I can’t recall who it was now, maybe King, but he once stated that they should just rid of the “fairest” part of the Brownlow. He stated that if you get suspended for 2,3 or 4 matches etc and can still win the Brownlow, good on you, you have clearly been the best player. Stated that the Brownlow is already compromised anyway, as it’s basically just a midfielder medal.

As my MCFSS starts to kick in for tonights big match. A few stats from Hoyney on the Sportsday podcast on Tuesday. 1. Melbourne are ranked No.1 at taking the most difficult shots at goal after 5 rounds, we are just kicking accurately, 10% above expected scores. Exactly like last years first 5 rounds. 2. Melbourne are the 6th easiest team to move the ball against. 3. Brisbane are the the No.1 at moving the ball. Might be bit of a slingshot game tonight, lots of ball movement. Hopefully we keep our accuracy up whilst keeping them under 70pts.

They said it would be on 7Plus

ANB is a great team first, roll player. He had a great year in 2021 when we won the flag, I believe it was mainly due to the fact that other players bought in on the non selfish, team first mentality. We lost that team first mentality a bit after the GF. I can’t recall the player, Trac or Lever maybe?, that stated in a post game interview this year that we are focusing on getting back to that team first mentality. ANB starts to shine when the whole team plays selfless footy, in my opinion.

Just got out of a show at Hamer Hall, there's a few Pies supporters on this Sandy train and quite a few were at Richmond Station. 😁

Same old cr4p. Hodgey stated just before we kicked our 2nd goal on 1/2 time, we had kicked 1.8 from 29 entries. We never put teams away early when we have the chance. Edit: We needed to take advantage before the humidity kicked in.

HOW. How do you let a player take an uncontested mark 15 out?

Gawn seems to be playing like a petulant child.

Great work Viney.

We moved to Melbourne at the end of 1984, a family friend who was a mad Richmond supporter took my dad and me to my first game in 1986, Tigers vs Dees. As a young fella does, I picked the Dees because I liked their colours and nickname more. We lost by 9pts that game, but I don’t change teams. It’s been a frustrating run, but that feeling of when we won the flag was pretty special after years of pain. 🏆❤️💙

And get the boy an Oakley sponsorship. He’ll never want to go back home. 😬

Tholstrup or Leake maybe

I assume the article states that we flew over and had a chat to Curtin?

Rookie central profile has him at 186cm, 86kgs and above average for endurance. That sounds pretty good for a draftee?

The comparison is in the way he moves, you don’t have to be the exact same height to be compared to someone and 3cm isn’t a big difference. I would understand your point if Spargo was compared to Fyfe. 😉

Wonder if we’re going to give them Sydney’s future 2nd round pick instead of ours? I would love it if we stick to our guns and they accept our first offer, which I think was reasonable, but I trust our team will do what they think is best.

I’m on the GWS and Lions bandwagon next week, then GWS for the GF for Jesse and Toby.

Good call by the umpire, now, if they could only explain why Gawn doesn’t get an extra 10 frees per game. 😓

Soft free to Port on the wing. Here come the umpires.

I think it was todays episode (Monday 4th) of Access all areas? Barrett got the “doom and gloom, what if?” question for the Dees/Pies. If I recall, he stated something along the lines that if the Dees lose, questions might start to be asked if we were lucky to win the flag in 2021, did we just hit form in a Covid year in the bubble? Taking into account our poor finals in 2022. For the Pies, along the lines of, They can’t lose, with how they dominated the year. To be honest, I sort of agree. The pressure is on the Pies, the Media and their supporters have pumped them up all year. If they go out in straight sets, Vic Park will be burned down. 😂 As for the Dees, if we don’t win the flag this year, I would 100% expect people, including supporters, to question if we got lucky in 2021 like the Bulldogs in 2016? With the Cats, Hawks and Tigers all getting on a roll and winning multiple flags, people forget how hard it is to win a GF. I’m ecstatic that we won one in my lifetime, but I would be a little disappointed if we don’t get at least 1 more within the next 2-3 years.

If anyone has seen Draft Day, 2014 NFL movie, Harley might be Bo Callahan. 😬

Parish is going to need security to escort him to his car, from the Bombers supporters. Collingwood supporters may even protect Parish. 😂

Viney should not be kicking the ball into our F50. 😓

Good pass ANB. Better 50 by the dumb Hawks player 😁

Thank you, Gus.
