We need the MCG for closed training. Back to our spiritual home occasionally for a run would be great for the club.

Gosch's is a public area, so is difficult to close. They don't seem to mind spectators, they have been pleasant to me. In the past when they wanted to do some "secret" plays they would ask us not to go in "that" area. Media and camera crews were there as well. My guess is they will use Casey or Port for closed training. Today's run seemed to be about thanking the staff, as the coffee and food truck was out, and they had a meeting with them at the end of session

In the past they had one open training a week. The rest not advertised. Today at Gosch's, the next is anyone's guess.- TRAINING: Tuesday 23th August 2022
Coffee is on. Rehab has , Moniz-wakefield and Salem. Light duties, Oliver and JJ. TMac is training with main squad. First drill, moving the ball from the backs in defensive 50 into the forwards to kick a goal. Full field was used, opponents with bibs but no tackles. Now into line squads. JJ is now training with the mids. Semi competitive drills, in two squads. Mids clear the ball from stoppage and the backs defend it. Forwards play with the ball on the arc then pass it to a forwad Into sims now. Dogga and JJ both sitting out. Just got my tickets, woh hoo.- 2022 Finals Tickets
All the good cheaper seats will go to a few. Especially in the areas that I choose to sit, which have limited availability. A shame that. Oh well, up in the nose bleed areas. Possibility that the scalpers may have better viewing seats than the official site.- The Luck of the Draw
Would prefer: Round 1: 1 play 8, 2 ply 7, 3 ply 6, 4 ply 5. 2 bottom teams out, top 2 get a week off, based on win and losses and where placed at end of H & A. Round 2: 3 ply 6, 4 ply 5, . The two losers out. Prelim: Winner 3 Ply 6, play team 2 from first round. Winner 4 ply 5, play team 1 from first round. Then the grand as losers are eliminated. Home ground to those higher on ladder at end of H & A. Top 4 really shouldn't play each other until further into final series.- Harrison Petty incident
"People in glass houses." Perhaps Zorko's mental health status was why he steps over the line. If he is struggling with mental health issues, it would be prudent to have the VC take over his captain roles. He can play footy and not have to face scrutiny when doing any public and media duties, or lead his team-mates who must all think he stepped over the line.- The Luck of the Draw
I'd include home ground advantages, Geelong and interstates. They get to train, on their match day ground as well as get the crowds influencing umps. On the other hand, interstates have to travel about every second week and the derby games are tough games. This year Geelong got the draw and home advantage, without much interstate travel. I feel something has to be done about the lopsided draws, but interstate games and home advantages must also be calculated into the mix, if they are after fairer draws. A floating fixture after they have played each other once is a good start, take into account the other advantages and they will be closer.- ROAD TO THE GRAND FINAL
Possibly the same time the MFC is training.- ROAD TO THE GRAND FINAL
Advantages to whoever loses out of Cat and Woods, as they go up against a team with one day less days and coming from the West. (Addit: same amount of recovery days, reacted to LH's error.) Whereas if we or Sydney lose, we or they get a team coming of a day extra, although from the north.- ROAD TO THE GRAND FINAL
Will the MFC also send out the $5 raffle arrangements for Grand final tickets on the chance we get there?- ROAD TO THE GRAND FINAL
Last year was a good exorcism of the 1987 Hawthorn game and the curse. Looking forward to this finals series as I get to attend. Will never take a series or even a finals game for granted. C'mon Goody, his team and our players, get us up for a go at Back to Back. Exciting times for the MFC.- ROAD TO THE GRAND FINAL
I was there as well. Can't remember a thing about it. The shock of being done by Hawks in the prelim on the siren, has blanked everything for me about that year.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022
I understand they are Blues fans. The rockers might be playing the blues.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022
They could still end up having to face Sydney in Sydney.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022
I think you've thrown yourself back in time to when the top 4 teams go into the final series and a bit of MFCSS.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022
Better team than the bulldogs, and we have to listen the Bevo again.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022
There is a good chance Geelong be complaining all summer long.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022

I want the home game, so I can go and watch it.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022
Would just rather play a travelling team.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022
Woods get another close one. Wow, Carlton, would have thought they learnt how to ice the game. They panicked. Free to Mckay and I thought Ginniven blocked Saad from the last marking contest.- NON-MFC: Round 23, 2022
Swans still need to get ahead by about 5 more goals. Stay with them Saints. - TRAINING: Tuesday 23th August 2022
