I have never seen the footy media so determined to come up with some reason why Melbourne won't win, it's incredible. suggesting the Bulldogs might be more fresh than us, given we've had 1 game in 28 days and they've been to just about every state in that time. 

 

Media haven't suggested Dogs will be more fresh than us, quite the opposite, The suggestion is they will be match hardened and we won't. 

Burgess & fitness staff will have a plan in place to ensure hardness is there, we are having a tough hit out & dogs are not as need to recover so can work both ways....

an equally ridiculous suggestion on their part, especially considering they aren't playing a scratch match this weekend. 

“They spent all last night damaging the Daulton, after a dodgy Vindaloo….”

Best week off ever.

Since we’ve decided to get all trousery and talk of tales of spiked lasagna, orificial expulsions  and what have you, here’s a legendary homegrown example. It’s one that Goody, as a former Crow albeit one not there on that day, would be well aware of. 💨

we won't just win

I agree that the media narrative is tilted towards talking down the Demons and talking up the Doggies.

I don't know. Every media person I've heard venture a tip thus far has picked Melbourne. Keep calm. (Hard, I know.)

Great I’d prefer that everyone thinks the Scragging umpire darlings are favourites 

our guys need to worry about only one thing - 100% effort and focus from first bounce to final siren 

our best is better than theirs IMO we play our best footy we should win if we don’t they get a look in 

Members Zoom meeting with Maysie, Gary Pert, Troy Chaplin and Jim Plunkett.

In summary:

1. Maysie's hamstring is "all good",
2. First thing this morning Troy Chaplin bought coffee for both Goodwin and Yze - aspersions were being cast as to whether this was a Machiavellian coaching takeover coup.

On a lighter note maybe Choco wants to coach another flag and has planned to fix up Goody and Ooze. I would be watching out in tomorrow practice match for any of the emergencies hoping for a position to become vacant.

An old footy coach from VFL days tells the story at Hawthorn, that you never went near Ian Bremner in finals especially if you played in his position. Or the year they beat North to become premiers. On the last Thursday before the granny Kennedy lined the players up in 2 lines, one on one contest with the ball thrown in between to see who came out on top. It was I believe brutal no holds barred. Kennedy's commando's and imagine being paired off with Leigh Mathews....scary 

Well, that’s shizen

Semi-secret GF preparation is sought ... the footy media has many hangers-on, many mouths to feed, cannot have exclusive access to the MFC to create a story or make one up, no whispers to pounce upon.

Nice, ain't it?

 

If the Choco Conspiracy Theory is real - and I'm not saying it's not - then security must sweep all training venues for snipers now that Goody and OOze have taken a bait and survived.
