I thought Hibberd was great at winning a contest but his disposal was very unreliable when he got it.

He'll be a Melbourne premiership player forever.

You don't drop an important defender after just coming back from a break. He's not "tired" to need "resting". He had 23 disposals (12 contested) and kept Cumberland quiet after he kicked three early goals.

We will need to manage some players, but Hibberd has just come back in. He plays a vital role on mid or small forwards.

I think Sestan is any player whose number ends in 8.

Reverse order please. I bet Yeates, Yze and Ziebell were always annoyed at school when the teacher marking the roll started at A and said "You can go when I've called your name".

He looks for controversy to generate headlines and clicks.

I'm hoping the Dockers are like Musk's rocket ... suffer a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly.

I think the laggard now is the Tribunal. They need to get on board with the anti-concussion strategy. I can't see how they let some cases off. McKay for instance, ran straight at Sheezel with his arms crossed and elbows up, but got off

Nah, wait for another three months so we can get this thread to 100 pages of angst. 😅

The players will adapt. Just don't use that double-action throw.

It's only two weeks ago that we beat the Swans by 50 points.

Always have to laugh at the keyboard medicos who know better than the club's doctors and fitness staff.

We shouldn't play Gawn too early, Brown has a crook back, Lever a bung foot and Hibberd has an Achilles. Dunstan and Schache are VFL standard. Harmes has only played one game in the VFL since returning and Laurie has played one game in his career. /mfcss 😄

He had one shot from about 45 for a behind.

Tom McDonald has been good, justified his inclusion so far.

There were 11 scoring shots (7.4), that's all I can think of.

Lots of "chipping away" needed when you're 72 points up at 3/4 time!

Dissent rule back in fashion. Rule of the week.

He played 25 games in 2021. He was a valuable member of the side that got us into the finals and to the Grand Final. Why would he feel "uncomfortable"?

From some supporters maybe. But we are not the team. The team will be taking the match seriously.

Well, you'd think they want supporters from every team to play it.

It's a good reminder not to jump to conclusions when players are traded out, or when those selected or traded in have hardly played a game.

I think in the article he did. But an 8-year-old doesn't have a concept or a time frame from before he was born. He just sees the present day as the only reality. I saw 6 Melbourne premierships up to the time I was 13. Do you think my kids gave a toss about that when they just saw us down the bottom of the ladder every week?

It's not Hawthorn the club whingeing. It's just about a dad and his son.
