@picket fence takes out and replaces @binman on the pod -
How on earth did Nibbler NOT get votes in this game:
Saints. Ex Caulfield Grammar too. Probably hates all the blue blood Melbourne Grammar Demon supporters 🤣
Quickest player I have ever seen (never saw Bluey Adams though):
https://www.afl.com.au/news/1217662/eddie-betts-luke-breust-and-ranking-the-top-10-small-forwards How on earth can Aaron Davey not make this list? Basically invented the defensive, high pressure small forward role in his debut year of 2004 (another fun year to watch @layzie). I seem to recall Rioli admitted at one point in his career that he was influenced by the Flash
Yep, 9 goals in 40 minutes. And kicked 7 straight the following week against the Hawks at the G
Surely not....
I guess that's project #3 she couldn't get done, unfortunately. Project #1 Project #2 (thanks to consortium links to Scientology and China) All fart, no poo
Beat our average attendance this year of 34,929 at home games
No surprise. Didn't do a preseason. And chose a Nike sponsored trip to the Paris Olympics over her teammates. If she wants to be a professional footballer, she should start acting like one
So 10 players aged 30+ next year, all of whom missed games this year through injury (except Jack the unbreakable). Let's hope they can all stay on the park next year!
Why not? Nearly everyone on this site casting votes has watched the games, is a Melbourne supporter and knows footy. And if you don't think the poll is a fair assessment, then why does your favourite stat, Wheelo's player rating, list him behind 5 midfielders:
Difference being Raygun is going to profit $$$ from it massively
Biggest media pile on a club since the Essendon peptides saga. When will it stop?
Unquestionably? Why then are there 6 midfielders listed above him in the Dland "player of the year"?
When @binman said on the podcast 3 weeks ago, after getting absolutely pantsed by Freo, that he would be "shocked if we don't make finals"
Never? TMac would have won his fair share of one-on-one battles over his 200+ game career! He has been a great servant of the club. Was an absolute forward beast in 2018. Pretty sure he would have won the majority of his one-on-one battles then. And he really gave it a crack this year as a 3rd tall defender, considering he is at the end of his career and all the injuries he has had to deal with over the last few years. But yes, his last 2 games have been horrible and potentially career ending.
Josh Mahoney had a hand in all of those trades
So unlucky. Happened when he slipped on the MCC wing in the last 20 seconds of the game and got crunched by a Peatling tackle
May - body is shot
No. BBB not there. Sparrow has responded. 20 disposals to HT. One bad clanger though
https://www.mcg.org.au/the-stadium/mcg-history/timeline 1859 "The first inter-club game under Melbourne Football Club rules (the basis of Australian rules football) was played at the MCG over two Saturdays, July 9 and 23. The Melbourne Football Club defeated South Yarra three goals to nil." 1883 "Arrangements were made by which the Carlton Football Club played several of their best matches on the MCG." 1890 "On March 7 the Melbourne Football Club became affiliated with the Melbourne Cricket Club" Doesn't really suggest that Carlton became a "tenant" of the G in 1883. The G was pretty much solely a cricket ground until 1890
10-5 free kicks to Carlton that quarter. 4 of them directly resulting in goals for Carlton. Usual bias
