Nothing much except to echo this question! We seem to be off to a good pre-start and the team seems more cohesive than last year. Would love to hear any analysis which confirms or denies this gut feel

This threads a cracking read - can't wait to watch the game this afternoon finally! Thanks all for your comments God I'm so excited for the season ❤💙

Maybe one the trackwatchers should take bio oil to the next training for Clarry 😂 Poor thing

One of the ugliest aspects of football is the players who deliberately injure others! I alternate between disgust and fury, and sadness for our boys on this front Glad it's not really seen in AFLW and hope it never is!

This was discussed on another thread. Fritsch's foot was stomped on by accident in training a few weeks back. They're managing it conservatively and letting him heal (which is going well apparently). It's not on the website because this is the kind of injury that teams will exploit / target Fritsch for

By now we'd all guessed as much that something was wrong with Max, but that sounds really quite harsh. Not that there was much choice around finals. Glad we're treating Max and his aging body more carefully this year

Let it be known that on this same night, I also wished and hoped for Kozzie to stay.

Sad about JJ bring so far down the picking order. Bit surprised to see Laurie up (but happy for Laurie to have an opportunity)

Honestly I prefer to be sober and stuck in tortured brain loops too, especially if engaging in convos on demonland. Probably helps that ordinarily I'm not in a sports bar! The next day was quite hellish

For anyone without Spotify, trying to limit Kane/King exposure and wondering at what point Richo starts, it is at 1 hr 30 min mark.

For me too. Emotionally it lingers, even if I can't actually remember much thanks to a few hasty glasses of whisky in the sports bar. Although my memory of the game is gone, I remember sobbing as one of two Dees supporters, silhouetted against a tv screen as large as a wall and surrounded by a sea of agnostic NRL fans 😭 Tres dramatique!

Or peel and freeze them, and then blitz them in the food processor for banana ice cream!

So excited for the podcast! Thanks for the new ep. I always listen once clear and then another time while working (don't tell the bossman)

Agreed... and then they admitted they hadn't seen much of our preseason! At least do some research to give yourself half a chance of saying something interesting

At the end when they say the last quarter was the highest scoring in MFC history, I wonder if our scoring in the last quarter of the GF beat that record!

I believe he took the GWS role because there was more chance of consistent game time, since MFC had quite a few good small forwards ahead of him.

That's your problem - you're trying to make sense where there is none!

Glad she's at least commentating in some capacity but sad it's only Thursdays. Could get rid of half of all the footy commentators and replace just with Daisy, and it would be an improvement!

Some might say that Langers quietly rules the roost at MFC, so that's fitting he also rules your roost (in more ways than one), WCW!

As somebody who is relatively uninterested in drugs, I've certainly been offered drugs in many situations through no interest or actions of my own. Often in fancy office buildings or bars. I look like a nerd, so I don't think my general appearance invites the offer either! Then again... I am a lawyer, so maybe there is some truth to the stereotype. Regardless, it certainly seems easy to access in the large east coast cities

I'm too emotionally fragile on Mondays to read such a passionate plea against the likelihood of Kozzy leaving 😭😂

Now an ex friend?

On the topic of photos, the replacement for Gibby is an English boy named Alex. Apparently he's been in Melbourne for 5 years and became a mad Demons fan! If you've been to training at Gosch's, he's got long locks to rival BBB and Langdon (pre egg mode). He's doing photos and social media support

Good on you! But oooft those poor kids! Behaving like that at a football game, it makes you worry how he might behave at home...

Glad your story had a happy end to it, @WalkingCivilWar! How odious of the Hawthorn supporter though...
