  1. OK, it's on the AFL website but for those who have the Tune In Radio application, will you get the game by tuning in to 5AA?

    Wouldn't have thought so. Tune in just gives you the web stream, and that's normally switched off to ensure traffic is generated to AFL website.

    However, being a pre-season game, can't remember 100% if the AFL enforce this policy, but the above facebook post would suggest so...

  2. This is a very nice thread.

    I am not intentionally trying to change it

    But I do not care how nice they are.

    As long as they are good players that can win games for the MFC and get us up the ladder I don't care.

    The rest is nice but beyond my needs.

    Just win games guys then you have my love.

    I never said anything about them being nice. I'm not sure how that's relevant to my initial post.

    I was talking about character. If you have quality people leading, the rest of your team will reflect that.

    This football club has not had that scenario for a number of years now, as has been evident from our results.

  3. Viney, Grimes, Toumpas, Trengrove, McDonald, Dawes, Clark, Jones, Watts

    All strike me as young men with their heads screwed on right and born leaders, each looking like developing into really good footballers, if they're not already.

    Dawes in particular has blown me away by being just about the most intelligent footballer I've ever had the pleasure of hearing being interviewed.


    Is it just me or does our long term future appear much brighter this year? Even if we're still due for some more pain in the short term...

  4. Based on Friday night's game, and with no Mitch/Trenners, this is the team I would like to see in Rnd 1:

    FB: Strauss/McDonald/Garland

    HB: Dunn/Frawley/Watts

    C: Grimes/Jones/Blease (Blease on members wing ;))

    HF: Howe/Fitzpatrick/Toumpas

    FF: Byrnes/Dawes/Tapscott

    Ruck: Jamar, Viney, Sylvia

    Int: Rodan, McKenzie, Jetta SUB: Kent/Pederson

  5. I spoke about this after chatting with Fitzy last week, they have to report the slightest niggle and it is checked out and they are put in the rehab group to work through whatever the issue is, if at all, so Tappy must have a niggle somewhere, Grimes spent the first four or five weeks in the rehab group, he is fine now

    Terlich has obviously been diagnosed with concussion so he is allowed to do very little..

    Everything is much more professional now, there won't be players 'hiding' injuries, or being given a game if not fully fit

    Yeah every day every player has to give a score out of 10 for how they are feeling in a number of areas. Back, hips, legs, etc. They also have to note how much sleep they get, general energy level etc.

    They feed all this into their iphone or whatever and the fitness staff receive it all via the net.

  6. I'll tell you one thing. If Flash continues his injury free run and starts to hit his straps early in the season and gets back to somewhere near his exhilarating best, it will give a massive lift to this team. A seriously massive lift.

    Davey balking blokes on the MCC flank and delivering laser passes to Clark and Dawesy coming out of the goalsquare will get the G rocking again, no doubt about it.
