Bates Mate

Him and cox are thugs out there to try hurt blokes and get away with too much.

Yep took me back to 2017,2020 when we used to always win inside 50 and loose

Yep. We lead in clumps into dead pockets and flanks. Collingwood create and lead into space.

No chance. We'll be outnumbered 35/65 I rekon 60/40 at best

Had a quick read. I forgot what a delusional place forum is. There are Adelaide supporters who genuinely think a straight swap for one of Grundy , Petty or Sparrrow is fair .

there's enough to worry about , weather is not one I will waste any time on .

Had no idea who he was. If the list managers/ recruiters want him who am I to argue at this point? They've already been largely responsible for the great ride we've had over the past few years with more to come. I'll back them and their judgement

Only question now is will it be Laurie , Hibbo or Smith sub. I'd say Laurie

I think after a H&A season of the media telling them and they thinking they are 2023 premiers it has finally dawned on them that they actually have to win Tomorrow , are in average form and play against a really tough opponent and that it could all go [censored] up for them.

Presser is up only 8 questions about Grundy today . Nothing of note as per usual Goody. Tmac confirmed the only "scoop" https://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/1424265/qualifying-final-media-conference-simon-goodwin?videoId=1424265&modal=true&type=video

No they are only allowed to ask about Grundy

If you can't get in and find your set in 35 minutes something is wrong. Having said that it will be a bit of a logjam with digital tickets,bag checks and those fake metal detectors can really bog things up sometimes. On second thought get there at 6:30 if you can

And second against Collingwood having debut last year on Queens birthday let's hope it her plays it's a more membrane game for him and the team than that one

And if Sean Darcy didn't go down he'd be playing the same role he was for us. Which if you remember he was doing horribly in the first few rounds and the local media where all over him

Anyone catch Craig McRae on Sen this afternoon on the run home ? It's 32 minutes can't bring myself to listen to it but wouldn't mind a summation https://pca.st/podcast/8038e720-b075-0133-2e49-6dc413d6d41d

Howe is still bitter that Roos and the MFC didn't rate him as highly as he rated himself with good reason. The season he had before he left is was very average

That's an impressive stat line at any level. Playing in the best underage comp in the country and this kids improvement is amazing over this season. The Guns have taken a big leap as well

Agree tmac will come in for Melksham, but tmac is way less athletic and mobile when the ball hits the deck. Tmac is basically a zero in this area. It's my biggest worry bringing him in

Col had the power and talent of trac and a better kick for goal. Just never got the best out of himself for many reasons.

Good on him. was a good move for him even though he had to endure beltings every week. He would've been further down the pecking order whether the emergence of Mcvee ( or maybe we don't get mcvees season if hunt stayed) hunt will get another contract extension you'd think and not sure he would've at Melbourne

So could not give a flying F about these awards anymore. Just popularity contests based on the so called experts in the media. Good on those who are recognised but it's just not what playing footy is about.

Most pointless award in football. The premiership coach is the coach of the year

The Petty party 6 goals against Richmond was pretty great

Trac he went crazy eyes in that third qtr against the Swans to drag us back into it. Just like he went crazy eyes in the 21 gf. Trac in the zone is a man possessed and scary for any opposition

Forward I hope, he'll be destroyed by our backs
