Careful! Your comment could appear in the 2025 VCE English paper as part of a multiple choice on clear thinking!

Is this the same guy? "THE AFL'S decision to delay a rule change until 2025 seems likely to scupper any monster trade this year involving disgruntled Melbourne star, Christian Petracca. That's the opinion of AFL.com.au's trade expert Cal Twomey, who says clubs are unlikely to be able to offer enough high-end draft picks to lure the four-time All-Australian out of the Demons this off-season." "It could be a good result for all parties to see him go to another club." - @CalTwomey on Christian Petracca Watch @gettable_afl now: ...

Post after post after post of outrage on the back of a CalTwomey article... Oh please!

I'd argue that 75% want those who pull percentages from where the sun don't shine to support an indefensible bias to get over it ASAP.

I’m Victorian… I haven’t felt disenfranchised watching State of Origin. There are the Storm players to watch, for a start. I think the same will apply to WA supporters in the near future. I don’t care if the NRL premier comp struggles, I’m an AFL supporter. I’m remembering the great interstate clashes of the past that allowed we MFC supporters to watch Robbie weave his magic for the big V when we were a basket case in our own comp. There will soon be 10 AFL teams who are not going to make the finals in any one year. State of Origin gives those supporters the opportunity to see their stars perform at the highest level.

Two conferences... Vic, SA, WA in one, Qld, NSW, Tas in the other. Three games in each conference, leading teams play off.

AFL leadership is so lacking! Not just the current admin! They are so slow to work out that mid-season, State of Origin is an amazing comp that unites every code supporter in the state, not just a single team’s supporters!

Does he think he is better than he is or does he think he is good? If it's the latter, I'm all for it! Self-belief is lacking in our squad!

This list from the AFL site would support your observations, as do I.

Salem is currently 4th on the AFL Marks table! He is 5th on MFC's Disposal list and 3rd for Rebound 50's, only a bee's appendage behind Bowey.

Claptrap! Salem was having his best season for several years up to the half-way mark. "Aversion to contact", different Universe, I'm afraid! you're talking a lot like a click-baiter... hold on a minute!

At least 20 of the 40 were without a bounce! Where is an umpire who has the guts to adjudicate the most basic of rules?

We're developing Campbell! (so we can trade him to Collingwood when Cameron retires!)

See ya!

The stock answer given when a team improves considerably after a disastrous start.

He is the near future and his natural forward instincts and ball control should be celebrated rather than dismissed to the rubbish bin, like so many have done to Melksham over his career!

Did you watch Lever and McDonald play for Casey today?

Barassi had plenty of form blasting teammates... thank God this group doesn't have to put up with such a plick! Oh, wait on...

Sums up a breadth and scope challenged individual...

Everyone seems to be out there. Sharp call seems to be a Furphy, other than he came out with a small group in full kit early on.
