Time to go Oscar!
No explanation from the club. IF and I emphasise IF it is a 'mental health issue' could this also be at least part of the explanation for his big brother's poor season? Just asking. Backlines of any calibre would struggle with the lack of midfield and high forward defensive pressure we have displayed this year. Ball bombs forward, cleared with a chain of often uncontested possessions and bang to a leading opposition forward. All the surviving defenders (from our best 22) would be struggling.

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Collingwood
He will need to have a plan for Oliver, but if Billy plays he could allow things to pan out as they occur.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND KYLE DUNKLEY
dieter, I had anticipated that Hemmingway would have beaten me to the punch.

Time to go Oscar!
Multiple factors, but injuries are a big one. And not just injury numbers but to which players, especially our brittle defence. Add in the loss of Hogan, for which we anticipated Tom McDonald continuing his stellar form from 2017-2018 offsetting and we are where we are. Whether we can put Tom's decline down to injury (of some as yet unspecified nature) or some other psychological factor I have no idea. But, had Tom played as he had the previous 2 years, Weed would almost certainly have come on a lot faster than he ha and our forward line would have far better structure.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND KYLE DUNKLEY
So is he actually Andrew Dunkley's father (or perhaps grandfather) and not his son? Wordsworth's poem has always confused me but this may be the explanation? My Heart Leaps Up When I Behold - William Wordsworth (1802) My heart leaps up when I behold A rainbow in the sky: So was it when my life began; So is it now I am a man; So be it when I shall grow old, Or let me die! The Child is father of the Man; And I could wish my days to be Bound each to each by natural piety.

First Chaplin, now this....
BBO - after the events of this weekend I am happy that you didn't use the word f-logging. You may get a suspension by PC Gillon.

If it were May or Lewis they would be cited for striking and offered 3 with an early guilty plea. ?

Round 12 Non MFC Games
I read that he called him a "bald [censored]" ... so speaking the truth is now an ejecting offence in Gill's PC AFL. Enough! And Adelaide overran another team with a big lead in the last quarter! Two weeks in a row, Have they been swabbed?

Key forwards - let's go shopping!
One vital piece in the whole jigsaw puzzle is to determine what really has gone wrong with Tom McDonald this year, and is whatever the problem may be is it remedial?

Fans Behaving Badly?
LDvC For those particular heads to roll someone would have to first extract them from a very unpleasant dark place where they seem to reside - good luck trying that!

Time to go Oscar!
And Goodwin should join him. Zero passion for the backbone of the club, us fans. Full of lame excuses but wonât get a bloody kicking coach!

POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Adelaide
Soft as .... Salem had gastro .... seems to have spread to the whole team, NB Garlett who urgently needs a change of underwear. Yes. We have done so well with high draft picks over the years. Other than Oliver and Brayshaw do we have any stars from top end picks?

POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Adelaide
Are you an alias for Simon Goodwin Looking forward to his âpositive spinâ and âempathy with the supportersâ BS. How about spending all next week doing hail kicking Once again about 20 more inside 50s to no avail. Just abysmal.
