Great minds SWYL !!!

I've been resisting the temptation to go out and buy a packet of darts all morning!!!

All this talk of darts has inspired me.  Off to the shop I go.

I thought it was odd not to replace Parfait with another like for like midfielder.

The question is, who comes out to replace Narkle. Is it a tall due to injury, or will they just make a change with the sub?

Extra big-bodied(sort of , but still tiny compared to Oliver)) midfielder maybe. 18 game career, and 1 game this year so far?????

    How much can you drink after a covid jab

    All of it. Except at even moderate levels I was off my trolley for two days, and then the fever and shivers hit. Prior to that I was floating somewhere between MDMA and weed and revelling in the free drugs, with only the occasional alcohol top-up. I now understand that my reaction was somewhat rare, but not unprecedented.

    Damn. Double dosed AZ and none of that.

    Might have to give Pfizer a go.

    Am I the only one that's been sitting at my desk all day but have done absolutely nothing? 

    I've managed to Photoshop (using 'multiply' layer blending mode) a red V over my work profile shot - it's now 2.10pm. The institution will greatly benefit from this.

    Scott is a bit like 'the boy who cried, wolf'.  He has a late change for nearly every game so it surprises no-one when he pulls that trick.  It is a silly game he plays.

    I still think there he will make a late change announced just before final teams are confirmed: about 6pm today.

    @Demonland Andy if we win tonight can you please repost that ‘royal rumble’ meme you did in the 2018 finals series and update it for this year?

    Edited by DeezNuts


    If adding Narkle in late to the emergencies is a tactic of Scott's its a strange one. If he was fit or even close to you would think he would already have been in there.

    Unless they have more late outs you would think this means Narkle will be the medi sub.

    Interesting...

    Same here.

    Fox have been playing previous contests between Melbourne and Geelong starting from a while back until now. I've been sucked in to watching them all.

    My main take was a reminder just how much Selwood CAN step up in big games.

    I find playing Lego with the kids quite calming. Maybe I should do that for a couple of hours.

    Barrel of nerves here, win this and we will win next week, but while confident, not overly!

    If it helps, over here in Adelaide, not one person at golf this morning wishes any form of goodwill or tolerance towards Geelong in this PF. All are scathing about the run that the Cats have received onfield across several years - but in particular, this year as a few capable teams (unexpected to most at the start of the season) have played far better football than Geelong and still lost by 'aided' margins.

    I have not seen such team resentment for years except for one occasion when the Dees played The Filth  at the 'G, sitting within the Members stand.

    I think even the 'honest' media have all abandoned the Cats in this match, as well.

    Carna Dees! Punish the *XYZ##$!** and remember, wiping the bum is the same as cleaning up the Cats.

    What's the use of naming emergencies if they can be replaced less than 24 hours after being named? 

    Geelong gave medi subbed a potential medi sub.

    Simpson has concussion..strange tgey didn't know that at selection.

    A fine cool day today in Perth. Some light scattered showers expected in the evening with light winds. Should be mostly clear though.

    Feel free to utilise the idea at will, no charge, of course. It is something that needs widespread exposure.

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
