The following two games are from the Fosters International Cup against Geelong (Toronto SkyDome) and Essendon (The Oval, London). And we're into the AFL era, 1990 preseason games below I only have brief snippets/Sunday sports world highlights of the first two 1990 games (Bennett kicks 8 goals against both Geelong and North) which I think are up on Rhett Bartlett's channel so won't re-upload them. Round 3 game below, Easter Monday vs last year's Preliminary Finalist Essendon in front of a bumper crowd.

100%, that's what I took out of that article too. They don't see anything in it for them so why would they support it?

Don't forget loading! 😉

Looks like they have an International Digital membership which I presume gives 12 months access to WatchAFL? Might be worth considering. https://membership.melbournefc.com.au/membership/international-digital

Evidently, not that hard 😉

He was coached to play to the gameplan. It was idiotic and didn't play to his strengths. Thank god we've got someone now who knows the best way to make a forward look good is to give them space and put the ball out in front of them. You don't need to be lasering darts onto their chest coming out of the square, you just need to pop it out in space so they can run onto the ball and mark out in front. Makes both the kicker and the recipient look a million bucks. I've always had faith in JVR and he still has a way to go but I think the weekend showed what he is capable of when given the chance in a decent system.

Costs too much pick wise and salary wise.

MFC monogram for formal stuff, Demon logo for marketing, merchandise etc It's not rocket science, kids go to Target or Kmart and see merch with Magpies, Hawks, Tigers and an MFC monogram. It's hardly appealing to a younger audience.

My son bought one of the flame head guernseys instantly, kids love the Demon! I love the Demon, it's a huge part of why I love this footy club. Bring back the Demon!

From the club that produced this, I'm not surprised. https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/attachments/afl-st-kilda-the-streak-2004-jpg.14673/

I've ripped on him but he looked far more comfortable down back yesterday and had a couple of big moments. Did well in the ruck too which he struggled with big time in the past.

Outstanding win today, very fun day out at the footy. There will be bumps along the way but it feels like we are back on track after the last couple of seasons. Roo showed what he can do when the ball is out out in front of him and he doesn't have to wrestle his opponent with the ball dropped on his head. Not many double grabbers today either. I thought Windsor was very good through the middle as well and Max, what more can you say? An absolute stalwart, surely there is no longer a question about the greatest ruck of all time?

Changing train lines, how will you cope! FYI I've had to do this on the Craigieburn line for years, it's pretty simple really.

I think it's overstated and provides a convenient excuse for Longmuir. Richmond seemed to run out the game better than Carlton, the Bombers are just a far worse team than Hawthorn and probably would've got smashed regardless and the Crows got the better of the Pies. What were the Giants and Lions excuse? If we're good enough, we'll win.

The fish rots at the head. Goodwin was just as culpable as anyone.

Or Mihocek 🙄

The McDonald situation was completely different. We weren't pushing Viney out, he was still contracted. He was the one exploring a trade to North and we extended him unnecessarily. We should have told him he is required but if he wished to explore his options that was up to him. We could've offered a one year extension not 3. Chalk and cheese.

It adds to the worsening experience of going to the footy. They already blare [censored] through the speakers way too loud during the breaks as it is and have these pathetic "fan activations", it detracts from the natural atmosphere of the game, and when we are playing in a barren MCG of around 20k people and have just kicked a goal to reduce the margin to 45 points with 10 minutes left it will just feel depressing. But sure, progress and all that 🙄🤣

It's garbage.

Agree, please don't do this [censored] Melbourne

Hardwick and Wallis both attacked Green at the same time, two thugs against an 18yo.

Not if we end up paying half his salary to play elsewhere

I didn't see it that way, it's a talk show, he was doing the setup for Lewis/Matthews takes
