The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread
Here we are on the 4th April 2026 and no closer to an answer than this time last year and the same time in 2024. Any reasonable person would assume that there is at the least one major problem. Silence they say is golden, on this project it sounds like death.

NON-MFC: Round 04
Howe come on down, he left so he play as a forward. How did that go. I always thought it was a [censored] statement. Just a handy excuse when the real reason was he just wanted to move to the pies.

I got it but I could not resist. Sorry DS.

NON-MFC: Round 04
The same as where they were last week. For a couple of years now I have been of the belief that they don't have the players. They over estimate the quality of there list.

Any weekend that starts with a Pies loss is a good one.

PREGAME: Rd 04 vs Gold Coast
The 3 who drop out will be Batman, Heath and Laurie.

CASEY: Rd 03 vs Box Hill
Nothing DJ, do really expect sanity from the vfl? The media just seem to ignore this shambles of a feeder competition.
-
PREGAME: Rd 04 vs Gold Coast
And again the ridiculous vfl competition comes to light again, no game last week for Casey they had a bye so players returning from injury / form have to sit on there hands.

PREGAME: Rd 04 vs Gold Coast
The Sun's had a good first up win against Geelong however their next two were Richmond and the Eagles. Both poor sides who have been filling bottom 4 sports for some time. I think we start on fairly equal terms.

Gather Round Guernsey
Yes but by the time everyone gets their cut we will probably get $5 a jumper.

I think I am back to the worried no matter how far in front we are.

Just another money spinner DD. The AFL cannot help themselves.

TRAINING: Tuesday 31st March 2026
I remember us going through a period where I didn't care what the margin was our way I would be worried we would lose. It was only after Lever and May join that I got confident that we could defend a winning margin.

Welcome to Demonland Tom Wilson, Melbourne's next AFLW coach
Last season I made an effort to watch some games on tv. Generally I think the MFC women's team is a reasonable standard and is worth watching however some games were a poor watch as the other team played a negative defensive style as they did not have enough skilled players. I watched some games that did not include the dees. Mostly I gave up after a couple of quarters of poor play. IMO the AFL expanded the league too quickly and the talent pool is stretched too far to produce good games. Now there are some good quality teams and games but too many are poor games. Would I go to games? Probably not, I don't go to all men's games in fact I get to 6 or7 these days. I cannot see attendance at games improving this year with big increases in petrol costs and many households are struggling to have any disposable income.

Welcome to Demonland Tom Wilson, Melbourne's next AFLW coach
It seems strange that there is no coach this long after the end of last season. I hope it is not the same selection group as the ones working on the move to Caulfield.

Thanks for the info GW. I have to say at half time on Sunday I had tossed in the towel.

Farewell Clayton Oliver
I don't think it would have increased Trac's brand so best he stayed away.

POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs Carlton
Way back when Max had just joined the club he was a bit of a clown. Roos wS I his first year as coach. He told max he could keep doing it and play a number of games or change his attitude and become one of the best ruckman. We all know the result. I think after all the things he did for Oliver he would be disappointed that he did not make the event of Max and Tmac. Exactly the reason we let him go.

POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs Carlton
Correct, it's only my opinion. While I doubt Jefferson's talent, he cannot stay on the park which doesn't help. I did give Kolt a positive rap on the other thread.
