About five months after the 2028 AFL season ends.

That too long! I have a feeling it will take a long time before we have any more success. The club appears to be an on/off field basket case again 🤔 😳 😐 To start the process of recovery we need to sack everyone who has been associated with the Collingwood Football Club and NEVER again recruit from this den of rat bags again.  Also feel this approach should taken against anyone thats had any association with the Essendon  Football Club. We need Peter Jackson back again 😢 😫 😔

Is that the Peter Jackson that was CEO of Essendon?

Asking for a friend 🙂

That’s why rules can be exempted.

They are not exemplary.

Did Jai Culley miss out on getting picked in the SSP because his name sounds suspiciously like the bloke who can’t be mentioned here?

Well that could be a reason, but I think he is still a chance, depending on how the club sees the best way for Kentfield to use this season.

If they move him to the LTI, that may open up a spot and still allow Luker to play a few games with Casey, once he gets fit later in the season.

That would take a lot of pressure off him and allow us to add a player who is ready to play, straight away.

A poster reminded me how quickly unpleasant memories can resurface, when he said how lucky it was that our new recruit Jai Culley's first name didn't start with an S.

Saw Clarry at Ciaron Maher stable doing interviews yesterday.

Update on horse he is in with me. Has been disappointing lately and it is having probably its last start for us on saturday, in race 4 at Edenhope.

It’s number 1 and prophetically called     “ centre square “.

Tbh, I only took a share, ignoring my usual selection methods, because Clarry was involved.

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
