Dr. Gonzo

Don't you mean relax ?

He's pulled up sore every game since returning I don't think is a new thing. Listening to him on the MFC podcast after his return he delayed getting treatment earlier in the year thinking it was just a small thing so obviously now the second he doesn't feel comfortable he's going to notify the docs and get it checked out. He may or may not play on Sunday but I don't think you can fault the club for having him train, he has to train in some capacity if he is expecting to play.

Last year we seemed to cop teams at the worst possible time, this year we've had a decent run which continues this week against the Crows with their current injury problems. If we're fair dinkum this is 5 on the trot.

Our crowd numbers actually stack up pretty well

Tyson and Vince would clear up a little space you'd think

I could've told you that! Seriously I don't put any stock in anything these new breed journos say, more likely to source info off here than anyone connected in the footy world.

Fixed ?

Yes. He was one of our best early in the game.

Watching on tv I was thinking at half time we have a tendency to run forward in waves but it was like we were aiming to get the ball to about 35-40m out and then didn't really know what to do, handballing in circles, stuffing around with it etc The 2nd half it felt like we started attacking the goals rather than trying to set it up a bit further out and we just steamrolled forward. It was dominance which I haven't seen from a Melbourne side before whenever we got the footy we would roll forward with 3 or 4 players similar to GWS "Orange tsunami"

Levers been improving every week and played his best game for us today

2005 we beat them by 105pts

Prestia went to Richmond. Turned out well but at the time it seemed a purely financial decision.

That's a stretch saying Hunt is "classy" ?

We played them again later in the year and beat them by 2 goals (ANB to Lewis with 30 seconds left who kicked a goal).

I don't know how he feels about it but I hate it when people call him "Jeffy"

Yes currently the boundary ump waits for nominations before throwing in. If no-one nominates in time that team is not allowed to have someone contest the ruck (happened in Pies/Cats on weekend). Not sure what the new rule will be I assume they'll just make it up on the fly.

Then teams will "pretend" their ruckman is going to continue test but have a 3rd man in jump over the top - it would be dangerous as the designated ruckman is not expecting contact from that player and the opposition may unknowingly block his path leading to a free kick.

No mate, it's because you denigrate MFC supporters any chance you get and actively turned your back on the club to support GWS over on BigFooty.

Our gamestyle might pay off this week - just smashing the ball into F50 lobbing it up to packs - chances are we'll get more frees up forward than usual.

Where did you see this? Can't see anything on AFL or Age websites

What does the rulebook say then?

Exactly - as long as the ball is within 5m play on. If it's not, free kick. Simple.

What about 2014? Richmond were 3-10 I think and made the finals

Just like Carlton I hope they are only 2 decades in to their 5 decades of horror.
