Petracca training incident
Being a lifelong asthmatic I can fully understand the idea behind it. Swimming was the only thing that developed my lung capacity to a point where I was able to ease off on medications. Having said that, surely there are other, safer, ways of doing it??? Also, if this was a preseason training drill, why are we still doing it? It's game time, let's get some skills training happening and retain fitness levels, rather than pushing to improve. No wonder players look tired on game day and can't dispose properly.

PREGAME: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Agree with this. I figured they were going for a 'safety in numbers' approach. Whereby if we didn't take the mark, and couldn't crumb it, there'd be defensive pressure on hand immediately. Unfortunately it makes it harder to score at the same time through the congestion.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DECLAN KEILTY
Me too. Could we call them Mac and Deca?
-
PREGAME: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Congrats to yourself and Dec of course. I had a feeling something was up when you'd gone very quiet, and I saw a few others mention similar. I really feel like Dec is one of those few players that will improve at the highest level, so based on his already good form, if that happens he'll be there to stay and quickly become a fan favourite. Good luck to you both. Feel good story of the week.

It's not a good sign when you're biting your fingers, just for the team list.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BEN BROWN
Ben Brown would be useless with us because his number 1 avenue to goal is free kicks. We're not allowed to receive any inside f50, so he'd be lucky to get a kick.

Josh Kelly
Good, he's just another accumulator.

The preseason we didn't have
The good old Golden Ticket is alive and well.

The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
Any love for Ben Keays at the Lions? Drafted as a mid but hasn't put it together, but now racking up goals in the NEAFL after a shift up forward. Lays a tackle so the defensive pressure is there also. He is a local lad though so might be hard to convince a move is the go, although if he's not getting senior game time. Is he worth a look?

The 2019 Mid Season Draft
If only he'd added 'but after an incredible collapse ended up all out for 365' it would've made sense.

Jordan Lewis is absolutely cooked, never pick him again
That really depends on other factors. If it were just Jordy then no, however if a Hawk or Tiger for example were to do the exact same thing, then I'm sure any rules would become flexible.

GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
Embrace that anger WB, welcome to the dark side. To answer your question though, ah for [censored] sake!

GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
Our skills are the worst in the league Do we use footballs at training?
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
Good luck with that. Demons i50 are invisible for umpires, unless they infringe.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
I think you're mostly right WB, but not sure about the dew making us fumble. I think we're good enough at that ourselves. No skills. Hore has shown he can almost break even against Riewoldt. Send TMac forward, we need a target.

GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
why was he calling viney to play on? Went straight back

GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
We'll win this by 10 goals if they start paying the throws

GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
ANB should've buried him then. If you want to stand on the line waiting for me to take you over, you're in trouble. Weak

GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
Sounds good, looked good, but need to take the bloody mark!

GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
I was thinking Lockhart goes back as the Jetta replacement. We'll know soon enough. I don't have much faith in us doing anything other than bomb it in at the moment.
