The game is for charity which is what makes it worthwhile but otherwise its a novelty to watch fat blokes running around on a footy field and listening to bad commentary. Basically, it's cringeworthy but for a good cause. -
Jay Clark reports that āformer Melbourne coach Paul Roos has backed Simon Goodwin to earn a certain contract extension in the off-season.ā Simon Goodwin set to sign contract extension after helping break Demonsā finals drought

It seems that the quest for talls is on again in earnest across the board. Ruck merry-go-round set to spin again We need someone to give Max a chop out and the two kids in the VFL are not exactly standing up as yet. Do we keep them (or one) and try elsewhere?

Good to see out cat b boys are already in the mix.

I know we are taking things one game at a time but given that 3 out of our last 4 games are to be played at the MCG (and hopefully a few more after that at the same venue), I think we need to use this game to reassert our influence on our home soil. We did that a bit against the Bullies at our last outing but now it's time to take control of that ground and make it a fortress against any other club that enters.

In Hannan Out Melksham
-
What sort of credibility does the MFC have with reference to these injury lists? Melksham is reported to have strained the hammy during the second quarter of Saturday night's game so they clearly knew when they published this week's list that he was injured ... but didn't report it until today.
-
Is it too much to expect a win to WCE and upsets in the other two games today?
-
Filipovic missed a game and then missed another week for the bye. That's 2 weeks.
-
He probably doesn't fit the criteria because he's now living here but what's involved in drafting an international rookie like the NZ kid we had over here a few years ago?
-
What %age of game time was a Clarry on the ground for yesterday?
-
Welcome to the wonderful world of the AFL. The final nail in the coffin will come if they go lightly on GWS for their role in the Whitfield affair.
-
Of course Melksham was already on the list.
-
Interesting with the ins and outs (including the ones to come), I don't think our list's average age is going to change all that much in the end.

Good point ... and the strange thing about this is that back in January when the CAS verdict was announced the AFL immediately announced (and therefore without a need for a meeting to be held a month later during which time all and sundry could deliberate on issues of fairness, the impact on other clubs, the competition and the game) the rules that would apply to Essendon to enable it to cover for their missing players and even the issue of how their absence would impact on the draft (as far away as November). The rules all gave the club that was responsible for the plight of the guilty players an advantage while the other innocent clubs that now also had guilty players on their books no rights in regard to replacing those players. This is yet another example of the embarrassing way in which the AFL competition is being run these days.

The only game we're setting ourselves up for is Round 1 v GWS, nothing else.

Even if there are no big fish available, that doesn't mean that you go after minnows.Virtually all of the players you mention from other clubs are struggling to get games with their current clubs or have been delisted which puts them in the same category as the NQR's who we've just delisted. Your proposal is like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
