NON-MFC: Round 07
Hipwood? Considering he’s probably 5+ inches taller and 10+ kg heavier?

How rest and preparation dictate AFL performance
Ok this makes sense in terms of what I could see with our running. Against Brisbane and then the first half of the Tigers game essentially (it looked better to 3/4 time), the whole team looked slower in terms of run. No bursting away from players or looking like many could hit full pace.

Who do you remember/ honour?
My Grandfathers cousin was Alf Baud who served in WW1. He is also Carlton’s youngest ever Premiership captain at 22. He enlisted and was deployed not long after this, got injured and was never able to play again. He was lucky enough to have been able to return and live until the age of 94. Roy ‘up there’ Cazaly said this of him: ‘Another great Carlton player was Alf Baud. He could play anywhere. The younger generation are proud to speak of the amazing balance of Haydn Bunton. I think that Baud, by comparison, would have made Bunton look ordinary. Baud would have been a football sensation had it not been for the war. That finished his career. His war injuries were severe. You would have stopped Baud one minute, or should I say you thought you had stopped him; then in a flash he was past you. He was a thinker. Every counter you met him with was in turn countered by this most elusive footballer. Baud was one of the greatest players we have produced. I don't think he ever reached his top. — Roy Cazaly, 5 June 1937‘ I think of him on Anzac Day. The older I get the more visceral sadness, anger and disgust I feel at the waste and destruction of entire generations of young people. Lest we forget.

Yeahhhhh… Not good. Not good at all.

Absolutely, I’ll be watching more eagles games now because of him. If he can consistently mark like that in F50 throughout his career then he’s basically a 7th forward. NIGHTMARE to play against.

Oh boy, just watched the Harley Reid highlights from last night… not sure I can recall in my lifetime a 19 y.o., 6 game midfielder, in a very average side, that is taking marks over packs like a veteran forward 🥶🥶🥶🥶

If it’s not us to win the flag, I want GWS to win. I never thought I’d say this, but I like them.

NON-MFC: Round 06
Someone in commentary said last night was only the 5th or 6th time Essendon has played the crows in Adelaide despite them being in the comp for 33 years. They were probably celebrating the fact that on average it will be another 5 years before they have to go back…

NON-MFC: Round 06
Oh right, I didn’t know that. Do you happen to know how that works? As in, does the afl sign off on that or is that the Giants decision? Do the giants get money to agree to it?

Giants not playing at their home stadium for 7 rounds in a row is madness

I thought the H’uns front page was apt. R’pist and a loser. Sensationalist media has a place after all.
