What are you talking about? I was talking about May.

Great post Bing. Spargo is an absolute scapegoat for our forward line problems. He obviously has his current limitations (speed, kicking penetration), but he at least gets amongst it and makes a contest. Garlett should be sent to Casey and never return.

You’re taking the [censored] aren’t you? What does that statement even mean? Did you watch the game today? We would have been flogged even further without May back there.

Amazing isn’t it. Manufacturing things to suit the argument. May was good. We would have lost by ten goals if it wasn’t for him and Lever.

It’s called passion. The spray is irrelevant. Im not even sure he’s looking at Hore.

Currently on the way home on the Hurstbridge line and thank Christ I’m off the Mernda line given the amount of NQR Collingwood supporters. Can I for once go to a game of [censored] football and enjoy myself. I envy Collingwood, Geelong, Richmond and Hawthorn supporters of the past! Our backline did their best today, lever and May played their part, none of this is their fault. The onballers won the clearances, but got ripped apart on the outside...but what’s new. The problem is the god damn forward [censored] line!! We had enough forward entries, shots on goal etc etc!! No one can give a decent lead. No one can take a contested mark. No one can apply forward pressure. No one can crumb. No one can kick a set shot. No one can snap a goal. Where the [censored] do I stop?? Garlett needs to be dropped and delisted ASAP. Spargo tried hard but isn’t up to it, bring Lockhart in ASAP. Tom McDonald is embarrassing to watch, drop to casey with his brother. I hope to hell the club starts looking at forwards at the end of this year. We need an abundance of mid/small size forwards that work their guts out and actually impact the scoreboard. [censored] me. My Dad can suck on a microwaved can of [censored] for making me follow this mob!

Won't be slippery. Forecast is fine and sunny for this afternoon and i'm currently at work in the city and all rain has cleared.

Really liked the look of Chandler today. Kids hard at it, has some pace and has solid foot skills.

Cmon man...it’s called a light touch work session. Every AFL club does it.

What a disgraceful 50m penalty that was. Eyes for the ball, running at full tilt, jumped at the ball with arms in chest mark position. Player running back with the ball does so at his own risk. Good strong gutsy mark, but that’s where it ends. Go back and take your kick.

Oliver will play. If it’s just a tight back, he has the bye next week to recover. Would be a different story if we had a 5 day break going into next week.

I’ve experienced a better atmosphere in the Coroners Court.

One thing is clear here....Leoncelli_36 is partial to Asian food.

Because missing finals and getting top draft picks has worked out so consistently well for us in the past...

Despite his (typically) very good game let’s not forget Gawn’s absolute sitter of a dropped mark in the last, on the forward flank that subsequently led to a two goal turnaround. That moment was almost the turning point in the game.

The beers were going down so well at half time, yet once again the MFC have managed to slip another rohypnol into my drink and my life I’m general.

Enjoy. I’m not going. Incantation next gig for me.

Bolzer?

Needs to adapt to the scientifically, complex Melbourne game plan systems.

He was a great kick if you like the ball spinning forwards instead of backwards.

Rubbish kick.

It worked last year because we were sharp off the ground with the contested ball. We aren’t this year...we are a step behind, unclean and the delay in getting the ball off is setting up the handball recipient, putting them under pressure. Our game plan works if everyone is on. Unfortunately with the pre season we have had and injuries endured that was never going to happen. I dare say we will see it in a game/s before the end of the year and we will literally [censored] someone.

So i think you just answered your own question...it’s not “cheating” it’s risk for reward and the last time the chaos ball game plan worked in a GF I dare say was the Bulldogs in 2016.

Vandenberg is in his first year of a new 3 year deal he is zero chance of being delisted. Chandler has done nothing wrong as a first year rookie to deserve being moved on.
