked him the same thing, Stark and Barry are both very young and growing, we have been pilloried in the past for breaking players, caution is the word with both, Barry is happy just playing, he floats between Development and Seniors depending on who else is available, watched him at Sandy in the wet and he had a very good game, watched one bit, one hand pick up coming out of the 50, lowered his eyes and bent a left foot lace out to Hogan....I am prepared to wait Stark is really combative and an inside mid because young, more benefiical for him to build up gradually, we have Magner and Couch getting 40+ touches in Seniors so not really a spot anyway Westrupp's development has surprised/delighted the coaching staff, a couple of weeks ago at Sandy they put him in defence he nailed his direct opponent 4 times with tackles, spoken to him a couple of times, handballing is still iffy, kicking is getting better, absolutely loves the physical stuff

How does she know any of the above, obviously with her track record of backing Melbourne 100% she has been briefed thoroughly by Peter Jackson, if you want something a bit more edifying Reader's Feast is doing a special on Fiction

Apart from missing Max Gawn, Terlich is not there either, so lacks a bit of credibility, just with those two Correct

I try, I really do, but as Sheldon would say, "i'm not, my mother had me tested"........ I thought perhaps it was my bile duct? What with sugar coated chocalates?.....please if you are going to talk rap at least go with somebody valid like the Last Poets or Gil Scott Heron.......not a wannabe from Missouri

Oh Col, you have me all hot and bothered now, the emotion, the flow of words, not sure I have a belly full of fire, but I have a burning somewhere, gee more posts like that......really added to the topic did that!!!!!............

Hey Col, the good thing is RGRS knows I do it to [censored] you and your ilk off, not to pump up my tyres, he also knows I don't need to pump up my tyres, being the shy and retiring little flower that I am..... Nice to see you would want a bit of consideration, what's wrong precious RGRS hurt your feelings...aaaawwwww I'll tell you what, I have been asking the naysayers on this topic to get off their arses and show a bit of action if they are that concerned with the performance of the Board, surprisingly! I am still waiting.........

Doctor, doctor....not it's not, if you must correct.....agit pop....."the use of pop music to promote political propaganda"...Billy Bragg, Tom Robinson.....I actually knew what reference I was making.....I deliberately used it instead of agitprop...sigh....never mind Polly wants a cracker.....pieces of eight........It wouldn't take an army with you Col......P-Man couldn't sum up 1+1, sorry, he would get 3........it is always about attacking me isn't it with the Hole in the Head gang.....proves to me that you couldn't debate if your lives depended on it

Gee Col, come in keyboard throbbing behind the cover of someone else again.........any chance you adding to the topic?....go on set a precedent you won't be able to keep.... Waiting for inanities to appear.....doesn't take too long......

If you must go off topic to..................It's not superiority.......I actually feel sorry for them........they spout all the usual university agit pop sound bites.....no idea of the real world.....doesn't really matter to them though.........finish their arts degree, get a job with a union or politician, offer backside at every opportunity, parachuted in to a seat to represent the people, serve in Labor government that again lurches from one disaster to another......walk away in mid 40's with healthy pension......appear on Q&A talking about things they have no real idea about, revert back to spouting the usual agitpop sound bites

mjt hilarious.........It is nice to see the more 'mature' posters looking back with fondness.........it's frightening to think people actually voted for these persons.........I always like to stop outside the State Library and snigger at the young people handing out the 'socialist' newspapers.....

Ruthless, necessary steel, mean streak.......think you have watched too many of the Fast and Furious franchise, this is football......thought you were in the Banking Industry, surely you get enough opportunities there to be a censored The Club is not going to fold, besides which this is just footy, if it is the only thing in your life, then you need to look at your life If I disagree with your pontificating, and P-Man's, that makes my comments stupid, I think I will rest my case on that If you are not faint hearted, you going to nominate for the Board then, haven't seen you offering yourself up as yet, seeing that you are inferring you have influence at the 'big end' of town

As long as you enjoyed, of course you would easily recognise stupid statements wouldn't you Personal opinion P-Man, something you and the other members of the 'all is crap' club bang on about, or is your rather small and insignificant group the only ones allowed them? If you don't think the banking industry is untrustworthy, have a look at Cyprus at the moment, or speak to the Victorian Lady who had worked all her life and lost all her super thanks to a poorly supervised CBA Financial adviser, whose misdeeds were actually hidden by the bank, any Lehman Bros executive who caused the GFC but walked away with their millions intact And as for the politicians, we have people drowning off the coast of Australia, and what is Gillard worried about, what colour tie should be worn. Wildly off topic, but I feel better now

Misunderstanding my posts again, but then again you are not on your Pat Malone.....must be being a Trotters fan, always preferred Blackburn myself or at a push Wigan, all far enough away from Liverpool I knew Grimshaw was with BOQ, I actually do know all the ins and outs of the Club I support, unlike some, I am not looking for a scapegoat, I said how I would vote, if Grimshaw was up for re election and it was opposed, then unlike some on here, I would actually listen to what was being said by both candidates, but I am predisposed not to trust bankers, but they are in a long list along with politiicians, unionists, media...........

It's a better rundown than yours Col, your entry music is starting......da da da diddle da da da.....I must really get to you

Pollsters...what like on here... Do you think Jeff Kennett is a. a good bloke b. all right c. ok surprise surpise everybody thinks Jeff is an allright ok good bloke...sigh...... I think you will find that the politicians and the big end of town you seem to favour, continually underestimate the intelligence of the general populace, you are in the minority not the majority.............

Jeff Kennett, Lloyd Williams, Ron Walker...the 3 musketeers....there you go 3 new board members, all squeaky clean, never done a wrong thing in their life

I didn't back track, I actually said I would vote no now to anybody new, if he is up for election again, if there is a choice, I would have to look at it, there is a difference I have worked in quite a few industries, again you will get a cynical view, unfortunately these days it is all about making a dollar, that is all that matters
