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
-
Just more talk and speculation
-
At least the 50 year member category is still around. Might be gone by the time we get there

Averaged around 15 disposals, 5 marks, 5 hitouts per game. And kicked 30 goals across 18 games. Similar stats in 2022. Just give the guy a chance in the seniors. Who knows - he may surprise everyone on this forum
-
Yep I do. And I reckon he's p*ssed off
-
Didn't Fullarton have 30 hit outs in a VFL match a few weeks ago? Classy by Goodwin to pump up Fullarton's tyres in public. And wonder if he noticed Pup's 24 tackles on the weekend? Didn't seem to notice/reward Pup's match saving one against Norf

He is becoming a more rounded player, week by week, and the stats prove that "conclusively". If that isn't improvement, I don't know what is. And I am sure Longmuir is very happy with the role he is playing in that forward line where the other key forwards (i.e. Treacy, Jackson, Banfield, etc.). are sharing it around
-
Not sure what stats you are looking at. He is currently on track for more kicks, kicking efficiency, disposals inside 50, metres gained, ground ball gets, inside 50 marks, more shots on goal, goal assists, tackles, pressure acts, spoils, one percenters on last year's stats. And again, 7 games to go plus finals. Sheesh
