Five go - Pedersen, Bugg, McKenna & 2 big men in King & Flipper
The footy department are not mucking around! Premiership window is open and they make an additional 5 spots on the list. Wow, 7 spots on the list now.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
I'm not convinced Hogan will leave, but if we got 2 top 10 picks in this year's draft (Neale pick and their own) and held on to them (not that keen on May) I would probably need to change my underwear.

Thanks Cameron Pedersen
Good luck to him with his future endeavors. Was a handy player for us when called upon.

Electrifying Aboriginal forwards
Good indigenous players change the game. We have an exceptional leader in Nev Jetta to help out potential draftees adapt to league footy (and of course Melbourne weather for those from up North) Jeffy could still turn it on, but I would love to see Taylor and co find an indigenous gem that helps us become even more deadly when the ball is in out 50 arch.

2019 best 22 and depth chart
I get the feeling the Dees will be listening to trade offers to try and push closer to a flag. The list is damn close to winning one. We may part iwth a player or two that we will be unhappy about. I think Garlett, Kent, Hunt, Stretch, JKH will be talked about, and there will be more talk about Tyson and Hogan given they have been linked to move rumours already. Out depth will take a hit this year with Bernie and likely Pedo moving on.

My grand final dilemma (carn maggots!)
Be the first Grand final party I miss. Have no interest watching this year, just none Will be in the garage playing with the car. (Needs to be in top shape for our GF parade next year)

My 3 word player analysis V West Coast
Season 2018 - a winnable flag First time in my lifetime I actually thought we could beat the other side playing in the Grand final. That's what cuts deep about this loss, if we had beaten West Coast we could have been premiers. This loss is in the top 5 most hurtful of my life. I'm going to lay off the players, because the hurt is too strong to fairly analyze their performance.

Roosy: Goodbye to the Old Melbourne
Great read. We all lived through those dark days, it is really a blessing that roosy came in and helped set up the blue print for what is the demons today.

GAMEDAY - Preliminary Final vs Eagles
Honestly I feel sick just waiting for the game to start. It's a combination of excitement, nerves and probably that huge burger I ate last night. I just can't wait for the first bounce.

The Other Preliminary Final
Nah, just the one between my legs. Sorry if you can't relate.
-
The Other Preliminary Final
In my experience most Cox tend to shrink in stature when it gets frosty, so that might be a good move.
-
The Other Preliminary Final
Geez, Collingwood have hit their peak at the right time this year. Going to be near impossible to beat. Honestly didn't rate them at the start of the season but their team is terrifying when clicking.

Our supporter stereotype
It's the weirdest stereotype in the league..... Think about it. We are being ripped on for being wealthy, cultured and educated. Jokes on them, these are all compliments as far as I'm concerned.

Perth radio 6PR lighting a fire under the Prelim
Do the Freo Dockers have a forum? Might be an idea to engage the purple army to join the cause and use up some food those tickets to support the dees.

Changes v Eagles - Preliminary Final
They will be without Brad Sheppard who is a very underrated footballer. Sheppard is one of West Coasts top 10 players. He was amongst the best when we played them in round 22, and had played every game this season prior to injury last week. This will force them to make a change, Perhaps Schofield is the likely replacement. This will weaken their speed a tad, Scofield isn't a like for like for Sheppard. I think Dom Tyson wasn't great, but will remain in the side and look to make an impact. No changes.

Would we take $cully back?
If it's one thing we prove for the rest of this decade, it's that him leaving us for GWS was the wrong move. We can't do that if we welcome him back. I want him to watch Is rise and have him wish he was a part of it.

Roaming Brian - Melbourne vs Hawthorn, Semi Final
Oskar Baker was sitting there next to Clarry, with a great opportunity to be interviewed. Bt looked at him, realized he didn't know who it was and then went looking for someone that he recognized. If BT is going to roam during the finals, he needs to know every player on every list.

Meanwhile . . . down at Glenferrie Road . . . .
Yeah, I did notice his presser seemed a tad salty. I get it would be hard for him after a loss, but they all have extensive media training and Clarko could have been better in that moment Deep down I think Clarko thought they would win it, I think he is grappling with the fact that the next generation of good teams don't include Hawthorn!

Who's going to Perth?
Road trip. Who owns a bus? Jump onboard the Dee Bus...... ?

The Melbourne 'GIFS' thread
Sicily dishes plenty of it, nice to see him on the receiving end for once.

Hawthorn- nanananananana heyeeeah good-bye!

Meanwhile . . . down at Glenferrie Road . . . .
Fair amount of booing? I think they are referring to the weeeeeeed chant that goes up across the ground when he gets the footy. They would know this if they bothered to watch our game last week....

The Wizard is on board.
I just hope he is on Kobe's ear telling him to pick the Dee's when the time comes for father son nomination. We need a second coming of the wiz (and not a second purple Jesus). Glad Jeff's heart still beats true for the red and the blue.

Meanwhile . . . down at Glenferrie Road . . . .
Didn't really take much from it. Sounds like they are ready to pack the season in and go hunting for Bambi. And they rip us going to the snow...
