That seems to be a dangerous undertaking Deelightful !

As you well know cheer squads are notorious for the nut jobs among them.

Well, I think I am the notorious nut job today 😂

Wearing my Dees scarf, cheering for the Suns, sitting 10 rows from the ground amongst the (surprisingly quiet) Sydney nuffies...!

 

I hate the Bombers with a rabid passion. 

 

Bombers are the new ‘bruise free’ footy side. Love the ball in open space, hate getting dirty to win a contest.

Under no circumstances should they play finals

C'mon Crows! Two early goals, and Brisbane is looking very slow.


Crows scare me. I want them to beat Brisbane but I don’t want them to play finals

They will be a 3-7 side next year.

They're a quality side for sure. They play the right way but are still at a point in their development where flair is encouraged. Very dangerous, just like we were in 2018 and of course 2021.

Yep. Will be interesting to see what happens when Walker finishes up. 

Currently watching the Brisbane Lions theme playing on Channel 7 for the Women's soccer. Hope it's not an omen.

I'm at the g.

Didn't realise Fitzroy were playing here today 

 

North lead a premiership favourite for over a half and challenged a top 8 contender right until the end losing by single digits.

Clearly don't need draft assistance with their performance and talent on their list.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
