Someone said to me during the week that MFC supporters are the biggest bunch of whiners in the AFL. Hard to dispute with some of the comments in this thread. Nate, Tyson, Grimes, Salem, Jetta, Toumpas are running and using the ball well. Our forward set up looks well balanced and dare I say it dangerous with JKH and Jeffy at the big fellas feet. You can only beat what's in front of you. Hoping we put our foot down on their throat in the second half.

That would probably be me, having to 'watch' the game through here, radio and stream because of other commitments

Yes the Dogs are below strength, so Roos message will be to stick to game plan and methods and hopefully smash them

I am getting a mixed bag, but common themes are forward set up is looking good and ball movement has improved, if you can hit a team mate who is open, it doesn't matter who the opposition are, you are practicing getting open

Honestly, how could anyone possibly complain, I know they are under strength (still M.Boyd, Minson, Morris, Bontempelli etc.), but we are absolutely killing them and ball use is very good, especially considering windy conditions. Some people will never be happy.

This quarter will be telling for me.

We have smashed them in the first half and will be cruising. They will want to hit back. And we are kicking against a strong wind.

If we win this quarter I will be very happy with our endeavour.

Loved the work of Toumpas yelling at Watts to kick for goal. Even though he missed it as a forward there is no excuse for not having a shot for goal directly in front from 40 metres out (even with the wind blowing).

Hogan has been in great spots but hasn't managed to quite clunk them.

Loved that. Hogan dropped the mark and JKH crumbed the ball beautifully.

HAHAHA!!!!

Hutchy - "Great mark... Who is it?"

Pickers - "I think it's Viney but we'll have to wait till he turns around"

Hutchy - "Is it Viney? Hard to see from here"

Pickers - "Bloody Oath it is!"

HAHAHA!!! These guys are a cracker! :blink:

Can't say I expected anything less.

Doggies are seriously undermanned. Some positives from a lot of our youngsters.

Grimes, McKenzie, Matt Jones.

The sooner we upgrade, the better.

How does Grimes consistently run team mates into trouble?

Dees butchering it a bit here.

Only started watching five minutes ago and... if I didn't know the scoreline I'd be embarrassed with how we're playing.

Who the hell was Dawes kicking to a minute ago? Caused a turnover then goal. Our defence seem to be running around without any direction at all.

Love Tyson, but struggling to hit a target.

But 80% disposal efficiency. *shrug*

Maybe he is getting it more often than you've noticed? I mean, he has had it more than anyone else on the ground.

I wonder if it is part of MFCSS to only notice who a player is after they've committed a turnover?

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
