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

OUR SEASON
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.

Another great game. Consistently under-rated.

We desperately need a gun key forward
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'!

Charles Spargo - A Grade Small Defender (2021 Edition)
His tackling is actually pretty good. He's strong, and getting stronger. Better long term bet than Alex N-B. Licks more goals, too.

Welcome to Demonland: Taj Woewodin
Remarkable. Coleman, Nicholls, Kennedy. One could go on and on and on.

Charles Spargo - A Grade Small Defender (2021 Edition)
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.

Trade Targets
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.)

Caroline Wilson on MFC rumblings
Agree with you on this one. Made many good deals.

TMac on the Trade Table?
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.

TMac on the Trade Table?
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.

You expect some insanity on football fan sites but the criticism of Pickett takes the cake.

Sometimes you read posts that take your breath away. This one of them. A club killer.

Jack Viney Restricted Free Agent
Exactly. He's had a good season. Not a good game on Saturday - though he lifted significantly in the final quarter, when the game was to be one. And there's the intangible - him leaving would damage the club.

[censored] on both counts. He may be many things. But he is not 'pea-hearted' nor is he lazy. You'd impress me more if you had the guts and the gumption to say it to his face. But you don't.- The Oscar McDonald Appreciation Thread
