Carlton to get on the 'selfless' bandwagon
And totally unoriginal, using exactly the same language that Goody and the players used

Carlton to get on the 'selfless' bandwagon
Sounds like they've just realised the days of 'We're Carlton and you're not' won't cut it anymore https://www.sen.com.au/news/2021/09/29/silvagni-reveals-carltons-biggest-flaw/

POSTGAME: Practice Match vs Bulldogs
Absolutely owned by the dogs and the score didn't reflect their total dominance Bit of a whack from the Bont in the postgame interview describing the win and their ability to keep the ball out of the Melbourne forward line "It was a bit of tick but you know you're going to come up against really strong teams during the course of the year"

Kozzy Rd 11 Rising Star Nomination
Not only can he do the flash stuff and makes great decisions with ball in hand but works incredibly hard defensively and some of his best moments were the result of that Hopefully he takes Harley Bennell under his wing

NON MFC: Round 09
Was very frustrating last night watching Nik Nak dominate the taps the way Gawny does but it actually being an advantage to them

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
Absolutely wrapped! Not only off the dial skills and leg speed but more than a touch of Jack Viney/Joel Selwood about him when he's in the trenches

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
I hope so. He's a very smart player I didn't mean to bag Spargo. Just they're both midgets but Pickett's tools are unbelievable in comparison with his pace, leap and tackling. Potentially Cyril Rioli-esqe

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
I hope so, he's an unbelievable talent. If Spargo was worth pick 20 something I'd have Pickett top 5 easily

An absolute beauty

Jack Martin
That makes sense. Playing with your mate Eddie Betts doesn't seem like a strong enough reason to completely dispel talking to another club Wonder if MFC knows this too and is the reason they said if he's not interested neither are we? May and KK would have been the first people they spoke to

2019 Player Reviews: #9 Charlie Spargo
Hopefully Spargo too can become the completely dual sided kicker and best handballer in the comp Mitchell was. Here's hoping...

2019 Player Reviews: #24 Jay Kennedy-Harris
I feel for JKH and always had a soft spot for him. Only being 173cm with no pace or amazing side step he's always going to be well down any pecking order but he worked extremely hard and had ambition with ball in hand. Pity his goal kicking at senior level went to [censored] the last couple of seasons cause that could have saved him

Brendan McCartney on SEN
The most interesting thing he said was referring to younger players who will initially do anything for the team then sometimes stray from that ethos at the next stage of development. That's exactly what we saw this year

Farewell Sam Frost
Relax I`m sure the Oscar McDonald contract extension negotiations are well underway and Josh Wagner is locked up

Premiers soon
Apparently what impressed Roosy about Goody when looking for his successor was he spoke more about club culture than game plans

Premiers soon
Probably add 'but great character' to slow and unskilled

The AFL wants to reduce tackling
I watched the 1989 grand final recently, one of the 'great' grand finals and the almost complete lack of tackling that day annoyed the bejesus out of me. Watching players with the ball waltz past opponents as though they were witches hats I started saying to myself, FFS tackle him!

POSTGAME: Rd17 vs Bulldogs
It was close but the Doggies hunt just seemed that bit better than ours, we were rarely breathing down their necks they way they were with us. Kinda story of the year. Great to see Petty do so well forward, he's such a natural footballer

Round 17 Non MFC Games
Was really impressed by the way The Pies ground their way back into the game last night. They did exactly what we can't manage, they were dominated then just stopped the opposition, nothing pretty and the rest came from there. Our defensive workrate has been seriously wanting much of this year
-
POSTMATCH: Rd 15 vs Brisbane
As the game wore on, all I wanted to see was our mids put Brisbane's under pressure. I didn't care if it degenerated into total ugly and forget talk of our forward line, the ease with which they constantly exited congestion was where we lost the game. Do our much vaunted midfield think the defensive stuff is below them?

POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Collingwood
The same way we've been beat the last xxx years, smashed on the outside. Collingwood's defensive pressure was outstanding and we didn't match there, particularly on the spread
