    Plus crowd support and as a result, umpiring favour. Unless the opposition is winning by 40 points at 3/4 time, you know the umpires will bring them back into it
  2. I think it's time we put games into players we see as being part of our next flag. Get some momentum going and we look a better team faster.

    Duursma has been a woefull addition to the bombers. What did they trade to get him?

    Umpires definitely giving Coll the benefit of the doubt many times. I've seen 3 or 4 throws and a couple of insufficient attempts not paid to the bombers. Wet weather or not, they should be paid. They usually are to Coll... surprise, surprise
  5. Happy to cut him some slack, but not playing in the seniors. If, as you suggest, fatherhood is affecting his ability to perform for MFC then give him more time at home and let him play for Casey. I'm not convinced that is the reason for his drop in form, he's been below part for a long time now, but I absolutely think he should not be playing seniors based on his current output.
  6. Have to say, I'm [censored] scared as to what's gonna happen once Max retires. I'm hoping young George Gawn will be ready when that occurs
  7. Really pleased with the form of Sparrow, Salem and Bowey. Three guys whom I thought their best was behind them. Loving their improvement this year. A lot of 1%ers and hard running to create pressure.
  8. He's like a two meter feather Doent like contact, gets left behind in marking contests, beaten by a young pup
  9. If, if Trac and/or Oliver leave, please god let it be to Norf, Saints, WCE or Essendon and please supply us with at least one very high draft pick in amongst the cattle trading. If they go to Collingwood or Hawthorn I will spew up!

  11. Boooooo! Booooo! 🤣

    Thanks, I will
  13. Next we need a young ruck to take over from Max, so these guys can get silver service into the next decade

    Innuendo, wink-wink bs that will be proven wrong Please bookmark this so that we can call you out October

    Good god, NO!

    Umpires doing their best to ruin a high standard game
  17. I have noticed that numerous other clubs train during the afternoon, rather than first thing in the morning, which we mostly do. North are often out training at 6pm under lights. For the sports science posters, what's the value/reasoning behind this?

    No thank you. I don't believe we are the sort of club that can turn a player like JUH around in the same way Geelong, Collingwood or some of the northern state clubs can. IMO he's more likely to create trouble rather than become the best player he can with us.
  19. If we lose this week I will continue to be disappointed that we could not win more flags with the outstanding list we have had in the last 5 years

    I'd prefer the end of the year, it's unlikely there's anyone better to take over. But I suspect you may be thereabout right We are imploding very quickly Today was putrid to watch, small crowd too. This will hurt the finances if we continue the form
  21. Clearance count 25 to 11 😡
  22. GCS clearances killing us. Coming out too easily. Same last round vs Norf
  23. 17 points. Should be 7 goals behind. Our kicking is nothing short of putrid. Improve that in the 2nd half and we are a chance
  24. Oliver oil today
