If Hawthorn Football Club was a contestant on Survivor, they would drift away south onto a smaller island.

Lol that is quite funny but the even funnier thing is 30% of supporters voted to have your only your clubs emblem on our guerney's pretty much making the non existant in the proposed melbounre hawks merger. at the least the 52% dissapoitning dees fans who did vote in favour of the merger knew they were absoultely ripping off your pathetic club

ROFL. Your not too bright are you?

If 30% voted for it that leaves a whopping 70% who didn't want it. Which shows that there were more than 2 times as many who didn't want it to happen unlike your mob who where pretty much 50/50 if it werent for the two bums you got to vote which swung it up another 2 percent

What's even more funny is that 'MELBOURNEfc' 'supporters' tried to create an identity by merging...but in the process voting their history (there only call to fame) into insignificance

Melbourne is like the teenage boy that took 18 months to work up the energy to ask girl out, only to be flattely rejected :thumbsu:

It is quite a compelling argument you make:

'Most of our members voted yes. Most of our members are quite disappointing. Personally I wouldn't have minded the merger because then at least we could claim some recent success on the field. That's why I voted yes."

The whole merger thing is a yawn but I'll say this:

How did negotiations get so far in the first place? Both clubs had extensive negotiations ultimately leading to an official merger announcement. It wasn't until Don Scot pointed out to the Hawthorn supporters what a bad deal they were getting that they woke up. Incidentally more Melbourne people voted in total than Hawthorn people which shows who were more passionate about their club.

The ironic thing is that since 1996 Hawthorn have made the finals 3 times and Melbourne 6 times so the whole success of Hawthorn thing has now become irrelevant. Both clubs can now move on knowing that the decision has been made and neither club are looking back... just some of the Hawkers on BF.

mmmmm, yes you have been very successful. The 10 year 'Daniher dynasty'.:D


It is little wonder you claim not to be looking back.

I'm sorry mate, I am not sure what you are getting at. Are you saying Daniher was no good because he took us to the finals 6 times and a GF as opposed to 3 finals appearances by your lot:confused:

They probably would, as the ones who would vote to keep them in would be barred from calling, as they were barred from voting in the merger debate.
This is what happens when you have a corrupt board.

What part of 6 finals and a GF don't you understand? I never said he was the epitome of success (those were your words) and obviously like any supporter I wish the club could have done better. However in the time he was at Melbourne we did a lot better than what the Hawks did by a fair margin but for some reason I find a Hawthorn supporter trying to argue the point. Obviously if Hawthorn were good enough to not have to sack coaches over the last 10 years we could perhaps compare coaches but alas...

That is the most stupefying comment I have read on this site. So by your logic perhaps Clarkson should get the sack since you don't have a premiership. Daniher's finals strike rate was 60% over 10 years, not the best but certainly not the worst.

Yet Daniher got the arse.

If he was so good, why sack the guy?

You said his record was "the epitome of success", so if he was so good, why is he still not the Coach.

You f**kwit.

RELATIVE TO HAWTHORN IDIOT!!!!

I never came out and said he was the epitomy of success in the first place in fact I stated he was not the best but far from the worst. You were the one who used that term and I agreed when comparing to Hawthorn.

Congratulation you can spell and understand gramar now move on to comprehension.

Do you really need me to tell you?

ok, I'll try to explain it to you. Daniher resigned in light of the public announcement of a review of all departments of the MFC. In light of his decision the club decided it was best for him not to coach for the rest of the year. That is the basics of it. He was not sacked for performance related reasons.

Now if you seriously want to keep comparing the likes of Judge and Schwab to Daniher be my guest.

Once again since you (like the Lizard) think you actually have a point, I said relative to Hawthorn which you obviously knew. Now go and get ******.

Do you think the board publicly announced their impending review due largely to Daniher's performance?

Do you think they were more concerned with the membership department's performance, and were suprised by Daniher's resignation?

Did you vote yes?

Do you think Chris Judd gave Melbourne a lot more consideration than he did Hawthorn?

Do you think that you have completely lost the arguement that Melbourne outperformed Hawthorn during the Daniher years?

I consider that he had his good points and bad points and that NO he did not epitomise success as a coach in his own right... BUT given that he took a young side to a GF and made 6 finals in 10 years MFC had a far better record than Hawthorn under Daniher all things considered that analogy could be used relative to Hawthorn's performance. I don't know how many times I have to say that he was not the best nor the worst. Now you have moved on to "The Daniher Dynasty" ffs, 6 finals v 3 finals now get over it.

This arguement really is flogging a dead horse.

I would have thought 'flogging a dead horse' an apt description of Daniher's last few years at the helm.

You did make the finals a couple of times there though.:thumbsu:
