    No coincidence the forward line started to function the moment he returned

    Hope he is back, missed the 1st flag, would be terrible if it happened again when he has been so influential

    I remember then saying similar things about JHF, and look what happened

    If he leaves mfc make a net draft profit and we don't pay anyone extra cash. Media have lost it. Makes interesting story to suggest he will be paid by 3 clubs at once because it would be a first is all

    Our forward line has worked best over longer periods when we have played 3 talls ... that means the 3rd defender picks up our resting rucks and we get goals out of Grundy the same way Jacko did. So Tomlinson stays put, and we bring in Petty as a forward and consider whether we swap Grundy/Schache for Brown this week or next week

    And what if that doesn't work? We could launch a protest at the head office, only problem is we don't really have one.
  7. Comparing year on year doesn't really work. l would like to see if his most recent weeks have been on par with other years which l suspect it isn't. They need to put him in the middle at the start of each quarter for 5 min to provide a spark.

    But the post you refer to also speculates ....🤔
  9. Would love to, like most of us that played the game at some sort of senior level for the love the game - no incident mitigating video review for reports playing diamond Valley footy back in the day
  10. They had a 3 to 4 day break after the blues game, and have a few more of those. Having too long a break wouldn't be in anyone interests. Most weeks l get a 2 day break from work and only 4 weeks leave not a whole summer, l think they will be ok. Unrelated, BBB hasn't been the same since the haircut, can we get him a wig?
  11. Anythng viney does is great but loved this tackle on Maynard after what happened to Langdon last year
  12. Max's podcast might he interesting this week, given he witnessed trac's likely retaliation and will have heard what Cox had to say today
  13. So Petracca may have apologised for remonstrating after the game, it doesn't mean Cox didn't cross the line during the game. I doubt trac would complain just for the sake of it unless something 'next level' happened earlier
  14. Not hard to see who coach 1 is. They got smashed bar the inaccuate goal kicking
  15. l felt the blueprint was laid as well - which is not to be confused, thankfully, with Schwabs red and blue print
  16. When the time is right, mcvee should go thru the middle to see what he can do. Likely next season. Has speed would be suited there and give us another. And what happened to kossie having spells in the middle, he was great early in the year and helps him get into games
  17. He would have had a jab, hope it is nothing too serious when it wears off. He was holding his kid on his left side during the team song which was great for a number of reasons
  18. Wishful about getting up to 4 tix anywhere? Happy to reimburse tix cost. Have my own memberships but was slow to get online and reserve spots
  19. McVee would do well running through the midfield l feel
  20. Barely had any impact but give him and the experiment a little more time
  21. Absolutely, brayshaw instead of ANB in the middle was also an improvement on last week
  22. Might be just me but now that top 40 is out l find it hard to be interested in NGA, l imagine the clubs are similar
  23. l thought the afl said they listened to the fans and there would be no more 7.50pm games, replaced with 7.20pm ones. Crowds are back so they don't care anymore, For young familes it makes a big difference. Very poor
  24. l am predicting Salem is a late out - no inside knowledge just reading the play. Susoect Tmac is ahead of others as he can also go back if we have issues that emerge during the game.
  25. I would love to hear an interview with our Performance Data Scientist Robert Younger ... l am almost certain our kick in strategy, kicks inside 50, and many other parts of our game plan are heavily influenced by his analysis. https://www.figuringfooty.com/2016/06/29/goal-kicking-accuracy-maps-expscore/
