I thought that last week was going to be a close game and came out looking like a goose, so i wont be making any bold predictions this week. Dees by only 80 points.

This team is the Black Caviar of AFL. We do just enough to get the W without spending all our tickets. That can wait until September.

This aged well.......................

Not sure why they are so pessimistic. I give them a reasonable chance of claiming the upset. We deserve to start favorites but i cant see it being a blowout. They are actually a decent side that is out of form early.

Back to having a bye round....Yuk

My cat is a paid up member. She even got a MFC branded food bowl.

Weideman is not going to make it. Just doesnt have enough mongerel in him to mix it with the big dogs. This contract should be his last.

47 point win with everyone talking about how we would have won by 80 if not for the repeated 50's gifted to GCS by the maggots.

OK so mine has only just begun. Hung the first premiership poster in my new Thailand house today. The sofa will be directly in front of this poster facing the TV on the opposite wall. I plan to have a MFC gurnsey framed and hung on the blank wall to the left of this pic on my next trip to Thailand. Other items will be added to the room to make it a full-on MFC shrine. My wife doent like Aussie Rules at all but she was informed before we built the house that the TV room was going to be devoted to the mighty MFC. The main lounge has her TV so we dont need to argue. The rest of the house was also hers to decorate. And a fine job she (Angkana is her name) did. My TV room (future shrine) is the room at the front right of the house. Show us your overseas decorations honoring the mighty MFC.

Prepare for what some in the media will label his "Grovelling apology" in the next day or 2. Nothing surer.

Fantastic first up win. Dogs wanted to win badly.... Umps wanted Dogs to win badly.. (only half joking) Bailey Smith Frees for = 5 Frees against = 1 Clayton Oliver frees for = 0 Frees against = 7. 7 !!!???? 3 of our first-string backs out and lost another (who is also our best kick out of the backline) early. Didnt just hang on but made it into a solid win in the end. I didnt see or hear a second of the game so this is one replay i look forward to. Guess we are on top of the ladder again ? Take that any day of the week.

And the 3 votes

Does anyone know where i can stream a free call of the match from overseas? Thanks for any help.

Im gutted.Read the news last night before bed and couldnt sleep for ages. Im only 18 months or so older than him but have already had a heart attack (more than 10 yeras ago) which i was fortunate enough to live through. Not about me though, im sorta just saying that things like these remind you how fragile life is. I loved that he never wasted a moment of his life worrying about being P.C. He was himself from day 1 until the end. Still cant believe it. Rest in peace Legend.

Small man syndrome will be off the charts this year with the new dissent rule. The whole AFL world will rebel if they get more games like this one. 8 x 50's in 3/4 is just ridiculous.

First time ever i have been happy that nobody bother to post scores in Game-Day threads. Sounds like the umps are loving their new 50 m penalty power too.

Any online radio coverage of the game today? Thanks for any help. I'm in Thailand and can't stream KAYO.

I get that you like Smith... hell, so do i. Personally think he is under-rated by most on DL.... But you cannot possibly know that "...he would have thrashed Daniher." I could just as easily state with the same conviction that Danners would have given him a bath. Neither of us will ever know.

Whats everyones thoughts on Chandlers game? I rate the kid but obviously didnt get to see how he played today. Any thoughts?

Goalkickers anyone? Please. Im in Thailand so my only coverage is this thread

Ox or Neita at their best would have added heaps to our current side. After a flip of a coin i choose The Ox but it could have been either.

Wanted so much to click the "vomit" button for this post but that would have been unfair to LDVC. Clicked like, but i really didnt.

Our depth is now one of our biggest assets imho. One or 2 outs wont hurt us nearly as badly as it used to. (with a couple of very obvious exceptions in the guts ofc) Im loving the lack of expectation our supporters are placing on the newer kids. Develop them properly and we could be at the pointy end for years. GO DEES!
