Impact of rule changes
One concern to me is that some players will milk the 50 meter penalty bizarre new rule to try to get double or even triple 50s. It is far too open to gaming, and to maggotorial interpretations, andofferes far too great a penalty for what are often minor technical breaches The 50 (as opposed to 10 or 15) is already too harsh for many minor infractions The 666 set up will put huge emphasis on wingmen having sharp sprinting ability. Could be a savior for the somewhat out of favor Hunt.

How the New Recruits are Tracking
I am sure it is a sign, though of what I am uncertain - even clueless. Perhaps some of the deep thinkers here like Hemingway will find the truth.

Weids ready to grab opportunity with both hands
Thanks Watson Those stats maybe say a bit about an individual player’s involvement and commitment in pressure games. Weed’s chasing, tackling and pressure has been streets ahead of Jesse, as well as his set shot goal kicking routines, and outcomes.

Meet Braydon Preuss
If Preuss becomes “interchangeable and equal” with Max we will indeed become the feared and the hunted.

AFLX Revamped
What an absolute wankfest we have ru(i)Ning our game. I ceased to woder that several years back. Gil to dash onto the field on his polo pony: would bring both members of the crowd to their feet.

Tom Mitchell out for the season
Weird family was revealed when daddy repeatedly tried to excuse and deflect little boy’s inexcusable carrying on.

Meet Braydon Preuss
Good to hear ..... but how can you bring yourself to speak with Norf fans?

Tom Mitchell out for the season
Horrible thing to happen to anybody. Will take a very long time to recover tohis high standards, if at all.

TMacs Toe .... Again?
Which supermarket and more importantly what was he buying? Anti-inflammatories? Sox? Nail clippers? Health food?

Origins/meanings of Display Names?
Some of my friends (and quite likely some not so friendly observers at matches) seem to believe, for some very strange reason, that I am just a little one eyed about the amazing mighty Demons. And it was not until a while after I registered that it was pointed out, interestingly by an optometrist, that I couldn’t spell?

Tim Smith v Cam Pedersen
I don’t see how one can say that Smith “is a better forward than Pedersen”: sure he may become one but is entirely an unknown quantity at this stage. But Pedersen has run his race,and Smith is still in the running. And I do agree that this whole thread is anything other than comparing like with like, which at least to me makes it fairly meaningless

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KADE KOLODJASHNIJ
Nev Jetta went from delist to essential part of the team and leading AFL small defender after recovering from (presumably) similar issues. Hope KK can do the same.

My ingrained pessimism (gained from following MFC since the glory years) had me gasping with resigned horror as I quickly read this as “finished for the season”! ??
