Grimes also spending time in the middle and getting a few good quick possessions. when I say middle it's mostly throw in contests. Also just had Newton go in and under and handball out to ANB for a clearance. Those guys look like they work really well together. Very one sided at qtr time though the scores under play that a bit.

Terlo racing through the centre with 2 kicks in an excellent give and go effort. Leads to a goal. Well done Dean.

Newton Trenners and ANB all roving Spencer. That's actually a good looking unit. Geez, not trying to say 'i picked this' but Newton is really on fire. In absolutely everything early in the game, like ANB was the last few weeks.

Very small crowd today. = no queue at the bar.

The Weed opens his account. Looks superior in the air. Bit of a wobbly kick but nothing wrong with his style at all. Looks nice and smooth for a big guy.

Newton comes off for interchange and already has quite a few mud trophies on his body.

The game is on Casey radio again this week. 97.7FM.

Newton is a nice addition to those guys. He has been working his way back into game time and form over last 3 weeks. Reckon his numbers will jump soon.

"Are there any (old) women here today?" said the Roman/Jewish character played by John Cleese, reading out the sentence at the stoning.

Has anyone noticed if traffic in this thread increases around the time of a full moon?

Exactly. That's D'lands Firsts team - The Eccentrics. I'd like to see someone post the lineup here one day. What I'm looking for is a place in the Seconds - not eccentric, just NQR.

Hmmm. Does D'land have a seconds team? I might deliberately run into some poor form to ensure I'm dropped or 'managed' so as to get on the reserves tour group.

Just for a completely different view, I entered with my MFC membership around 1:10pm with absolutely zero waiting time at gate 1 or 2, directly behind southern goals. Even less security than at the G. Then I exited the ground straight away and walked around the outside to gate 8 where I had even less than bugger all waiting time. Admittedly the latter was a Medallion entry and I was getting in on a pass supplied by a mate. So why enter at the first gate and exit straight away? I wanted to register my entry to the ground as an MFC member, before I became a corporate guest / [censored].

Thanks for the correction but I'm not sure how you know what Biff puts up next to his ear on game day, let alone what he chooses to call it. My source was a post from Biff. Damn - there I go, totally discredited in one sentence!

Although he was probably on the ground for less time, my view from the 2nd half was that Oliver seemed the most comfortable in the thick of the pack and looks a class above VFL. That's really amazing for a first year player. Next would be ANB, though with a different style to Ollie regarding how he gets in low around a stoppage or central ball up and delivers really well by hand to a Scorps player usually only 3-5m away.

Wish now that I had!

I'm sorry to quote chapter and verse on you OD but I thought that all leave of MFC members during the official season has been banned since the Paul Gardner 'walk against want' fiasco during his 2003-2008 reign. Do you have a 'get out of the G free' pass I wonder?

I missed the first bounce too! Bit slow getting out of the Medallion Club bar unfortunately.

Now there you go talking about Biff's tranny again.

O Mac has looked alright to me Michie is a smooth mover. Both he and ANB have demonstrated their quick hands around packs this qtr.

Mark and 50m penalty to Scorps resulting in a goal to us from the goal square.

Goal to efc - 6.10.46 to Scorps 9.11.65

16 mins in and efc have scored 5 behinds this qtr. It's an arm wrestle in their fwd half but our defence has stood strong.

Good point Dee-l. No M Jones here on the ground at all.
