NON-MFC: Round 5, 2022
I just assumed they had crossed to him in his old folks home in Del Boca Brisvegas for a first hand account of the invention of the goals/minutes theorem…?

Kruger looks like a good, albeit raw, young player for the Magpies.

Nasher you were right. I gave this battle up mid-late last year, but tonight it's official Petty > Tomlinson

I'll never begrudge Jeremy Howe from leaving to play for his childhood club. Plus he was just a speccie machine for us anyway.

Cripps has done his hammy. Sad for him, but very not sad for the Blues.

HUDDO (referring to a last-second goal by the bombers): "That was just what the Essendon doctor ordered." That phrase means something different to most of us than it seems to mean to Huddo.

POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Port Adelaide
Not a Petty fan I take it? He's a walkup start once matchfit.

I wondered if he was our there, but then I do that most weeks.

NON-MFC: Round 4, 2022
Has anyone seen/heard the stats (if any) around the effectiveness of staying outside 5 (dogs do this) vs standing the mark (Melbourne and most others do this? e.g., metres gained/scores in the passage of play, etc...?

Want to unmute the telly so I can listen to Nath Jones, but that means I'll have to listen to Luke Darcy too…shudder.

Naitanui had Dean Cox early in his career too...

Jeezus Naitanui is unfit. Not to make everything about the Dees, but I hope Jackson doesn't get on the same paddock, because NicNat was a lithe athletic freak at Jackson's age too.

Met a West Coast supporter (dressed in the polo) in my building today who held the elevator to my great surprise: first nice West Coast supporter I've ever met, so I'm going for them…tonight. Will never forget 2018 though, and told him as much.

Jokes aside though, I really hope for Noble's sake they crack in today and get close to an upset.

AFLW GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Adelaide
For those questioning whether Melbourne's (mens) side is the best AFL side in the league this year, we are - and that's because our defense is miles better than anyone else's. This game is a preview of what will happen to whichever sorry team is put up against the boys in 5 months time.

AFLW GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Adelaide
Congratulations to the Crows. Clearly the best side on the day, and deserved premiers. I think Melbourne needs to adjust its gameplan to play a little more like how we did in the 2nd half, because as long as we play that slower methodical game we'll never beat the Crows when it matters.
