Mark Knight Poster from HS turned up this morning.

My AFL Shop order arrived today... Premiers T & Long Sleeve Premiers Top (from Davenport!) Still waiting on Melbourne Shop Still Waiting on Herald Sun

I'm in! Would love a print, Webber!

Magnificent job, Mighty! Thank you for the dedication! You're a star!

Rest it for a year!

The circle is now complete!

Thanks Ash!

Surely they are referring to the AA captaincy! 'tap on the shoulder' to big Matt... "psst! You do realize Big Max just became the most successful MFC Captain since Ronald Dale don't you!"

Love Nev, I hope he is offered a position at the Club! He has qualities that go far beyond the playing field. Enjoyed Vander's 'take no prisoners' attitude. Injury hampered his progress. Was also a Jay fan. He will surely find a new home. Feel for Bradke... I saw improvement as he filled out. A tall kid who could be picked up. Sad for Nietschke, never got the opportunity. All of these blokes were severely compromised by the demise of the second tier competition. Best wishes to you all, gentlemen. Thank you for your contribution to our Club.

Simples... at the completion of the final series a panel of 'experts' (or even Gary Ayres himself) vote 3,2,1 for their choice of best player in the final series.

Thanks Ash... a labour of love! Can't get enough of Robbie!

It is only now that I have become aware of Wills' downward spiralling latter years, and that he took his own life when still relatively young. He clearly experienced a lot of tragic and controversial incidents in his lifetime. Many of these were self-inflicted. Letting the truth be known is our way forward!

Rosebury #8 and Stevic #9 had the Bulldogs v Port Prelim. Free kick count in that game was 22 Port to 16 Bulldogs; against trend! Mollison #32 had our Prelim.

The Umpires for the Round 22 match v Adelaide were, Chris Donlan #1 Leigh Housson #5 Rob Findlay #23

I'm interested in how MFC players scored in the Brownlow in our 10 Premierships in 25 years (1939 - 1964). 1939 - Jack Mueller eq 10th (* ineligible) 1940 - Ron Baggott eq 10th 1941 - No MFC player in top 10 1948 - Alby Rodda eq 10th 1955 - Denis Cordner eq 4th 1956 - Ron Barassi eq 4th 1957 - John Beckwith 6th 1959 - Bob Johnson eq 7th 1960 - John Beckwith eq 5th 1964 - Hassa Mann eq 8th ... and some wonder why we have a such a deep-rooted disrespect for umpires' judgement!

"The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated" - Mark Twain Melksham could yet play in the Grand Final, if there were to be another significant training injury!

Was that how long in slo-mo repeat, or how long in real time? (which I estimate as somewhere between 4 and 5 seconds)

I love the way Jack plays the game. If the critics take the time to watch the whole sequence in real time they will note that two free kicks to Jack were ignored immediately prior to any elbow/forearm contact. They should also be aware that the action that lead to him being found guilty was brief, greatly magnified by the slow-mo used by the Media.

I think some of the critics here are confused by the slow-mo replay. The rubbing of the elbow on the neck is quite a bit shorter in real time. The whacker who suggests Viney is an easy replacement (by just about anyone else on the list) just doesn't know much about the game!

Did Collins play out the game? is he concussed? Any stitches? Will he play next game? Did Collins contribute to the position Viney was in? Appeal written all over this!

Best way to give Dermie the respect he deserves... switch channels/stations whenever he appears. If enough people do there will be an immediate change of tune!
