Blistering

I hope that he's fully committed and stays. His 2025 performance was all that could be expected from a player coming back from where he was. Time for him to fire under a new coach and a new style of play after a year to get back into the swing of things.

It was a shocking time to suffer that injury and I hope he's back to full strength for the upcoming preseason. He's reaching the age where his career could take off and yes, we definitely need a player like him who can attack of half back as well as nullify an opponent.

Legendary!

Let's do it - if not for ourselves then for humanity and world order by depriving Collingwood of a double chance and bragging rights. Last kick of the day from a dodgy free kick, please.

Good to see that Tayla Harris has recovered from her poke in the eye. She's a great point of difference to all other teams with her fantastic marking.

The disappointment of the season would dissipate if we could beat Collingwood in the last round of the season and knock them out of the top four, force them into a sudden death elimination final against the Bulldogs and for them to lose that by a point.

Bluevenge … I like it!

But wasn't he living on a farm when recruited? If so, it's not like the Geelong players who suddenly find themselves farmers when recruited from other clubs?

Nathan Jones looked in reasonably good nick as well. I was thinking it might be worth rookie listing him but I understand we don’t have room.

Where was Max?

Are the women part of the review?

The good news is that Trade Radio now goes on a break for almost two weeks and doesn’t return until the Monday after the Grand Final!

Incorrect.

So half of the fans wonder where Roffey is and why she's saying nothing about the Petracca situation and the other half are saying she should stfu. Damned if you don't ... damned if you do.

That may be but his stats match up with some of the best at the carnival. Ben Camporeale Disposals: 26.8 Marks: 5.3 Tackles: 3.8 Clearances: 4.5 Metres Gained: 385.3

I'm relaxed and I know that he won't be traded and I'm not saying you're implying that. The problem is that Cornes, Morris and their cohorts are saying with a straight face that it would be the right thing for the club to do. That's what's controversial. PaulRB is right - it's more than controversial. It's an insult to the club and to us supporters.

Really? What you wrote was "To be honest I don't think what he's said is anything controversial." They were your exact words. Brown and the panel are nodding their heads in agreement and advocating that we give away our first round draft pick and Oliver to another club in order to get salary cap relief. It's one thing to be against giving players long and lucrative contracts but it's quite another to suggest that there's nothing controversial in not only giving up on a four time b & f but in doing so giving away your best draft pick as well. That's nonsensical, not commercial and not in any way resembling what a club with a good culture does with its champion players. I'm pretty sure that you miss the point if you claim that's not controversial and ... you've used up two.

So, after seeing vision of Clarrie and Goody after Saturday night's match, you're treating seriously the suggestion that we give away our first round draft pick and Oliver to another club in order to get salary cap relief? Spare me.

So Ben Camporeale makes All Australian but two “experts” don’t place him in their top 30 players. On another thread he’s been called the star player from SA. Something doesn’t add up.

Does anyone know if they still have a pre match function for MFC supporters on match days? I went to a game years ago and they had one at a golf club near the ground.

Matt Jefferson was a late withdrawal from the Casey team last Sunday. Some said it was due to illness and someone else said it was Covid? Shouldn't he be on this list as a "test" or "available"?

Well done to all contributors. I do have a question for @binman and that is, does he think that Melbourne's best football is better than that of Fremantle?
