    Small forwards. Rioli and Ryan kicking goals and have set up most of the goals/scoring shots. 

    Wingman. Gaff and Jetta gut running through the middle of the ground.

    Ruck/midfield coheasion. Natanui tapping to advantage and down midfielders throats.

    KPF. Kennedy, Darling and Waterman taking marks i50 and kicking straight.

    All the above are things the MFC lacked in 2019.

    Anyone else find these sort of nicknames childish and tedious or is it just me?

    No everyone sticks it up us constantly. 

    Give it to the p@%@k$ they've earned it and most of their supporters wouldn't think twice before rubbing our face in the dirt.  Particularly the scumsters.

    Totally Agree RN. There isn't a team i despise more than the Scum.

    Hopefully the Eagles continue the rout. Just making up the numbers are the druggies, they got there but they may as well not have.

    Great ??

    Should've left with Dennis. Wait then we'd be left only with BT, Darce and Ling.

    Richo gets a reprieve in my book, loved his emotion when he realised the tigs were gonna win it in 2017 (might happen again this year)

    Amazing WC ? got away with it all

    Players flat Lining and some dying. Benny still pinging around from trouble to trouble. 

    Worsfold, a trained Chemist totally oblivious to the mayhem around him...Not. 

    The last GF i have been to was 2006. Great game, but Meth Coke could have played another game, they were that juiced. Tonight the Chemist Coaches against them. 

    The irony....

    Let's not forget his mate Gardiner who was in it up to his 'Coffin Cheater' colours!

    Throw in the underrated Jamie Cripps as well mono, a real goal poacher. Massive headaches for defences.

    Does anyone else think the bye between Round 23 and the first weekend of finals kills off interest, at least for neutral supporters? I've spoken to a few avid AFL supporters whose teams didn't make the finals, and we all agree that interest levels haven't just dropped but have virtually disappeared.

    For balance, I note that Gil MaClalchlan has said that since the bye was introduced, TV ratings, spectator numbers and (I think) revenues have all increased. It is a small sample (of seasons), and could be distorted by the teams playing, but it's only fair that I point out what he claims to be evidence which supports the bye.

    The bye has certainly lessened my already waning interest.  Yet another typical AFL knee jerk reaction to Lyon’s failed tactic of resting his key players in a dead final round.  It was tried once,and failed, but they made the change anyway.  

    Clueless.

    Being overseas at present it only just struck me that there is only one match this weekend in Melbourne.

    Is this a first for the first round of the finals.

     

    And if whining Scott had his way there would be no games at the home of football!

    From what I took from the “Brayshaw had a great season” article earlier in the week I wouldn’t be certain that they feel that the season was all that bad ?

    Well I wasn't aware that WCE were shielded - I don't live in WA and journos elsewhere didn't bring it to my attention.   I'm not sure which is worse - a cover up of possible offences or excuses (and worse) made for the proven guilty.  Actually I do in terms of the effect on me - Essendon was particularly grating, especially after we got pilloried for tanking when lots of others had tanked, some more blatantly.  Essendon didn't need to try to make that 'defence' before journos were falling over themselves to protect and bolster them!  

    Wasn't having a go Sue @McQueen @Bobby McKenzie @Ethan Tremblay can all tell you how bad the media are over here. They never say anything against the Eagles 

    The West Australian and Channel 7 WA are absolute cheerleaders and the continued worship for Cousins, Kerr etc is an embarrassment

    Credit to him and the hardwork put in by Phil Narkle and Ryan

    • 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 return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
