Lumumba sues AFL and Filth
I am reminded of the Randolph Hearse saying. News is something that someone else doesn't want you to know. The rest is unpaid advertising.

And you expected more DC?

CHANGES: Rd 09 vs West Coast
I remember when we were similarly talented. We did not need to tank.

Membership Tally 2022
At that point Dr. AFL will become a TV game for me. I will get my "at the footy fix" at a lower grade.

Even allowing for that DC even if half want to attend a "big" game they would not get in.

Membership Tally 2022
I always wonder why you would bother being a member when the total is100k or 70-80k for that matter.

Membership Tally 2022
In the regular season will 50k of them turn up to a game?

You would have to think we will break 60k.

Low Attendance
The AFL does not care about attendance on a Thursday night. It is all about TV ratings.

I think you are correct, I have improved but there are still somethings that are indoors venues that I am still avoiding. I know a few people with not so good respiratory situations that large still avoid crowds even if only a dozen people.

POSTGAME: Rd 08 vs St Kilda
It was still a tough one. Glad it was not me on the end of it.

Should have been one more LDC but I fell at the last hurdle.

Well there you go I was not aware of that. It will only take one [censored] to throw one.

It’s all about TV bd. Attendance at both games runs a bad second with both codes.

My daughter and wife decided to have a brunch get together so I could go to the footy. We had a nice time and I left to go to the footy a little later than I would normally. Arrived at Sunbury line to discover no trains. So decided to drive to the Broady line even if I arrived after the start of the game. Mother's Day traffic was heavy. Arrived at Glenbervie to see the train leave the station. Next train in 20 minutes. By my calculations that would have got me to game well into the second quarter. At this point I admitted defeat and return home. Family was there so we continued mother's Day. Why does the MFC always seem to get these games on mother's Day? Oh well replay tonight will have to do.

Very well said NC. I see lots of people who have passions in there lives that exclude almost everything else in there lives. Like you I am a passionate Dee's fan but not to exclusion of those in my life. Sometimes the MFC comes second.

Is David Noble the new Mark Neeld?
There is one simple fact at North they don't have the cattle. I went to the first game of the year against the Hawks. They lead that game for more than half the game. The Difference they had no forward to take a big grab. The Hawks did. They would have won the game with Brown at full forward. A fact that was not lost on my North mate.

TEAMS: Rd 08 vs St. Kilda
Interesting kicking two goals in a grand final after 54 years makes Tom an all time great for the MFC. The fact one of them was after the siren when we were well ahead is not recorded in the score line specs.

Tom McDonald 200th game this week?
And he did.

TEAMS: Rd 08 vs St. Kilda
Nothing surprising in the changes. A good side to front up on Sunday.

We all have options I don't agree with yours. After six year Weideman is average and don't see him getting any better. IMO we are playing him for to him to prove his worth.
