Back to Epics.....

What about "The Complete guide to Hand-Wringing" by MFCSSS.

You just "Liked" yourself for good measure there also.

Many of melbournes great stars of the 50s played injured often.

GeeZZ mate, I think the standard of footy has changed a bit from the 50's.....What a stupid post...

Lots of people like McDonald's, but that doesn't mean it's good for you.

I have posted before that's I think Frawley up forward is worth a look in pre season. Has pace on a lead, good hands and knows how to apply pressure when needed.

 

He's been in horrible form & has turned into a lair. The competitive psycho we all loved has disappeared.

I've heard he's carrying some kind of foot injury that's made him a week to week proposition - this would explain why he's not making every contest.

Tough year to be a FB at Melb. Your co-leaders in back line injured or moved forward (Bartram, Garland, Rivers) and the team constantly losing.

Looks low on confidence, understandably so given the year we've had.

Reckon they are all looking forward to 8pm Sat 1st September.

I know I am.


His foot injury will still be bothering him, you can play with it but it hurts. What I notice with Frawley last night he was out muscled a couple of times by Walker and after that he avoided body contact. Didn't help that most of Adelaides Goals game from our turnovers and Walker had an open 50m arc to work in.

Some of the hysteria on here really amuses me...

Chip can't win

if he stood in front of the forward they would knock it over his head, a defender only has to look at a forward the wrong way and it is a free kick these days...if there is space for the forward to lead into, the defender is gone

Chip may have had a poor game yesterday, wasn't on his own, maybe carrying an injury, probably isn't on his own again, had a battering most of the season, again not on his own....but really....any volunteers on here to take on a 90-100Kg man who can run and jump next week or next season

Walker's mullet makes this scary big man seem even scarier... and he and Tippet were rotating to isolate and impose themselves.

Tuning up for their tilt, little James could do given where we are at...

Edited by PaulRB

Agree. Frawley's biggest problem is the MFC midfield. When the opposition routinely has 40 to 50 inside 50s each week, I am not sure he alone can stop the oncoming flood stream

This.

I'd prefer Chip go to the Anthony Ingerson school of defence. Start making his opponents earn their kicks. Ingerson's opponents would think twice when marking in front. Walker hardly had any physical pressure all day.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
