Maybe it's just me but I have a good feeling about tomorrow. We are badly due and tbh Pies are in a good spot to spank given their injuries. It would be nice to end the year with at least one win against a big club. 

Just getting this sense we will win comfortably.

Wandered over to Gosh's this morning.  Appears training was cancelled. 

The rehab squad was out there.

Joel Smith running straight lines with a tracker. Looks strong and has bulked up around the hip area.

Aaron Nietschke and Tom Sparrow walking and running laps.

Jake Lever was doing lots of ball work with two trainers. Appeared to be moving without restrictions. 

Training Cancelled?? Just like training camp then... Bit too cold and wet for our guys possibly Hnmm

I went passed on Wednesday but training had been cancelled, then TV interviews happened Thursday, so did they train then? If they did then Friday would be limited  perhaps, although having watched a few Friday sessions, they are no more than a 45 minute stretching exercise with a few kicks on goal. So you could do Thursday and Friday but at this stage why bother?

Methinks Hore comes in for Lever as a late out and this was always what was going to happen.

If Lever does play then I have no idea why Hore wasn't chosen over OMac.

One of many perplexing selection decisions this season.  I realise many are by requirement through injury and niggles that we are unaware of but this one is a cracker.

I am unable to bring myself to watch any MFC games for as long as Goody persists with Oscar from here on.  Just too depressing and all i feel is pitty on the players around him who are mostly up to the contest and the team as a whole.  Today's game is so punishing there is no way of effectively covering off being a player (or half a player) short down back.

I have Hore ranked as our No.1 defender for the year and No.6 ranked player overall.  An amazing first up year for the rookie.

Understandable reasons ...either something isn't quite right with Hore, Goody is preserving his young frame for next season (but if that's the case why risk him at VFL level??)

Maybe there's some other sensible reason we are unaware of.  If not, something has seriously gone haywire within the Fd or with Goody himself.

The problem is there's never been a time in our game where the forwards have received the softest free kicks like this year.

O Mac has to adapt to this if he's to have a future as a defender. Giving away 3 free kicks to Lynch no matter how soft they were, was too many.

Without the frees against, O Mac's performance against Tom Lynch would've been commendable.

Did omac give lynch 3 free kicks?

Or is that a #omacmyth?

Well yes because he had 3 free kick against right next to his name on the stat list. They were also when he was on Lynch. 

So you look a bit silly here mate..

Sorry dazzler. I'm confused. Why do I look a bit silly?

Because it's not an #omacmyth, it's a fact.

I'm still confused.  Did you miss my question marks?

And is it a fact that at all three of omac frees were against lynch? I would be surprised but don't know.

But you must be right. Because you said it is a fact.

I'll have a look at AFL pro and check, just to check the facts.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
