We will be playing on a cow paddock tomorrow! Might help us. 

Surface looks very chopped up. Grass is a strange almost brown colour. MCG uses heat lamps to keep the grass growing in winter. I suspect they just rely on winter sun at the Showgrounds.

    Commentators going on and on about the Dawk's inconsistency. Well, what do you expect when the side is packed with inconsistent b-graders that other clubs were happy to off-load? 

    I can't understand why Dawkthorn have escaped media scrutiny. They've treaded water for five years. They don't have one a-grader (with the possible exception of Sicily) in the club that they've bought through from drafting for 10 years. They are in deep long-term trouble IMHO.

    They’re an absolute scrap-head challenge of a list. Lucky they have Clarkson.

    Frosty not doing too bad tonight and plenty of niggle.  All things being equal wld much rather have Frost running around in defence than Smith or Lever at this point.

    Who's getting the cash down at Glenferrie Road? They are almost like us in 2012. There must be very ordinary players on good coin.

    Dawks need to get a total of 25 points if they are to avoid their lowest ever score under Clarkson of 31 points (time reduction adjusted).

    It does look choppy but I’d doubt the huge  stands are exactly cutting out the sun light I would have thought DJ.

    Broken wrist for sure

    At least they aren't showing us replay after replay of the injury.  There have been a few where they took great delight in finding the best possible close-up angle to put on super slow-mo just to make us all nauseous.

    One of the all time classics right there Uncle.  Not even a replay either.  Channel 7 always very 'AFL compliant' ?

    Pies are so well drilled. Seems like a lot of mature heads in the group and minimal cocky kids. If only that was us.

    Yep. To quick for those umpires. About time they sort Treloar out. Just about throws every time in traffic.

    What about those Dee rejects. Frost I would say was just OK but Frawley and Scully were next to being liabilities.

    3 goals since 1st qtr. Ugh.  What a spectacle.

    Good thing the AFL rushed through the Clarkson holding the ball interpretation change, has really opened up the scoring.

    Frost is a better player than all of Lever, O Mac and Joel Smith but most around here can’t admit it just because he’s wearing a different jumper.

    Frost was huuuuuuuuuge all night. Nine touches, zero tackles and a couple of clangers for good measure. 

    Agreed that he’s a much better player than Smith though.

    I'll bite... 

    Tell me how I "clearly do not understand footy" when I think Tom Mitchell... The 2018 Brownlow medalist at 27 years old is not an A grade talent?

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
