NON-MFC: Round 10
Gold Coast has Melbourne 2021 vibes.

PREGAME: Rd 10 vs Brisbane
Brisbane hasn't been the same without Daniher. Losing him has definitely messed with their structure. They aren't scoring much better than they were this time last year comparatively given they were 3-1-5 after 9 rounds. They have scored 100 more points but conceded about the same. They are definitely gettable. They also have the worst % of all top 8 teams.

PREGAME: Rd 10 vs Brisbane
In: Melksham Petty Out: Fritsch for Melksham, Jefferson for Petty Petty down back, Turner forward. Easy changes.

They don't comment unless it has a direct impact on the result.

The expected score at three quarter time had us 5 goals up i think.

POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Hawthorn
I said in round 1 when we had 6 debutants that we needed to temper expectations. This is a transition. Today was rough but people need to be ready for a few more beltings, a few more strings of wins, a scalp or two, and overall an 7-9 win season. I've also said that 10 wins would be a huge win. Keeping Pickett has to be an absolute priority for the club. As should be getting Jackson back. We also need to go had for Worpul or however you spell his name. We missed out on Houston when we had him in the bag.

Sciliy has given Fritsch an absolute bath.

Pickett looking very dangerous.

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Hawthorn
Back in the day that would be a free kick + 50 meter penalty. Given it was in the goal square it might have even been two shots on goal. And a report.

I can't handle another minute of Jefferson.

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Hawthorn
We are winning in every part of the ground except in the 30 meters in front of goal.

Sharp and Jefferson are barely good VFL players. Their inclusion is badly exposing us.

We have absolutely dominated. Need to start converting.

Luke Jackson back to Victoria?
Anyone saying he isn't worth it are crazy. Freo are playing trash atm but they'd be worse without him
-
Luke Jackson back to Victoria?
No team has replicated that since. Probably ever.

Luke Jackson back to Victoria?
Jackson functioned as an attacking ruckman and tall midfielder, not a forward. Which evidently played a major role in the Grand Final. As with Boyd for the Dogs in 2016. You don't need your ruck to kick goals. That's what worked. I still think with time Grundy and Gawn could have worked and we'd have been better for it though.

NON-MFC: Round 08
So at a pub with Collingwood mates and mostly watched the Pies Cats game with our game on my phone. Wow what a game at the G. pies almost stole it.

Melbourne Football Club - The CEO
In Pert's defense he said that after a flag and after multiple top 4 finishes. And it was purely subjective. He may well have been telling the truth. Or what he genuinely thought to be the truth. Especially given the revelations about Collingwood's culture at the time they won the flag in 2010. In his perspective it was the best. And there is no true measure of "culture" outside of engagement surveys, performance, and retention.

Melbourne Football Club - The CEO
A good CEO is well media trained. You don't know what you don't know. Honesty is best at that level and you don't have room to spin. You're told what your told.

PREGAME: Rd 08 vs West Coast
West Coast is an absolute shambles. One good quarter should be enough. Comparing the stats of the two teams on the AFL app and their team stats are very poor. We should be aiming for at least a 7 goal win.
