Agreed, i dont expect a big lanky ruck to kick 'em all the time, but 2.14 is woeful. Previously when he took a mark in the F50 you'd be like this could be anything, but this season you could say it'd be a point with confidence.

McVee and Gawn escaped with no sanction from the Match Review Panel

Was 62-57 when May got penalised for being too strong. Real momentum killer. That being said as per usual our kicking into f50 and kicking iffy as usual. That Petracca to Melksham one in particular; too many floated kicks in; just invites pressure 3 goals after the siren, real broken tv territory

Out of Petty and Disco i'd prefer Disco forward BUT i dont want to see Disco playing anywhere but the backline - So i voted Petty.

It is a tough one - Tmac squeezed out of the backline. You'd imagine the selection committee wouldnt want to move Turner/May/Lever - so i'd still rather he be in the team as a forward than not at all. Has somethings to improve on no doubt. His future should be as a Backman - but this might not be until season 2027.

we do need a gun forward though

Comments from other club supporters saying we were played and overpaid, only thing for certain is he signed. Its a beautiful day, now to win this weekend.

There has to be a $/Length to get the deal done, if this is it so be it. He makes things happens Curious where the load will be spread on the contract, hopefully heaviest when his legs are at his quickest.

Think the price is worth paying just to shut up that flagmantle facebook page.

Got a text during the game yesterday from a pal who supports Hawthorn "Any danger of Melbourne kicking it properly into the forward line" Must not have watched us much since 2022.

Gives them something to talk about (read: Milk) Tuesday-Wednesday before the round begins on Thursday.

Bit of a mid-season groundhog day post the last few years unfortunately.

Frustrating result. The May/Gawn incident will be forgotten by them by the morning. There are posts on here that’s there’s too much smiling after losses. Well this is the opposite isn’t it. A stern word said in the moment will not last long between professional players

A nice away trip

Perhaps the club itself was the hypothetical?

Surprised he wasn't ruled out for the season after this hit piece

Agreed, Hate what he did, hate what he took from us/Gus. But not giving that filth any more of my attention.

Super Sub

McKay and Walsh talk, Blues trying to clear space to keep TDK? Or just fix their list

These are prob 2 of my fav songs released this year

Not sure how long these 2 will have signed on for. 7. Gold Coast - Oscar Adams198cm, 23/7/03, Glenelg 14. Gold Coast - Caleb Lewis198cm, 29/9/03, Casey BUT Thats 9 players at GC above 198cms on their list this year, we currently have 4- Max, TC, Fullarton and Verral. CC: Kalani White.

It's a funny one when you look at it, on one hand he helped create several goals, but on the other hand - 6 disposals at 50% efficiency, his one kick ineffective, 1 hit out etc. Either way he is living his dream and the spot is his until JvR gets his groove back.

The referee simply blew too early meaning it couldn't go to VAR, it was tough on them. BUT If hawkeye hadn't have guffed up Aston Villa would have been related in 2019/20. If they were relegated that year they woulda sold Grealish for less money, wouldn't have been in a position to sign Watkins, Martinez, Cash etc. That error was the building block on creating this villa team, so there is a little bit poetic justice/irony here.

I still enjoy it and am going this weekend - but definitely has some internal struggles. Some promising signs of life with inclusion of Auckland this year, probably one of the few expansion clubs they didnt make a mistake with. Definitely loses any media presence during the Cricket/Tennis and then AFL season though. An all Melbourne Grand Final on Saturday night, on track to sell out AAMI but will get very little press in the build up
