Ouch. The thread title has changed to "vs Carlton" at half time. Over to you, Sydney...

    Surely the club appeals the JVR suspension. Was graded medium impact, McStay played out the game could argue it down to low impact surely?

    We can but I don’t think we will. A week for that is pretty right. It was definitely not a necessary action, and McStay had to go to the rooms for an assessment. 

    I’d give him a trophy if he did it to Cox tho. Wasn’t worth it on McStay, he’s a spud.

    Grundy is so inept as a forward, that I think bloody tomlinson would offer more playing there.

    This is a guy who played as a pure forward for Casey, looked so completely lost that they gave up at HT and played him ruck.

    He nerfs Gawn when he plays, which is an outcome we simply can't afford.

    Schache is not contested enough. So... either swing tomlinson or heck even Turner there, back in Spargo and a small forward line, just PLEASE don't play Grundy. Please.

    I hope David King is in the media this week saying how Melbourne should get 75% of the seats against Carlton because it's our home game 🤨

    Won't have to worry about Jack Martin. He's gonski

    So is Mckay ...likely

     

    McKay appears concussed so  (depending on Jesse Hogan’s mate, the Carlton doctors assessment) should miss next week.  
    Which may change out defensive set up

    Now that I think about it, the Swans player did headbutt his fist.

    Harmsey did his hammy this morning in the scratch match against Carlton reserves.

    While I don’t wish any player any injuries from us or the opposition they need to think outside the box and become inventive. Harmes while a good servant and loyal his style of football gas been surpassed.

    Watching Parker deep forward against Carlton, Trac plays deep on him.

    carlton not dealing with Sydney taking the game on or the slingshot 

    I haven’t seen enough of him, but could Disco play tall fwd roll to bring it to ground.

    The formula is so clear from these two finals:

    1. Attack from minute one, instead of when you're already multiple goals behind
    2. Kick goals instead of behinds (duh), i.e., score when you have momentum
    3. Nope just two.

    3. Have a forwardline with, wait for it, forwards

    • 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.

    • 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.
