WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
That was post Bali. Not sure how many games he played afterwards (I thought only the one), but not sure if Harley would get the same approval from the league. I may be wrong.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
I'm pretty sure they're not allowed. In lower grades down to knee length is allowed, if they are skin coloured. Ive never seen an AFL player wear longer than that while playing, nor compression socks.

TRAINING: 2 Weeks to Go
The write up on the melbournefc website said it was just load management, and they'd be back next session

Is that someone copping a head knock halfway through?

TRAINING: Tuesday 26th May 2020
You missed the best part of the video in your summary, praha. "Beats Gawn for contested ball, beats Langdon in contested ball, Beats clarry for contested ball".

Coronavirus: AFL & MFC
Mr McGowen has hardly laid out the welcome mat, has he? In her article on the AFL'S response to the Crows training breach, Caro claimed the weak response was due to the fact other clubs had done it too; specifically, two old Melbourne clubs. My first thoughts were Carltank and the Pies. Anyone have any inside info/goss?

Jones Smells New Beginning
Will be interesting to see what happens next year. With the supposed decrease in playing lists, do you keep a 32-33 yr old Jones over a young bloke? I'm not so sure

Uncovered Podcast on 186
Interesting podcast, but it doesn't really address exactly why 186 happened (what happened game day). It talks about what was happening, and had happened leading up to it, and the results, but not about the game itself (short of a bit of 'the boys were off'). Being 'off' doesn't lead to a 186 point smashing. And as TPF39 says, if they knew Schwab was gone, why would they dish up that?

Not doing themselves any favours, especially if they want to lobby to move the GF in future.

I suppose we don't even know what the revenue sharing model will be from here. May not simply be 'home team gets gate receipts' anymore. We'll have to wait and see

AFLW: 3 Dees in All Australian
Thought Dais was a bit stiff but hard to fit 4 Dees in. Paxy is a star. One of the all time greats of women's footy. I was listening to the ABC in January and one of the AFLW commentators and former coaches was asked who she would take between Paxy and another of the all time greats (can't remember who). She chose Paxy.

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs West Coast
The OMac haters are really standing out today. He did a very good job on Darling, and for the most part looked more confident and proactive. But according to some, he should never play another game and was as good as useless.

GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Gus still has no defensive bone in his body. Of all our inside kids happiest for him to go at the end of the year
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs West Coast
OMac playing well, at least. Don't think he's lost a contest and has looked far more proactive.

GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Our press leaks like a sieve We're unaccountable at stoppages We still can't kick for goal They can't miss

The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread
Can think of no better way than a major redevelopment of the MCG precinct and Richmond Station

TEAMS: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Both Brayshaw and Viney are named starting in the forward line. That gives us a few chop outs. With shorter quarters and langdon/Tomlinson playing close to 100% game time, we should be ok.

NON MFC: Round 01
I wish he was....

NON MFC: Round 01
Not sure which is worse. Having no crowd noise or having to listen to James Brayshaw commentating...

Coronavirus: AFL & MFC
Gary taking every precaution, given he's at least 87 so in one of the high risk groups.

Demonland SAFEHANDS Challenge
Thought this would be a bit of fun. Was going to do it by myself. But my 4 year old (who only 2 weeks ago told me she wanted to say "Go tigers" ?) saw me in my gear and decided to join in. Now she's running around the house in my Dees gear, saying "Go Maxy, Go Dees, we're Dees dad!" ?? Demonland - saving father/daughter relationships since 2020.
