Lobb has all the presence of a wilted lettuce leaf.

It would make sense to have a different club song but I couldn’t care less about the colours or their nickname. That’s what away / clash guernseys are for. There must be at least a dozen teams in the English football pyramid that wear black & white vertical stripes and call themselves The Magpies but none throw their toys out about it like Eddie Everywhere.

Yeah, nah.

And can he belt out a tune like a welshman.

I think less is often more when it comes to commemorative guernseys and this one works well.

Shouldn’t this thread be called If Melbourne Tanked Again? At the end of the day, with a draft and salary cap in place it’s not as if you can just go out and buy up the best talent. If this leaves bottoming out in the short term as the best alternative then so be it. As long as a club doesn’t go crying to the AFL for priority draft picks after gutting their list then fine.

Where's the Weid? Has he been dropped already?

I wonder if the Hawthorn board will hold their nerve with Sam Mitchell if they keep getting pummelled like this.

If Hawthorn only want to recruit players that will be part of their next premiership then they should be scouting prenatal clinics.

I guess there can't be a deliberate out of bounds free kick paid until the ball has actually gone out of bounds? The time clock on the live feed showed 00:00 well before the ball went over the boundary line but the siren didn't sound until after. Should've been paid as a deliberate out of bounds against Brayshaw with a minute and a half left on the clock. Freo should have tried the Lever to Gawn dink kick to Darcy with fifty seconds left instead of kicking to a pack at the top of the square. Stupid decision to burn precious seconds by taking a short kick on the outer side with just thirteen seconds left. Kudos to the Roos for not conceding even a point in that last thirty seconds but so many bad decisions from both sides in that last couple of minutes.

Probably on a kneed to know basis for now.

He also converted a van with his brother and started a mobile food truck business called The Bearded Jaffle. Knocks them out for $14 each.

I think he actually lives in Malvern now GtG. Still owns the pad in Blairgowrie though as a friend of mine lives on the same street.

Bizarre. Lose our best player and talisman just after the first bounce. Horrible at the coalface. Horrible hitting targets inside 50. 11 point loss. I fear the worst for Maxy. I don't think it's a coincidence that his three closest mates at the club, Clarry, Trac and Gus were flat as a tack from that moment on.

FFS. They still have enough power to play John Denver on an endless loop! Let's take the 40 point loss. Will only get worse if they re-start this one I think.

I never really read the game day thread once the ball is bounced and now I know why. Poor Maxy. The boys must have sensed something because they've been playing as if they're shellshocked. I know we're not out of this game based on the scoreboard but it still has the potential to get very ugly if we don't improve quickly.

I could happily watch Carlton be irrelevant for another 20 years Wodja.

Back to back March premierships for the Blues. What a time to be alive!

I thought that Fox were going to have their own commentators for CH7 games this year so we wouldn't have to listen to BT and Brayshaw?

I've made a snap decision to want Carlton to lose because of that annoying drum when they get a goal.

You must have a really good memory Chook. I can barely remember anything prior to 2021.

Today's games have been a festival of dross. Can't imagine what it would be like having to watch this stuff week after week.

Perhaps that's good. Builds up false expectations in their fan base before they meet the Melbourne buzzsaw.
