LOL. Who on earth is that TC?

Think itโ€™s the beautiful Hedy Lamar, movie actress who interestingly was a brilliant scientist and who invented frequency hopping technology, which led to WiFi and GPS tracking.

Veronica Lake? Just a guess Hollywood Starlets are not my special topic for Hard Quiz.

EL JEFFO CANTINA Another 5 goals after 5 last week, well well well.

Yes, but he needs to be able to bring that with him if he gets a game with the seniors; I donโ€™t know what it is, nerves, lack of aggression or what, but he does seem to fold at the top level. And letโ€™s not forget that as good as five goals is, the first three were pretty much gifts.

Definitely is her. That's a still from her naughty 1933 movie Ecstasy I think. Doubtless it was banned here. It's on the internet archive https://archive.org/details/ecstasy-1933.hedy-lamarr

They still have some cattle - certainly enough to not lose by 90 at home

I think the main problem last time he was in the As was a broken hand??

Correct, then Goodwin and brains trust played him on zero form and he played accordingly. The last 3 weeks he has been building and 10 goals 2 pionts in last two games means his form is white hot!

These are all positive comments and show the breadth of performance that coaches are looking at. There's an obvious development trend there so good. I assume the negatives or areas to improve are also examined with as much analysis and feedback given to the individuals.

there are some extremely good comments which indicate where the experience is being acknowledged and how this can eb an example for the newer players, building confidence and ability.

This photo-image accompanying the reviews is terrific. Facial expressions of the players surrounding coach Taylor Whitford is classic. Absolutely reeks of team buy in.

@binman was Brad Greens letters to Members to be regular, irregular or regularly irregular? Agree members communication is generally poor.

That was also one of my beefโ€™s last year SONS but I now feel that we have gone from a media famine to a media feast, I am having trouble keeping up with our MFC website with all the information coming through. Not sure who is in charge but they deserve a big pat on the back.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, itโ€™s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. Itโ€™s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologistย  Itโ€™s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now letโ€™s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmedย the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).ย

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Caseyโ€™s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckmanโ€™s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demonsโ€™ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
