This one? I hope so.

Oh, I'm inclined to think MFCSS is very soundly based! 😄
-
It's fascinating how many different opportunities the AFL has to feed our MFCSS.

As many on here would have been, I was at the St Kilda, West Coast and Hawthorn games, which provided a 'nice' sample on the subject of 'losing it ourselves' (even v. WC, with its in-game moments of 'Uh-oh!'). This probably won't sit well with the many on here who'll be continuing to expect, and live on the expectation of, annual deep finals action: I've just realised that 2021 to 2025 has made me one of those, and I've lost a lot of the pleasure of following our team in a game-to-game - even a passage-to-passage and play-to-play - let-the-results-take-care-of-themselves way. So, with all the newnesses of 2026, probably bringing with them initially tempered expectations from us and the footy world generally, I'm going to look forward to a bit of a period of that (hopefully brief!) p.s. Sorry about the 14 hyphens, but what else would you expect from me?!

Perhaps live links embedded in the thread to Jeff's x, instagram, tiktok, facebook, whatever? Should more than satisfy the need 😉

Clearly, yes, from the 3AW interview, in everything but name - e.g. was an equal partner in the Goodwin decision with his acting counterpart.
-
Six to eight coaching candidates will be assessed (implicitly, but not explicitly, by the panel). One or two recommendations will be taken to the board. Before preliminary final weekend.

As a polite Yankee might say to you, RtG, 'Shoot!'
-
You would hope that every player not let go by the Club would have the very human reaction of wanting to stay and make amends for 2025 - indeed, to prove 2025 was not who they are - not scamper off to (uncertain!) sanctuary elsewhere. Do it, boys.
-
Finally a Club announcement/thanks, and from it: "Williams will continue in his role until the conclusion of the Casey Demons’ VFL Finals campaign." Hardly 'AXED'! 🤨
-
From Whitford's player review post-Boxhawks: Ricky Mentha (11 disposals, 4 tackles, 1 goal) "Ricky started the game as good as anyone, probably the best player on the ground in the first 15 minutes. He’s showing these game-breaking moments; we are now looking to grow the brilliant patches into more consistent four-quarter performances."
-
It will be interesting to see if that figure falls(?) in proportion to the membership number fall in 2025. I suspect not, in that the post-2021 membership increase may have been skewed to low/new-commitment 3-game-type memberships.
-
Thanks HW. What the AFL wants, the AFL gets. Such a persistent, frustrating and depressing theme... (Though, btw, is membership income not in annual reports?)
-
-
Just. Like. That. Just. LOVE. That. Always. At least until next time...

How can clubs sell 3-game memberships for $7 and count them as members??!! It's time club memberships were measured, reported and compared, in total dollars, not people (and pets, pot plants, ghosts, etc)
Hmmm... I'd inferred from one of Tayla’s pressers that it was before? And I'd be worried about the light for a post-game drop... As to location, for compliant air operations and suitable safety provision, I'm thinking the drop might be on a controllable marked 'landing pad' on the grassed area Tayla landed at, behind the training facilities, and from a relatively low hover height.
A shame re Charlie: he was pretty big (in one marking contest, almost literally!) against the Boxhawks.
Anyone know what time the golf-balling goes down? (figuratively and literally!😄)
Spargo? Sharp?
...Then not committed enough!
...and better choice of edge to apply?
Nice that we're in the top 4 somewhere...
