2025 MFC Injury List
Thanks, Dub. Very reassuring. Now can I come to you any and every time Iām freaking out about something? š For starters, I broke a fingernail this morning. Itās a blue one (half are blue, the other half redā¦ yes, Iām a nuffie), please tell me everything will be ok. Lie to me if you have to! š PS I lied. Six nails are blue, four are red coz more blue than red. PPS footy canāt start soon enough š

Why would anyone feel silly? In the absence of a reason people are gonna talk about possible reasons. Itās called being a human.

I dunno, I reckon youād be pushing to find a bigger Port nuffie than Cornes.

100% we can. Fans are the only ones hanging onto the negatives, and fair enough, too. But as far as the club, players and coaches go, itās dead and buried. Ok so the same stirrings might occur at the end of this season but thatās not gonna change the current mood, aspirations, belief, hunger, whatever else, of this season.

Melbourneās new bond
Last season we didnāt get the chance to be excited even before round one. Playing Sydney in Sydney was a terrible way to start the season. I wasnāt surprised we lost. Not to mention having to fork out for flights and accommodation, and our cheer squad had to sit in the corner pocket because Sydney members sit behind the away goals. Plus the majority of Dees supporters couldnāt attend. And it made me so angry that the AFL scheduled it this way to hype up the Grundy vs Gawn thing. A loss in the first game played is huge. Thank goodness weāre not part of the ridiculous Opening Round this year.

Dangerfield Wants Shorter Quarters
I understand your reasoning but footy every day of the week would suck. I think we need at least four footy-free days between rounds because in that time you can process the round thatās just finished and preview the next round.

Jeez how good is Harvey Langford looking!
Yes, but thereās change afoot. I recently met our new media guy, Matt. Heās aware of the importance of connecting with fans via the socials and itās already showing.

Dangerfield Wants Shorter Quarters
Iām glad Iām not the only one who thought this was silly. Heās not the brightest, is he. He usually only rears his greedy head when playersā pay is in question so Iām surprised heās brought up an issue other than that. And donāt get me started on his grammar and punctuation; his first tweet contains only 21 words, yet thereās no less than five errors. Iām too scared to read his follow-up tweet š Replacing him as the AFLPA head is long overdue.

2024 Player Reviews: #23 Shane McAdam
Not a review of Shano, but giving credit where itās dueā¦ Thereās a group of regular track-watchers who meet up at Goschās where we watch from our usual spot at the boundary fence. Yesterday, without warning, one of our group fainted. (Incidentally, If youāre gonna faint in public thereās not many better places than at training: Jacob, the Club doctor, was absolutely wonderful.) Anyways, just after it happened Shane ran to the boundary. He asked me about it and he was genuinely concerned. He said he hopes sheās ok and that itās lucky Jacob was there. Then about half an hour later he came over again to get an update and was pleased to hear she was gonna be fine. This isnāt a testament to his footy prowess but it certainly is to his character.

For mine, whatās as telling as the things you mention above is the fact that Luker wasnāt in the 2025 official team photo which was taken yesterday. He was the only one absent. Itās undeniable that thatās huge. IN MY HUMBLE FLIPPINā OPINION.

Iāll see your last two minutes of Blues vs Saints and raise you the last two minutes of Blues vs Deesā¦ Round 22, 2022 Nothing to do with Harves but does that matter? Itās a thing of beauty and we donāt need a reason to watch it ā¤ļøš

Gussy was the resident creator of nicknames. Yet another of the many ways in which we miss him š„

Jeez how good is Harvey Langford looking!
i sincerely hope not. He deserves his own nickname, not one thatās based on a comparison to another player. Besides, heāll be a 10x better player than Reid. š

I donāt disagree. I was having a little dig at Demonland which is something thatās done very often, and with no malice.

Jeez how good is Harvey Langford looking!
Unfortunately, not gonna happen. It seems once a nickname is bestowed, itās set in stone. Harves will just have to suffice.

PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 29th January 2025
Any of the above could happen and your guess is as good as mine or anyone elseās. Iām just happy that Luker isnāt a high profile player because the media would go to town on this and we all know how that usually pans out š In either of your suggested scenarios, he needs support and care and youād like to think heās receiving this.
