The Premiership rings and the life membership. Absolutely fantastic move. (Just caught up on Roffey's speech during the break)

Just to clarify, I'm not advocating for Weid at all, other than maybe as support for Brown (which I think he needed).

Yeah I love that the Brad Scott v David King rivalry is back and spicy as ever!

Yep, totally get that, and we don't have a stat around that - but a defenders impetus is to punch it away just as much, if not more, than a forward trying to bring it to ground, so to be beaten 8 to 1 gives a fair indicator of how those contests are going IMO.

Yep, so for reference then - The stat from after our round 17 game was Brown had been targeted inside 50 45 times, he marked it once and was outmarked 8 times.

Haha fair enough. TBF looking for logic among Bombers fans can be a bit like being a FF for the Dees - Frustrating and confusing.

And then there's this guy... (Can't stay on the board now surely?)

Not sure if serious? A lot of them (possibly bizarrely) seem rapt with him...

Yeah, you'd take bringing the ball to ground over being outmarked, but I'd still take an actual goal ahead of either...

Fair play mate. You're a very different beast on game day I've discovered!

I'd take a goal over the chance of possibly getting goal any day. 'Bringing the ball to ground is more important than goals' is one of the strangest comments I've read here, and I'm sure deep down you understand when coaches talk about bringing the ball to ground they aren't implying it's the best outcome when going forward; ahead of actually kicking a goal.

Ok.

Real dazzledavey in a game day thread vibes....

Get the impression this is Rockliff trying to build his media presence in a similar way to how Kane Cornes did early on in his career.

"The sleeping one that there’s enough noise around is Kozzie Pickett," Rocky said. "I still think… he’s a possibility to be in Port Adelaide colours next year."

In addition to the proposed formal changes within the constitution, the Constitution will now include a Preamble that enshrines important aspects of our club’s history which we know are so important to our members.

If you post a Twitter or YouTube link it will do it automatically for you.

From July this year... Ben Brown has been targeted inside 50m one-on-one 45 times this season. He has taken one mark from those battles — a junk-time grab on Marcus Adams (Lions) late in the fourth quarter. He has been out-marked eight times. Early Tackle: Sam Landsberger’s Likes and Dislikes from round 17 This 'halving contest' stuff around Brown is rubbish. He was terrible this year. "That number matters as much if not more than goals." Seriously. You don't truly believe that right?

In addition to the proposed formal changes within the constitution, the Constitution will now include a Preamble that enshrines important aspects of our club’s history which we know are so important to our members. We wanted to create something that captures the rich history of the Melbourne Football Club and sparks a feeling of pride amongst all Melbourne people. I think we have certainly achieved this outcome, and I am excited to be able to share the proposed Preamble with you all.

So it was a coincidence that we also started training there more often after millions was spent upgrading it? Also, it's the base of our VFL, VFLW and AFLW teams, but if you think they're not part of the club then perhaps take that up with Roffey...

Ummmm because it was our facilities at Casey? I mean, we've been training there, what around 80% of the time since 2020?
