TRAINING: Friday 17th February 2023
Jake Lever was in the same boat. No coincidence he never really got into it last year either.

From the vault
There was a period there where I was convinced, and stats sort of backed me up, that we were undefeated with "Pedo" playing, and batted about 30% with him out of the side. Absolute cult hero figure in my own brain.

Garry Lyon fails to call out Antisemitism
Racism is bad I agree.

Ben Gibson departs Melbourne Football Club
Yeah he was a ginormous step up from Burgo for us Dees content nuts and really helped bring a unique flavour to the MFC social media presence/footprint. Most Dees fans don't watch that stuff and won't care though, so the impact will be minimal. Bye Ben, from those of us tragic enough to know who you are - you'll be missed!

Clarry With The Orange Manbun
My god, do you know what this means? He has achieved his final form!!!

AFLW: QF vs Adelaide
Above everything else, that was an incredibly physical match, up there with any men's game I've ever seen. Womens' footy between two good sides is now at the point that it is legitimately exciting in its own right as a spectacle and a great representation of what Australian football is all about.

We cannot draft again from WA
Happy to keep winning flags with WA talent then send them back to "that other country".

AFLW: Rd 07 vs Western Bulldogs
Is Harris the best ruck in the comp? I think so - some of the things she does in the ruck remind me a lot of Luke Jackson's follow up work. And she'd probably beat him in a one-on-one in the forward line. What a string to add to her bow.

Farewell Jayden Hunt
This triggered the most "good luck to you mate" spew I've ever done.

2022 Brownlow Medal
OK folks I'm out. This is just far too slow to keep going on with. DM me if Trac or Clarry get on a roll.

2022 Brownlow Medal
Aiming to be the longest broadcast of the year in spite of The Queen's funeral emerging as a late challenger.

Both Brayshaw boys are like…why are you interviewing US???

2022 Brownlow Medal
Petracca is no chance right? His second half of the year not good enough...

2022 Brownlow Medal
Clarry getting completely ghosted by the umps…🙃

2022 Brownlow Medal
The older I get the more I just want this award to be some nameless official walking out with a slip of paper and announcing the winner, before walking off and putting the medal in the post.

2022 Brownlow Medal
Umps don't see him. You need to have a TV camera zoomed in on him to catch his brilliance.

2022 Brownlow Medal
Dees were pretty good in the early rounds of this year…forgot about that. Wonder if we'll see that again when it counts next year.

AFLW: Rd 04 vs Brisbane
You feel the lions might just pinch this. Zanker and Bannen unsighted (Zanker since the 1st and Bannen all year).

CASEY: Grand Final vs Southport
Great work lads. Imagine, if the AFL side had turned up this finals series we'd be a very strong chance to take out all 3 comps this year. Oh well…

CASEY: Grand Final vs Southport
Pathetic from the Southport lot. How about show some hardness in the contest and maybe you wouldn't be losing the granny fellas.

Farewell Luke Jackson
We'll always have that magical 10 minute period in the 3rd quarter of the grand final but let's get a couple of great picks for him and use them to bolster our 16-22 player zone that consistently has let us down this year.

Queen’s passing
I'm not going to begrudge the Irish from hating the English monarch.
