  1. Please don't mention the M word in any post. I just get very, VERY angry 😠 P.S. The 2006 quote was a reminder for me not to swear at seeing it's name 😉
  2. Bailey has been FANTASTIC his whole career. His consistency and impact can be taken for granted at times. The position he plays with his physique is unique in AFL. His career stats (minus his 1 year at half back) compare favourably with Charlie Curnow for example. Even las week, his goal assist handball (with his right hand) to Trac was sensational. He doesn't have to kick 6 to have impact. Love the bloke!
  3. History shows that at some stage during the year, Kingy will say why each team can't win the flag. He will eventually be proven right in 94% of cases. Genius!
  4. I think dee-tox was just stating the logic used in letting Sicily off 🤪
  5. At 2hrs, 35 mins and 32 seconds we have a new epic on our hands. Gone with the Win?
  6. .....and with good reason. He has freakish skills that make him so important to our side. Yes, he probably tries too often for MOTY, but he bounces up quicker than anyone else I have seen, so remains a ground ball threat in these contests. He is an amazing talent, still years away from his peak. Happy for him to just do his thing, except suspensions!
  7. I could say maybe he meant Schache, but let's go with Dunkley. 🙄
  8. Isaac Newton explained why that happens, a few years back. 🫠
  9. Windsor has been excellent. So quick of mind and hands. Love him already.
  10. If you are able to watch AFL 360, there was an excellent discussion about Clarrygate tonight. Sensible, balanced, honest and even enlightening. It involved Lewis, Riewoltd & Whately (Robbo was in attendance).
  11. A lot of truth in what you say, but I remain angry at the arrogance of the AFL. Gus certainly had great support from the club medico's, but my understanding is that most was from outside the club and very specialised. Remember that the Maynard assault occurred in September. All indicators were that Gus was right to go. It wasn't until 6 months later the true gravity of his condition was realised. That he had the entire off season to determine his state of health was the only blessing in this saga. The thought of it happening in season and being missed is frightening. Of course, that component is not the fault of the AFL. What frustrates me is the 'we know better' attitude. Remembering the AFL drastically lowered the soft cap and TPP in covid to reduce costs. Players now get a lot more $ than they did pre covid, but the clubs ability to pay support staff (including medical) remains at those lower figures. This wouldn't be the case if they were serious about player welfare. Treat everyone who plays this game with a duty of care and make it 21 days for everyone. As supporters we can live with a player missing an extra week, even if it isn't really necessary. I'd much rather that than seeing another Brayshaw situation.
  12. That's why it's called 'artificial ' intelligence 😤
  13. 101.00 @ TAB If my multi with Dees flag gets up then our sponsors will be very happy. There will be a Jag in the garage and a Grange on the dinner table. 🏅🏆🚘🍷
  14. Not sure if this has been posted anywhere. It's 90% MFC covering several areas including tonight's game. https://www.sen.com.au/news/2024/03/06/lyon-confident-oliver-can-recapture-his-best-footy-in-2024-after-turbulent/
  15. If ever the AFL has shown their hand about what their priority is, this is it. "The health and safety for players is paramount. 21 days will reduce the risk of too early a return to playing. Unless of course they play AFL. There it is money. We can't afford OUR players to be out that long!" Disgusting.
  16. Keep the harbour, throw away the rest.
  17. Since then (less than 48 hrs) Top 4. 25 votes 5th to 8th. 3 votes Missing finals. 0 votes THAT'S MORE LIKE IT!
  18. Nice that Longmire announced their debut in front of a huge Melbourne emblem. So that's where the MFC media people have been. 😉
  19. Interesting that a suspended Kozzy is in the pic. Maybe they plan to play him under a pseudonym?
  20. It's a wonder The Hun didn't go with a headline of "Oliver in hospital again!" I'm with you and most others here WCW. Can we just get behind one of the greatest players this club has seen and ignore the disrespected muck raking media outlets. If we start putting an * against any good deed he does then we sink to their level.
  21. Debutants announced yesterday. Team announced tomorrow, is my understanding.
  22. You think mine wasn't!!?? 🤣
  23. In my view, supporters of other clubs are wasting their time, period! (Season must be starting soon)
  24. Exactly. Probably the greatest Aussie song of all time!
