nominative determinism posting

i'll go... 6: paxman 5: west 4: mithen 3: mcnamara 2: hore 1: fitzsimon really good to see us have a dominant win and neither purcell nor hanks in the top six

great result for us, now we just need crom to drop a game over the next 2 to come

yep, during the offseason they are now easily identifiable as a superhero

that holding the ball call can get in the bin

paxy and birch will go down as legends of the mfc

it really is appalling we're hitting the scoreboard and making it count now

i'd personally want to see two years of forward dominance to justify that sort of $$s reckon it's well within his capability, injury allowing

curious why you think caulfield is out of the way @D Rev - generally assumed these days that it's very much inner city these days...certainly in comparison with cranbourne st. kilda it wouldn't suit at all - they're further out in moorabin - while hawks are spending a small fortune (mostly in govt grants) to move to dingley gimme caulfield over any of those options

if paxman's kicking hadn't been so poor i would have given her the 2 ahead of mackin and hore it was so good to have paxy back

it's clear we are the top three sides in the competition this season crows played us off the park for two quarters at our home ground - they'll be tough to beat in finals i think bears are a bit the same, and that's why the final home game of the season is so, so important i WANT that mclelland trophy

6: hanks 5: purcell 4: heath 3: gillard 2: b mackin 1: hore

was lucky enough to be at the function in the pavilion; first time i've been to princes park since stewart loewe kicked a bag vs the tigs in 95 - it's a pretty nice ground! it would make so much sense as a boutique stadium for when some of the interstate sides tour and they want to pack out a ground rather than have 12k make docklands feel positively empty for north vs gc17 for women's footy, it seems to work really well - tonite was a perfect nite for footy, which helped to hold a fellow top 4 team to 1 point in the last three and a half quarters is an incredible performance, especially as they looked very good with overlap run in the first ten minutes of the game gillard is a wall

he's gonna get it free for the filth again, isn't he...

vibes and gut feels are meaningless all that matters is reality, which is that he's contracted with mfc until the end of 2025

of course his head was turned by the crom offer - he could buy the majority of wudinna for the contract $$s he was offered unfortunately, he, his manager, and the crom has ZERO bargaining power as he's under contract for another TWO seasons note that neither he, his manager, or the respective clubs ever confirmed that he was actively seeking a trade... until such a time as the player - or, more realistically, their manager - requests the trade it's all just fugazi

tim lamb is is so good - he shuts down every journo and just glares at stupid questions

aints don't need to speak to us we speak to billings' manager, billings' manager speaks to us...deal will be done by deadline

20 year old small forwards who kick 40 goals in a preliminary finals side and the following year play a role in a premiership don't grow on trees he knows where the goals are but his defensive side is severely lackly good get for the dorks i reckon

pick 1 (hodge) for pick 10 (mcpharlin) and croad

there won't be any announcement for some time these things take time

people also forget that jonno brown went into a forward line that already had lynch, bradshaw, pike, hart, power, mcrae, headland moving in and out from midfield... it was a helluva side

@binman - i think you'll find that jonno brown was 100% regarded as the best player in his draft the bears got him as a father-son gift cos his dad played 51 games with fitzroy; i believe it was part of the reason it was extended to 100 games from 50

would be in our best 23

bernie vince was the last player we got from the crom for a second rounder?
