"Attack wins you games, Defence wins you titles"

Yes and no to this, Liverpool signed 2 key players in Alisson and VVD to cover areas of concern that had let them down, namely GK and CB. These were missing pieces of the puzzle but the club had also invested in other areas on the pitch over the last few years. ie Fowards: Mane, Salah, Firmino and Shaqiri for approximately £130 million combined. Midfield:AOC, Wijnaldum, Keita and Fabinho for approximately £150 million combined. We thought May was the missing piece, but now we have a missing piece up forward.

Sometimes when you're doing a jigsaw you think a piece fits in but in the end it doesn't make the puzzle work. The club adopted a short term view in the hope of winning a flag. It's looking like a miscalculation but time will ultimately tell. Forward 50 entries still need to be addressed - we have players that are capable of scoring goals, just not a superstar. The club has put faith in Wieds development but he needs more game-time. We've won 6 regular season games since the end of 2018, 4 of which by less than a goal. (We've also lost 3 games by less than a goal). We need to improve. Take me back to the glory days of 2018 when we beat Carlton by 109 points.

Strange isn't it, 2018 one game away from the Grand Final - we think we're in the window and sacrifice pick 6 (KING) for May/KK. Fast forward to now and we've won 6/26 games, 4 of which by less than a goal. Looking like a complete rabble most weeks. Where are we as a club? and How do we get out of this mess?

Is the playlist decrease for next year confirmed? Becomes little bit more difficult for fringe players pushing their case this year.

Ta! I'm an MCC member so no rush to get my MFC add on, especially this year so I just paid it recently after paying off some other non-fun bills.

i signed up to my membership late this year, has/will the same discount occur this year? I need new shoes!

This is what Scott Pendlebury had to say "1. Neitz 2.stynes 3 Lyon 4 N. Jones 5 . Gawn 6 Schwarz 7 Yze 8 farmer 9 Bruce 10 white 11 green 12 junior Mcdonald 13 woewodin 14 robbo 15 Oliver 16 tingay 17 T Viney 18 Lovett 19 Febey 20 Nicholson. Prob missed a few but there ya go old mate" Always find player opinions interesting.

Uncertain when the 50% discount coming but the shoes are currently on sale at $120 down from $160.

Tommy Mac ($20) and Jay Lockhart ($20) are already on the cameo website, so is old mate Russell Robertson ($40). This would bypass the club but the club but club have options like reduced merchandise and even raffles for signed stuff etc - better than an auction.

Reckon if there's no season the AFL may as well simulate this game and give us the flag!

I haven't paid the additional MCC/MFC membership yet. I still intend to sign up probably for the $89 add-on when I usually do the $225 one. Meanwhile i'm still arguing with an overseas hotel about a $900 non-refundable hotel booking for a trip that i'm not going on anymore due to the pandemic If the AFL have got a $600 million loan lined up the clubs should support the members when requested. Obviously Eddie doesn't want to open the floodgates to thousands of refund requests so he just got angry at chompers instead.

Some of the ones I use make sense Harrison Petty - Tom. Due to Tom Petty. Others make some sense but are very dumb but the brain does what the brain does Angus Brayshaw - Helmet - Due to the fact he wears a helmet Bayley Fritsch - Fritzl - Due to Josef Fritzl. (Sorry if you're reading this, love your work - other name you get is corn fritter as i also like corn fritters)

Exactly, Melbourne Victory (A-League) traveled to New Zealand and played on the 15th. I know they're having a bad season but news broke out before kick off that they'd need to self isolate for 14 days when they returned to Australia and they put it a very ordinary performance. Need to remember that sportsmen are people too. I'm sure there are lots of us who've put in a below par day of work due to mental health/psychological effects/stress etc.

also too many soft floated kicks as well

I have mixed thoughts about the game. I'm not going to call them excuses but First Game of the Season Against Quality Opposition In the heat New players for the club Perhaps the uncertainty of the season did get to them at times. But at the end of the day as we've said here there were simple mistakes that cost us goals and the same issues what impacted us in 2019. Must improve the delivery into the F50. It was one of those games where the start killed us, They couldn't seem to miss, we couldn't seem to score. Just sad we need to wait a minimum of 10 weeks for more Kozzie Picket

“Mandatory 14-Day self-isolation for any person entering South Australia from anywhere in Australia. ” Starts Tuesday. enjoy the footy today, imagine this puts it on hold for a while

always enjoyed watching behind closed door soccer games for this very reason, it's interesting hearing the players communicate with each other. Reckon they'll eventually add some sort of noise on the broadcast tho

the English Football Association recognize it as the oldest club in the world. Either way they play in the =8th level in England in the football pyramid (with Premier League being 1st)

Premier League suspended until 30 April and we're carrying on here like it's business as usual (just sans fans), i really don't get it lol

we should be testing, testing, testing, but there aren't enough tests. I had a sore throat and some fatigue and what not during this week, and if i wanted to get tasted i'd have been told i'm not eligble to receive one. But yes it is crazy that a lot of sport is being suspended and we're seemingly happy to go for it.

Irish Demons duo return home in wake of corona crisis https://womens.afl/news/49367/irish-demons-duo-return-home-in-wake-of-corona-crisis Not ideal given the injury list.

Would look good next to our AFLX premiership.

Unless we win it
