So, my question is.... why have most other clubs accurately predicted the implications of the 666 rule, adjusted their game plan accordingly, taught the players, who in turn have mastered it, and... we have not?

Tom Mc Donald had zero impact in his position last night, so why wouldn’t you move him to the backline to mind What would we have had to lose? zero

Out. Unfathomable skill errors: kicks straight to the opposition, dropping uncontested marks, continuously handballing under pressure (skills aren’t up to it this year) in. Insight and Courage in the coaching box

I agree with your thoughts. Best wishes for whatever is going on for you. You stay strong too

Late to the topic, I know, but this 100% correct

Reading all of this makes me so mad, not good.

Yeah, listened to the age real footy podcast today, where good old Caro equated the mfc tanking to the Essendon supplements scandal. She took great delight on the back of the herald sun regurgitation of the sorry story, to vent her personal prejudice against the mfc, Cameron Schwann, chris Connolly, or all 3, despite actually no actual new evidence being released. gave me a pain in the head

Losing the way we did is no fun, and yes there’s are concerning aspects about our game, however... It’s round 1 i have faith that Goodwin et al, won’t throw the Towel in quite as readily, as so many on here are doing. Chill people. It’s a long, long season.

Makes is slightly more bearable, that we are in that company

Not sure if you’re serious; if you are, check out clinical anxiety on google, it’s no picnic

iselect aren’t renewing, hopefully new sponsor announcement soon

The 17 round draw assumes blindness to advantages; simply, every team plays every other once, and alternates hosting at home ground on a year on year basis Like the old days

We’ve had the Demon flag at half mast since we heard. He and J Watts visited our critically ill son at RCH, had respect and admiration for them both since then. Rest easily Col.

As Garry Lyon apparently said, time for the afl to grow up and do the 17 round draw. Wont happen though, afl not likely to stomach the revenue loss, nor have the courage to do what is right

Nor do I

Hogan IS NOT A FREE AGENT NEXT YEAR sorry to shout, but haven’t we gone through that several thousand times?

Of course, isn’t that the only way?

Don’t mind a teddy bear smothered with butter, yummmm

Why would Sydney do that?

Bit off topic I know, but I’m no fan of Geelong these days, but I think they are entitled to play hardball with kelly. Funny he’s so desperate to go home but is only interested in WCE. Disingenuous.

Geelong viewpoint - Would you trade Tim Kelly and Pick 11 for Pick 7 and Pick 15? Yes Carlton or Adelaide viewpoint - Would you trade Pick 1 for Pick 4 and McGovern? Yes Port Adelaide viewpoint - Would you trade Pick 9 and Pick 10 for Pick 5 and Fremantle’s 2019 2nd rounder? Don't know Melbourne viewpoint - Would you trade Hogan for May and Pick 10? Yes GWS viewpoint - Would you trade Lobb for Pick 11? Don't know GWS or Carlton viewpoint - Would you trade Pick 4 and 2019 1st rounder for Shiel? No Gold Coast viewpoint - Would you accept Pick 9 for May? Hope so

This is what I was told too. Say we’ll done from me too! They will be shattered.

I think that is extremely ambitious

We’re going and we’ll be loud! Goody convinced me! (Costing a small fortune- bought a package) Where’s a good pub for post game celebration (hopefully)? Also to watch the game on Friday night?
