simple, its rigged

I'll never forget his chase down tackle of Petrucelli over here in the west. The Eagles so-called speedster chose the wrong bloke to take on and ended up embarrased with his jumper torn to shreds. I've never screamed ball as loudly and felt so vindicated when it was awarded. These days I'm sure it would have been paid a free kick against Frosty for a dangerous tackle. Enjoy: postscript: I forgot about the missed 15 m pass after this play...truly encapsulates the enigma that is Frosty.

We revert to type: Bottom 4, player exodus at season's end and full rebuild, it's the Melbourne way.

Used to love the Petracca Parmy...much too salty these days.

Don't worry, my weekends are spent playing Uber driver for my two kids to their sports (junior footy). I'll need to wait a few more years yet before I can have a free weekend during the winter.

This incident is Darcy Moore's fault completely and utterly. He decided to go to ground in a 50/50 contest in which both players were contesting a loose ground ball, thus causing the contact to be high. This is no different to a player ducking his head in a tackle to attempt to con an umpire into awarding a free kick. Furthermore, the sliding in action should clearly have been paid as a free kick to Kozzie for contact below the knees. What Moore did was the epitome of an illegal below the knee contact action, which was rightly outlawed all those years ago to prevent horrific lower leg injuries from occuring. Kozzie is lucky he didn't have his ankles snapped. If Kozzie doesn't get exonerated for this, that'll be the final straw for my interest in AFL.

Yeah it was a nice touch. Sucks to hear him mention ANB on his way out the door. Irreplaceable in my book.

You're taking the proverbial urine surely? Our team playing a line in the sand game? We'd probably rather punch slap each other than the opposition.

Billings & Fritsch - butter (at room temperature) is harder

....off a sheer cliff leading into a craggy abyss" come on Simon, you forgot to finish the quote.

Kozzi is a good player, but the others are all bog average. Rivers needs to wear gloves or something, cause he is a fumble king with zero composure.

This is almost the end of the line for me and the MFC/AFL. My motivation and interest are at an all time low. I just googled how to cancel my membership FFS! That's how I'm feeling right now. Hearing 10s of thousands of supporters cheering Maynard just doesn't sit well with me. Watching our blokes put in the most disgraceful efforts in four games now (Bris, WCE, Freo, Pies), not to mention the two straight sets exits of 22 and 23. It's broken me. How quickly have we gone from dominating force to irrelevant? It truly is mind boggling.

I hear there's a good undersized back flanker available in the top 10 this draft. We should pounce.

play the kids

don't fret 'landers Billings will save the day
