Have we won a centre clearance yet? (Without turning it over at CHF)

We just have so many dumb footballers

Umpiring is disgusting!!!!!

Mmmm in Dangerfield's interview with Whateley a day or two ago on SEN you could literally hear Dangerfield suck up air before he answered every question. And Dangerfield himself said he has no idea how long he'll be out, said he wasn't even letting his kids jump all over him like usual given the pain/discomfort, etc – no chance he was playing this week.

Based on the broadcast and hearing from Luke Hodge (old team mate) - Mitch has played 100 games and been sacked by both teams so he gives the medal to the losing team when they play off.

Feels like a pre-season game

I like this idea

JVR will make it, delivery to him has been horrible and virtually non-existent

Our players are so unaware of opposition at round them it’s baffling

Why THE.FRICK are we losing it in the middle?!!????? Bloooooooody hell Melbourne. Playing the Reserves here, wake up

(Members email from the club)

Sorry Kev! While the invitation from the club to attend training was a very welcome one it was quite ambiguous with very little detail other than what time to be there and that there'd be free coffee and a briefing from the higher-ups. It sounded like it could potentially be a more formal thing with only a few members given the 'invitation' aspect so I didn't even bring my kids (even though they're on school holidays) as I thought they wouldn't be allowed given they aren't 10 year members (literally had my membership card ready if they were going to check!). Maybe silly on my part as it turned out to be a very casual affair and essentially open to anyone who wanted to be there.

Didn't stick around for training but was there for a few words from Kate Roffey and Alan Richardson, left after the squad had been warming up for 20 mins or so. According to Richardson, at this stage it looks like Gawn will be playing this week (was very close last week) but they'll give him a few sessions this week and won't make the call until closer to game day. Richardson sounded less positive about Lever's chances for this week, wasn't a definitive 'no' but basically suggested he's not in Gawn's position of being over the ankle concerns he's got. Sounds like he might need another week. (Keen to hear what training he does). Salem still 4 weeks away at least. Brown was close last week but just been experiencing back soreness. Looked pretty good to me in the warmups (Keen to also hear what training he does). Roffey thanked all members and pushed for all those in attendance to get their Melbourne supporting non-member friends and acquaintances to sign up too, so get on board Demonlanders if you haven't already!

Great interview

Haven’t seen us play this bad for a while. Can only get better - C’mon DEES!!!!!!!

I tried one of the AI image makers but it completely missed the mark! Had to resort to photoshop

Here you go

That wasn’t a free kick to Motlop whatsoever. Even Channel 7 didn’t want to show the replay. Non officiating umpire reacted to the Blues fans. Terrible officiating.

This is a wonderful thread, thank you.

It was Spargo (who took one when he didn’t really even need to). https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp9NBEfPr-e/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

Often a full clean break is much better than a fractured/messy break, heals better and quicker and less complex. Have had the bad one and it’s not great, wish him all the best.

Looks like they're down at Casey this morning based on an MFC Facebook post

Couldn’t believe it when the invitation came and I saw the date - their priorities are all wrong.

Would normally be in attendance but I’ve got a bloody wedding! Will have to sneak off and get updates via kayo and demonland where possible.

Good listen on Spotify ‘CaseFiles’ - listened to that one recently, wow.
