MFC Rebranding for Indigenous Round
Does anyone know if this can be used as our clash? I love our indigenous gurnseys, would like to understand if they can be something more ingrained through the season.

CHANGES : Rd 08 vs St. Kilda
Not a problem monoccular. I read it in an article on The Age. Doesn’t attribute to any specific source though. https://amp.theage.com.au/sport/afl/we-ve-got-a-plan-yze-to-lead-demons-as-goodwin-ruled-out-with-covid-19-20220427-p5aghm.html

CHANGES : Rd 08 vs St. Kilda
I don’t think we should rush players in from Covid. If they need it, give them another week to get back to normal and match fit. This can have quite an impact on different people and have to think about injuries if they come in unfit. Also, after watching the Saints game last night I really think they will struggle with recovery. They were absolutely cooked in that humidity and contest, let alone a travel day. Would prefer to see the same team as yesterday have another tilt.

CHANGES : Rd 08 vs St. Kilda
I’d like to see Bedford stay and play a sticky role on Sinclair. The Saints ability to move it quickly and accurately off half back is their key strength. In the past, say against the Dogs, has Spargo played this role? Alternatively Hunt.

POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Awesome by Bedford. That running crum and his running goal were fantastic. Very hard to do and without him we would have looked even more flat. Depending on how some of the team recover, would love to see him get a second gig.

POSTGAME: Rd 06 vs Richmond
That head high impact to Dunstan was pretty rubbish. Was already being tackled and the other bloke elected to shoulder into his head. Should be reported for that.

2022 Match Review Panel
The closest similar incident I could think of to Cotchin’s studding was Campbell Brown’s 4 week suspension for studding James Strauss in the face back in 2013. Was deemed a secondary action requiring Strauss to get medical attention - together with Brown’s appalling record. Whilst Cotchin’s was a secondary movement too, Walker didn’t need medical attention and Cotchin has a relatively good record. Good call, play on.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
Haha you beat me to the edit! It’s the pronunciation of a keg party at the end of one… usually slurring the ‘eeee’s put a bit more!

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
I’ve got a standing annual bet with a Bulldogs mate on which team finishes higher on the ladder. Been going on for about 7 years and has cost me dearly… but not this time! It rotates between a keg party or long lunch, and today’s the day! If you live around Nortcote, there is a strong weather warning of smugness 😁

Anyone know what the match worn guernseys went for?

Wilson’s Big Call
Her article about Goodwin the day before the grand final was atrocious. Took pot shots at his gambling background, Essendon drug history, divorce and near sacking. Absolute gutter journalism.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
On my 5th full replay. It’s honestly the best game of football I’ve ever seen.

The turning point
Wow it’s interesting watching that, but just focusing on Jackson. Jackson kept his feet when Martin went to ground twice, in the first clip the Bulldogs nearly had the ball at the start and Jackson immediately ran to the defensive side as a sweeper and the last clip shows how multifaceted Jackson is. English takes himself out of the game after the centre bounce and simply trudges but Jackson’s speed and intensity makes it like having another midfielder. Sure, Brown has a point that their lack of defensive structure facilitated our scoring and turning point. But it was Jackson and the mids who had to win it in the first place.
