Melbourne's next AFLW coach
Yes I needed to cut my nails and other important things.

Melbourne's next AFLW coach
The AFL expanded the comp too fast and as a result the quality player pool could not supply enough players. There are lots of games that are of poor quality. Hence the punters have a poor view of the competition and stay home. I tuned into quite a few games last season ( non MFC) and after a quarter my interest went elsewhere.

But but the weather is always great up there, must have been outside of Sydney.

2026 Injury List
He makes it sound like Jefferson has been the chief key forward ahead of JVR and everyone else. Jefferson out means little he has never been above poor at senior level. And these guys get paid to write this [censored].

AI in Footy
If it replaces BT then it has my vote. Only joking I hope it never replaces BT even though I wish another human would. AI will replace humans and make more unemployed. How are we going to cope with unemployment at 10 or 15% on a perment basis.

NC you surely don't think either will play a meaningful part in 2026 do you? I think you need new batteries in your optimism meter.

Because IMO Dc they had grounds already e.g. The Dogs. we have zero as they wont let us on our home the G.

I had forgotten the first two. The other two will struggle to get games this year. Viney has had no pre season and Bowey's injury will see him miss most of the season if not all.

No doubt PSD. Hmm there might be a small bit of NQR involved.

That is probably as good as it gets for the Dees in 2026 with the exception of milkshake.

That is my belief as well Dannyz. so far the only way Jefferson replaces Batman is if Batman gets injured.

Thanks GW, see what I mean about my brain today. The up side is I have just added an extra day to what I thought at this point of the week. The ageing process is truly wonderful. If possible delay it as long as possible GW. I have Kayo, I hope they have more than one camera, last weeks game was hard to watch.

That is fine but the player concerned has been at the club two years and in that time has shown little IMO. If he turns into a good half back I will be very happy in fact if he turns into any sort of good player in any position I will be happy. But right now I don't see it.

Kev I think of myself as a grass roots supporter. I am a MFC member with GA admittance. The advancing years now mean that I go to 6 or 7 games a year. No night games in winter or games with big numbers like the pies or tigers games when you end up in the nose bleed seats. The GA membership gives you two things entre to the ground and the thought you are helping the club with your membership. After that you are just another footy follower. Sadly as I still love going to games a TV watching fan is what becons beyond 2026. Will I then buy a membership? Good question I don't know the answer.

Can anyone tell me if the game is on TV today. Sorry to ask but my brain is suffering melodies from my body this morning I am just short of no patience to look through web sites. It's probably just me but I struggle with the Kayo website when searching for an event. Thank you Dlanders!

Kane Cornes to Slam Carlton
Restriction of trade it will never happen. What they should change is this nonsense of players changing clubs and keeping the existing contract. You change clubs you should have to negotiate a new contract with the new club or stay with the existing club on your contract.

Farewell Clayton Oliver
If he falls apart or loses it. They haven't lost much. As I said it's low risk for gws.

I understand that bing. I am just making a comment on what I have seen so far. Just my opinion.

Imo Kolt won't make it. So a waste as you say.

You could be right but Sharp and Lawrie would need to make big improvements to be regulars in the senior side. Sadly I think they both fall into that group who are too good for VFL but NQR at senior level.
