PREGAME: MS01 vs Adelaide
Stupid Question, but is this gonna be broadcasted? I miss the footy!!!

OPPOSITION WATCH: Rd 1 vs West Coast
Yeah I’m pretty happy with our recruiting off-season. Just wish we would take a few more names on our list quietly up the back paddock...

Two Spots Left in Final Eight
Cats may make it to finals, but as always, they’ll choke under Scott, who will in turn publicly whinge and whine about it, which will in turn make me smile!

2020 Pass Mark
I just hope the manic untargetted i50’s stop. If we improve our game plan and skills alone, we’re likely to become more consistent. I can’t put a number on it yet, but I’d love to see finals again
-
Who takes the FP spot?
We actually miss Dean Kent’s spearing i50 (despite his continuous injuries) he did a great job in that department - agree Nibbler needs to step up
-
Core players / top 4 in the best 22? (merged thread)
To the OP, great post btw, although I think you were unfair on Marty Hore and over confident with OMAC. Everything else looked pretty reasonable

How much will Melbourne improve in 2020??
Suspect Melbourne and Carlton will be the big movers from last years rankings. I don’t expect the Dees to get top 6 but I actually demand it this year. No more ******* about, get on with it.

Danny Frawley Killed in Car Crash
Never thought I’d say this, but Channel7 and their commentators did a wonderful send off to Spud tonight, celebrated with a beer, well done lads. RIP spud, larger than life mate!
- POSTMATCH: Rd 20 vs Richmond

The old straight arm block - The Gawn rule.
We won’t get him, but nevertheless he’s done his job and stymied the momentum and belief we could have had on a team that has been a little up and down this year.

My 3 word player analysis V Bulldogs
Backline - better than expected Mids - business as usual Forwards - when you have a set [censored], take your time lads... (Coaching - you got owned: 13 points up and you panicked, play the game on our terms and we’ll win every week) Looking forward to 2020!!

PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Bulldogs
That is impressive: -D50 speed yep/attack on opponent (frost) -skill/D50 pressure (Jetta) -intercept marking /leadership (lever) -pure class ... (Salem) -force/D50 pressure (hibbo) -spoil/kicks (May) Let’s just hope the backline gels better than our forward line!!!
-
Roos is prepared to take a role at Carlton!
Ok balls, we get your passion, but I certainly don’t understand the hatred for Carlton. They’re nowhere near the Hawthorn/Collingwood/Essendon bretheren as far as I know! Nevertheless, retirement seems boring to me so I don’t blame the great one for keeping the door open after what I could only assume is a rather dull and uninspiring career in AFL media!!!

Lowest Inside 50 Scoring Rate EVER
I thought hunt showed a bit and took the game on, as did trac in parts. We desperately miss Melk, Spargo killed a lot of our rolling entries that could easily have converted into goals - interestingly, the commentators talked about Collingwoods “spaceman” who still couldn’t kick, but at least he ran into space time and time again! The only time we looked dangerous up forward was when our forwards moved laterally into space for a largely uncontested mark. We can fix this, but it’s all too late for this season.

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Collingwood
This weekend there’s been a few upsets, let’s see if we can keep the trend going go dees!

PREGAME: Rd 12 vs Collingwood
Didn’t Cox have a sore ankle? Maybe Spargo is the correct man on him ?
-
Time to go Oscar!
Just saw the score after landing in Sydney, damn I’m gutted.... what happened????
-
Training - Friday 31 May, 2019
By the time I land in Sydney from Vienna, it’ll be all over red rover... surely Emirates could let me broadcast it live?
-
Oskar's debut - What a speech!
It’s my fault, I set him up for that one, apologies..
-
Oskar's debut - What a speech!
If he bases his future game on Isaac Smith, then we’re set for a keeper! what an amazing insight we were provided. He was great last weekend for a rookie, and showed a whole lot of promise! however, the question I have is: how great is it to see some super-mature young lads in our team that are deeply focussed on issues that are not on themselve?! oskar has life perspective, and in many ways, he’s leaps and bounds ahead of many of the lads on our 22 list... good luck bro!!! (Oh and your dad is a champ!!!)

Umpires hate Melbourne
Simple, check his bank balances over the next few years and follow the money trail... completely corrupt
-
PREGAME: Rd 08 vs Gold Coast
Yep agree! And as long as Viney doesn’t just throw it on to the boot without lowering his eyes and finding a target.. we then may have a chance even jones showed a bit of caution last week and steadied up a few times
- Ablett wins appeal. System is broken
-
The Last Time they Met - Round 08
The list isn’t really that different from last time, very interesting! How long till Vanders is back?
-
Steven May - drinking session
At least he isn’t dragging 2 or 3 others with him - as far as we can tell.
