    I don't understand why it is rumour file worthy?

    Is the implication he was faking his injury so he he could make a movie session?

    Is the leggy blonde famous woman?

    Is the leggy blonde a famous bloke?

    It’s the leggy blonde bit that’s surprising 

    as opposed to a blonde with no legs?

    Why would you pay to take a horse to see a movie? If the movie was Sea Biscuit or Black Beauty, then I’d understand. But Mission Impossible?

    Bernie Vince gave Lynch a bath when we smashed them earlier in the season. So that match up is a no brainer. 

    Then we have O Mac and Frost vs Walker and Jenkins.

    The big worry is who plays on McGovern if he plays forward?  Hoping he plays back for them with Doedee likely not playing.

    He'll play forward I think. And I'm not sure what the plan is.

    Joel Smith, I suppose? Maybe J Smith to Jenkins and Oscar to McGovern.

    Off memory didn't Frost play his best ever game against Walker in our win over there last year. Perhaps he takes Walker.

    I've lost all faith in O Mac taking the number 1 forward. Mind you Jenkins ain't a mug either which is the match up you suggested above..

    Yes he is.

    One of the game's most over-rated players. Joe the goose goals are his specialty.

    Not sure how this thread turned into yet another OMac debate, though.

    3AW Rumour File 

    No names mentioned but a report this morning that a certain midfielder who left training early with a quad strain was sighted not long later at the new Mission Impossible movie with a leggy blonde?

    Crap rumour. Could have at least picked a flick that is in cinemas. Mission Impossible only premiered yesterday in Sydney. Lol, what a rubbish rumour. Opens on the 2nd nationally.

    Training Wednesday, 25th July 2018

    The morning was sunny with minimal wind, though a bit brisk.

    The players needed a fair bit of encouragement by the coaches to get the intensity up. Once going, then the talk, the commitment and energy increased. Though I thought it was a low keyed training session with plenty of jokes and laughs going around.

    The rehab group had Dion Johnstone and Michael Hibberd (mainly lap work). Included were the light duty players of Neville Jetta, Pat Mckenna and Oscar Baker. Nev and Pat later joined the main group though didn't do the sprint drills.

    The mids included Aaron vandenBerg and Christian Petracca. The fowards and backs (Harry Petty, Jayden Hunt) had the usual players.   

     The coaches encouraged, interceptions, fast spreads and finding the "express lane" during simulations. 

    The coaches were.also setting up the first two or three kicks into the players. Goody hitting the mark regularly.

    Alex Neal-Bullen and Clayton Oliver receiving some physio work on the field.  

    Plenty of goal kicking practice, sets and snaps.

    Oh God. Please tell me it’s not true...

    ...that someone used the term “leggy blonde” in 2018. Please.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.
