  1. What are his main faults and main mistakes?
  2. If he says "that was clever" again someone should stab him.
  3. The intensity level in this game is 1/3 that of our games.
  4. Will his French girlfriend be on stage with him?
  5. Disagree on Jones' and Viney's delivery into the forward line. Jones often bombs it in long, resulting in turnovers. His value is as a tough ball-getter in the packs, as well as clearances, tackling and occasional goals. Viney is not a great kick. He is a great tackler, breaker of packs, general tough player, good handballer and on field leader.
  6. Ok. So I see you are all gutless keyboard warriors. I'll write the letter myself. Then they can't ignore it. Can any of you tell me if the fool was a Carlton member or whether it was in the MCC? Or are you just stupid??
  7. One, or several of us should write a little letter to the Carlton Football Club complaining about this man making physical contact with a player on the ground with a copy to the AFL CEO and to the MCC if it was in the MCC section. This is the way to get some real action such as him losing his membership or being banned.
  8. Especially for getting found out!
  9. The ball got into the forward fifty quite a bit in the second half but equally quickly rebounded out.
  10. It wasn't just a loss. It was annihilation. They could easily have kicked 10-15 more goals. Their inaccuracy made us look a heap better.
  11. And so begins the great spiral down the ladder to eleventh-thirteenth where we will finish the season. Gawn's knee/hamstrings are not right yet after his surgery for a major tear. He needs a rest. Viney will be out for a few weeks. Bugg punched a player in the face (what for?) and will be out for six. Watts apparently still has hamstring trouble. Hogan has had a terrible year with his father dying, an orchidectomy for cancer after just farewelling his father who died of cancer, time off for bad behavior on the field, the media picking on him about smoking a cigarette. He'll be rusty and will find it difficult to focus on the footy. Salem will be out for four to six weeks or so with a hamstring tear and won't instantly be his usual self on return. Jeff Garlett's hamstring tear may not be too bad. Hopefully he doesn't exacerbate it with his wonderful speedy bursts of running. And Jones, despite his habits of bombing it long without looking and turning it over by foot, is sorely missed for his hard nut burrowing midfield approach. He'll be out for a few more weeks. I predict we'll maybe win one more game for the season. It's been nice to dream.
  12. Some of our top players need to learn to spot up a player in the forward fifty and kick the ball to their advantage rather than just bombing it in long or bombing it vaguely in the direction of the big sticks from too far out. Watch the tapes of the last two or three games and you'll see what I mean. Hawthorn were excellent at this aspect of their game when they were at their peak.
  13. Exactly. The real reason we beat the Gold Coast scum and the filth. MFC are aerobically fitter. We out run teams in the second half.
  14. They have a better set up, more skilled players who can take contested marks and spread well. Our players are aerobically fitter and can run out games better, even in the heat and humidity. All praise to the fitness staff.
  15. The last two games of 2016 showed what a weak minded team MFC is.
  16. I think we'll lose. Gold Coast scum on the rebound from the Shanghai embarrassment. They'll want to show they can do better. MFC on the rebound from an embarrassing loss but don't care.
  17. In the selection news on the MFC website they refer to 'tough-nut Dean Kent'.
