Cornes clearly says incorrect and inflammatory nonsense so people react and talk about him.

    I enjoy it and it really doesn't matter. It's not a bad top 5. I love that we have so much quality these days we can be shirty about it though.

    I get Cornes is divisive but what's wrong with the list? Hard to argue with the top 4. Dangerfield should be replaced by Clarry.

    Not entirely sure that the issue is with this list. His opinion.

    Yawn. Cornes is bandwagon stuff for the short-term memory. He really lacks depth; rather, he looks for sensationalism placing it under wraps in order to look analytical. Within days, his opinions fragment, dissolve, rot - at least that provides him with a chance or two at finding another few bucks from another few 'non-critical' abstractions.

    I’m more inclined to agree with Clarko’s assessment that we have 8-10 All Australians at the moment

    I’ve heard those top three a bit recently. Funny, I remember in a particular game at the end of 2021 when halfway through the third quarter, the commentators were raving about Bontempelli. Oliver went on to him, Bontempelli was hardly seen again, and Melbourne dominated. Doesn’t that say something about the respective quality of the two players? It was, after all, a reasonably important game.

    I dont mind his list if you define it as - Which players can produce a burst/ quarter of elite footy to turn or win a game.  You always have to keep them covered.

    For the best footballers see coaches votes.

    You said it.

    Talk about clickbait.

    Kane's mastered the process and its now pretty easy to identify. 

    Talk to the hand Kane.

    SEN (read Collingwood's surrogate broadcaster) and it's hosts are a very hard listen now and have been ever since Hutchy took over.

    Super cringeworthy especially Radar and, aside from Brenton Sanderson's analysis on a Thurs, generally a very very boring lot that just talk AFL speak & pander to the Collingwood nuffies.

    Sando's session is available via the Thurs Whately podcast and is the only piece i bother listening too.

    ‘Top 5 Players’ makes the criteria very unclear, but if he’s saying the current top performing or in-form players, then the only one I’d strongly disagree with is Dangerfield.

    Agree Daz.

    • 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.
