    Hombre it’s just not cricket. Too many gringos chasing leather.

    OLD MAN ALERT:

    The team sheet on the MFC site hurts my eyeballs.  Not the players on it - the font, the sizing and the spacing. Took me way longer to figure out who is playing (and where) than is necessary. 

    Hopefully that is my only gripe with the MFC today.

    Not an old man alert (or maybe it is and I’m now an old man). 

    That team sheet graphic is terrible. There’s a great post in the now-closed pre-game thread explaining all the reasons why it’s awful.

    I missed the other post, possibly because my retinas were amidst an acute bout of PTSD caused by our media department

     (and anyone else who was unable to get a ticket yesterday)...  it looks like things are ok now as I just tried again and got my ticket  👍


     

    Thanks JTR, got my ticket.

    Possibly would not have searched again without your prompt.

    Addit, what was the 77 cents to secure the ticket about.

    I had a ticket, they say to upgrade for $8.40 to guarantee entry, then say something about getting it secured (more than 100 did it).

    Funny, I guess if they don't ask! Reminds me of the beggars in Kathmandu.

    Not all that fussed about the result but I want to be walking out of Ikon Park tonight with confidence that we’re ready to hit the ground running against Sydney next Thursday and that we’ll manage ok with a weakened forward line.

    Not only is our forward line not getting any better next week it’s actually getting worse without Kozzie.

    Our forward line are missing a few but I'm still bullish about those we will put out on the paddock. Also reckon Swannies backs are not that good. All depends on the mids. We win the pill and at least deliver it into the forwards a bit better than in the past we will win this.

    It looks like a CFC document.

    Yeah aside from McCartin and Rampey I can’t name another quality Sydney key/tall defender.

    As you said, it will depend on our quality of inside 50 entries and what kind of angle we’re taking our shots from.

    Score prediction lads?

    No Weitering helps us, just very worried about our deliver forward and our composure down back

    They signed Joel Hamling who will fill the void left by P McCartin and they also have Blakey.

    35 and strong northerly winds... wonder what it has to be to call it off

    From a buddy who just arrived at Ikon…

    For those driving to the game, at 5:10pm (now) plenty of parking within metres of Gate 5 (south east corner) on Princes Park Pde (between cemetery and Princes Park).

    It’s gonna be uncomfortable enough for us supporters, I really feel for the players, playing in this stifling heat and it’s just a practice match. Really should’ve been rescheduled.

    Filling fast. 10:1 blues:Dee's ratio 😛. As a brunswegian I know this is hostile territory. 

    Half the players having very chill warmup on royal parade end. Kolt is warming up. Spargs doing media. Player families lining up with the genpop to get in. Weird scenes but good to be here. 

    It is still stupidly hot outside. Why didn't they push back the start time when they saw the forecast? They moved the time of a Brisbane game.

    Anyone sign up for a digital membership? Wondering how long it takes to get the Kayo code sent.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
