Oliver's handballing is poetry.

Given Clarry's durability, he's every chance to break our games record now. Brilliant.

This is the big one. Our midfield is set for the next 8 years. You beauty. Well done MFC and well done Clarry.

In the footy side I coach at Caulfield Grammar, 5 of the 22 are MFC supporters. Not a bad strike rate, but then it is an APS school.

The MFC Turley came to is not the 2021 Premier variety.

He seemed pretty confident to me. We don't normally go to press with excitement and positivity unless we know a deal in our favour is close or already over the line. I reckon he's staying.

Interesting... it's almost as if Scott never hit anyone behind the play. 😉

Glad they had such a great win for you mate.

https://www.afl.com.au/news/781691 "It's what we do during the middle period of the year. We double down, even more than we might have done in previous years," Scott said. "We might cost ourselves a little short-term, but we set up our program to be at our best when it counts. "If we finish ninth because we try to prime ourselves to be at our best later in the year, then we'll live with that. "We haven't been able to execute that over the last few years anyway. That's a reason to do it better."

I agree mate although we will bomb it in at times anyway as that's how go to if we can't move it in quick enough. Having two talls for this strategy is still plenty though.

Having the flu at the moment, which caused me to miss Thursday night's game (wifey was on my case about exacerbating it by attending), I can't imagine trying to do high intensity exercise with this.

I could be wrong, but Scott's comments I read were that they hadn't got it right the last few years, which is a reason to go even harder. I think it's their game plan and personnel, not their fitness at the pointy end.

Yep, loading is a bit like the Tasmanian Tiger. FMD, you post some nonsense. Here's Chris Scott. You don't have to be Columbo to work out what he's saying here: "It's what we do during the middle period of the year. We double down, even more than we might have done in previous years," Scott said. "We might cost ourselves a little short-term, but we set up our program to be at our best when it counts. "If we finish ninth because we try to prime ourselves to be at our best later in the year, then we'll live with that. "We haven't been able to execute that over the last few years anyway. That's a reason to do it better."

I don't know about that. I think they'll win 3 or 4 of their next 4 games and could even be ahead of us after the next month such is their draw.

He's a clean as Oliver at ground balls as a rule. He didn't nail them last night, but we were rarely caught out defensively after the first quarter, so he executed his role.

Bowey is struggling? He was perfectly fine tonight. Played his role.

Head in the sand, mate. Staggering some are still fighting this. As has been noted, not everything will be plain sailing from here, but the heaviest of the loading is likely over. Tonight we were running on top of the ground and in waves. We won ground balls, got it to the outside and generally ran Brisbane off their feet.

What are his groundball gets like? It's more than just hit outs mate and you know that.

And gee whiz. Oliver runs our midfield, @binman. Petracca wouldn't get it half the time if Oliver wasn't giving it to him. Petracca has dynamic moments and could turn a GF as we've seen, but over the four quarters I'd have Oliver, but love Trac too. 😜

Rivers to the wing. That's an interesting one @binman. All depends on his tank. I'd like to see him roll through the centre square too. As for lack of pressure, would love to know what our post clearance pressure numbers are like, because this would explain why we're so high for intercepts and how our defensive system still strangled teams in the first 10 rounds.

Speaking as an ADDer, this new trend of fetishising ADD or autism or "neurodivergence" is bizarre and IMV pathetic. Fine to be empowered but fetishisation has taken it way too far. Also, I don't go around groping girls. Take some responsiblity for your actions ya nuffy.

Brayshaw not rated elite as a half back? Interesting.

And yet we were 10-0 with those same stats...

Just saw that on Instagram. So 1.5 mill a year. Would completely undermine their list management.

He's shown enough times now that he can take a very good mark, one grab too... Dazzle, it's a good move. I wonder if we'll see it now that Max is out and we need a taller deep target.
