MFC Training at Casey Fields (Friday)

Our list's development concerns me a bit, are we a chance to win a premiership?

Not if Scully gets OP . :mellow:

 

Can you read?

He has already had it and learnt to deal with it from the age of 16.

Not an issue as long as he continues to monitor it.

Your concerns are: List?, lack of specialist coaches? Where? I am very interested to get your feedback -as I believe we have got the stronest list possible.I think we have now the best development coaching list we have ever had. I look forward to your response.

 

Anyone got that facepalm image handy..?

You're killing me JCB . You're killing me...

C'mon man!


It's also a long way from Maldon to Casey Fields.

Maldon's a beautiful part of the world. Many years ago, a friend built a mud brick house with his own hands including a great outdoor sauna.

Quite a contrast to the outer suburban environment of Cranbourne East (no offense to KC from Casey).

I love that saying... who's hands would he have used if not his own?

 

Touche. Should have paid more attention in English class. Oh well.

Classic!

Scully is amazing and trains as if he is in a match. Sharp, very focussed and his kicking was on song which is good news after a high number of foot-blunders in matches last year. He comes across like the sort of bloke who is addicted to footy - you know, when he isn't training or playing, he is reading about it, learning in some way, or just tossing a footy around in his hands. REALLY impressive and stands out on the training track.

He loves it so much he stayed away from alcohol in order to play as good as he could, to me that is pretty epic and quite rare in your average Aussie teenage bloke. Think about when he is in his prime, say 25-27, he will be the bloke at the club that just sets the bar really high for everyone to jump over, and on gameday he will throttle sides especially as the game goes on everyone else tires. Really excited about this kid.

Aaron Davey's leadership was great to see. After each drill, whoever was in his group got a pat on the back or bum and a word of encouragement. It was intentional, deliberate and effective. I haven't seen him in this light before and he comes across as a strong and effective leader.

that's because he's trolling for the captaincy!

Thanks for the update. Welcome and I really hope you can get out there more!

Any update on McKenzie or Garland would be appreciate. 2 best 22 guys who seem to go under the radar with training reports. Hopefully that means they are just going about there business well and are readying themselves for strong seasons.

I'd love a report on the new rookies as well but understand if its hard to spot them because I wouldn't be able to.

Maldon: they play in Essendon jumpers don't they, Maldonboy?

Maldon played in Essendung colours yes, but not the same jumper. Please!!! We never called ourselves the Bombers, we were always the Dons. Later in life I had the opportunity to play in the Bendigo Football League and would you believe I could not play for Castlemaine because they had Colliwobbler colours so I went to Kyneton and put up with a Richmond strip. Old habits die hard.

I should have put in some info about Col Garland. In one of the drills they were kicking to a marking contest with the forward trying to mark and the defender trying not only to spoil, but to tap to it a ground player. Col's position was 10/10 each time I was watching. He sometimes makes me feel a bit like Watts does. It doesn't feel like he is really attacking the contest but he rarely gets beaten and his skills under pressure are effective. As much as I hate Carltank, Peter Dean comes to mind as someone similar.

Cheers. Also going from an earlier photo he looks a bit stronger this year which is good. Certainly no Frawley, but not a kid anymore in terms of build.

Fairly obvious, I thought...

At the same time, I know where Tobias was heading.

So many things today are advertised as "hand-made" - as opposed to what exactly?

They have robots pumping some of this stuff out?

Specially trained monkeys?

subbies.

Yes, it was merely a quip on the idea of taking the statement literally; to use someone else's hands.. I mean you can only "use" your own hands, if you hire help- they use their own hands- unless you cut them off and and proceed to work like some kind of DIY Norman Bates.

Joke fail.

Yes, it's like hearing voices in your head.

As opposed to where exactly - hearing voices in your legs?

That's proper mental.

I'm Jimmy Carr, thank you.

I was about to repeat one of his jokes, but only a quarter of them are fit for this type of... forum.

I used to know someone who was a hand model - maybe it was their's? :unsure:

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • VOTES: Richmond

    Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
