Sounds like Jack billings 2.0

Steven May staging fine
So are we going to fine every player that drops their knees and raises their arm in a tackle to get draw a high tackle free kick. Don't agree with what may did but trying to con the umps into a free kick happens 30+ time a game and every player does it at some stage. If it wasn't highlighted in the media it wouldn't have drawn a fine. Maybe the AFL should review every game for staging will be a nice earner for them

Kynan (Pup) Brown Debut announced by Alex Neal-Bullen on MFC website.
100% agree on playing time. If your going to announce a debut and make a big deal of you should probably do so if you plan to play the kid in the 22. I think the same for any debutant. Sitting on the bench burning nervous energy isn't great IMHO.

NON-MFC: Round 15
Because Carlton, worst supporters in the league , just angry entitled nuffies. As a 10 year old at the prelim in 88 at VFL Park I somehow ended up in a Carlton section. After a Melbourne goal I waved my flag and a grown man yanked it out of my hand and snapped the stick. Hated them ever since

Melbourne not at Legends event?
Agree on the grub Swan getting his love in when he he a terrible human on many levels. But MFC not having a representative at the hall of fame event is a bad look and poor form IMHO

NON-MFC: Round 14
It does. I think it is all the sides right now our supporters are the least hopeful for what will play out for 2024

Remember 1998, when we lost in the Preliminary Final
Agree 98 was the year that was our best chance outside 2021. We got shafted by the finals system , finished 4th but in that year 1st played 8th and so on, so we won 2 finals and then had to play a prelim against the top ranked team, they changed the finals the following year

Welcome to Demonland: Luker Kentfield
Darling tore it up as a 16 year in the National carnival for WA and was touted as a top 3 pick for the following year at the time. Your correct his from did drop the following year playing seniors, he did play the U/18 carnival and was expected to dominate but had a poor showing. There was various conspiracies that he didn't give his all and a school suspension and supposed nightclub incident that where all part of the plan for him to stay in WA. Certainly a steal at pick 26. But thats history . I am in the get Luker in for a taste ASAP camp. He is a forward who at least has grown up playing forward and I assume leads , has a strong body so should be able to at least compete. Surely can't be any worse that the Petty /Turner output at the moment
