In: Oliver, Grundy Out: Petty, Harmes If one thing showed anything, it was that we really needed to have that second ruck with a side that has two rucks. Rooey did his best, but he's not experienced enough yet. We really could have done with Grundy yesterday.

There was a row of Tigers bogans next to the Demon Army that was ejected for just being general lowlives. Yelling insults to Ryan (the head of the cheersquad with the white hair and overall legend), offensive behaviour to a woman in the row in front of them, swearing, general obnoxious behaviour. Quite a few of them refused to go when security asked them to, and one of them was swearing profusely at a guard. One had a smeer on his face that would rival Billy Idol. The supporters are fun to watch when they lose...... Last year in the same bay, at the ANZAC Eve match, I had one rabid support yell in my face that we were all cheats, as she left the game 10 minutes early. They're seriously worse than Collingwood with the saltiness.

Exactly, we've lacked it to a certain extent since TMac got injured. I believe it's a key aspect as to why our forward line hasn't been firing as well. Drop Brown, fine, but then bring in that leadership. Grundy is experienced enough to do that.

The thing is, we need leadership in the forward line. Brown was providing that. Petty is still young, and hasn't played enough in the forward to provide leadership.

Considering Brown has been omitted, I'd say Grundy is in

He wanted Kozzie Pickett, too. Look how well that worked for him.

If Damian Barrett had a brain Then The Tinman would be lonely

How about we don't give Barrett any more oxygen on this forum, because every time I see his diatribe I get viscerally angry.

That's the point people in the media are blindly ignoring. If (and it's a big if) Grundy wants a trade, Melbourne would have to agree to it, and I don't see that happening.

You've got a point. I've put forward what I would select though. Spargo last few games has been a bit off the boil, whereas Melksham has been on fire last couple of games. I can't speak for Goodie, though, as I'm not him!

I'm just sick of the media hacks saying things like "out of favour" and "sure to seek a trade" like they'd know anything. Stick to your own lane, Lloyd, you know jack [censored] about a club you know nothing about, and all you're trying to do is keep up with fellow media hacks in trying to be relevant.

My finals side (pending fitness) would be: Back. Bowey. May. McVee Half back. Rivers. Lever Salem Centre. Hunter. Oliver. Langdon Half forward. Petracca Grundy. Pickett Forward. Van Rooyen Fritsch. Neal Bullen Followers. Gawn. Brayshaw. Viney Interchange: Petty Sparrow. Hibbert. McDonald. Sub. Melksham Emergency from: Smith. Woewodin. Harmes. Spargo. Jordan. Chandler. Brown. Tomlinson I'm not convinced TMac will be fit, if he's not, then Brown would be my in. Interesting problem to have, a fit list with so many that could be counted as best 22. I feel bad for the ones not in......

Seriously, wtf would Matthew Lloyd know?

This is my go to default position when I think of what a typical Tigers fan is like. Pure, unadulterated boganism.

I grew up saying poos and wees, due to all my mum's side of the family being Hawks supporters. The 80s were hell for me football wise

Someone has series issues. Inferiority complex perhaps?

To your credit, none of those are misogynistic

I don't want to lose him....:(

Tayla Harris is very handy in the ruck, she proved that last season when Lozza missed a couple of games.

That's the worse thing about close games at the tail end of the season, watching the percentage decrease....!

Aw, you should have said hi! Thanks for coming to support us, and most importantly the MFC Past Players and Officials Association who we were raising money for :)

Yes!! This made my day!!

Twitter is absolutely awash with how Melbourne cheated and the umpires are biased towards us. Obviously they missed the "touched" goal that wasn't touched, or the deliberate out of bounds paid against Melbourne that was done by the Crows.

Can we revisit the day Don Pyke said nothing to the Crows in Alice Springs? Coz that was funny. https://www.afl.com.au/news/141037/pykes-silent-treatment-was-no-surprise

Good on Goodwin slamming the trade rumours, and confirming Grundy is staying. Why the club couldn't do it yesterday I don't know, but they have now, and hopefully that's the end of the matter
