Basically the rules are pretty much the same. The difference is that the umpires are not sh#@ scared of television replays making asses of them, so they don't pay the frivolous, tiggy-touchwood free kicks that supporters hate to see. They let a few go and only pay the obvious ones... the way games were umpired when I was a kid in the '80's. In fact, very similar to VFL games. If you watch the ABC telecast, you'll know what I mean.

I'm not exactly withdrawing at the moment, but sadly I copped a buttock injury playing cricket today. Don't ask me how you strain muscles playing cricket. I think I'm just getting old (only 28, but this would never have happened in years gone by). But I think I'll be able to play hurt. I can still run, just not with any degree of comfort. I'll be there and see how I go. It feels better when warm, but I only just got home from the day's play, so don't know how it will be tomorrow.

thanks, mfc...

you have done a great job with the organising of this game...

hope it matches the first game against saintsational...

that was one the old-timers remember...

(nobody should remind me that was the end of my goal-umpy career as well)...

thanks Rollo ;) At the end of the day, let's hope the team has a win and everyone enjoys themselves. The spirit of the game.

My crew are all still on track. At this stage, Jo will be happy to run boundary ump, drinkgirl or even put on a jumper for a quarter if needed.

Dianne is official matchday photographer, hopefully she can grab some candid shots and that very famous club song at the end.

Big thanks to Dave - he's looking forward to the run even though he is a diehard Bombers man....AND Marfa Parfa for just being there to support.

BTW - I'm refraining from the traditional sunday chicken parma for lunch. you guys owe me.

Weather is playing funny buggers. They're saying storms, they're saying rain. At the moment, all I can see is sunshine.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
