Good question, I felt like it was a poster each for Kade and Trac but might be wrong. 

We hit the post 3 times in total, pretty sure Kade did it twice cos I was laughing cos i had him to score 2 in my multi.

Bets and vested interests win out when it comes to remembering things you would know better than me 🙂

Mine was dead the moment '2-goal a game' Mihocek decided to bottle it.

Agree, great to see his commitment both in the signing and on the field. I've seen enough of his early skillset, scoring (albeit not recently), defensive pressure, one grab marking and fine delivery, etc to be happy.

I do wonder where this places Jordon tho.

Well done Kade, well done MFC.

How the MFC has changed. Players used to 'wait until season's end' blah, blah, blah... but now they are lining up to re-sign. We are recent premiers, a destination club, and a genuine contender for the flag in 2023. Good times.

These kind of signings are a great indicator of internal cohesion and confidence. Although we can probably fit only 2 small forwards into our 22, Chandler is most likely sitting in 1st place at the moment, with Spargo and Kozzie in such poor form. I also like the fact he often plays well in the last quarter. 

After the bye, hopefully his fatigue has levelled out, and he has enough recovery energy to kick the goals he was kicking earlier in the season.

Rarefied air, no distractions, nothing else to focus on but a shot at a flag.

Hopefully he will be the next one to sign, he doesn't get much love on here but is a very good player, IMO and we shouldn't lose him.

YES!!! 3 more years for the Chin Chandler. Great perseverance has paid off.

I reckon your angst should be directed at far more senior players than him who have been struggling to kick regulation goal. *cough* Gawn and Trac *cough*

Yeah but they are executed their main rolls.

Chandler is there to pressure and kick goals when he gets his chance!

Love it. He is like a little terrier on field. Chases, tackles and attacks. 

Yes, and more and more he can be seen directing traffic.

Well done to Kade. He's had to wait for opportunity and he's grabbed it this season and proved he belongs at AFL level. Just needs to straighten his radar and start nailing his shots like earlier this season!

Can someone update Kate's (i.e. Google's) Wikipedia page please?

Fixed. I amended it. 👍🏽 But why did you call him Kate? Typo?

Can people stop saying Kozzie is in such poor form.........its plain wrong and annoying

You are a total legend @WalkingCivilWar. 

(Yes, typo.)

On top of all these fine comments about Chin there is one thing I've always loved about him, he's got the swagger.

You can tell with guys like these that they dream of kicking a goal and have goal sense, you need to be a little greedy as a specialist small forward. Obviously we don't want David King BBQ levels but you have to want to kick a goal and on top of his pressure and running work rate, he always wants that goal. There's a heap of small forwards in the league that are role players and get the blinkers in front of goal. Confident he'll get consistency and become a real threat with limited opportunities. 

Hope he bags a hatful next week.

No we all love Kossie BUT he is not in good form. First game vs Dogs  that's what he can do and simply he is a little undisciplined and not in the right crumbing spots too many times.

Needs a small wake up call.
