We went from being so hot and cold in games to winning 18 straight qtrs. Shout out to Goody and his coaches, they've done something right.

Best % in the league. Confidence is sky high and climbing.

Lever a genius

Brayshaw looking like a superstar

Viney dominant

Tim Bull Smith a massive boost to the side, hes a machine

Hogan is a SUPERSTAR

Gawn may be the greatest tap ruckman of all time

Spargo the terrier never stops going

Hibberd magnificent

Oliver a god

Could go on and on and on..............

What a ripper game.  Can't remember such play from the MFC!!!

Even in your day Barrie I can’t remember such dominance ...... but you won a flag and these guys haven’t ...... yet!  That is their challenge.

Best game ive seen us play for a long, long time.

 

All round. Ball movement. Pressure. Attacking.

 

Love it.

 

The fact we still get zero recognition makes it all the better. Go Dee's!

Some low scores this round. Dogs 58, Bris Layups 49, Boos 45. Ugly slogging football.

In a game like ours, where it's not a slog, a superior player can really show off his wares. It's marvellous and a joy to see players like Gus, like Lewis, kids like Spargo, show how they know where to go and what to do with the ball when they get it. Hogan with his rapid fire hands. That's football.

Last time the MFC played Football like this was 1987, when we came home on a huge emotional wave. 

When the emotion and belief is front and centre, it’s mighty hard to stop. 

The players will now believe, as long as they keep working. 

Job is far from done.

Next week we will win too against the dogs and the reason I know that is because it’s Jones’s 250 game and if anyone deserves a win it’s him. 

Go dees

Big game next week.

Chunk's 250th, but also because thanks to the AFL scheduling team, Dogs have a 7.5 day break and we have a 5.5 day break.

26 degree heat and 5 day break = very light week on the track.

Bull Smith was great today! Having watched him go from VFL to playing good footy at AFL level gives me so much happiness

So glad my kids can hang over the fence as they belt out the song.

There's a mouldy oldie song called "Teach Your Children Well". Just came to mind for some reason ...

One of the pleasing things of the last few weeks has been the switching of play and our handballing is 5-10 meters out of contests as we are all not rushing in.

NO EXCUSES!  Just kill from the opening bounce.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
