We should've dubbed our draftee: Caleb the Windsurfer and brought inflatable windsails into the crowd and given our game style a catchy name like StrangleBall to match those young wizards and whipper snappers over at Waverley

Footy is mostly disappointing, so Port and Bris to win and be cannon fodder for Cats n Swans. Then Cats to beat Sydney by 5 goals. Boooo

Do we have an inkling of what Richmond, Norf, WCE & Adelaide will draft? And what will remain for us?

How's the contrast with Jeremy Cameron's snap from the pocket and McKays piddle dribble for a throw in

Wait for the Lions to lose tomorrow, and we'll have a triumvirate of footy in charge of the department Look on the bright side, we're spared a boringly repetitive dogs v port semi final where the flaky winner is guaranteed cannon fodder in a prelim. Maybe the Hawks will provide something different and interesting for a few weeks, even if it is irritating that they're becoming successful again. And the Cats will at least provide the MCG with a prelim final. (Im outta ideas here)

Don't care if Hawthorn are a successful club, would rather see something relatively new in the finals than dogs v port again. Dogs are going to put up a no-show in a semi or prelim if they progress

Is Hok ball Frok ball when Sammy takes off?

[censored] Ken Hell

And the acquisition of the two best footballers in the entire league in their prime through Free Agency

Yeah. Seems like we're back in that 07-11 era. Even has a captaincy retirement similarity with Selwood and Tom Harley

Yikes. A Geel v Carlton GF it is EditL Prelim*

Maybe Hinkley and Fagan as assistants?

But did he initiate it, or did he pretend to not see him before that? #AskingTheHardQuestions #SocialAnxiety

Tim Membrey has kicked as many goals/game as Bailey Fritsch. I'm suprised nobody wants him. One of the best pair of hands in the league, great contested mark and forward craft. JVR and MJ could do well to learn from him. With Tomlinson gone, one injury to our KPD stocks and Petty gets thrown back. Then we need a decent marking forward again. Or 9 goal/year Petty might just end up in the VFL for a year before TMAC retires, if Membrey is playing better as a key forward. Also he's apparently a pretty good clubman with good professional standards. Still has a few years left to give. We chased a 34 year old Tom Hawkins, why not a 30 year old TM for 3 years. It's fraught with danger of course, but sometimes these risks pay off.

Richmond supporter Jon Ralph wrote that article on the value of those trades. GCS would be nuts to give pick 6, let alone 6 AND 20 for Rioli and Freo would be nuts to give two firsts for Bolton. Baker is worth a pick in the teens and even many Eagles fans don't want him at a higher cost than that and would prefer to keep rebuilding from the draft! I don't think the Tigers are going to have more than 3 picks in the first round, and their supporters will be desperate to get a draft haul this year imo.

We need to deploy another Chook over to Victoria Park to suss out the deets

I could definitely see DJ Spargs and Disco Turner throwing a weeky Rave at Revolver

Interesting to see 20-30 upvotes on any comment wanting Goodwin sacked over on the melbournefc reddit page. Maybe it's the impatience of a younger demographic, wanting the sugar hit of a new coach thinking its the missing piece. Maybe Having not lived through the pain of the 70s and 80's or even the 2010's... they've got no understanding of how quickly it can be gone for good, or at least until a new generation rises decade/s later. Goody has earnt another year at least to right the ship, some of his assistants perhaps not. But that's not really new news.

I'm calling you Wobbie's World

Is that a tattoo of Chewbacca?

Maybe all of our problems would be solved, if the MFC started an official cooking channel?

He's a Facsmillie of Paddy Cripps?

It's nice to have a Sunday off from the topic.
