GAME DAY - Scratch Match vs Collingwood
I think I’ve been watching too much AFLW. The standard is marginally better.

AFLW: Rd 3 vs Brisbane
Another conspiracy theory would be the desire on the part of the AFL to ensure the participation of the traditionally powerful clubs in Carlton and Collingwood in the finals series. The Blues are on top and the Pies have been well beaten but could still make it if they start winning some games in their weak comp. Surely, the organisers could have foreseen that the stronger sides were in one group?

Farewell Jesse Hogan
The freehold land on which the Daily Planet is located was sold last year. I have a feeling that the award winning brothel is soon going to go the way of the Gatwick.

No, never been to Oktoberfest before. Elwood is very pleasant these days, especially since the beach is so handy to home and best from this time of day till sunset.

So according to his manager, it wasn’t cocaine (snort, snort ?). Hope Port Adelaide believes that and allows him to play against us in round 1.

Injury List - Season 2019
Terrible thing to happen to Mitchell but I wouldn’t say that a key injury to such a major player for a rival team for a finals spot is “not MFC related”. Let’s hope that we don’t suffer a similar setback to one of our players.

Who’s left?
That’s what I thought until one of the female comperes mentioned at the end that they would be back tomorrow at noon. I suggest you check your local guides.

Phantom Drafts - 2018
I think it’s worth noting that after the finals and before the trades, our highest draft selection was in the latter part of the second round which would, after compensation picks, priority selection, father/son and academy bids have made our first pick around #40. It’s now looking as though, with our bid for Toby Bedford, we will pick up three players within that range and while I don’t agree with Snoop Dog’s picks, there is enough quality available to suggest we are going to improve our list on Friday.

THE 2018 AFL NATIONAL DRAFT
Well ... it’s now less than a week away. The experts at aflnation.com.au (Callum Twomey and Kevin Sheehan) are predicting this outcome for the first round. 1. Sam Walsh (Carlton) 2. Jack Lukosius (GC) 3. Izak Rankine (GC) 4. Max King (STK) 5. Ben King (PA) 6. Connor Rozee (GC) 7. Nick Blakey (SYD) bid 8. Bailey Smith (WB) 9. Jackson Hately (ADE) 10. Jye Caldwell (GWS) 11. Jordan Clark (PA) 12. Isaac Quaynor (COLL) bid 13. Zak Butters (GWS) 14. Chayce Jones (GEEL) 15. Tarryn Thomas (NM) bid 16. Riley Collier-Dawkins (ADE) 17. Ian Hill (FRE) 18. Xavier Duursma (PA) 19. Luke Valente (ADE) 20. Liam Stocker (RIC) 21. Curtis Taylor (BL) 22. Sam Sturt (GWS) 23. Rhylee West (WB) bid 24. Tom Joyce (WCE) That leaves Melbourne with the third pick on the second day - next Friday.

Bailey Smith
Sounds very Tom Scullylike so my hope is that GWS Giants draft him and they pick Shane Mumford as his mentor.

Jordan Clark
Someone puts him in the top 10. I don’t mind that because there are now about 20 to 25 players in this draft who have been picked by some pundit as a likely top 10. Tomorrow's Heroes: Ex-cricketer ready to bowl over clubs

THE KID - A TRIBUTE TO COLIN SYLVIA
The comment addresses the club being accused of tanking. It doesn't say that the club actually did tank and that's still an open subject.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Oh, ok then. Close thread.

Bailey Williams
He’s not that funny, surely?

Bailey Williams
I like the cut of his jib.

Tom Sheridan
With seven vacancies on Melbourne’s main list at this point in time, I think the club must surely be thinking in terms of selecting one or two delisted free agents. Is Tom Sheridan worth looking at? Delisted Freo onballer hopes for a lifeline

PICKS # 26 & 31 (formerly # 23 & 28)
Problem being that Buku Khamis is a NGA tied to the Western Bulldogs who are likely to match any bid from 3rd Round plus which is probably where he’ll go. Bailey Williams, on the other hand, would be worth looking at with Pick 23 or 28.

Recruiting a 3rd tall forward to find another 50 goals?
We now have a couple of picks in the 20s, of which one selection might be used on Noah Gown.
