Thank god Goodwin signed for four more years.

It’s pretty simple really. Jordan Lewis rings his good mate Luke Hodge and says “Hey Hodgy do you reckon you can hook me up with some Lite and Easy?” Hodge replies “this isn’t for Petracca is it?” ”no mate, it’s for me, the kids have made me pack on a few lately”. ..and voila Christian is all set with meals for the next 21 weeks.

We should’ve gone on the camp.

Relax guys, he’ll fill out as the season goes on. This is just pre season light weight conditioning.

Exactly, when was the last time you can remember a Melbourne player hitting a clean pin point pass to a player on the lead inside 50?

I sat there watching it in real time and can’t remember the next 3 days.

Edit - mistake.

The forward line is non existent and Gawn is having zero influence on games thus far. We also take next to no contested marks around the ground as opposed to almost every other side in the AFL. Regardless of form get Preuss in the side to not only provide ruck support, but allow us to sit a tall in the forward line and take a key defender. Work the small forward situation out, we currently have nothing to offer here. Until ANB learns to apply physical pressure get him out of the side! Aerobic, two way running my [censored] - means nothing if you aren’t willing to put your body on the line and win the ball.

Good point. Cheese are way out of his league.

Brad Scott coaches North Melbourne.

Has the football IQ of a packet of twisties.

We played like rubbish and yes there are some worrying signs. However people quickly forget Port were sitting 4th on the ladder after Round 19 last year. They had a great hand on draft day and have recruited well...they are no joke.

In Bali for this one, surrounded by bogans with Bintang in hand at 10.30am, so really no different from when I’m in the MCC. Cmon Demons!

Correct...we should be following in Nigel Smart’s pre season footsteps..

Taking a player because you believe someone else may take them down the track goes against Taylor’s “best available” philosophy though. I have no idea whether the players we picked up will be any good or not, seems Taylor has a blue collar philosophy on recruiting though. He likes players that have to earn their keep. Small town types that will do anything to make it..

Maybe spare a thought for Kate Hore from our women’s team..

Well they traded pick 30 to freo for pick 34, so it didn’t work.

Why? They knew they weren’t getting a pick tonight, now they can take their time knowing what’s already gone.

How so doc?

The Beams trade is for pick 18 and likely pick 14-18 next year. 6 and 23 is a better deal, regardless of the the “first round” tag... in my opinion.

Actual footage of May training immediately after being traded.

If it was Caramel Crowns you wouldn’t have been able to post that due to a supreme euphoric state.
