Concussion makes my skin crawl, too. I don't understand why more players don't use Gus-type head protectors. I suspect the AFL will make it compulsory when the next concussion frenzy occurs in the media.

Sorry. I misunderstood.

Hello to Demonland's Gleesome Threesome (except when MFCSS raises its ugly head). Thanks again for your splendid efforts to make sense of the MFC and its travails. This might be a bit naive, but we weren't playing man on man in the first quarter. Were we zoning or is there no such thing in these days of helter-skelter football? We really did look like witches' hats at times. Freo seemed always to have a receiver waiting on the outside.

And who would you put in there? Petracca? Oliver? Oh, wait...

Yes. Strange, that.

Don't start with that mindless rubbish. How were you performing in the second week of your current job?

2nd year blues is a thing and XL and Langford are 2nd year players.

I think that in Perth and Adelaide they use Perth and Adelaide umpires. (Remember game 11 in 2022?) Does anyone know different?

Moved on? To the forward line? They are doing OK down back, thanks.

Can someone please squash Voss?

Kozzie goal - even though the Perth umpire didn't pay around the neck!

We're not playing man on man. Are we zoning?

Oh, you're so smart!

Call me naive, but I don't get why we should pay a portion of a departing player's salary at the player's new club. Yes, I know we benefitted when we took Grundy, but if the new team is not willing to pay the whole contracted amount then they should STFU and the player should remain with us, unhappy or not. Casey could could use some drive out of the centre.

If there were 23 capable youngsters, they would be playing. We have brought in new players in the backline, but none has TMac's 85pc disposal efficiency. We have brought in new players in the forward line, but none has kicked 33 goals in a season or can lead as effectively as Melky.
