The No T$ No B$ Thread
Sorry, IRW; it did sound like I was mounting an argument. But, as 'Mad As Hell' (aren't we all?!) character Chris Lorax would say, it was 'Just a bit of fun...' Missed the mark, obviously. And anyway, embarrassingly, I think I did get my facts wrong: was it Collingwood and Carlton only we and Essendon beat? Nice to be considered childish, though, approaching the big Seven-O! (see, I can't help myself๐)

The No T$ No B$ Thread
Just us and Essendon, who beat us. Go figure. And yes, we did. But I'm hoping to enjoy 2024 on its merits, not with baggage. And meanwhile we've got this: https://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/1436492/aflw-team-song-melbourne?videoId=1436492&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1695373342001

AFLW: Rd 04 vs Hawthorn
I'd thought that, too, GM; the red yoke should go across the width of the shoulders if it's to match the traditional guernsey. However, see my post now on the Votes thread: another angle, shall we say?

AFLW VOTES: Rd 04 vs Hawthorn
Couldn't think of anywhere else for this. Maybe there's a link in how difficult it is to select 6 vote-worthys from this Super team? Anyways, is it just me or is there something of the DC Comic in the girls' long sleeve strip, rocked by Banno, Goldy and The Sherrif?...

You can 'roll' out the obverse again on Thursday, W ๐ It was good, by the way, that they had a go at a narrow ground yesterday, as preparation for that other 'K' Park on Thursday. Eliza McNamara noted the issue, and how they dealt with it, in her post match. And did you notice who kicked their goal? Little fist pump?๐

13 in a row and counting. And 13 goalless oppo last quarters to go with it, according to @Craig T Hawks very fumbly but they weren't going to get near The Machine anyway. Agree with the various player observations (except Birch: harsh!) L. Pearce back to her injury-free(?) best - great chase and smother in front of the DA leading to a goal.

It does attract wordplays, doesn't it, often of the salty variety. DubDee's of an hour ago, innocently Aussie, is a mistake I once made in refeened company. Never again!- AFLW: Rd 04 vs Hawthorn
Yep. Per her post-selection interview (see OP), in her own words she's been 'in and around the half forward line...trying to create scores for the girls in front'. Looking at her Gaelic footy vision, if she's made the transition from round to oval ball, her delivery skills shouldn't be a problem!- AFLW: Rd 04 vs Hawthorn

Mentors, @Mincho Mania and @DeeZone? I'm imagining something nearer parents: he's arrived at his apparent destiny, has ANDREW D(emetriou/G)ILLON(McLachlan)! And speaking of Dill'n'Gill, the 'Front Bar' lads had them on for a grill last night. Bit of fun.- Non-MFC: Finals Week 03

My OP was just at a specific emotional level, DD; the boys finals are dead to me now (unless Collingwood and Carlton both crash and burn...) I've moved on, very happily, to the girls' very entertaining campaign.- Non-MFC: Finals Week 03
