  1. Everyone should read Supermercado's review. It's long, but it's good.
  2. Mitch Clark is an amazing mark and kick of the footy. Why is he not at Melbourne still? It's an absolute travesty.
  3. It was a real MFC special, wasn't it?
  4. If Mitch Clark makes a successful comeback from injury and whatever mental health issues he has (clearly he's a nutbag of the highest order even if he isn't depressed), it will be a fantastic story for everyone except Melbourne. We're the only loser here (though I can remember a nice goal that was kicked on the weekend that wouldn't have been kicked had things not gone down the way they have).
  5. I'm glad to see Melbourne's faith in Newton has finally paid dividends. I know we all thought after that Mark of the Year that it would all click for him, but it's been a while. Now we're all seeing the results we thought we would. What? Wrong Newton? Oh...
  6. I got one when I asked for free candy. The owner wasn't impressed, so he kicked me.
  7. Adelaide currently 69ing North. Pretty nice to watch.
  8. This North Melbourne performance is delicious. By the way, for the first time in years I've entered a tipping comp. I don't like it. It stops me from enjoying games where the team I've tipped isn't winning.
  9. Garland's 2013 was amazing. Too bad football watchers only remember what happened last year (if that).
  10. I'm studying finally this year after many years of doing nothing because I lacked the commitment. Every time I do well on a test or make some little achievement, I try to remind myself that I haven't accomplished anything yet. I could quit tomorrow and be right back where I started. I feel like our club is in the same position. We need to keep reminding ourselves that we really haven't accomplished anything. If I treat the next day as the only thing that matters, eventually I may get somewhere. The Melbourne Football Club needs to do the same thing.
  11. I think he's got a great basketball brain. That can sometimes be his downfall, but there's still a lot of overlap with footy so every now and then he does some great things.
  12. And yet it's just about the most politically incorrect thing in the world to say white people are smarter than black people. Here's an idea: what if both opinions are equally idiotic? Let's just focus on footy and leave that kind of discussion to someone else.
  13. And for me. i thought they'd go alright this year. On this performance they have absolutely nothing going on.
  14. One round one win every 10 years is a little too long between drinks, but its better than 0. Go Dees!!!
  15. Jeff Garlett is like watching a young Aaron Davey come again. Good times.
  16. I love that H.L shepherd on the mark. I loved it when he was at Collingwood, and I love it a million times more for the red and blue.
  17. I thought Garland's 2013 was fantastic, His 2014 was terrible though, so it's good to see the Good Garland back again.
  18. One thing I've noticed this game is that our tackling technique is miles better than I can remember it being before. It used to be that only Jones, Jetta and Viney could really tackle with the correct technique. Now I feel like everyone can do it (with a few exceptions of course—it's still a work in progress).
  19. Give him a break. It's Rocket's first game in charge.
  20. Ah yes. Because that just screams "Melbourne." Why don't we add the sun and the moon as well, since I'm afraid a constellation visible only from the southern hemisphere is limiting our reach too much.
  21. Except win the ultimate battle for control of our souls apparently. Oh, and get his team to win football games.
  22. Did you know that frogs have evolved the ability to filter out the croaking noise of every species but their own? I've done the same, but with advertising. If I don't want the product, the advertising doesn't even affect me.
