The return of BBB and TMac really straightened us up and the crumbers up forward in ANB , Chandler and Pickett were all on point. Windsor and Howe continue to impress and Hore was desperate and very solid indeed, which was a very welcome return. Gawn was huge , especially against a great ruck in English , and Clarry was at his dominant best, so powerful and clean. Roo performed very well too. Onwards and upwards!

Chandler or Woey the sub

TMac has been training down back so I think he will be in the side to rotate with tall backs , replacing Thommo and also to give Max a chop out in the ruck. Brown replaces Schache, more reliable leading patterns. Woewodin replaces Laurie and adds a bit more grunt Pickett is an upgrade on Spargo and gives us more goal power and mid rotation Hore is a great intercept mark and plays tall and small so he is in for Bowey but with different strengths.

Once again the umpires ruin a great contest

The half time reporter from Adelaide just said that Harrison Petty is almost certain to be wearing Crows jumper next season.

Looking at those training videos Brown looks pretty central as a forward target. He is in along with Pickett Maybe Hore or Woewodin for Bowey we still have a solid back six without Salem having to play there. McVee May Tomlinson Howes Lever Rivers

I would bring in Pickett, Ben Brown and Fullerton for Schache , Spargo and Laurie, and Marty Hore for Bowey and use Chandler as the Sub. I think we can really stretch them with this set up.

Where’s the Collingwood chant now?

Mason Cox has not had one disposal. What an absolute Goose. When he ran through the GWS boys warming up it sorta reminded me of when Dermie did something similar to Essendon. Cox isn’t even fit to shine Dermies boots.

Jesse is just the player we need right now Gee I can’t even look at Maynard. Total meathead.

Imagine life without May and Gawn. We’ve got two years tops

Oh well at least I got to see one premiership in my lifetime albeit on TV.

It’s just Groundhog Day every time with this team. It really doesn’t matter how many times you get the ball , you’ve got to be able to do something with it. We still have the same forward line coach in Stafford, surprise surprise! Horrible to watch, fumbly and wasteful and zero connection with the forwards. If Schache gets another game next week I will not be there.

After we dominated the opening quarter and couldn’t put the score on the board. We never take our chances. Fought back to lead at one stage, but then looked gassed and fumbled ourselves out of it.

We are easily the fumbliest team in the AFL ANB and Sparrow the biggest culprits. Grundy BOG

Salem has disappeared in the second half as well

Grundy owns Maxy tonight

Rivers and Sparrow both having shockers

Gotta be the worst half of footy I’ve ever seen Trac play. Schace is too meek, can’t see him ever changing. Looks slippery as hell out there

Caleb Windsor just wow!

Caleb Windsor just wow!

Gut wrenching news Gus was our family’s favourite player and is a true inspiration in my book. What a terrible start to the year for the MFC, with one bad story after another.

The only thing that worries me , in basic terms, is that we have had a disconnect or lack of fluidity in our forward line for two seasons now , which cost us two finals series while deep in the premiership window ,and it’s yet to be seen if this issue will be resolved.
