I think @12345_54321 deserves an apology?

Certainly individuals as always so quick to shut peolle down without actually giving them a decent chance...

How can Tommo be dropped?

Was one of our best defenders last week. And isn't Petty undercooked?

If this is directed at me I asked a genuine question. I didn’t shut anyone down and certainly won’t be apologising. The poster ‘guaranteed’ us something last time which didn’t eventuate. I’m entitled to ask a question this time around and don’t go playing the nice guy now all of sudden now dd.

All I said is that I hated his info. Still do.

I don't agree with dropping Tomlinson, and I am a firm believer that we won't win a flag this year unless we get another decent tall marking target up forward, which seems to be Petty.

I suppose it was the old three into two doesn't go.

Once you assume Petty fit one of Smith or Tomlinson had to go.

If this works it may be a master stroke as both Petty and Smith can play forward and back thus allowing flexibility in weeks to come. Mind you I'm not convinced that Smith is a forward but it's all part of the ride

 

The betting market has come in slightly in Geelong's favour if that means much.

Geelong $1.96 - Melbourne $1.84

Gamble responsibly. :P

I’ll wait to see the teams named before thinking this could be the dumbest selection in MFC history…

100% thought you were going to say - Mind you I'm not convinced that Smith is a back but it's all part of the ride. 🤷‍♂️

Thommo!  Don't have to be dead to be stiff!  Thought he was fantastic last week.

Great game - given a chance to shine and seized it well. At least he is on the bench. Very handy for clearances/spoils.

Overall, the team looks strong, adaptable and able. How will Badloss configure the onfield? Who will nullify Close, a significant feeder and gatherer?

I was late to this news but I am strongly opposed to dropping Tomlinson for Petty. It just feels wrong. Tomlinson’s game against Collingwood was too good to warrant Petty being an automatic inclusion. The harsh result should have, as unfortunate as it may be, been imposed on Petty, not Tomlinson. 

Jordon for Spargo the correct call in Oliver’s ongoing absence. 

JJ gets a game ahead of Bowey. No Oliver, give him the time he needs. Whilst it’s disappointing the club seems really focused on bringing players back fit and ready to play. Salem a great example. Be really interesting watching Petty tomorrow night. He looked comfortable forward against the Hawks so where’s he playing tomorrow??

 

I wish they would end all the smoke and mirrors stuff with Clarry.

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
