We do have our flogs. But on a per capita basis suspect a lot less than most other teams. Think it's cause we were down the bottom for so long, we are now just enjoying the ride. 5 year window to make the most of it.

Tassie needs to be a start up club wearing maybe Green & Yellow with a Tasi Devil as it's motto. A Tasi tiger motto would be good as well, even if to just infuriate Richmond supporters. But a Devil would be one of the most iconic mascots in the league, especially if Looney Toons gave them the rights to use Taz. North may have to move to Canberra. Or fold which would be a shame but this league is dog eat dog and better them then us.

Was looking forward to this game a fortnight ago. A bit has changed since then. Still, we need to remain composed, respect the opposition and continue do what we've been doing the past 17 games. Freo are a half decent team who will get their mojo back at some point. They have Brisbane after us.

I took this snap to stir someone last season. Suppose a few of these were 9 on the trot as opposed to 9-0

I recall a game against the Weagles maybe 10 years ago. Was a Thursday night clash. We were getting flogged, which was expected, but the free kicks at half time was 20-0. We got the first free of the second half which was obvious and the whole of Subiaco booed. Cup cakes.

I think we be on cruise control for a comfy 40-60 point win. No point going flat out at this stage of the year. Try a couple of different tactics where we can. Would prefer to be playing Freo over there for a real test.

Someone gag Robbo.

New jumper looks too busy for mine, but perhaps we can get frees for frontal contact. The proof is on the jumper.

I never thought I would ever say this, about another side, but this Eagles team looks worse than us in our Neeld nadir

Danger game in years gone by. When expected to win we would put in an ordinary performance e.g. when Essendon decimated by the doping saga and fielded a reserves team that beat us. 2020's Dee's way better than that, though. Why are there 2 Friday night games this week anyway?

When do we get to buy this streak video? Saints had one, remember.

Freezing cold night. We were challenged but came though ok. Essendon supporters booing every decision was nauseating. Sooks.

Tough tipping round to be honest. Did get the first one.

What happens after he says shiny a few times? It sounds like Wiggins with the headmaster in a Derek & Clive routine.

Most of that was merchandise in the form of dentures which had teeth already missing. Supply exceeded demand.

So on the real flag, if I were to get close to it can I use the spready fingers thing to make the font bigger so I can see my name on the actual material?

That is true, but I have more faith in Kate to deliver than past incumbents.

As mentioned, 3 existing board members returned in what looked like a landslide on the bar graph displayed. Pert talked for 20 minutes on Financials. All indicators are promising with 50K crowds at home games listed as 'a challenge'. All the other metrics were going strong. We made 2.6 (I think) million operating profit. Big turnaround from last year and a lot of it due to plebs like me spending $100's on merch post premiership. Was not expected to make this sort of profit given the pandemic. Missing out on Queens Birthday cost us about 2 Million. Bentleigh is still an asset till later this year. The money from that sale will be put into a 'futures fund' rather than being spent on operations or jacking up losses into profits. Richo talked for about 10 minutes on footy related matters. No great revelations. According to our Constitution, we cannot use electronic voting as 'mail vote' means mail vote according to lawyers. It's a bit like the second amendment in the States I suppose. Anyway, that will be looked at but probably one of those things where members have to get ~80% or something to change? The last change to this to enforce mail votes would have been post Hawthorn merger given what happened that night and to stop that happening again. This was before voting electronically on the internet was available. Kate spoke of the facilities for the club at Goshes. While the oval is being re-done to be G length and Docklands wide, negotiations are still being done regarding Admin & training facilities but are progressing 'strongly'. Alas, she cannot say more than that as it's a State Government affected project. Also spoken was MFC commitment to first peoples through various initiatives. Forget the name of that project. The new Oval we built near Alice got flooded and might need more work. Chip in a few dollars if you can when approached.

I'm no Healy sympathiser, but Kozzie did just lift the ball up when on the ground. But he should have got the free for too high 3 seconds earlier. Ump squaring off? Healy drives me nuts when commentating as it seems he always looks for negatives. And do you notice how he inhales very loudly before making a comment!

Richmond won 2 of theirs in years of the Pig and the Rat. And to think I never believed in astrological hocus pocus.

Available n Coles, but I don't want to cook them. Just buy and devour........ at the footy.

What is wrong with the concept of fat encased in fat? Wowsers!

Haven't been able to buy a Chico Roll at a Melbourne game since about 1979.
