Complacency
What? Really? I’m staggered a head coach with a top team would actually say that.

CHANGES: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Dunstan should stay, controversial call but is he worse than Viney? Could he be better? I don’t know. Either way I think there’s a place for him in the team. TMac looked slow for Casey today. Unless the Weid just doesn’t come on over the next few weeks, or injuries, I can’t see TMac back for a while.

Who are our rivals?
All very true, a lot can still go wrong. Carlton has just lost Cripps for a month. If a few of our guns go down at the wrong time of year it could be problematic. However, having said that, Richmond 2018 was the only example of past teams you’ve referred to above where there was probably daylight between them and the next best. They just had a horrible night in their preliminary final against Collingwood. There is daylight between us and the next best side (probably Brisbane if they turn it on), then daylight to everyone else. We’ve barely flexed a muscle all season yet despite four wins, so if we are challenged I think we’ll still win most games. Injuries and/or inaccurate kicking in a crucial finals match will be the only things that might stop us this year.

NON-MFC: Round 3, 2022
Same with every Bulldogs game. Been happening for years. Won them a flag 6 years ago. It’s ridiculous.

NON-MFC: Round 2, 2022
Like usual the Bulldogs have 25 players on the field and are still getting beaten

MFC AGM
When I registered for the AGM back in February I also registered a question I wanted answered at the AGM. Interesting that near the end of the AGM they said they answered all questions which weren’t ‘individual questions I.e. about a member’s membership’. Well, they never answered my question. I then posed it again in the chat box on the Zoom call. Ignored. The question was concerning the Board’s decision to essentially ‘advocate’ particular board members in election rather than give everyone an equal footing, particularly as anyone applying is a legitimate Melbourne person. Obviously they didn’t want to go near this one.

Herald Sun AFL 2022 Magazine
Has anyone tried to download this (rather than buy it from the newsagents)? Claims it's $7.95 to buy the digital version, but once try to buy, it slugs you an extra $12.00 for a delivery fee (when it's emailed to you). Anyone else had this problem? Obviously didn't proceed ahead as a result. If anyone has read the magazine, what do they say about us?

What’s Daniel Merritt got to do with this? 😉

Redbacks?
Our media promo just had us in our red back guernsey? Surely we’re not wearing them? I actually like it but wouldn’t see why...

COVID & AFL 2021
That’s what I blindly said after I walked out of the MCG on 2 September 2000 trying to be somewhat positive 😉

GAMEDAY: Rd 21 v West Coast
They’re just reliant on one!

NON MFC: Rd 21 2021
People pointing out that we have dropped to fourth given Port won. Frankly it doesn’t matter where we finish in the top four, the key thing is to go into the finals in form, fresh and no major injuries. We get that, we can win the three finals. In saying that, we will make the top four. We will win at least one of our last three, if not all three. It just depends on what approach we take. Given the Swans result tonight, I wouldn’t be against resting McDonald and Salem now if they have any sort of injury. Would rather freshen them up and have them right for next week and the finals.

NON MFC: Rd 21 2021
If that was the case and we went into the finals off three successive losses, and still made the top four, that wouldn’t be a good thing!
-
NON MFC: Rd 21 2021
4 you mean... 1 win in the H&A and three finals 😂

GAMEDAY: Rd 20 v Gold Coast Part 2
7 frees to 2. Does Nicholls still hate us? Nonetheless solid quarter, not sure why planet people are in saying we’re not on today
