Like clockwork, the week a Melbourne player is in trouble, is the week everyone in the AFL Media decides "Enough's Enough" </myvictimcomplex>

B. Grundy d L. Jackson 79-50 ROUND 1 FANTASY LADDER B GRUNDY 1-0 L JACKSON 0-1 --- I'm not vindictive and immature enough to post this in here every week - that would be irritating for all involved. I will do it in my head every week over on my fantasy page however.- Death Riding Fremantle 2023 - Feathered Cap Edition

Tomlinson was excellent. I hope he's given another week and potentially more if form permitting. Am I crazy in thinking Petty isn't an automatic lock, if he gets beaten next week and May is ready to return v Sydney? I know some,even me, have pencilled him in as a future AA Backman, but that doesn't exactly mean his spot is an absolute lock, if others 'below' are performing. It's easy to forget he's still 23* and isn't immune to a dip in form.- POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
The Kings Bday and Geelong matchup is too far away! The next two weeks will be a fantastic test, but i can't help but feel like we're already in the box ticking grind to get to these key pre-finals matchups to put rival game plans to the test lol It was great to beat up on the Dogs last night from a confidence and tactical reaffirming perspective, but gee I want an entertaining contest for 4 quarters again!- McVee & Laurie vs Baker
We probably should've trialed him at full forward over Weideman, in hindsight- GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs

Lever trying to reach Darcy's hands, Tomlinson trying to keep up with Naughtons acceleration off the mark, Gawndy on Lobb while potentially losing him at the defence ruck contest with anyone from WB potentially in the ruck, English floating Forward to cause mayhem. If we lose, it will be because of confusion! And if we win it might also be because of confusion- PODCAST: Brodie Grundy Interview

Although the odds were completely stacked against us, a rematch would've thrown Geelong a different 'mental' challenge than the one they got against Brisbane. Who knows, we could've cracked their spirits with some kicking accuracy in the 1st half. It's one of those what-ifs that I won't lose sleep over though. Similarly in 2018, what would've happened if we had a crack at the Tigers in that first qualifying Final, given our similar styles and knowing now that they had already spent most of their tickets in the regular season. I'm kind of glad we went out in straight sets if the alternative was being smashed by Geelong by 10 goals though and handing them even the smallest of mental edges against us THIS year. And there's still a little mystery going into this season knowing it's a referendum on the best team of the past 3 seasons and we did not lower our colours in last year's prelim, if both clubs meet in the GF this year.- GAMEDAY: Practice Match vs Richmond
As i can't make it, and find the low camera angle at VFL grounds unwatchable understandably, the DL post match thread will suffice. Unless someone wants to rent a crane and live stream illegally 😂 I'm beginning to think Chris Scott might be onto something with the 18 min quarters and 26 rounds instead of 2 potato quality praccy match Sims.- Music after goals
Well I don't know what the song is called, but I just heard someone say it was hells Bells a long time ago. I prefered it when we ran out to either cheers or the grand old flag. Not a song trying to sound scary and foreboding! I guess I'm getting old now!- Music after goals
There was that one time the MSO Performed a musical accompaniment to the 2010 Draw lol "For one day in September, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra will play an originally composed soundtrack by Tamil Rogeon against vision of the most infamous draw in Toyota AFL Grand Final history. Arts Centre Melbourne will join forces with the AFL and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra to present The Draw: A Symphony – a live orchestrated screening of memorable moments of the 2010 drawn Toyota AFL Grand Final between Collingwood and St Kilda. Most people – football aficionados and dilettantes alike – will remember where they were the year the nail biting AFL Grand Final day draw played out. The Draw will showcase a specifically edited replay of the match, projected in the MCG of the performing arts, Hamer Hall, while the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra perform a commissioned score by Tamil Rogeon (RAAH Project, True Live), highlighting every dramatic leap, bound, touch and goal. Tamil is a composer, violinist, producer and a current Honorary Fellow of Melbourne University’s school of contemporary music. His work for The Draw will focus on athletic feats and failures as well as moments of tension, and even humour, throughout the game. Star players will have motifs and storylines and snippets of broadcast commentary and crowd noise will also be used to dramatise the narrative. It will be a truly unique fusion of gutsy football and dazzling classical music in Arts Centre Melbourne’s stunning Hamer Hall; not just a work for lovers of modern orchestral music but also for football fans and of course, those with an appreciation of both."- Music after goals
Can we do away with that hells Bells pre grand old flag song while we're at it? Doesn't fit the vibe at all and the transition into our song sounds jarring. And in that moment i miss the 90s 😂 Seems more like the entrance music for the Undertaker wrestler Sorry (To Jonesy I guess?)- PRE-GAME: Match SIM vs St. Kilda
