What they're saying down at Glenferrie Road
It's so funny, guys like Kelly, Scully, Jack Martin, O'Meara get touted as "future Brownlow Medallists" or sometimes "multiple future Brownlow Medallists" in Kelly's case without having even played a game of AFL footy! As Melbourne supporters we know about taking draft prospects hyperbole with a grain of salt but when the footy media and those in the footy industry ge sucked in makes you question just how great their footy knowledge really is

POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
I was thinking about this the other day as well. Fingers crossed our injury luck holds up but at the moment TMac is the only injury concern and should be available next week whereas other clubs have players dropping like flies. One thing that annoyed me about the game was that the Hawks clearly went in with a tactic to block Max out of all marking contests. A couple were done subtle enough but most were blatant. He only got one free kick for it the whole day but it was clearly a strategy directed from the coaches to limit his impact. It didn't work but it did nullify him in a few contests.

Racial Vilification of Harley Bennell
Racism will always exist. Institutional racism can be eradicated.

Racial Vilification of Harley Bennell
It's not just the media reporting on racist idiots like Hanson. It's the medias reporting and agenda in general. I mean look at the commercial medias subtle and more often blatant racist reporting regarding "African gangs" "Muslim terrorists" "Aboriginal bludgers" etc etc etc It's not just racist agendas they drive, but they are often the most abhorrent.

POSTGAME: Rd 06 vs Gold Coast
I'm watching the replay this morning, I forgot how arsey all the Suns 1st quarter goals were! All 3 were kicked from relatively wild snaps Weller's was the most conventional being a kick from 50 out on the boundary. We were reamed by the umps as well, multiple ridiculous calls went against us, none moreso than the 50 against Melksham and the non holding the ball call in our goal square.

Racial Vilification of Harley Bennell
What a fantastic post, you've clearly articulated why any whinging about racism or oppression by white people is utterly ludicrous. Being called names doesn't hold a candle to institutional discrimination, oppression and in a lot of cases, genocide.

Dees on Brink of Another Trade Disaster
The only issue with May is his age. I was happy with the trade at the time I'm just worried that King is going to be a gun athletic key forward, something we've been crying out for for a generation.

Exactly, would be a backwards move. Plus Smith isn't very good

I know it's not all about possessions but Lockhart must be doing some scintillating work off the ball that isn't evident on TV

MCG Tenants Multi-Million Dollar Windfall
https://amp.theage.com.au/sport/afl/evacuation-hits-victorian-clubs-bottom-line-20200715-p55c5b.html?__twitter_impression=true Well there you go. I'd assume this puts a massive hole in the MFC budget and any hope of remaining unassisted. Conservatively it's about another million dollars we would have to find.

I'm confused, I thought your first sentence was about Smith?

Weideman's Future?
I reckon he is capable as well, just seems to lack confidence.
