What is missing to win a flag?
The recent state of origin games were a good indication of what we need to be considered really top class. How many players did we have that were required by Dimma and Horse? We do not have one player that would be considered the best in the league in their given position. Max is in the conversation and that's it. Plenty are better than average, but we don't have anyone that will win us a game by themselves ala Dusty, Danger, Fyfe etc

Robbo's Top 50 Players
I think there would be 5-6 I'd take before Danger now

Robbo's Top 50 Players
Bont is a brave choice, I like it. I don't see enough of Fyfe to appreciate his work, I only watch Melbourne games. Dusty is frustratingly good, just turns it on when needed

TEAMS: MS02 vs Hawthorn
ANB is an extra man for any opposition we play. He's had a go and is definitely a good athlete, but we simply must expect more now
-
TEAMS: MS02 vs Hawthorn
As exciting as Kossie is, it would be hard to carry him in the west against a very stacked eagles side.
- Jayden Hunt

POSTGAME: PM02 vs Kangaroos
I was wondering this also, expected us to get comfortably beaten
-
TEAMS: MS01 vs Adelaide
I am hopeful it doesn't pan out that way, but we will see
-
TEAMS: MS01 vs Adelaide
I'm guessing a few of the named blokes don't actually play. Look what that team sheet has done to the enthusiasm in here after last week's injury woes. Same will be going on in most Dees supporters houses.

TEAMS: MS01 vs Adelaide
Surely there’s no need to play funny buggers with the lineup in some meaningless practice match? It’s a lot more on the park than this time last year, but that team isn’t giving the top sides sleepless nights

2020 Leadership Group
Agree with all of the above. He's very articulate and well spoken. My theory is he will keep being all those things without any title.

2020 Leadership Group
I'm not so passionate about T-mac being in there. I think Gawn/Viney are co-captains, despite what I'd prefer. Gawn/Viney (C) Lever, May, Jetta as the remainder of leadership group. Waiting in the wings would be Harmes

To Hell & Back Episode 1
One of the things this series will/should do is turn the blowtorch on the players. Every club does these things, but the media will have a field day slicing this up if things continue along like last year. It’s great to hear a few tidbits about where things are at this year, although I would have liked to hear about this time last year to see what was going on when things were spiralling out of control I’m really keen to see us marching back up the ladder in 2020

Cornes: Dees Win the Preseason
Agreed. It appears the consensus is it's just going to happen and we'll waltz back into finals. I'm not so sure

One thing you'd like to see in 2020
Would love to see T-Mac rediscover his form of 2018 and display it consistently , think he's the most important cog in this puzzle
-
Who takes the FF position?
I don't think Fritsch is strong enough to play one out. He needs clear space around him to run and jump at the ball. Weid will be first picked i'd say, but fear he doesn't have the mongrel in him to be a commanding presence. Work ethic will have Brown will come in after 3-4 rounds is my guess

Inside the Draft
A very enjoyable little piece from the Melbourne media team.
-
TRAINING: Wednesday 4th December 2019
As mentioned, Brown definitely looks like he put in.
- Best 22? / Next 22??

Half-Time breaks
I agree with this 100%. I never watch a night game past half time, the break is just long enough to realise I've probably had more beers than I should and cut myself off and call it a night. If the break was halved, I'd just keep plowing on

Simon Goodwin on SEN (28/11/19)
Appears we will have a 200cm big-big bodied mid running round very soon Also, haven't seen a pic of Gaz in a while, that was a surprise!

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
I think this is the logic recruiters use. Someone like ANB springs to mind. He's always around the contest with his elite running, but is never doing anything WOW
-
TRAINING: Monday 18th November 2019
Would love to see some of the permanent mids challenging for the top 5 later in the pre-season

Fritsch Eager to Take it Up a Notch
His demonland podcast contained every Goodwin cliche under the sun.

Tom Green (Drafted by GWS Giants)
If they all make it fit and firing to Rd 1, that's great, but we still need a rotation or two.
