Non-MFC: Finals Week 03
I've been avoiding footy since Friday who gives a rats, just get us a Full Forward.

Yze gets the Tigers Coaching Job
All the best Adem for your Senior gig with the Tigs. Appreciate all the great work you accomplished at the Dees as a Senior Premiership Assistant. ❤️

Jimmy Munro retires from VFL
Good luck to those poor bastards.😂

Do the Demons need to do a new football department review?
Yze looks to be gone aswell so two new assistances are required.

Farewell Brodie Grundy
In hindsight we should have went after a Forward, if we had tapped up a Larkey during last year we could have been lining up for a Prelim tommorow night against BWS. Let's wait and see what we get from Sydney then we will see if it was a waste. Could end up with a better pick than we out laid.

Farewell Brodie Grundy
It wasnt meant to explain the sub. They obviously don't trust Shaq hence the reason he wasn't used or they thought the game was in our control which it was and the decided against it. Goody doesn't rate the sub going on the last 2 years.

Farewell Brodie Grundy
I reckon the club were fugged off (Grundy) was meeting other clubs (Port and Sidney) during the season, fair enough your manager but not yourself (Grundy) Not all in for the duration of the season.

Is our time at the top done?
I haven't looked through the comments but I'd have to say if we don't nail these draft picks we have in our possesion it could be all over very quickly. 5, 13, 26, 32 along with Sydney's potential picks 11 and 22 for our picks 13, 26 and Grundy I think its a win-win for both clubs. We will never be in this position again for a very, very long time, I'm hoping its a 3-5 years period we are seriously challenging, but we need to fix our problems areas which have been stated. Am i being over ambitions with the Grundy trade? He still has 4 years to run on his contract so we dont need to trade but he wants out, Sydney want and need a ruckman. If this eventuates we could be rolling in draft currency with picks 5,11,22,30,32 to conjure up further deals. JT and his merry men would be licking their lips at the thought of this prospect.

Trade Rumours 2023
It's good enough, but my key concern is Petty's body as a forward can it hold up? We need a Key Forward now, Oscar Allen is just the ideal candidate 24 y.o just entering his prime for a 5 year premiership onslaught. Surely he came to the 2021 Grand Final and thought I'd love to play in a team like this. Send Gawn, Goodwin, Chocco, Richardson and Perty over to WA to reiterate he is the missing piece. Sell him the dream of 90k plus crowds during finals, Marquee games v Filth and Tiges, marking bombs into our forward line from our "elite" midfield and creating a once in a lifetime dynamic forward line trio of JVR, Petty and Allen. (The JPA) Test the waters Dees. We have the draft pick arsenal.

Hot Future Forwards
Disappointed you'd say that @jnrmac Darling didn't exactly cover himself in glory when his club were on it's knees did he? Tmac whilst he is past his best is a better option.

Stuff drafting a kid, poach a key forward.
If true why not on Jacob? Levi is worth a crack on low chips. Himmelberg for the Crows is a lost cause. Gollant i don't know much about but he's done sweet F all for the Crows SANFL side.

How old is Levi? 32? Body is still sound?

Tmac a better option than Darling plus he is a pea heart who refused to have a jab during covid period.

What's needed in 2024
Didn't Larkey sign during this year? We just had the wrong plan unfortunately. Petty was training with the Forwards during pre season if my memory serves me correctly. So i think the brains trust didn't think it was a requirement, but looking back in hindsight it was exactly what we needed. The Gawndy combo was a bust but we're just lucky we might get a high pick than the one we outlayed initially in pick 27.

Hot Future Forwards
He is the one you would want, It would take 2x first rounders to prize him away, plus he is a WA boy. He wouldn't want to leave Mummy and Daddy.

Hot Future Forwards
Smith kicked 3 goals straight and had one taken away from him from Kozzie's stupidity. What do you mean he doesn't have the smarts? He's locked into our 22 if he continues this form and applies tackling pressure.

How do players lose the skill of kicking straight?
I should have made it clearer that i was referring to a Sports psychologist. A psychologist for personal issues would be a given in today's climate and society.

How do players lose the skill of kicking straight?
In a nutshell they are crapping their dacks. What happened during this finals series was all above the head in the important moments. Seems like not alot of work went into this space on top of a drop off in fundamental skill based technique. Does the club have a psychologist the players can approach during the season or have club tutorials every month to cover different aspects of a season that might pop up? The winner of the Premiership every year tend to kick easy goals in predictable areas of the ground and everybody gets a lick of the Ice Cream that was not us at all. I would be shocked and disappointed if this has been neglected and brushed off as a non issue. This is a real problem now, 4 losing finals on our own patch, friggen unbelievable. Maxy take responsibility and get the players buying into this space.

The Neal-Bullen non goal
I hope they cop a fisting like the one we gave Geelong in the Prelim in 21.

Farewell Brodie Grundy
Personally i hope the Grundy money goes into a key forward but there is no much out there. It might not even happen next year either due to cap space. Both BBB and Tmac have one year remaining on their deals, so i would estimate its nearly 1 million of Salary cap space that should be devoted to a key Forward in 2025. Any Brody Mihoeck's floating around at VFL, SANFL or Bush league level?

Sliding doors - 2023
I felt sick after watch that game live.

The Petty injury was the moment. Surely we can't be going down to that hell hole again in Tassie?

Picket v Spargo - The Learnings
Not playing spargo last week against the Filth was a massive mistake. Our Sub selections for both finals were diabolical.
