How far away is Matt Jefferson?
Throw in the best medium/ tall fwd in Fritta and an improved Kozzie/ Chandler combo with Trac there more often and it's going to be an interesting season.

A solid cast miniature statue/ bottle opener demons player for Father's Day is not too shabby. Beats the old soap on a rope and Brut 33.

CASEY: EF vs Footscray
Don't think we can afford to play Tmac in this. Not with our fwd luck or lack of thereof this year.

TICKETING: 2023 Finals Week 01
It annoys me that neutral supporters go to finals. Especially when they take seats from die hard fans in the Granny. Just venting. I reckon there's a few of them too. Media hangers-on and past players from other clubs, people with connections, etcetera.

The Melbourne Mindset: Christian Petracca
Has a couple of months off then comes back in against Swans to kick five. Not too shabby. He may well be the x factor in this year's finals.

Really struggling with Afl withdrawal. A bit of a Twilight zone sensation. Must hold on. Thanks for letting me prattle.

The Melbourne Mindset: Christian Petracca
Can't help but feel we would be minor premiers if he wasn't injured this year.

Josh Schache Re-Signs for 1 Year
I'm not saying Schache can't but for a key fwd it would be better if he had more bulk.

Josh Schache Re-Signs for 1 Year
His body isn't really built for contact . He's not exactly the Hulk .

On form it seems strange but with Grundy's future tenure in doubt it probably makes sense.

Finals Superstar
Would it be nice to have Tmac be the one. I have a suspicion it will be Fritta. Kozzie is certainly a wildcard. Oliver who has missed almost half a season should never be underestimated. I might as well mention the entire team. Could easily be a dozen of our players.

Was Weitering lucky?
3000 dollars isn't much in the scheme of things. I get that suspension in the finals is a double whammy but eye gouging is a serious thing. Hard to determine if intentional but nonetheless he was found guilty. Greene copped a week for the same thing a while ago.

Jake Melksham Injury
Our forward line has been dead set cursed all bloody year. From starting the year without Fritta, to losing Bbb, Tmac, Petty and now Milk is a shocking run of luck. If any other club had this bad luck we would never hear the end of it. That we are playing in a QF is a testament to the teams resilience, grit, guts and determination and any other superlatives you may wish to throw in yourself. I'm sure the club will seek to add another big fwd for next year. In the meantime if Tmac who has shown good form at Casey the last two weeks, can play well, then we will win a flag. Without Milk I do not believe we would have made fourth. But an inform Tmac is certainly a very good replacement.

PREGAME: QF vs Collingwood
And then there were eight. I really think we can roll the pies. Tmac will come in for Milk. We have struggled with an unsettled and injured fwd line all year. Won't make much of a difference. First and foremost we are a defensive unit. Tmac in will also free up Jvr. We have played them once this year in a finals type environment and we beat them. Moore will be underdone and Daicos will be out. My main concern will be slippery conditions in a night game. Win this and I reckon we will go all the way. We go in with better form.

FIXTURE: 2023 Finals
Yep the Thursday night. We usually get a good number to the Anzac game. That's a Thursday isn't it? I don't get to many as I live interstate. Not opposed to the idea but given cfc were minor premiers they should bet the premier time slot, which is Friday.
