He does have a fellow commentator who I think is a former diver, but Tubby tends to hog the commentary 😁

Literally a Spud (in all senses of the word)!

Never mind that fact that our Olympic diving expert is Tubby Taylor!

Beat me to it by a few seconds 😁

These score reviews can be so annoying!! When it’s for a possible ‘hit the post’, why don’t they go straight to the snicko thingy, rather than first trying to establish whether or not it touched, using vision that looks like it was taken from the other end of the ground and with pretty much just the one angle!!

As it would seem unlikely there will be many, if any, gettable ‘big name’ key position forwards up for trade, is Adelaide’s Riley Thilthorpe a player that could be lured away if targeted? I’ve liked what I have seen of him, even though I haven’t seen a lot. A great forward target with a very good pair of hands. BTW Is there any way to search within the topic you’re currently viewing (it could save me asking questions that have already been answered)?

Firstly, I’m a paid up member living in Sydney who is financially bereft and therefore can’t afford the fare to Melbourne and necessary accommodation. Secondly, as a result of six months worth of chemotherapy, I have rather severe peripheral neuropathy that has somewhat affected my mobility. It would have been nice to see more punters there, as I believe that’s the kind of thing that can get us over the line in those close games, but like me, I’m sure there are many who have their valid reasons for not attending; particularly given the predicted weather conditions, the lack of parking, and, I’m led to believe, the interrupted train services.

For what it’s worth, Hodge has us finishing the home and away season with one loss and in 4th spot!

Unfortunately you’re a day out…

I’m guessing that the spelling is the same, but is the Mynott playing for Frankston, any relation to the former St Kilda great?

Who?

Now THAT is my kind of music! He reminds me a little of the Melbourne based singer, Archer. This following song however, is in a style far removed from Jones’s bones’s. I love the fragility of the vocals and the sound in general; a great band in my opinion.

Collingwood and then in no particular order: Essendon, Carlton, Brisbane, Port

While it’s been terrific seeing all of the multiple goal kickers (particularly Roo) and Melksham’s fantastic return, possibly the greatest thing to come out of this game, assuming we keep piling on the goals, will be the pleasure of knocking Collingwood out of the eight!

I like it, but it is a bit (well, a lot, really) over-produced and it does lack the frenetic raw energy (‘power’ belongs to Iggy), of the MC5 of old.

Prescient!!

So that invalidates most of us here on Demonland who write about football? As was stated above by Bing181, it’s an opinion piece by a Dees supporter; he has his platform, we have ours.

I wasn’t potting him… it was a, as it turns out, very poor attempt at a good humoured shot at the use of ‘RoCo’… not keeping up with the ‘socials’ and X in particular, I hadn’t known that he went by that ScoMo-like nomenclature.

Or ‘e) All of the above’.

I’d much rather see us make a play for Max King. Yes he’s contracted until the end of 2026, but that doesn’t mean he’s not gettable.

I’m usually the ‘eternal optimist’, but I cannot see any way out of the hole we have dug ourselves into. We had lost pretty much ALL momentum (not that we had a lot to begin with), even before the loss of Trac! The only way we could have any hope, would be if Oliver and Viney magically found form and showed some real leadership. Max can’t do it on his own, and even after Lever returns, it’s going to be a big ask. I fear that our chances of making the eight, have vanished with the loss of Trac. I consider Hawthorn a better chance to play finals, than the Dees.

RoCo??? Oh spare me, please!! I suppose he’ll be listing himself as an ‘Influencer’ or ‘Digital Creator’, soon.

MFC Headquarters, January 2025…

I’ve also watched the slo-mo reply numerous times. My take is that Moore’s eyes were on the ball for the entire time (he never lined up Trac), the only way he was going to be able to effect a spoil, was to launch himself in the way that he did, and lastly (and probably most importantly), he did effect the spoil. Unfortunately when a running player launches, one knee will most likely be pointing out… if he had launched and it was obvious he had no chance of spoiling, then yes, there would be a case, but that’s not how it went.
