Plus two separate bye round guernseys because, hey why not.- TRAINING: Tuesday 31st March 2026
Unless they get over the unbeaten Dogs this week they will be out to avoid breaking what would be a club record of 18 consecutive defeats when they take us on in Adelaide.- Gather Round Guernsey
Maybe they counted sponsors proxy votes again.- Gather Round Guernsey
Maybe it's an optical illusion but the yoke looks to be too long and thin on the jumpers the players are modelling. It's a little wider on the long sleeved version though. Definitely the least horrible of the three choices offered.- POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs Carlton
Fair play to you for presenting No.31. It's fair to say that the only people who like Carlton are Carlton supporters so you've given yourself a tough gig mixing it with this motley crew but we appreciate your candour. Rest assured as the lesser of two evils we'll all be on the Blues bandwagon when you play the pies. I hope you get your wish to visit Europe. Who knows, you might bump into Vossy!- Gather Round Guernsey 2026
Actually no, that's not the case. Normal Round will allow for every team to wear their original guernsey irrespective of whether it clashes with their opponent or not. In fact it will actively be encouraged. Port Adelaide have even asked Eddie for permission to wear their prison bar guernsey if they're drawn to play Collingwood.- Gather Round Guernsey 2026
The AFL have decreed that Round 8 each year is to be designated Normal Round in recognition of absolutely nothing and to get into the spirit of things we're planning on wearing the following snazzy number.- POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs Carlton
Watching the last quarter where Carlton have just scored their final goal. From that moment we score 44 points and they score 1 point in the final 14 minutes. The same 43 point differential they held on us earlier in the game. Also the moment Max came back onto the ground to put on another rucking clinic.- Farewell Clayton Oliver
Actually it looks like Matt Jones is in the photo they all took together on the ground. I think he's next to Harmesy.- Farewell Clayton Oliver
It's entirely possible that Claz was out clubbing until 6am and also present at the game. I wouldn't read too much into the non-appearance of BP5. He's rehabbing a hammy and flying may not be the best idea at the moment. Max & Jess were both at his wedding last year so I'd doubt there would be any issues between the pair of them. Matt Jones is a good friend of Max and i didn't see him there. People have other commitments.- Your personal indulgences following a win
I used to go to The Tippler on Wellington Parade with a mate after a game but it only appears to be open for about 3 hours a week these days. I absolutely hate people who think it's OK to flick through mindless videos on their phone without earbuds on public transport. Except for the guy in red & blue re-watching that last quarter on his mobile phone at full volume surrounded by Blues supporters on my Sunbury line train home last night ❤️- The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread
That's weird Dannyz. I didn't write that post you commented on.- POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs Carlton
Spursy = Bluesy- POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs Carlton
I'm really enjoying watching each game in isolation at the moment without looking at them in any larger context.- NON-MFC: Round 03
Like EPL through the years with Liverpool, Man U, Chelsea and Man City.- NON-MFC: Round 03
Why do so many people support Essendon? 🤷🏻♂️- NON-MFC: Round 03
Nah. Gold Coast. And Carlton's sends me to sleep.- NON-MFC: Round 03
Did they recruit these umpires from the RVIB?- NON-MFC: Round 03
The throwback Fitzroy guernsey looks great. Would it date back to when they were known as the gorillas? I wish they still were.- Former Brisbane Lion Leigh Ryswyk becomes first openly gay AFL player
I thought that the term woke was appropriated years ago by old white bitter conservatives for anything they don't happen to like. The only person I ever hear use it is my boss at work.- The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread
Relax. By the time Caulfield has been approved the players will be able to teleport themselves across the track.- The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread
Unless of course it's cold, or wet, or an inconvenient time of day, or they're running replacement buses. Effectively the same excuses we use not to turn up to our games.- NON-MFC: Round 03
Claz is still a good link up player but has lost his early acceleration out of traffic. He's probably worth the $700k or so that the Giants are paying him but not the $1.4m he's collectively raking in annually. For that money he should be a game changer but I think he'll be doing well to see out the next five years of his contract. - POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs Carlton
