Captain Todd

You guys are right on this. Petty to miss (i love him as a player) JVR is fit to play. Salem, Pickett in the middle to help Tracc and Viney. Gawn is a giant, the more we see of him playing and less in the media is our fortune.

Trust in JL and Tim Lamb, they have an fantastic record in recruiting, who will play at AFL level.

Welcome to MFC Luker, there are many people who say things. Work hard and we'll support you

How good was Langdon? Brayshaw was huge when needed, May and Viney as well. Tough and hard. I like the way they help the opposition up off the deck when needed, then drive them into it when needed, like Zac Jones. We got the better Jones!

Long time reader, love your blog! 1. Brayshaw (going back in defence and marking) 2. May (Punching the ball out of danger) 3. Clarry (Great awareness and follor up) 4. Kozzie (Opening qtr) 5. Harmes (hard, fit and under rated)

TMac had a poor year, injuries. Keep him, he is Melbourne through and through. Love his effort and accuracy and professionality. He clunks marks when needed. Just remember when he was fit in the forward line with Hogan in 2018. Kicking 50 goals in a season is not common any more.

I filled out, alhought that was Chicken Schnitzels and jugs of beer.

I'm not arguing with you, we are doing better. Above 15, can you guarantee a player? If you draft a top 15 player you are choosing a 10 year player. They'll be good for ten years, more than likely they'll top some obscurse tally figure. Its choosing the bottom 6 of your team that wins premierships.

Jason Taylor is doing a great job with who he has recruited. Time will tell. Not sure the 'criteria' of what he stacks up everytime, however I watch footy on a Saturday. I'm not an expert, I moderately like the game, occasionally. However it is obvious he knows more than the rest of us. 1. Oliver 2. Tracc 3. Brayshaw 4. Rivers 5. Jackson 6. Sparrow 7. Pickett (should have twice as many goals) 8. Langdon There are plenty more of his recruits to come through, he is setting us up for another 5 years. They need time to develop and the coaches and dieticians to do that.

Sparrow is a solid player. Give him time. Skinny player don't fill out all the time, if any good they become rangey. A reach and flexible Gumby like physical. Morton didn't fill out.

Love Jayden Hunt. Goodwin needs to play him on the wing or half back where his speed and attacking is an adavantage. "You win with your strengths" D. Neitz Goody has never given him a decent go. The highlights package didn't show the torp in Alice either, right on the siren. He needs the opportunity. His tank will get bigger as he gets older. Early on, it wasn't just him, the whole team needed stability. Keep him. JT can't find a player better than him for the price we'll get for him. Reduce trading and stabilise those we have. And yes, I can't recall who said, he's been over coached. Let him have his head and let him go.

Win it first, Then put it in Black and White. I'll buy the limited edition print!

Best photo ever!

Hopng that an ice bath and some therapy will make Joel S the running man that he is. A disclocation that breaks the skin, and Mr Ed was a real talking horse.

Should've been Joel Smith. Reading too much on The Age

Or lose $160 Million in a week

Yeah they don't want the midfield setup broadcasted. I'm OK with that as I want them to win games with their innovation. Moonshadow, that is hilarious! Saty, didn't see you this morning. I was there early and left when it rained. I'm made of paper. Saw a bit of most of them. Lever running laps, Hannan walked a lap, not much more. Jones looks good. Preuss looked a bit tired from the run on Sunday. Jetta looked sharp. AVB is going to hurt a few this year. I wish Stretch had the size of Maynard, he is super fit, his accuracy was good today and he looks the part of a winger. Good luck chasing him all game. Tom Sparrow is the one to look for. He'll play this year. Just like the Man From Snowy River, the horse is 3 parts thoroughbred and a little undersized. He is young and will bulk up. He did a low jump, great scoop and handball off his feet to the running player. Followed it up by a beautiful long kick into the 50 for a mark. Good decision making as there were options and he hit his target unopposed. McCartney said hello over the fence and said something about the weather, very friendly. There were only 15 non MFC on the sidelines. OMac was running sprints with AVB there for a while. The new No1 May, had a lovely receive and kick into the F50. He'll get there, just needs a little longer for the preseason. Trac was switched on today, he was good. Fast, clean and accurate. Jones took a mark in F50 and Clarry came over and started pushing him around. Jones then slotted it. Saying both are comfortable at this level. Watch for Joel MacDonald in the F50 this year, with his size and speed, he is going to be tough to tag. He'll get the third tall defender and will roast them.

Where can I get a deal like that. Turn up to work for one good day.....................

Saty, love your work. Those 70s were a different time.

ANB will be the transition player with his strong running. He'll set another record for km's per game expect 17km in a game, a few times this year. Midfield and Wing, then he'll run forward into a wide open 50 with his direct opponent a long way behind. Sparrow with his long kicking and solid possesion will be his trademark. We'll see him this year. Toby Bedford is dynamic, expect his fitness to increase and his tackling pressure reminds me ex-rugby junior Matthew "The Wrecker" Whelan. I loved watching him play. Haven't seen much of Marty Hore or Chandler.

Looking at him at training today and on Monday, he'll be fine. Keep chipping away at it.

Saw him many times as an 22yo new Demons member. He deserves it all. He lifted when Lyon was on the field and did some things that are brilliant. Love him, get him on board

Brayshaw, Viney, Oliver and Harmes Lets see them escape those tackles. Keep the pressure up with tackles and poor disposal for them.

Love it DV8, my favorite player for the last 2 years. I rode the bumps and ANB being dropped. He comes back and runs harder and the late Q4 goals are crucial, his fitness and running are rare. Keep on going nibbler.

Love it, add Jones' celebration after his goal from the weekend game.
