I blame their mothers

Only have to see how the Dogs bottom 6 wilted last year, turn overs in the back half and Fritsch burying Easton Wooden Casket with 6 goals - Massively exposed when it counted. And back in 2020, those back half turnovers by Geelong in the 2nd half as they tried to play the safe possession game up 21 points lol.

Option C. Goodwin, Pert & Gawn lead an expedition to penetrate the Jackson Compound deep in Freo territory by stealth and convert Grandma Dogga into a Demon. Convincing her in the process, to use the threat of changing her will, to garner the Mother's support in allowing Jackson to stay at the Dees for another 2, possibly 10 years.

Would love to see Freo knock them off for the 3rd time in a final in Victoria

Another year like this one for Tomlinson next year as a 30 year old with his contact ending, and you'd just about rookie Omac as depth on half the money instead.

Sheez Louise!

I reckon the Saints with their pre-game laying down meditation in the centre bounce might be taking it too far though. They might be calming their minds, but it seems like something that would relax your body and make you drowsy. No wonder they come out lethargic. But what would I know.

Really hope we're not in the running for Karl Amon Buchanon if its anywhere near the 700k x 5 that Hawthorn are offering.

Jokes aside, I think Yze to Port might be the best option at some point next year. Although I can see Koch backing Hinkley for another half decade with a 5th-8th ladder position finals berth next year. No guts No glory

It's definitely the TMACLAND podcast this week Do we don't we!

It would've been an insane two groupings after hopefully a QF v Sydney win - You would've had the media anointed premiership contenders all in one group, then all of the clubs that were fancied early on in the season, that the media have all jumped off. Anyway, not to be: silver lining is a better all round finals series and probably a tougher draw to prime any team good enough to make a GF.

Why would that be preferable to a Loser of Geelong v Fremantle and winner of 5v8 Brisbane v Carlton playing us in a prelim?

Was hoping Freo would get Geelong, then Collingwood, Richmond and Sydney were all in the same grouping, after we win the QF Then we would've had most likely: Fremantle, Brisbane or Carlton in a prelim lol

I'm too positive and optimistic this morning knowing we're in the top 4 to come up with some mfcss nightmare that Sydney are up by 30 points at 3/4 and they hit 50 because Max King kicks 0.4 in the last quarter. Oh wait...

Wow, dissecting an off-hand remark, like it's a Callum ah Chee concussion case. "Smith seems to be becoming some kind of combo of Hawkins, Farmer and Jesaulenko with every post..." "You were pumping up Weideman like he was Wayne Carey all year" They're the same joke.

You're not picking up on the comparative hypocrisy here. Nobody called Smith a great player, but you made the wisecrack that they were behaving like he was a combo of all 3 great players. Well how about I make the same joke about the way you wanted Weid in the team over Brown... I'm not suggesting you said he was a great player... it's a wise-crack born from the same hyperbolic mockery you made on others.

You were debating people a few months ago about bringing in Weideman and dropping Brown, but here you are mocking people for suggesting Smith.

You were pumping up Weideman like he was Wayne Carey all year

I hate-watch FC - it's a guilty pleasure of mine to pop it on while doing the dishes n cleaning up. Time flies when you're listening to them discuss footy news and board issues like it's life n death.

The liquor cabinet and the undie drawer? September is going to be a mess

If we really want him, we'd be competing with a Geelong that would probably do it for pick 15-17, so you have to take that into account if we really want him. I'd only do a 1st round pick if it came with something coming back our way - Could we get Mihocek too? Or A mid 20's pick?

Jake Lever Forward?

Knowing your MFCSS, the most likely scenario is Tom 'school bully' Lynch and Dustbin Chopsticks Martin kicking 5 goals together in the last quarter of a 6v7 elimination final for the runaway tiger victory and humiliating walk back to Richmond station lol.
