2024 AFL Grand Final
Absolutely putrid grand final. Game was worse than the pre-game.

Lachie Hunter Retires
Good player, but wrong sort of winger for us. We needed, and still need, more of a speed merchant.

Back-to-back flags for Billy Stretch
Growing up in Melbourne, Glenelg, along with Sturt, Norwood and Port Adelaide, was one of the SA clubs you were always hearing about; especially Port Adelaide who had won a bazillion flags. Imagine my surprise when I recently discovered that not only has Glenelg won just a handful of flags, but that Norwood has nearly won as many flags as Port.

Caleb Daniel
Daniel has one thing going for him - a miskick which ended up as a Brayshaw goal in the GF.

Woey on The Front Bar
No Sam, no watch.

What was your excuse?
I like it that Melbourne supporters have lives outside football. Makes us one of the more sensible clubs; or rather, the least mad clubs.

Oliver Trade Rumours
Kano and Sammo couldn't possibly be barracking for the story. Perish the thought.
-
Maynard unscathed
May & Oliver very chummy with Maynard after the siren.

Melbourne Rebels are no more
I used to know Wallaby players' names; now I don't even know or care when, where and on what channel games are on. Hurry up and merge League and Yawnion.

Petracca in Colgate Ad
There'll probably be another one with Trac taking the mark.

Umpiring (Demonland in meltdown)
Don't forget the sneaky backwards throws. Very rugby just to shovel the ball out the back of a tackle to a waiting player.

Jason Taylor getting some well deserved kudos
To be fair, you're not being blocked, you're just not getting free stuff.

CASEY: Rd 05 vs Richmond
Black heart?

The Transition
I've been saying for several years that we have overcommitted to defence at the expense of our attack. Fingers crossed - and I'm glass half full - that we have struck the right balance this year.

Rising Star Nomination for The Duke?
From what I've seen, Harley Reid is already WC's best player. (Bit like Clarry in his first year.)

Top 10 Dees of the 21st Century
Really wish Junior hadn't missed the 2000 GF.
-
If we miss the final 8 next year then ...
The club will be asking whether we are more likely to win a flag with our current set-up, or are we more likely to win a flag with a different set-up? They are leaning to the former. At the moment.

Ashton Moir
Sophisticates (like mwa) shall pronounce it Mwah.

The 2023 AFL Draft Thread
WC was overselling Curtain. What's wrong with him? Have they tricked Adelaide into a mistake?
-
Farewell Oscar McDonald
Another big name recruiting coup by Belly.

2023 GRAND FINAL
Most disgusting and unpleasant GF result in my memory.
-
The Neal-Bullen non goal
It was certainly inconclusive on the big screen, but I don't know if the third umpire had other footage.
-
Chair ban at AFLW (now overturned)
Absurd. Can you imagine pro wrestling without chairs in the ring?

Melbourne’s First Pick
If Tayles and the recruiting crew think Nick Watson is competitive enough to cut it in league footy, and that lack of size is not an issue, a I'd have him. Players who can manufacture goals out of broken play are gold.
