WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
He was on virtually minimum wage - surely, he doesn’t take a massive wage cut?

Countdown to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics
Now that it appears the Olympics are likely to be postponed for 12 months, I’m more confident that we’ll win next year’s flag.

TEAMS: Rd 01 vs West Coast
I suspect that because there is no VFL until further notice, clubs will be inclined to make more changes to their teams from week to week to ensure that they have many players capable of performing at the highest level. It will also keep players on their toes and fully committed. Bottom line is that the teams with player depth are the most likely to succeed.

NON MFC: Round 01
I suspect that the Bulldogs of 2020 are going the way of last year’s Demons - from highly rated to big fails. They’re lucky that the season probably will last about three rounds at best.

Like this bloke’s name for some reason. Shoulder ripped from socket, 'but I got him': No.1 pick fancy

Coronavirus & Other Sports
I recommend that the AFL suspends the first two rounds. Of course, it’s a co-incidence that we’re drawn to play two of the premiership favourites in those rounds.

Training 2020
Everything removed to Casey Fields where the municipal council has been overthrown and martial law declared. Apparently, players safer from coronavirus and invasion by foreign forces there.
