Dont revel too much or they'll beat us in gather round

Yep, used to judge this for MCC Balcony attendance time lol

Wonder what the banner will say?

Kozzy and Chin

Would fit in then!

Eight new players have joined the multimillion-dollar concussion class action led by former Geelong star Max Rooke against the AFL, alleging they have had their lives impacted by serious head knocks. The former players named as plaintiffs in the document are ruckman Jack Fitzpatrick (Hawthorn and Melbourne 2010-2015), midfielder Nick Stevens (Port Adelaide and Carlton 1998-2009), midfielder Gary Frangalas (Richmond 1986-1989), defender Michael Richardson (Collingwood and Essendon 1983-1986), forward Ian Fairley (North Melbourne 1983-1996), Rod MacPherson (Footscray 1982-1986), Dylan Roberton (Fremantle 2010-2012) and Brendan Littler (St Kilda 1986). And of course the thumbnail : Jack Fitzpatrick in his Demons playing days

Belatedly did the MFC/MCC dual membership today. Already counted as a Digital Member but another one for the tally.

he's going to play good games, bad games and nothing games in between. Let's not get too lost in yesterday

The Insurance industry is a shady industry, they'll frustrate you into submission and do their best to avoid a payout. While they support the club, a division of Zurich is simultaneously making life difficult for one of our favourite sons. It’s an awkward impasse. Believe the deal runs end of this year, i think we'd all like to see them gone for season 2027 but we do need a major co-partner to pay the bills

You'd assume there was more cap space to bring in Pig, Melk and May, the latter ones were from shopping in the clearance section.

Any tall defenders worth it here?

Will be curious to see, some players will obviously flourish in a new system, others may not be as suited. Kid is a gem, give him some time. As above happy giving Laurie a clean slate under a new gameplan under King, happy for him to get a another chance in the seniors this season.

great work, glad this wasn't around during the long bomb era

Unfortunate as he spent years trying to shift the "rugby player" tag

Looking at the match report for Casey last week, few things to note It was a special moment for Moniz-Wakefield, who took to the field for his first match after an extended stint on the sidelines following an ACL injury sustained in February 2025. To the delight of all Demons fans, he was able to complete the hit-out unscathed. Bailey Laurie moved well between the midfield and forward line, finishing with three goals and proving to be an important connection piece in attack. Xavier Taylor was influential across half-back and pushed forward late, capping off his performance by kicking the final goal of the match Given AMW probably still rusty perhaps the other 2 would be ahead of him in some capacity.

Makes sense with Melky/McAdam aging out.

Curious who he would have played over.

^ Just reminded me i need to sign up to the MCC/MFC dual gizmo so plz add 1 to the counter as i'll do this tomorrow

was complaining to my pals about it, one said we technically had a bye opening round lol

His organization is required in the post May era. Disco/Petty will need to grow into this role

It's a big change from contested/warfare under Goody, will take a little getting used to as a fan seeing spare opposition players floating about. But on the flip side this is also helping us create.

Announcing on St Pat's day as well

How many people are nominated for mark of the year playing against us? Seems an annoying high amount

Dont bother with the lil MFC/acdc intro, just play the song

That defensive play Petty made late in the game, bravo fella. A bit maligned but hopefully he can have a ripper year.
