Max Gawn
Max must be licking his lips again. (mods - I dont think this deserves it own topic, please put this topic somewhere else if it fits) Three weeks in a row he has opponents who are very junior in skill and experience. Lloyd Meek for Freo Paul Hunter for saints and possible Matt Flynn this week v GWS. Might get some more experience against the Cats but I don't rate Rhys Stanley. Max did well on the weekend, but hoping he starts really hurting teams soon. Tell me how you reckon Max can really hurt these teams.

Manning the Mark Rule Change
What I would love to see this week, if Max King is taking a shot at goal, the man on the mark lines up a tee shot, does a little tiger wood wiggle and drives the imaginary 3 wood at him. If anything you will make the highlights packages for the year!

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs Fremantle
Thought out fitness stood up. We seemed to get stronger as the quarters progressed. Did help that freo were a bit banged up.

Manning the Mark Rule Change
The other side of this rule is, I think, it will help players with huge tanks and speed that can run past and receive a handball/pop up kick. If the player on the mark cant roll off and another man take his place, It may open up space on the wings. Slow and aging mids might get caught on the wrong side of the mark and stranded (or give away 50 if they get to close). Reckon it will help players like Langdon

Serong/Pickett trade
Kid needs another Pre season or two. That bit from hell and back where he was straggling and the fact he doesn't run out games shows me he hasn't the tank yet. but he is coming. Has some things we lack. Burst of speed and a flat hard kick the other nice bit of work was his goal where he started in the back 50 and finished it with a goal line snag.

Trac's Last Goal
The strength in tracs body and legs to snap that with a oppo hanging off his back is phenomenal.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BRAYDON PREUSS
Reckon a team like GWS (Sausages and Sauce are cooked) would and could pay overs for Pruess (and also Cats, Bombers and Crows as article suggested) But also depends on Bradtke development (hard to tell with no magoos games to watch), and what they are willing to give up First round draft pick? (I would probably take that - but unlikely). Or someone with some speed and silky skills - anyone else do a deal. Could use a late pick to get a lump of a lad as security.

Life without Gawn?
Probably first time in weeks that the opponents midfield we not hanging of the backs of our mids. Makes the opponents job easier if you know your going to lose the tap and trying to shark or nullify

Our midfield & scoring contributions
I think they are all too busy setting up to try and trap the ball in than actually getting it through the sticks.

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Port Adelaide
Playing like our ladder position. Reality has hit this season over

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Port Adelaide
That game last year haunts me still. Dominate the first quarter. Miss easy shots. Look like 2018.......then we were cut open. They target gawn and no one helps. Then made to look slow by 18 year old first gamers.

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Port Adelaide
Who and how do we deal with big Charlie? Gawn should dominate again but can we take advantage? Three big forwards can this work? Anyone can help me? Or should I just wait.
