  1. You Bloody ripper. Well done MFC for getting this done.
  2. How good has our set shot kicking for goal been this year? Kudos to Choco whatever he is doing it's worth every cent we're paying him. He just needs to work more with Max. Big Maxy had a few opportunities to kick some real Captain's goals and just didn't nail them. If we're going to be using him more and more up forward he has to be a more reliable shot for goal.
  3. Young ROOEY had a day out on debut. 3 goals, took a fantastic grab, didn't look at all lost, rucked admirably when called upon. I can't wait to see more of him. What did you guys think of his game?
  4. I'd like to get your thoughts on a couple of the results in some other games. Last week the Power thrashed the Lions who in turn thrashed us (excluding the last 12 minutes) and the Power too had their lights turned out by the Pies. Where does that place us in terms of the Magpies who are now rightly the Premiership favourites. How does our thrashing of the Bulldogs look in light of an injury riddles Saints also thrashing the Bulldogs by 50 points?
  5. When Viney went down at training I heard from a very good source that everyone including Viney himself thought he had torn an ACL. He is already back playing. Fingers and toes crossed.
  6. Loving the poddy guys. Lifting the bar every week. Just wanted to get your opinion on our use of the tactical sub in particular using Melky. I think most of us suspected a James Jordon type who could cover a number of roles across the field if we had an injury. I don’t think any of us expected Melky and I reckon he was used perfectly. What you guys reckon? Do you think he will become a professional sub or will we mix it up?
  7. I'm in Sydney and won't be getting to see any matches live until later in the season. My plans stereotypically include a charcuterie board and some wine.
  8. It will be interesting to hear what they have say after the carnage announcements yesterday.
  9. Carlton (will be over by halftime) Geelong North Brisbane Melbourne (although I'm not convinced given our outs) Sydney Adelaide Essendon Fremantle
  10. The 4 tall forwards are going to be a worry for us and will stretch us without May. Do not discount Tim English drifting forward either. He has kicked 6.3 in 7 matches against us. We seem to struggle to match up against his height when he's resting in the forward line even with May in the side.
  11. My comment and question for the panel - It's a good bet that Judd McVee will get a game early, if not named in Round 1. JVR will surely get a look in at some point in the season. Which other Rookie do you guys think will debut for the Demons in 2023? Team to Rise: Gold Coast Team to Fall: Collingwood
  12. Perhaps a follow up to this one. There is certainly merit in spreading the midfield load around so as not to burn out our three stars (Trac, Clarry and Vines) but how confident are you in our second and third tier mids that it won't be costly against some of the contenders? Granted we won't be going with many all no-name brand centre bounce attendances but we don't want to be robbing Peter to pay Paul.
  13. Are we repeating history? Seems no need to play and risk Lever and his dodgy ankles today. Get him cherry ripe for Round 1.
  14. I don't think it is as simple as that. Already in this thread there have been issues identified in 3 of 5 of our most important players.
  15. That was rubbing salt in the wounds. I escape the rugby heartland only to be treated to rugby training on our training oval. Then I take a leisurely long walk back to the hotel on a beautiful morning only to get caught in a downpour. Thanks Melbourne.
  16. Down from Sydney for the week and was looking forward to repaying the DemonLand Track Watchers by writing my own report from Training. Us interstaters are so thankful for all the pre-season training reports that we get from DemonLand. Our press here knows only rugby and any skerrits of info on AFL is about the Swans. Very disappointed that training was moved to another venue without warning. yeah yeah i know it says that that can happen but it would have been nice for a heads up. This wasn't a last minute decision to change venues. They would have notified all and sundry last night. At least I got to experience 4 seasons in one day in Melbourne again.
  17. this is plausible too. I really hope a poorly worded social media post hasn’t soured the relationship between Kozzy and the club.
  18. For the post to be deleted by the club someone was offended. It might not be Kozzy but the “Thick” reference could be interpreted as fat shaming or body shaming and the club is just being PC about it. Perhaps Kozzy came back out of shape, not my opinion as I think he looks to be in beast mode, but maybe he came back a bit heavier but social media didn’t get the memo and posted what they did and then were asked to remove it either by Kozzy or the FD. Anyway this is all purely conjecture and probably has no bearing in reality.
  19. I’ve never voted (or sent a proxy) in any MFC Board election but this whole kerfuffle by the member has backfired and I’ve given the President my proxy.
  20. Because the club he nominated had no capital and we had no bargaining power. He pretended for the cameras that he wasn't doing the dirty on us by not nominating a club but behind closed doors he was only nominating one club. He or he hiding behind his management [censored] us and we just had to take it.
  21. I had zero problems getting to Perth both times we played them this season nor have I had any problems getting anywhere around Australia or internationally since the borders reopened. Just be honest Luke. You're looking like a bigger [censored] every time you open your mouth. The Premiership medallion offers you protection from criticism but just don't stray too far into Scully territory.
  22. Firstly thank you guys for all of your measured analysis during the year on this podcast. Given the experience of drafting Luke Jackson from WA and his subsequent request to go home after his first contract are you at all sheepish on drafting kids from interstate with high picks in the future?
  23. Prediction and Preference time. If we lose this week we will be playing the winner of Brisbane and Richmond at the MCG? Who would the panelists prefer to play and why? If we win this week we go straight into a Prelim and potentially face Geelong, Collingwood, Fremantle or Bulldogs at the G. Who of that quartet would you prefer to face off in a Preliminary Final? And finally if you could have your pick who would you like to play in a Grand Final?
  24. Reports were that Trac left the training track on the weekend with a calf complaint. The club insists that he will be fine to line up against the Swans. Someone in the thread about his injury claims that Tony Jones reported that Trac cancelled his media commitments for today. If Trac fails to prove his fitness for Friday who comes in to replace him?
  25. Just wanted to get your thoughts on Harmes' return to the side and his match and do you think he is best 22?
