Huge game coming Gents. Can we have a good pump up from Andy? Or is the MFCSS taking over? Starting to feel a bit nervous about Thursday night.

@WalkingCivilWar thoughts on the above?

The Alice Spring game was the worst. Predicted score had us wining by 5 goals that day.

Doesn't seem something we would like then; it's the start of Lynch's end of career. I would assume the team would rather go for a 25 year old ,still developing but solid KPF.

My workplace is dominated by Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️. Just one more guy I know that goes for Melbourne.

Heard a wild trade rumour, Lynch to request a trade to Melbourne. From SEN on Thursday. Would we really entertain that? How old is Lynch? Is it even possible?

Yes, the weather forecast is getting worse as we approach the day of the game.

MSG?

I too hate crowded markets, I like all the space and quiet to decide what groceries I fancy for the week.

I think a nail biting loss would be a better punishment for that mob, specially since they all believe in the BS mantra of 'the comeback kings'. Kick after the siren from Petraca that touches the post but is not reviewed 🤣🤣🤣

I am not inferring Grundy is the be all end all. Just more of general thought on the way the club will transition in the post Max Gawn era, unfortunately the skipper is not eternal.

My main concern is if he sustains one more knee injury (touch wood). At his age it could be hard to come back from that.

It's going to be very interesting how the club manages the transition period of Gawn going into retirement. I believe he's got two mere years in his contract? Hard for me to see anything but an additional year for him. We are still in a good position to try and develop a young ruckman. But time is running out. Grundy was a good back up plan, but he is not willing to remain under Max's shadow.

I think the analogy re the exotic car is not accurate for them, Lambos have class. It would be more fitting to say they are like a Ford UTE (the ones with the V8 engines), made for speed too.

You may be able to trust the forecast on Thursday morning, and that's still a 50-50 proposition.

I had a look myself yesterday, they are very confident and cocky. Can't wait to smash them next Thursday!

They know they have no chance to beat the Lions at the Gabba 😁

What will be the key contracts to extend next year? Bowey, Lever, Langdon and Sparrow. Must keep all of them I think. Is there a chance Ben Brown retires this year? And what would that mean for our list and cap space?

He would be playing today for Casey if that was the case.

Well the MCC is a different kettle of fish, they own the place so the AFL is just a guest. I guess it is just a niche thing here in Australia. I don't recall any similar arrangements for seat allocation in other professional sports (e.g. NFL, La Liga, EPL).

Our future home?

AFL 23 hasn't been released for Xbox! It's been 6 months now. Kudos on being a gamer, and a Xbox one.

A bag of chips, they didn't have enough for JHF last year. So whatever is left are scraps.

Probably it was when those Port players were down here for the AFL Awards night.

Didn't Charlie Cameron kick 6 against them?
