  1. Pretty sure they made the dimensions to be the width of Marvel and Length of the MCG
  2. Except the proper dimensions of our home ground
  3. It should also include funding from governments and the like. Geelong will be well out in front with an entire stadium being rebuilt just for them (for the benefit of the community my @r$e)
  4. Our midfield depth is getting very thin, definitely need the likes of Sparrow, Hunter, ANB and Rivers to really step up and demand a spot in the midfield, otherwise too much will again fall to too few (Jack, Clarry and Trac can’t be on the ball all the time). Hopefully May is good for a couple more top years, allowing Turner and Adams time to properly develop. What to do with Tomlinson? There is definitely a spot there for him in the backline if he wants it (Goody needs to give him a chunk of games - he was a walk up start to our defence for the 2021 GF prior to injury). Poor old Max can’t keep going forever can he? He’s gonna have to do it for at least another year. As for our forward line??? Can Roos broad shoulders carry our forward hopes……….a lot to ask of a 20 year old as Fritta no doubt will get the #1 defender. Our smalls really need to form their own potent mosquito fleet this year and really be manic with their inside 50 pressure. I feel this is where we can really make an improvement from the last 2 years.
  5. Difference between us and Dogs was that we were the best team all year, they were the best team of the finals. They did it for 4 weeks, we did it for 26.
  6. He retires as a premiership player. An MFC premiership player no less. His 2nd & 3rd quarters were immense in the GF. And that diving mark, goal and celebration ❤️❤️❤️ I hold no hostility towards Maynard, should have he been suspended? yes, but it’s not his fault how spineless the AFL are. You are MFC royalty Gus. Go in good health.
  7. Wow, our absent list has ballooned lately. #noinjuries#
  8. Unfortunate for Turner, but he is another whose body seems to struggle with the rigours of AFL level training. He hasn’t been overly impressive in his senior games, and with Petty injured and future uncertain our KPP stocks start to look thin (especially factoring May’s eventual retirement). We really need the likes of Jed Adams and Matthew Jefferson to step up these next 2 years along with Roo as our generation next in our bigs department. Fullarton becoming a mainstay would help too.
  9. Peter Bell must’ve been heading their trade table 🤮
  10. I can’t be the only one that thinks letting Harry go mightn’t be the worst idea. The money he no doubt will command is much too high from his output so far. Throw in his penchant to get injured, why not go and get someone with more runs on the board, proven fitness record and for the same or less $.
  11. Forward line issues will be solved if we deliver the ball into the middle of the 50, as opposed to pockets and flanks.
  12. I agree, I think we will drop……… …….the hammer
  13. Have to disagree with you on the hunger. whether or not it was unsustainable or that the playing group has dropped off or a combo of both, our pressure for near 4 quarters was simply manic and outstanding - everyone bought in and played as a team, now too much is left up to too few. 2021 was truly something else and I’m bloody glad I got to see it.
  14. What were our odds for the flag prior to round 1 2021? No one saw us coming then, nor could the fathom us saluting in 2024. IDGAF.
  15. Stick a fork in him, he’s just about done I’m afraid. Forward line is going to be a problem yet again this year.
  16. Yep that organisation is so morally corrupt with ulterior motives. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still filth.
  17. The media division went $h!t when Ben Gibson left
  18. Good question. At the end of 2020, most wouldn’t have thought our window was open. Likewise the Giants who were only a kick away from a GF this year. ‘Windows’ can’t be calculated, much like potential.
