Dangerfield Stages
Didn't Gawn stage for one when he got knocked off the ball and went down like he'd been shot? Both free kicks were there. Win some lose some.

My 3 word player analysis V Geelong
Jeffy: doesnt look interested Seriously, he looks like his mind is halfway out the door. Haven't seen him smile in the last two weeks. Possibly may request a trade end of year?

POSTMATCH DISCUSSION - Round 18
Just saw the delayed result. I fast forwarded the last kick out. Saw Hawkins mark. yup i know whats coming. fast forwarded and saw the mark in 50. fast forwarded and saw the goal celebration. No need to watch that garbage in full. I saw that [censored] coming from a mile away, we all did i'm sure. Petracca burnt a few teammates in the last few minutes by trying to shrug a second tackle after already having some luck in shrugging the first. Facepalm! , And we went in on some hollywood stunts while up by 29 i thought.

Round 18 - Non MFC games
Sydney are 7-1 on the road and 3/5 at home, so you might want to temper expectations of a win just yet. I blame Gill for not scheduling the game at the SCG.

Round 18 - Non MFC games
How the [censored] did we not lose to Richmond by 120 points? Am I doing it right?

Will 12 be enough
You definitely picked Brisbane and Freo last week too?

Hibberd Ruled Out of Cats Clash with Quad
You forgot Dangerfield who is not in an easily boxed category, I thought Hibbo might've been our best option for him going into this game.

We basically need to do the third quarter v Bulldogs again, to all future opponents... so the defence is not needed.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHARLIE SPARGO
I really loved the looping handball he did into space to lead a player into an open goal, I think it was ANB who initially called for a handball which would've put himself under a little pressure. Has that footy IQ to know which is a better option and to not be afraid to override more senior players when he's in a better position to sum up what to do.

Who do we realistically target for a trade?
Does anyone see us in need of a second tall defender alongside Omac to free up Lever as a 3rd tall? Or is it a matter of going with what we had pre-ACL and having Frost & Keilty as depth and Petty developing, next year?

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Ben Brown runs off with Cirque de Soleil perhaps?

There is a role for Bugg
The only problem with Harmes as a tagger is that he might be too friendly a bloke!

King: Oliver can be Dee's Dusty
The last player i had down for a Brownlow was Cam Bruce after witnessing him in his first year. I had him down for 3 Brownlows too. "The next James Hird" - Nailed it!

Andrew Gaff
Some have bounced the idea of trading him for Darcy Moore as the Pies need cap space apparently, and it would also satisfy eddie's nostalgic bones

As the leader of the race for the wooden boot, might i suggest 3 points for the 3rd place playoff? Though i'm hearing both teams will play their b side, so maby its only worth 0.3 points

Run home to Finals - 2018
I think 2/5 will rely percentage or another team/s losing an unexpected game for us to definitively make it on points. Not a good route.

The Soccer thread
Yeah second half was a bit of a let down. As it had a lot of time wasting. Bit of a talking point over on reddit. Time keeping is such a terrible aspect of soccer compared with the professionalism of other sports where we value every second lost by making it up with TIME OFF. Even just having 1 minute increments of stoppage time seems so lazy. Surely if you have somewhere counting every second, then you end up with precise Min and Sec to add ie 8min 45s. And then near end of injury time, add even more on a board for the wasted time in Injury time. " [Lapanje] Next thing they should add to modernise football is to change stoppage time to effective time. Today 6 minutes was added but the ball was in play for maybe 2-3 minutes. Yet the referee blew at almost exactly 96'. Heavily encourages time-wasting. Same story in most games I watch " https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/8xsqkw/lapanje_next_thing_they_should_add_to_modernise/ Having said that, I liked France's game. So professional. Their defence was enormous. Defended the lead so well and gave Belgium nothing. Really felt the divide between an experienced football power and a middleweight team that is trying to emerge, even though the only difference was a corner goal. I wonder if Belgium for the 2022 world cup is a good bet

These games are as close to a flip of the coin as you'll ever get imo, and I'm down by 3 to DZ, it's a terrible strategy to go the opposite to you, but I have to make a move lol. Therefore the final will be France v England (the opposite of what I'll barrack for

Jordan Lewis is absolutely cooked, never pick him again
Wouldn't gifting someone games to get to a magic number be put under the 'reputation' category? Oddly paradoxical comment. For the record I don't think Lewis is being gifted games.

Run home to Finals - 2018
I have us playing the Hawks (6v7) if we can snag one against Geelong (And of course beat WB/GCS/ADEL/GWS) Can't wait to get one back against that mullet haired Stratton [censored].

Surprised we haven't had a "Hunting for Hanneberries" thread created yet I don't want to be the one to start it though as it's not my rumour...
