Which it was totally, we all know why it didn't work now dont we!!??

Clearly not, PF. Most do, but not all. There’s still that little core group of stubborn closed-minded folks who are holding out. They don’t think it’s an MFC [censored]-up, they know it, and there’s no telling them otherwise.

Don't worry, WCW. I think 99% of DLanders realise that Kent is a troll who misspells his name.

Yep, I forgot to not feed the troll aka he who uses the wrong vowel in his name. 😁

Smarty? Way to ingratiate yourself. 😂

I’m not stoopid enough to share anything I hear as a consequence of much time spent involved in various ways with the MFC. Suffice to say, folks ought not assume they know the whys and wherefores of any situation.

I like it. Better than another half dozen “here’s why X can’t win the flag” or “every team in the league is vying to sign 32yo cooked player on long term deal, sources (his agent) say” articles.. 

I also like it. I’m impressed with how comprehensive it is.

Geelong are last on the mullet ladder. They’d be on top of the headband ladder though. This calls for a Headband article!

I'd like to know the Grundy story?

I wish I didn’t.

It’s in the past anyways, where it belongs. But it’s super annoying to be in the Non-MFC thread and having to read the same old uninformed BS about ex-Dees and how our club failed them. It’s annoying in any thread, but particularly in this one. I’m really unwell and should’ve known better than to even go on DL let alone snap back at yet another clueless post about the whole Grundy affair. My bad. 🙄

Why didn't Cunningham get subbed off in the 1st with the head knock with the dogs player?

With a full complement of players the Dogs would have won that, Swans look tired and hanging on for dear life with 2 players more on the bench.

 

That’s what I was thinking… their heads collided, and with the same amount of force. Cunningham wasn’t even considered as potentially at risk let alone made to undergo a HIA.

Not at all. But it’s not worth discussing it with you, the MFC can do no wrong. 
We had a shocking offseason last Summer on many levels. Including off loading excellent players we are now paying dearly for. 

Then don’t. Simples.

I was appealing to PF to give up on the whole Grundy should still be with us thing because it’s pointless. This I know. I also know that it wasn’t as a result of the MFC [censored] up. Fact. Anyways it’s something that’s not worth discussing with me so 👋

You’ve never bought anything dirt-cheap from o/s? You must be wealthy. I’m not. 🤷‍♀️

I disagree. Should have been at least a 2 year project

We Have gifted Sydney Top Line Players for a paltry return 

So, two years wasted instead of one. Cool.

So you're crook @WalkingCivilWar.

What are your top 5 shopping sites?

Shein x5

They have everything a gal could wish for at ridiculously low prices. For example: I just found 10 toe-rings for $5! Free shipping on orders over $50 so I can either add another 90 toe-rings, or something entirely different that I also don’t need. 😃

GRUNDY IS A GREAT TAP RUCKMAN and should be MFC

Give up on it, PF. Was doomed from the outset. Was never gonna succeed. Nothing anyone could do or say would’ve made it work. Not the fault of the MFC.

Also, why do you yell so much???

Great start, Doggies!

Keep it up!!!

@binman walking into this thread after his absolutely staunch defence of ANBs disposal for some time. 

And deservedly so. It can’t have been easy to go in to bat for Nibs over and over, again and again and again in the face of set-in-their-ways, stubborn folks who refuse to give credit where it’s well n truly due, or rather, overdue. Binman’s a resolute and dogged supporter who knew all along that in Nibbla we have a consistently hard-working, loyal and valuable player. And a bloody nice guy, to boot.

Love Nibs to bits. ❤️💙

No such curse for our girls… 3-1 playing as Narrm 👊🏼

LOL

Maybe there is some ancient Indigenous ceremony that wards off evil spirits that could be conducted before Narrm play next time? 😁

Before anyone says anything… NO, I’ll NOT sacrifice one of my precious girls. 🤨

What is it with Adelaide and spelling? Do they not teach the three Rs in the city of churches?

Port have made errors on their banner two weeks in a row…

Their own city’s name!!!

And last week…

The spelling on the stand is correct. Not so the spelling on their banner.

And it’s not just Port. Last weekend this was Adelaide’s banner. Look away, @Demonstone

The rogue apostrophe strikes again!

Fun fact: Heritier Lumumba played 199 games for Collingwood meaning for his first game in red n blue he got a full 200 games milestone banner. Not bad for a “debutant” 😁

PS just a heads up… I’m laid up atm, sick af. Splitting my time between online shopping (with money I ain’t got) and Demonland coz looking for positivity. I know right?! 🤣🤣🤣

I've had a change of heart I'm not dropping Clarry I'm giving him another chance.

B: Petty, May, McVee

HB: Howes, McDonald, Rivers

C: Windsor, Petracca, Langdon

HF: Sestan, van Rooyen, Neal-Bullen

F: Pickett, Fritsch, McAdam

FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney

IC: Woewodin, Salem, Sparrow, Chandler

SUB: Tholstrup

EMERG: Laurie, Fullerton, Moniz-Wakefield

IN: Langdon, van Rooyen, Sestan, Tholstrup

OUT: Bowey (inj), Lever (inj), B. Brown (omitted), Billings (omitted)

Hopefully the news of Sestan debuting comes to fruition so Billings doesn't play.

How magnanimous of you.

Clarry is the number 1 problem in the midfield. He is unfit and should be dropped. You saying he shouldn't has justified my calling but don't worry gutless Goodwin won't drop him he never makes many changes it will be van Rooyen and Langdon in Brown and Lever out. Which means I won't be going to the footy because Billings will be playing. We drop this game I'm calling for Goodwin's head.

Presuming you’ve calmed down sufficiently, can you do something for me, can you re-read your post (above) then convince me that you’re not three years old. Geez Louise, talk about a toddler tanty 😂

Hard to judge. He is the first indigenous player I’ve seen who was noticeably nervous. Most on the surface appear confident and self assured. Hope he can make that spot his own

Right??? This stood out like dog’s proverbials. He was terribly nervous and flustered and of course that’s gonna affect his game. I believe once he can get a handle on this we’ll see what he’s really capable of.

Love watching Bontempelli play.
(not against us though)

Most of my ‘favourites’ from other clubs have retired; I find it a lot easier to appreciate opposition players when they are close to the end.

There were about 16 MFC AfLW training.

Some first drills involved capture of ribbon. They moved the ball with the emphasis on forward structure. Goal kicking, then 5 minutes of play each way. They bibbed up. Hore in control, setting standards. Coach Stinnear matched up to Taylor, teaching her about the body work and positioning needed as a defender. Ivey was amazing, great talent, good forward craft and has the ability to hit goals. Purcell went through some physio test, then joined the team for the sims. Powerful movements and skills. Mithin was full of leadership qualities and looking fit and strong, Lampard and Bannan showing skills and experience. Goldrick ready to go. Fitzsimon quick mover, Zanker clean hands and getting some goals off, 1 step. The standards were very good, they trained quite extensively.

Turner was down with a trainer. Successfully ran a few laps at pace, was in footy boots, seemed to have ticked a box.

Love you, Kev 💕

PS Tayla in defence? Interesting 

The ex-Demons JH club: Jayden Hunt, James Harmes and Jesse Hogan. But NOT Jeremy Howe. Boo!
