Thanks DD it is quite sobering that Max has gone from No.2 to 1, Clarry has clawed his way back to No.2 and a battered Tracc has worked his way back to No.3 and Bowsa 4, Kozzie leapt to 7th and turner, Lindsay, Langford, Windsor, Howes and Chandler all wedged into our top 23.

My view is that Ed Langdon is a specialist winger, play maker, taking him off the wing to play a high h/f role is creating a net loss for the team. I would prefer Windsor rotate with Langford wing/hf, not many can emulate Ed Langdon and the Duke is stagnating. Fix it Goody, Chunk, Bassett ASAP.

Thanks DD we looked cooked and these stats bare that out, Tracc, Claz,JV, Rick, Salo, Ed Langdon, Riv, the Duke, Melky and Petty all below par at the same time. It’s obviously contagious, performance management has taken a real dip. I would have liked to be a fly on the wall at the after game meeting after that game. Very unusual for Ed Langdon and Riv has fallen off a cliff.

Is anyone aware of why Marcus decided to leave on the eve of the AFLW season or where he might be headed, seems to have been a bit of movement in the AFL over the last month or so.

Toby Sinnema is looking the goods, can’t have to much pace and skill on the list, hope we can get him WJ.

Those stats for MFC are the harsh reality of 2007-2017, 2019-2020 and so far in 2025. We really do have to fight our way back to relevance, we have had so little of it.

Ha ha ha this didn’t age well did it, everything from AFL has stunk it up. Where are all these people going, it’s like deck chairs on the Titanic???

That is high praise indeed, let’s all hope that Harvey can maintain this level of football for the second half of the year. However, all indications are that Harvey Langford is every bit as good as we all anticipated. 😁👍

Agree we need to continue to strengthen our list but our star players are contracted and still playing good footy, we just have to utilise them better whilst getting games into those player that the FD believe have the talent and desire to make it.

I’m not worried about Media Madness, I am more worried about DLand madness, our three highest ranking players in 2025 are Gawn, Oliver and Tracc and by some margin. True Tracc is 13% down on his 2024 form where he was in dominant form prior to his life threatening injury however, all in all he isn’t far off his previous level and now we want to trade him. He was our highest ranking player Vs Pies, WTF are people thinking????

Andy M-W is looking very agile and strong with 6 months to get full fitness back look forward to seeing him runaround in 2026. Well done Andy.

He’s got my vote GW.😁👍

Call me naiv’e , stubborn, loyal or what you like, Our Great FC is on the verge of securing an Elite Training and Administration centre within a 10km radius of the CBD that will meet our needs for our foreseeable future. The fact that they have identified a more suitable location for our administration centre on the Caulfield site reassures me that this exercise is on track and until our club advises us all that this is no longer the case, I wait in full anticipation of a successful announcement and I shall not revisit this site until this occurs.😁👍

I know Dr. Gonzo my grandson was looking at me strangely when I approached the TV on Sunday and yelled aim for the bloody right hand goal post Max it’s not that hard but no Max knows best. Later everyone was saying get Petty down back and he takes a great mark 35m out and I yelled that’s why he is playing forward, my middle daughter said he hasn’t kicked it yet, bang another point, so grandad what about Petty. lol. I sat down and shut up.!!!

Now Redleg is a source that I do trust.

Do you believe and trust the source???

Unfortunately Adam if it’s not coming from the horses mouth I do not believe the slant of the story line. I don’t trust the media, period.

Do you mean in their kicking shoes beelzebub, that is what is shining through for the whole world to see. After watching that Jachovich and Andy Lovell clip this morning they were kicking them from every angle, both were more solid than our current crew, are we to lean???

Should have been a free to JV in the 1st case shoved face first into the turf both arms pinned. Then 50m, even the commentators disagreed for once. Daylight robbery for a mean spirited act. Well done umpire, atrocious decision layzie.

I think that you are on the money OD, I like the idea of Will Verrall playing fwd/2nd ruck, he had 20 touches and 44 hit outs Saturday night. Think Rooey CHF, Matty Jefferson FF, Fritta HFF, Verrall on the bench, Petty FB, Disco CHB, Rick back to Casey until he finds form and confidence. It won’t happen but who knows??

16 marks i50 to our 10, game set and match, they had 7 of the top 10 players. We won a lot of Kpi’s including territory but their uncontested game opened us up time and again.

That should be Langford.

6 - Max despite his two misses 5 - Fritta worked hard all day 4 - Bowsa just wish he had more of it 3 - Disco 2 - Clayton 1 - Blake Howes Then Kozzie, Tracc and Langdon When things were hot and we were right in the game our misses were huge momentum killers. Georgeades was huge his leading and marking was red hot we had no one that could go with him and Ports delivery to him was exceptional.

I was watching the game, watching the stats and getting pretty happy with the boys efforts, Will Verrall just kept getting better and better, that’s his breakout game. Riley Bonner top effort but then Laurie, Brown, Woey2.0, Matty Jefferson and Kalani White all put in a huge effort in the last. Great game to watch.

Unfortunately he played basketball through his formative years and can’t get it out of his game, has height and pace but not the ability to impose himself on a physical game, sad really he seems like a great person.
