McVie looks pretty good.

Great singer. RIP

 

What sort of role is McVee playing down back? Can he be a small lockdown type to quell the Charlie Cameron, Stengle, Papley types? Could he replace Hibberd long term?  Hoping he’s not just another rebounder as we’re well stocked for hbfs, but have a clear list gap for small lockdown defenders since Jetta retired and Hibberd is on his last legs.

do you not know how mfcss works?

when things are glum there's worse to come!

Mine disappeared sometime around 11pm on Saturday 25th September 2021. Hasn’t been seen since

McVee is the interesting one. Come from the clouds. Hibbo playing twos...

that's the one that surprised me too. Hibbo has the harder body and probably should be playing round one, but youthful exuberance is a beautiful thing, and he kind of looked like what I hoped Joel Smith would be out there. definitely one to watch.

i missed most of q2 cos of meetings, but based on what i did see of those four quarters:

- lever won't play round 1; plugger back, Fritsch comes 

Unless he’s badly injured Lever is best 22 and will continue to be so 

McVee was very good, as were Bowey, Rivers and Hibberd .

Someones gonna miss out.

Rapt with Kozzie in the midfield and Hunter really adds something.


I'll be honest, I thought that McVee would be the least likely of the 2nd year players to debut this year. But based on that game, he'll be pushing for round 1. He was excellent 1 on 1, read the play well, and his disposal was neat and effective.

Others to impress were Hunter, Rivers, Bowey and Chandler. If Kozzie is playing further up field, then Chandler should be a lock for round 1. Rivers should be challenging Harmes for a spot in the side. 

The Grundy/Gawn combo went as how I thought it would. Gawn is vastly superior around the ground, and despite kicking 3 between them, neither were effective as marking forwards. Grundy's ruckwork was largely ineffectual, and was cumbersome at ground level.

Lever loves a rolled ankle, srsly. 

I swear he stuffs up his ankle every week and someone hobbles on…

If it’s just a rolled ankle he’ll be fine, depends on if any ligament damage.

He was doing run throughs on the boundary just after he did it so doubt it's really serious. The worry is not will he play round 1 but home times will he hurt it during the year. it's like his ankles are made of glass.


I watched most of the second half, without commentary of course, which number was McVee? I think he was a the skinny kid with a shaved head.

Sadly couldn’t see any of it. 
Any observations on JVR and Shasche. 

Snache spudded up. JvR hobbling.

Neither really got into it


Watching McVee reminded me of Ricky Petterd, his movement was similar.

Hope it’s not the dreaded syndesmosis. Lever was very good before he went off

People splaying Lever won’t play rd1, due to a rolled ankle. Is that hyperbole and MFCSS?? 

Nope. Club said he’s a chance to play against Richmond in the practice match next week.

41.

It was just a practice game so won't read to much into it but there was a problem with delivery inside the forward 50. Too many times it went to a saints player. Is there something familiar in  what I am saying.

  • 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.
