    The 2 weeks for the elbow by Mckernan is an absolute disgrace. A thug act. Sheahan OTC, said as much and said the 3 weeks given to Spencer, for standing still and being run into, was wrong.

    Will we ever see logic and consistency at the match review. In all its recent forms its failed. Always, or at least often , so varying in its discourse of penalties as to make the place farcial.

    Until more voice and weight given to perhaps those recently retired from the game then I cant see how it will remedy. It cant help either that the rules are just rubbish now in so many parts of the game. Over complication of ajudication leads to too many areas of intepretation.

    Im not really sure what the answer is tbh only that what is current is bogus

    Just a quick note from the old colony lads. Internet is very quirky but I managed to get the news of another dees loss- somethings never change. I'm up in the highlands at the moment so the temperature is very pleasant. Have organised a boatman and will cruise Inlay lake shortly.

    The natives all seem to be jolly good fellows and they certainly like we typical Australians. People are constantly stopping to look at me and laugh happily.

    The alpacas would it.

    Must confess I have never had a glass of scotch in my life, so I wouldn't know about the different ones. Most I have had is a small sip, once or twice.

    Like most things in life Redleg the more you pay the better it gets.

    Medium priced Single malt is the starting point.

    Anything below that is best used as an antiseptic IMO

    Nah - more likely cause infection, OD :-). I am not much of a drinker, but a couple of years residing within a drop kick of The Malt Shovel made a few basics rub off: no blends, single malt only, the more unpronounceable the better ...

    • 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.
