whatwhat say what

pretty much my thought too there's a big difference between our first round pick + future 1st when the current year's component is 6 vs when it's 13

Houston is a significantly superior player to Cummings

If he was in red and blue this weekend he’d be our #1 midfielder

So… I know we expect him to play and perform in the last few weeks, but should he be playing? What happens if he cops a significant injury? Also, if an agreement can’t be reached with the Crom or the Pear, will he be amenable to staying on at MFC or will he retire?

it's a real shame but... if he wants to go, he wants to go

Well this just sucks

apart from 2021, virtually the places we will have finished in each of those years? 2021-2023 were the best three consecutive years i've had as a dees fan - i felt confident that if were weren't winning the game then we'd be in it to win it every week without fail

ch 7 employee

Apparently Max Gawn told him to ‘man the f up’ and get back out on the field when he was injured, and that Goody gave him a spray because he went down to the rooms instead of staying out on the ground at quarter time if he wants out, he wants out no point having a player who doesn't want to be there

I was right then and I’m righter now!

great bump greatest ruckman the game has ever seen

his knee clearly limits his mobility from time to time - it bothered him all the way through the back half of 2022 and seems to crop up and bother him every now and then over the last two years he would still suit our game style perfectly; it's such a shame he left, more so than hogan i believe we got more 'value' for him than any other player traded in the afl i'm confident that jefferson and windsor - the players we effectively received for him - will be players for us for some time i wish him all the best, but i hope dog never tastes premiership success again

clearly the case i'd rather another game in town i could attend, but we can't turn up our noses at the cash

calshear dear is going to be a great tall forward for dingley it seems like father-sons, nga picks are the easiest way to get great kpp talent come on down ah-mu and white

not the aints tho...

yes easily he'll get more attention playing in melbourne, purely and simply as the majority of the afl industry is based here

this who cares about turnout at the end of the day - the media narrative? it makes zero difference to the broadcast rights, which is where the majority of the money comes from in the competition big turnouts are awesome, but not going to happen for us as we are not a 'big' club by any stretch of the imagination, and certainly not on a saturday nite against a non-vic side we have an older supporter base i'm expecting we'll have more sunday slots in 2025

goodwin has been clear since the bye round that we're sticking with petty jvr - fritsch - turner / melksham as our forward structure i see no reason to adjust that with two games to go in the season unless there's an injury that justifies it el jefe is not doing anything like enough to force his way into the mfc side for the time being he needs a big preseason ahead of 2025

runs hard for four quarters, wins his own ball, collects it out on the outside, kicks it beautifully looks ready made for the mcg get him while he's there; he should have at least 7 more seasons in him

presumably was draft eligible last season i believe

riak playing this season as an 'over-ager' at under 18 level nowhere near as quality as mac

what has happened to the centre square set-ups and the lack of defensive accountability at stoppages? for a team supposedly built around the maxim of 'contest and defence' we are losing at the contest and not defending exits it should be shockingly easy to rectify but that hasn't happened all season long

saw that too i think he was just following horne-francis at the time, sticking to him as best as glue can

6: pickett 5: gawn 4: neal-bullen 3: petty 2: viney 1: salem
