BT - “ANB was lucky”…I think it is time to turn down the volume.

He's incredibly insightful around the intricacies of this match.

He's mentioned look at all those blue beanies about 5 times.

So Lever had a fifty paid for being to close to the mark a few weeks back. Has that rule been changed 

Only for us.

Bad kicking = bad footy

Most of the misses (that made the distance) have shanked to the left.

Instruction from here.... aim for the right hand post.

P.S. can the Magpie army pls start chanting.... we might kick straighter (training background effects)

Completely shut down their run and carry just so inaccurate.

Should be a clear 3-4 goals in front.

Friggen let them off the hook.

Kozzy should be asigned to him on kick ins Nick won't go if he is near him.

That is correct.... and why you dont have Spargo on the mark for any of his kick ins.

ALL THE LITTLE THINGS!

Apart from Fritsch no forwards. Kozzie is a real worry - has done nothing for weeks. 

If only he did not go for the mark of the century every time.

My early take - whatever happens today, I've seen enough to think our style of play will hold up better than the Pies in a final.

Kozzie has been rubbish for weeks. His constant mark of the year attempts cost the team multiple goals every week. It’s a real problem and the coaching staff need to get to work with him or send him to the VFL to find form. Playing a man down today with him out there. So frustrating as he can be a match winner and has the potential to be one of the best players in the league.

They’re more skilled and their defence is too good for our attack (such as it is). On the turnover they look incredibly dangerous, we look like we we’d be lucky to score. That’s very simply the story of that half. We’re in it, but playing as ugly and fantastically inefficient as we are (which is now in our heads), can’t see how we pinch it.

Same old story. Forwards are [censored] except Frisch & kicking bad 2nd year in a row against them. Made that Spud Cox look like a champion because Grundy refused to man him up. Grundy not worth the money he is being paid.

I’m actually ready for Kozzie to be dropped to the VFL. Just all at sea with the way he is playing and needs to realize he’s not above team play. So many opportunities for him to be at the fall of the ball but he’s no where near or worse trying to take mark for the year about 10m from where the ball actually is

It’s in our hands.

Play a bit smarter and kick straighter we win this.

Just don’t think we’re that smart.

Looking like he's being SEVERELY overpaid this season for his output.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
