Thanks DD we knew that Riv was coming but that effort was off the charts, brilliant team game with our youngsters providing the spark around the ground. Having Max, JV, TMac, Salo, Ed, May, Lever and Milkshake providing the hard bodies and leadership it allowed our youngsters to break the game open. Also nice to see our aggression at their players.

Thanks Wheelo some great and interesting stats there, our defence was very good especially with the 2nd half with the ball spending so much time in their forward half.

Another excellent game for Andy Moniz-Wakefield, he looks so much better live than watching on TV where you can’t see just how fast and effective he is. I hope that we keep playing him and I like his suggested nickname “Wheels”.

Bravo Jake Melksham you helped make us a better and tougher team.

6 - Trent Rivers, has taken over the reins 5 - Jacob van Rooyen, best yet 4.4 could have been 5-6. 4 - Caleb “The Duke” Windsor showed his full range of skills today, had strong impact 3 - Tom McDonald provided defensive excellence , I would also love him to go around again in ‘25. 2 - Kozzie what a great game and loved that he finally took that screamer. 1 - Mr. Ed Langdon back to his best, looks like he is enjoying playing footy again, maybe a new contract just around the corner? Then ANB, Jake Melksham (makes us better), Kolt, Chandler, Salo, Judd McVee, Frittata is back, we batted deep today, great team effort, no passengers.

The Kolt was certainly up and about today got us started and I didn’t see him waste a disposal, excellent mark and short kick, loves a bit of rough and tumble.

And two of those are champions and the third best 23.

Thanks WCW and all posters for another interesting and entertaining Captains Run.😁😁

Fingers and toes crossed Praha but feeling quietly confident there are 6-7 of us travelling in tomorrow. It will be a quiet trip home if we lose to the 2nd bottom side again.

If you look at both sides Lions were just to talented around the ground, their older depth players had so much of the ball and they have won all five of their last games very convincingly. Despite our lack of class and depth the boys kept on trying until the end. We really do need to bring in some midfield stock this draft period at Dee’s and Casey!!

He wouldn’t have got it if he was still playing for us. Grrrr.!!

Ok I was wrong. Lol.!!!

Personally I was expecting Jake to play a couple of games at Casey but I am not concerned that he will be playing on the G on Sunday, Goody did say that Jake had 6-7 weeks under match loading which is much more than all other players coming back from injury. As for our team I agree with a number of posters that we are going in a tall short.!!

Looking at Jefferson at the start of the year and seeing him now he has done a lot of growing physically and confidence wise. He is getting very close but do we risk him on such an important occasion, we have to beat the Weagles on Sunday, no ifs, buts or maybes.

Personally I’m hoping that he plays two at Casey to get him cherry ripe for the backend of the year and hopefully finals, Jake is the seasoned head that we need in our forward line, he could be the difference. Welcome back Jake.💕

That is the burning question Mono 6’3” in old terms fwd/back, great hands and team player and Adem Yze’s boy. Let’s hope he has a good run in the second half and earns a spot on the list. I love the romance of father/sons.

Just one amendment Chelly Christian Petracca is not Achilles its Spleen.

Well having Milkshake & Marty Hore available will definitely make Casey that much stronger and hopefully Will Verrall, Jake Bowey and Harrison Petty will be OK, not sure about Christian Salem or Benny Brown.

Clyde Laidlaw what a man, what a winning record another of Norm Smiths Legends follows his skipper and coach into MFC History. RIP Clyde.

There has to be one out there with our name on him??

Great to see Christian being interviewed on the MFC website he is starting the long journey to full recovery and the fact that as previously mentioned he is eyeing his spot on the bench when he is fit enough to rejoin the club fills me with confidence that he will be OK. Thanks Tracca and MFC.💕

Thanks WCW, Ditcha and all posters sounds like a great training / family day at Gosh’s today, very envious.

D Rev was that Jed Adams or Judd McVee.😁😁

We certainly need some extra quality mids spirit of norm smith but we don’t have the same volume of quality picks we had last year we also need another tall back and ruck plus make space for Judd McVee on senior list. I’m thinking that we need to clear 5-7 spots on the list, what do you think and how do we achieve it?

Thanks Wilmoy you beat me to the punch. Lol.!!
