Agreed. Good season; av 20 possessions. Strong third in B&F. Gave his all, in difficult personal circumstances. And we have keyboard warriors on this site boasting they'd be happy to 'pack his bags' to leave. Sickening; pathetic; a sad comment.

Its [censored]. Move on.

Think you got the top 6 right. The order of the top 3 could change: ie. while petracca may be the media favourite, either Oliver or May could win.

Fritsch enters the ''pretty good' category had he kicked straight. Should have had 6 yesterday.

Improvements in several areas - notably the strong backline, Petracca's development, and the coming of an excellent winger. (Need another one.) But we were buggered by the almost inexplicable collapse in the form of McDonald and Melksham, our two best forwards in 2018.

AFL journalism is infested with simpletons: we know that. But the players involved were stupid, especially Hunt who instigated it (while the coach was addressing the players). Looked terrible, all round.

Others with good seasons: Oliver, Salem, Gawn, Viney (reasonably), Hibberd (reasonably), Lever (reasonably). Significantly, no forwards, other than Petracca.

Right about Oliver. Petracca's rise has obscured how consistently good he was this year. Will go close to B&F.

Hyperbole.

See someone. Help is available.

Spot on.

Another great game. Consistently under-rated.

Certainly need more forward potency - more so than midfielders (about whom people are obsessed).

Yes, Petty has real promise (after a terrible start). But I suspect its down back.

Christ, the insanity virus has struck this site yet again. Bunch of skittish schoolgirls.

Make that 'kicks'!

His tackling is actually pretty good. He's strong, and getting stronger. Better long term bet than Alex N-B. Licks more goals, too.

Remarkable. Coleman, Nicholls, Kennedy. One could go on and on and on.

Yes. There is scope in Spargo - but in the midfield (not defence) as well as up forward. Strong tackler, and creative.

Kalarni? Taj? Cooper? What happened to Barry, Ray or Gary?

Looks like Trent Rivers' younger brother.

We have the basis of an outstanding defence, and yes, one dasher down there would be the icing on the cake. Might have been Hunt - once, but they've turned him into a mediocre half forward. (Disposal isn't good enough, too.)

Agree with you on this one. Made many good deals.

You might care to read the article on Petracca now up on the MFC web site - and note his acknowledgement of Goodwin. But perhaps you know Christian better than he knows himself.

I don't share your views. I think you're an inveterate whinger with little knowledge of either football and the way football teams operate. The ludicrous criticism of Pickett is an example. His 'stark' lack of composure? He looked pretty composed the other day, when he moved the ball from one end of the ground to the other. Took Goodwin 6 years to get Petracca fit enough? Just stupid and wrong on several counts. Perhaps the silliest comment you've ever made - but there are plenty of contenders.
