I'd like to see Goody reprise that pre season catch up with Mike Sheehan down at the Sorrento Hotel but with the premiership cup on the table this time.

    Maybe because it's pre-season, maybe because it's a highly controlled environment, maybe because he's had a huge weight taken off his shoulders. Goody seems very relaxed, and more assured with his speaking.

    Yep, a premiership will do that for you.

    And there's no question; it's Two Twenty-two, not Twenty Twenty-two.

    Still, a premiership in either will be just fine...

    I'm not sure if any post could make this thread veer further off-course Timothy, but just imagine if Archbishop Desmond Tutu had passed away at 2.22 on Tuesday 22.2.22.

    Veer? That was too good for it not to, Mr Stone, to be sure. Brilliantly unearthed, too.

    Richie Benaud sends his best from the other side.

    1, 1 was a race horse

    2, 2 was 1, 2

    1, 1  1, 1 race and 2, 2 1 1 2.

    They do seem like very vigorous training drills in that video.

    Is this just a repeat of the first post, with a different photo?

    Almost the same, but this time he's trolling the pedants by saying "hone in" instead of the correct "home in".

    I thought Goody wouldn't be around in 22. I'm a fickle fan but I'm glad he is still coach.

    Gone from his job on the line to the club's most successful coach in close to six decades.

    You got me thinking, Mr Stone; I realise I've been in the camp  muariesy's quip identifies. So, online I went, and Merriam-Webster there has detailed etymological discussion approving both for the purpose of saying (to use M-W's suggested confusion-avoiding alternative) 'zero in' on something.

    Regardless, I'm expecting Goody's next update to refer to zero injuries or other issues, with skills and fitness being further honed, and all directed towards a home premiership.

    Pffft!   Miriam Webster?   How many games did she play?

    Isn’t it strange how a lot of coaches have been on the chopping block then gone on to win the premiership. You look at Hardwick, Clarkson, Thompson. Their fans wanted them gone, their boards stuck with them and they all had dynasties. 
    Hopefully we’re at the beginning of ours.

    Yes, I did! Hitherto the only Miriam Webster I knew of was the dictionary.

    except it's merriam-webster not miram, but close enough for a cigar (but not a premiership cigar)

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
