  1. First thought is no Steven May. Secondly why have non MFC players. Then I thought they have to be born in Vic. Shame I think I missed the point 😅
  2. I believe the umpires are the arbiters of time. The time keepers start and stop the clock and blow the siren. The umpires signal the end of the game after they hear the siren. Probably a fifty as is did delay play. We were told to play to the umpires whistle not the siren or anything else.
  3. Naughty to use quotation marks here. Who are you quoting? My guess is yourself.
  4. You are going to keep people accountable! My goodness you certainly have tickets.
  5. I've been calling him plugger for years. Perish the thought of reusing nicknames. Maybe we could call him Macca, that would be original 🤔
  6. Thanks for that. Nice of you to ignore the premise. Perhaps you would like a forward line of players over 2metres tall. The real point is you don't need to have 2metre + forwards to have a successful side.
  7. Don't bomb it in. You play to your strengths. And most of them can take a mark. So if Melbourne are the best defensive side how would we man up? We could cover 2 or 3 but the others would cut us up. It is about quality not height.
  8. I don't care how tall a forward is. I couldn't care if they were all under 190cm. Kicking a winning score is the aim, made easier by a tight defence. What about a forward line with Charlie Cameron, Dustin Martin, Toby Greene, Christian Petracca, Willi Rioli and Bayley Fritch. How would the average defence handle that? You don't need to be tall to be a good forward.
  9. What other kind of marks are there? Or does it mean kicks kicked within the forward 50?
  10. You can say that again. Oh, you did.
  11. Don't do it Crackers, not at the current price of petrol!
  12. I had a chat to the umpires at 1/4 time at the local footy today. I complimented them on a good job. Then I said even when I disagreed with them they were probably right. They laughed and said I probably put the mozz on them. It's a tough job, they get it right most of the time, but that free kick late in the 3rd, what were they thinking? We'd be stuffed without them. Thanks umpires.
  13. You have put a lot of effort into this. I think you have succeeded.
  14. All very well, but it's imperative the you first utilise reverse omnick stromulators. The triple overhead cam versions with rudder control interlockers work best. Others may use a tap.
  15. Watching this at a sports bar in Hoi An Vietnam. Tiger on tap. Awesome 👌
  16. So how do you justify your negative responses? I for one will never tire of supporters respecting a true champion.
  17. I have a record I think, my sons and I caught the first Jetstar fight to Vietnam in two years. We are riding motorcycles from HCMC to Hanoi (about 2000km) On the front of my bike is a Melbourne Member 2022 sticker. I am prepared to bet that's a first. Go Deees.
  18. Nothing at Greta other than a footy ground and a church. Apparently one of only seven footy grounds in Australia with no town attached.
  19. AJ, I have been told that you can be contagious 2 days before a positive test. We have had covid in our house in the last week and have had several discussions with medicos. I am not sure that anyone is sure. Current feeling is contagious upto 2 days before and 2 days after.
  20. Over his lifetime he will probably earn more off field than on.
  21. CYB he will be wealthy wherever he plays. Over his career he could earn $6 to $12 million. For me there is no difference, so I would chase flags. And before you say I'm crazy consider how long and well you could live on $6 million well invested.
  22. Ernie, in this day and age one would think that we could select the audio. For me that means no commentators just crowd noise. For others turn off the umpires. Whilst venting, what is with flashing the lights? It adds nothing and makes me dream of the good old days. The footy is the show, the rest is fugazi.
