Did he have a Package with him??

How about TMac for Lever. We get a quality backman and Tom will give us a minimum of 2 goals from turnovers each time we play Adelaide. We win in the forward half and win in the back half with one trade.

One of the most disgraceful umpiring exhibitions I have ever seen, particularly in the 2 qtr they seem to have no control or idea of what was going on. But the good teams overcome these challenges with skill and effort and good decision making. Hmmm, I went to Adelaide last week to see us route the crows, that was a beautiful thing, reckon I will just think about that for another week and consider the promise of things to come, bit like a fart I suppose?

Disappointing that 2 key players for the game against Geelong will not be there. Would love to know what Goodwin has to say to Lewis and Hogan about these stupid acts of frustration. One should know better and the the another hopefully learns from letting their team down. Be interesting to see who the replacements with be.

Finals here we come. Doggies won a flag, history repeats we go on to win 6 of the next 10. Tom MacDonald has a 100% disposal efficiency rating. Hogan to Kick 70+ goals Tommy Bugg to have best goal celebration in league and wins the "in your face" award. Gawn and Spencer to be the best ruck team in the league. Petracca to be called the magician as he befuddles the opposition from week to week. Viney lays 150 + tackles for the session. Watts to win B&F Surprise packets - 2 Smiths to impact with breakout years. Hunt to continue the rise

Am I correct in thinking that we have to have a minimum of 3 picks in the draft. If so we have Dunne's spot open and need to delist another 2 players. From the grapevine seems Dawes is gone and I believe Newton is our last uncontracted player so possibly that makes up the 3 positions. I find it hard to pick another one from the senior list.

Is it really possible that MFC who have been repeatedly been knocked back for a priority pick in recent years actual pick up one from the trading machinations with Brisbane for Dunne and pickup of Rockliff as well? Would have thought that pick 19 was far more valuable to Brisbane in their current environment. Would be very happy to accept this generosity but it seems to be a bridge to far for me.

Noticed Jarrad Lyons from Crows has not yet signed. Seem to remember that MFC was interested in him 2 years ago. Would he be still be a likely candidate to pick up?

Never thought I would say, "well done Paul Little". Its a strange and wonderful world at the best of times and I find it interesting and a bit disappointing that the buyer had no connection to the MFC. Good to see that the collection will remain as one.

Just what we need, another player that can not kick.

Last least we are consistent. Another Traditional Melbourne send off for a coach.

Just another opportunity lost, I look forward to the days that we can capitalize on these opportunities. Just too disappointing to dwell on. Too young to maintain the rage maybe? Also I understand that good teams beat the umpires but today was something else. I think its is about time the AFL removed OPSM as a sponsor they are obviously not doing their job. The amount of frees they miss underneath their noses is extraordinary. Maybe bifocals should be issued across the board.

Its a beautiful thing

Why would any opposition club pay tmac big dollars when he can consistently give them 2+ goals in turnovers each week. The quintessential 19th player.

Only MacDonald could get away with a falcon mark.

Finest case of butchery by MFC players I've seen in a while. Senior players have got to get their act together.

Not too worried about the ins and outs. We are starting favorites, I hope the lessons of Essendon are still at the forefront of each players mind and never forgotten.

No false dawn here. We are 5 & 5 after ten with a young side without any A graders. We have an exciting young group with possibly four or five that can develop into A Graders( it takes time) and if we snag a couple more via trades and draft then look out. Sure we missed an opportunity last week, but we are still a work in progress with a big upside.

See no value at all. No no no no no no

Always worries me when he has the ball in hand. The one stat that I look at is the number of times TMac's turnovers directly results in a goal to the opposition. I am pretty sure that the opposition coach put him down for 2 or 3 goal assists before each game. Until he addresses this issue I doubt his value to the side.

Yes just one of those days when the bounce of the ball just didn't go our way. Always thought we were in the game just couldn't string the goals together and gain momentum. If Hogan had his kicking boots on and MacDonald didn't give away his weekly 2 to 3 goals in turnovers this game could have been really close in the end. From an umpiring perspective the thing taht annoys me is just how many times the doggies threw the ball instead of handballing and not get penalised.

Cannot even remember last week now. Go dees

Cannot remember which quarter but Frost and Brayshaw clashed heavily this may have affected Brayshaw's game. Fierce competitiveness seems to be the mantra of this new MFC group. Well done Dees

Its a beautiful thing.

Who would believe anything that Dank states. Must have done creativity writing school. His next fictional work I believe is "Pride and Integrity". Barrett must be slow on the uptake to take Dankism on face value.
