I think Smith was still coach until end of 1967.

Oh well, there you go, better off drafting duds, they never get injured, play consistently every week without fail..

We are durable and enduring if anything, being able to stare down one crisis after another and survive, a little like the Monty Python knight..

Freo are really making it a public humiliation, doubt if Col would care or even realise, he is fairly laid back. At least he is still on an AFL list, unlike treacle toes McLean.

Big plan about nothing, same old Hooha.

Roos said the same thing about Frawley, wish him to stay, then tried to window dress him for a bargain sale as a multi positional possibility, and won a round one pick.

I believe your comments to be true, a lot more to this than meets the eye, the club couldn't off load the bludger quick enough.

That is correct, the argument has always been that the clubs administration and Football Depot should be co-located. Gosch's paddock is problematic as it is not possible to have a truly closed session on the side of a 6 lane road. Training at AAMI needs to be rostered around the other tenants. I believe we receive free rental for staff at the MCG as part of MCC alignment. The other site is Casey where we train a few times in summer, and play our second 18. On the surface it's a mess, but I doubt if it affects the scoreboard, just inconvenient for everybody working within the club.

Need to set McKenzie loose, away from defensive roles, reckon he will surprise, if I recall his first few games were quite good before he was sentenced as a tagger.

Smithy I am very hopeful that the club has bottomed out, and am expecting a few more wins this upcoming season.

Wouldn't be great Telly Melbourne playing Hawthorn or Swans or most other teams on a Friday night, I wouldn't like to see that, it's all about a competitive game, and the advertising revenue, and the crowd and excitement a decent contest brings. Do the crime of losing and do the time at the bottom, away from the headlights, until, and if the club ever forms into a competitive unit.

The AFL plant suggested we move to Melbourne University, and sell caps in Collins Street, Docklands was Smooths idea, about as sensible as the East/West link, wondered what he did behind the big desk. St Kilda shafted us out too Casey, wherever that is, and out of our highly successful alignment with Sandringham, Callingwood moved out of the Punt road Paddock and we moved in, just two of many mistakes, that have led us down the path to basket case status.

Could have sent the coach an email.

Lost our last ten games, difficult to support the idea we will do any better next year, the list is poor, the coach has planned his exit, would take a miracle, but you live in hope.

The man is a renowned nuff nuff, anybody in S.A could tell you that, but yes the man can play, way past his best, but easily amongst the MFC best. Dead set losers cant' be choosers.

Always wondered what position Tappy could have made his own, reckon it had to be a Back Pocket, small with a big turning circle, congratulations on playing 48 games for the Dees though, a very similar player to Kyle Cheney who keeps on kicking on, so there is some hope.

Fantastic news, Macca is the best bloke I have ever met.

We did move forward, Alex was an upgrade on the Gillinator, albeit not by a lot.

We actually played quite well as nomads under Danners.

Average at Carlton, delisted at 28 from the club he loved. Not much of a bloke, not much of a footballer..

This is always the best part of the Dawes 500k season, and he is suspended yet again," if it is to be it is up to others."

Mitch Clark, poor type of fellow, I suspect the bludger will have difficulties fitting in at Geelong.

Happy to give up both ex captains, Trengrove and Grimes and 20 something for 12, time to move forward and recruit someone who can play, sure both are good blokes and may sign the back of your jumper, love the club like Mitch and Spud Frawley, but both have little ability and 12 is a bargain, would even throw in Dawes...

4 wins, 17th out of 18, staved off the wooden spoon on percentage, lost the last 10 in a row, completely unacceptable, no other way of describing the season. Complete failure.

Our problem is getting the ball, Dawes, Watts, The Ped, Hogan, Garlett , JKH, will take care of business, just get it down there.
