CHANGES: Rd 02 vs Gold Coast
binman - great summation. Standard stats don't tell the true story. Kozzie's pressure off the ball is vital - as it was in his "quiet" GF. Oppositions are scared of him, leading to fumbles and turnovers. Goals are the icing on the cake.

2022 Free Kick Differential
I think most people's beef (and not just MFC fans) with the Footscray differential is the fact that there seems consistently / repeatedly to be different interpretations for them and their opponents within games.

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
Didn't need to as it turned out. Maybe it was their Grand Final, Eddie?

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
Saints lost it as much as Colonwood won it. Not much to get excited about either way, IMVHO.

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
That "deliberate" OOB shows (like in round 23 2021) that umpires have zero understanding of the game. Why would they, and it bounced in an off break 4 or 5 times.

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
Won't have a coach soon enough if this garbage continues. Ratten would be odds on for first coach to be sacked this year. No resistance at all from the Aints. Still, will over pump the Magpies. Great fixturing for Friday night round 1, Gillon.

Cox mouthing off against umpires - no 50 Double standards, maggots.

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
Great mark King - but not a lot of footy smarts with his kick.

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
What a horrible injury list - I thought they had some covid cases too.
-
NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
But maybe they will (except when they play Footscray of course)
-
NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
One thing for sure - they won't get 28 frees to 20 next week - they play the Bulldogs.

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
Still on top - for now. 136.6%. CFC 132.95

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
when do Richmond play Geelong?
-
NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
At least our "record" conceding 8 50s has been surpassed, and in a real match.

NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
...even alongside Richmond fans ? 🤔
-
NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
I would put them both down as below average.
-
NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
Tigers lost their cool completely. Now for once that IS a deserving 50.
-
NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
The man on the mark just stomped his foot - what an absurd rule for a 50 meter and a goal. Thanks SHocking.

Bevo unleashes on Tom Morris
“I don’t think Footscray can handle being under the spotlight …” Maybe all their games should be Sunday 4 pm at Docklands (or Ballarat)
-
NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
What a ridiculous 50 against Solti.
-
NON-MFC: Round 1, 2022
Have only just turned on - love the even handed unbiased umpires allowing at least two Blues showing dissent without 50 meter penalties. Gil - anything to say?

2022 Free Kick Differential
That "front on contact" on the quarter time siren was jut plain cheating / incompetence. No contact was made. And the HTB interpretations were polar opposites dependent on who had the ball. I hope official questions are at least asked privately.

My 3 word player analysis V Bulldogs
Didn't even notice Libba at all.

Bevo unleashes on Tom Morris
I have never had any opinion, one way or another, on Tom Morris, but Bevo's outburst was just so weird and angry. Has good old Gillon had anything to say??

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
A few quick observations. Well done given the very makeshift defence. Tracc is an absolute beast and clearly hates (the thought of) losing. Umpiring just awful and one sided, once again. One time when we were 3+ goals down we would have dropped heads and lost badly - this mature well lead, very fit and superbly coached team left me only mildly concerned and again a 40 point turnaround was not unexpected.
