I'm convinced that one day Langdon will be in the injury report with "self-bitten tongue" 

Those of us who concentrate with our tongue out always know when to retract to avoid a bite.

An instinctive, intuitive and instant self preservation technique, not dissimilar to avoiding tackles.

    I'm starting to think people given the name Max at birth have been given some sort of psycho-physiological boost that makes them grow above 2 meters tall. Max Gawn, Max King, Max Lynch, Max Ramsden, etc. (And didn't we also have a draftee called Max King who was a ruckman but never quite made the big time? Or have I remembered incorrectly?)

    Max Smart (Don Adams) 171 cm 😱

    I'm sticking with my assessment. After all, Get Smart was a spoof of the James Bond genre and as such I'll claim that Mel Brooks as the show's creator deliberately called a smaller stature actor "Max" as part of the whole spoof theme. Just like Australians call oversize people "Tiny" and shorter people "Lofty".

    He is. I reckon they'll play him in the 2s to get match conditioning.

    A Sunday game at Frankston. A lovely ground but the local crowd can be lively to say the least.

    A great sausage sizzle as I recall

    I don’t understand why Tmac was training on that last week? Given out abysmal history with foot injuries why weren’t we being somewhat precautionary? I’m seeing players like Petty,  BBrown and Trac played when it’s clear they’re not right. I’m concerned we’re being  overly cavalier with injuries atm and starting to pay the price.

    It’s not cheap to get scans done so they probably went on the assumption that it was a small tweak and when it continued to get worse after training they did the scans.

    Petracca was ill, and put his hand up as being fit to play last week. What did the club do wrong there?

    Goodwin was directly asked if Brown's fit last night and responded with a simple "yes". There's no other evidence or even rumour to suggest he's injured, so maybe his poor form is just that, poor form.

    Not sure there's really an issue here right now.

    Jon Ralph just announced on Fox Footy that Tmac will miss a minimum of 12 weeks and could be out potentially for 12 months with a Lisfranc tear in his foot. We'll have no choice now but to persist with Weid as the second tall, which isn't such a bad thing... Other than that I would love to try Petty forward again. We have Tomlinson as a decent 3rd tall defender and was a standout last year before he did his ACL. Time to throw the magnets around after two losses in a row.

    You can almost guarantee that is exactly what Goodwin won't do.

    Are you saying that as a criticism or a compliment?

    Given all the other news today there is no way Petty survives this Test.

    There is a picture of Rosman in the MFC Gallery of training pics. He is kicking and so I am guessing his hamstring looks to be minor.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
