    Reiwoldt mouthing off to the umpires after the siren? Well I never. Flags don’t win you class. 

    "You [censored] lost that for us" 

    Classy.

    This from the guy who climbed down from his high horse to tell Kossi off for pointing at the scoreboard  ?

    Sorry,  getting in early here.

    Some tasty and meaningful matches for neutral Melbourne supporter this weekend.

    Im actually quite worried about the Cats, as we obviously played them without Cameron, so my preference is for a Port win.

    I’d also rather West Coast to miraculously win against Richmond whilst being injury depleted. 
     

    Im not sure which permeate room suits us better in throes matches? 

     

    I find this page very handy for such musings....

    In at least one of my comments I said till at least until I have had my second jab which is scheduled for early August. Yes I meant We in the collective sense. I have to say I do not like watch football on TV it runs a very bad second to being at a game.

    I am hopeful of getting in an August game at the G and hopefully an early finals game. 
    However it depends on the virus remaining under control. Victoria seems incapable of stopping transmission from Quarantine so what I might wanted to do may never happen. 
    So let’s beat the pies in their GF on Monday and see from there. 
    Go Dees.

    Gee, that's a long wait.  I'm not familiar with your location OD, but assume that is the reason?

    I had my first jab on Sunday (as a walk up) and can go back for my second in 3 weeks.

    I clicked on it thinking that there may be something official like Cerra meets with Melbourne officials or something and all I get is 'should we get Cerra?' wtf.

    I know right? What an outrage

    I hate how we start a thread on every single player that would be good at the dees.

    Yeah, it sure is inconvenient to not click on a thread and having to scroll another 0.5cm to the next one.

    Some interesting stats.

    Dogs had seven players with more than 25 disposals.

    We had one...Oliver.

     

    [snipped the rest]

    They certainly had plenty of ball, but they key difference to their previous games is that they only had it where we wanted them to have it.

    We controlled them beautifully and completely took the the middle of the ground away forcing them wide or into chips around the back half as they tried to find a way through.

    Macrae had 36 touches and its probably one of the most ineffectual and least damaging 35+ games I've seen from him.

    Umpiring was appalling. 

    22 is dead set the worst in the comp. 

    As for Razor, he either needs to start throwing it up or stop attending the centre bounces altogether.

    He barely managed to bounce it higher than his knackers all night.

    Ordinary footballer at best. Never going to hurt you. A great example of why stats are sometimes meaningless

     

    Seriously?

    Libba is one of the best in the business at clearances. He gets the ball out of the pack and feeds guys like Macrae & the Bont. Stop him and you stop the clean supply to them. Stop the clean supply to them and you limit the influence of their two biggest weapons.

    Sit back and watch the Bulldogs future opponents follow our lead and do the same thing.

    I'm considering switching from MFC membership to AFL membership.

    Does anyone know how I'd go about doing this without paying for both memberships at the same time? 

    Is there a way to transition from one to another, or are they treated as two separate entities and I'd stop one and start another at end of season?

    If I switched, and (obviously!) elected for the MFC to be my club of support, do I still get the MFC membership pack, and would I still retain my consecutive years count?
