  1. naicos so good acting is Selwood levels
  2. ben long another aints no-hoper who has come good once he got out of that cesspool maybe we SHOULD chase the aints' king, offer him a hefty deal to have the ball kicked on his head from our mids rather than theirs - i really don't rate his workrate, but perhaps we can turn it around
  3. wrong thread, thought this was the non-mfc one current thinking... IN: Salem, Jefferson OUT: Pup Brown, Petty woey 2.0 back to sub
  4. given how tall meth coke are, wouldn't surprise me to see tomlinson retained if petty is out it's either time to blood jefferson or fullarton, albeit the latter looking better for being the #1 ruckman at vfl level and if petty is hamstrung then it should be jefferson coming in i guess we wait and see re fitness of salem and bowey; i wouldn't be rushing either back in
  5. fullarton was much better as a ruckman today definitely assisted by playing there continuously due to verrall's concussion sestan impressive second half, bill laurie consistently mid, while pup brown and howes are starting to get that 'too good for vfl' look about them - not quite there but getting there
  6. EL JEFE mark floating in front of the pack from the long bomb from adams - dude reads the play beautifully goal
  7. if sestan can get his fitness base where it needs to be he can 100% make it in the afl - great by foot
  8. he has a lot of tackles as he's second man in at contests chandler's frontal pressure is much better
  9. couldn't agree with this less
  10. classique bloods in 24 - slow to start, grind it in q2 and q3, run away with it in the last
  11. he doesn't provide the defensive pressure laurie will either make it as a mid at afl level or he'll have a long vfl career a la mitch white
  12. that's two good games in a row as a chf in my view did he do his hamstring late, or was that wrong?
  13. What’d he say?
  14. this sort of comment does such a disservice to the ol' #8 yr username was inspired by petty was huge in the last two minutes last week - pack mark following pup's big tackle, then great workrate to be last man back defensively as they pressed again in final minutes i'd say yr the useless one, not the 24 year old premiership player
  15. he's one of a handful of 16 year olds who has played 'up' for a pretty strong allies u/18 side so he's already somewhat regarded
  16. tipping: them dogs bloods? gc17? peptides? gw$? aints? baggers dorks best result for mfc: us kangas bloods draw? draw? crom aints tigs meth coke
  17. clicks, clicks, and more clicks
  18. woey 2.0's lack of game time in the second half of the vfl may be explained that the plan was always to bring him in as a bigger body than pup brown vs the bears i don't particularly like the lack of reward for result, but i can understand it amw for salem makes sense given the latter's injury and the desire to leave rivers as a midfielder
  19. that backline will be super slow and unco with those four talls
  20. is he rfa? ufa? otherwise, crom will want a second rounder for him you'd think
  21. is he better than jvr now? comparative #s for 2024:
  22. we're placed as a side two games from 2nd on the ladder so i would say yr in it to win it until yr not oliver is far, far more valuable as such in the senior side - they call it 'value over replacement player' in baseball, which measures "how much a hitter or pitcher contributes to their team in comparison to a replacement-level player who is an average fielder at that position and a below average hitter" i don't know how you'd measure it in the afl, but oliver's vorp would, i suspect, be significantly higher than any other midfielder we currently have running around for us at vfl level and probably over anyone else bar max and possibly lever in the afl side this round for me the notable change - again, since the hamstring tendon injury - is in clayton's ability to power out of contests he's not using his legs anymore and his defensive workrate has definitely got progressively worse since the premiership so he can't make up for it by doing the little things that he used to do the notion of him playing vfl just doesn't make sense to me
  23. would happily give battle a six year deal versatile talls who impact in the air and at ground level don't grow on trees he's only 25, will only be 31 when he next comes out of contract
  24. should never have put ourselves in that position in the first place football is a game of momentum these days, and north got all theirs going in the last quarter and, to be honest, the second quarter - they should never have let the margin balloon out as it did and could well have been in front at half time as they were as dominant in 2 and 4 as we were in 1 and 3 our defensive structure held them up in the last few minutes and petty's clunking mark after pup's big tackle was a huge part of us holding on imo
  25. melksham was amongst the fittest players on our list - every chance to play on in 2025 if he and the club can come to an agreement yr a long time retired after all... anyway, unfortunately i agree with @middleagedemon - i think we're on a hiding to nothing this week; the line of 29.5 looks pretty generous...to them mind you, i tipped north last week, so what would i know...other than that my mfcss is STRONG
