Doesn’t mean you have to keep saying it over and over and over again, especially in the Non-MFC thread. We get it, we all know what happened. You reminding us at any and every opportunity isn’t gonna change what happened so why do it?

binman - I haven’t watched any games this weekend but looked at the current scores and thought exactly the same as you predicted.   Bizarre. 
Do different clubs load differently ??🤔🤔🤗

According to Libby Birch, it sounds as if collectivey clubs are taking a different approach to their high performance programs this year.

And then there is individual program differences- eg the cats model of managing players ad opposed to ours of not doing so.

But I was more referring to the bye period.

Every year for the last 5 years or so there are crazy results around the mid point of the season.

A big factor is the accumulative fatigue all teams experience at the half way point of the season.

Another is the aforementioned differences in programs, including when they do a big block of intensity and density and how they manage the bye period.

It's all made worse by the AFL's greed. They should go back to all teams having their bye at the same time.

But that ain't gonna happen because the AFL, nor fox and 7, dont want a football free weekend.

So instead we have the ridiculous situation of byes being spread over several weeks meaning it's all over the place in terms of when teams play each other - eg, both coming off a bye, only one coming off a bye, one team not yey having their bye and the other 2 weeks post bye etc etc.

And this year it's even more absurd with the teams playing in OR having 2 byes.

It is just ridiculous. 

 

Start practicing the 'No Reid, no Eagles' taunt because it is going to be fresh and current for 15 years.

Like having Judd but no Cousins, Kerr, Fletcher or Chick.

Lol. The ultimate winning culture midfield.

Some people enjoy being miserable. How you deal with disappointment is a choice - I don’t know why some people choose self-flagellation over and over.

Eagles are putrid. 

Nick Larkey is wasted at North

So is it “no Reid, no Eagles”?

Maybe we can scoop both Reid and Larkey with some clever trading 🤔🙄🤗

Clarko would probably need to be on the bench now to steady the team, but because he can't control himself he has to stay in the box.


Roos really shot themselves in the foot last year not getting Reid. That win hasn't exactly built a winning culture and cost them a generational player.

Loyalty is a rare thing in today's game so you have to admire him for that. Maybe we'll see him in red & blue four years from now when both his knees are shot. 

… and we win a Flag with him? Awesome!

  • 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

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • 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.
