Training Ground?
Two factors may include the reciprocal arrangement the MCC have with the Melb Racing Club based at Caulfield, plus us being listed as an MCC sporting section (I'm [censored] if i know what that actually means). Maybe they see a cash injection as getting influence into the planned development, possibly securing some spaces or facilities that could be utilised by MCC members on race days...?

2024 Brownlow Medal
Aren't the weekly nominees selected by public vote? If so huge bias towards the big clubs, especially those whose supporters aren't rendered time poor by such inconveniences as employment.

Training Ground?
The GLC - Goody Learnings Centre

Have we lost an edge?
Speaking of someone that has lost the edge. Goes from a genuine innovator on the 80s/90s to be indistinguishable from pedestrian session guitarists.

TMac Re-Signs for 1 Year
TMac is one of footy's great stories, going at pick 53 or so in the draft, overcoming challenging foot injuries and reinventing himself at both ends of the ground over the years. Good on him!

Tony Charlton's Football Show: 'Norm Smith Sacked'. The entire 1hr live episode.
I'm sincerely hoping history bears this out.

Kate Roffey Steps Down
Ah, thanks for clarifying - I forgot their playing careers overlapped. ... still hilarious though.

Kate Roffey Steps Down
Wowee, that's hilarious! Good grief I do wonder what's been going on behind closed doors to precipitate a tweet like that, though.

NON-MFC: Finals Week 01
Just reported on AFL.com.au that Sam Frost is out for the year with foot stress fracture. Bit of a blow for Hawthorn (who cares), but I'm sad for Frosty as a sometimes entertaining former Demon.

Geologists have just confirmed that the Barassi Line has shifted further north just now.

Christian Petracca
He's dead to me.

NON-MFC: Finals Week 01
Feels like a lifetime ago when we comprehensively dealt with both of these teams back early in the season.

Pert and Roffey - The Review Thread
That's wierd - I would have thought sponsors would sign up for at least a season - did a shorts sponsor pull out or something? Why would Hertz have gotten a discount in the 2nd half of the year - some kind of trigger clause relating to membership numbers reached or crowd numbers or something?

Darren Burgess Potential Return to Victoria
Maybe that's what has motivated his desire to leave the state?

2024 All Australian Squad
We will be able to tell our grandkids that we were privileged to watch the Great Max Gawn play. What a legend.

KOZZY A DEMON FOR LIFE!!!
Hah! Like where Trac's from?

2024 All Australian Squad
There was a fair bit of Gawn and AA mentions in commentary during the last two of our games this season. Fingers crossed.

Jordan De Goey
Good god, De Goey and Crisp? Pies can keep their bar-groping and tween sexting filth, thanks.

Tom Lynch
Would the Tigers give us their first-rounder to take him off their hands? 32 next year and injury-ravaged. No thanks.

If only Luke Jackson hadn’t left…
Well, sure. On the other hand 2m key fwds are like hen's teeth at trade time. No BBB likely no 2021 flag. So getting him on the 4 years needed to peel him out of North may have cost us a theoretical 2nd flag, but the alternative may well have been zero flags. I know which I prefer.
