  1. Hate to see a list like that shortly before the season starts. Suggests we are behind the eight ball before the commencement of proceedings after a five month layoff. TBC is such a crumby term. How about some indication for supporters when these boys will or are likely to be available for selection.
  2. Now without Brayshaw and Smith, Ben Brown and T Mac on semi retired list and so many injured . Getting a bit jumpy on our list preparedness for the season opening.
  3. Quintessential Goodwin footballer. Wish we had a couple more of the type, maybe a couple of real big bars teds up forward.
  4. Also the number l believe worn by your good self Norm. Quite an important number in Melbourne terms.
  5. Bit ridiculous rating trade week in isolation of the upcoming kids draft.
  6. Initially we all got excited and were a chance for Reid, then Dursma, then Mc Cercher., then Sanders and now thanks to the AFL the 5’2 Watson and what next. Hawthorn worked this [censored] out years ago. Let those who want to play the untried draft game do so and they will pick off the ripe fruit.
  7. Current whipping boy by some, but not by me. Drafted 9 in his draft year, has generally been more than adequate when needed, is a good kick and a good big body match up. Ok decision l reckon.
  8. Do not draft anymore b graders ever! Especially those of the slow Garden Gnome vaiety.
  9. M Bay 38 in MCC overwhelmingly Carlton. Think there might be more Carlton supporters than Melbourne supporters. Never experienced this before. Stamp out visitors passes at the G😀
  10. We have or will have a good hand in a draft that goes deep. Why bet the bank? Hope we don’t get sucked.
  11. I wish the AFL would just be quiet and not try attempt to support/ justify the tribunal’s decision. The AFL’s response has done nothing to earn the respect of the MFC or a decent number of the wider football community, including parents. I agree a suspension of Maynard wouldn’t have achieved much but a suspension of Maynard and a couple of rule changes might have.
  12. What a 4 hour circus for expected outcome. Nice theatre AFL. Had the chance but sadly didn’t convince anyone on head contact in AFL
  13. And neither do the other small forwards if we’re brutally honest and that’s part of our coward line malaise.
  14. Wonderful team player. Tough ,focused and a Goodwin contested footy beast.
  15. Tom Green pick 10 in that seriously good 2019 draft. Giants are handy
  16. We all look at things differently l suppose, but some people who were around at the time, suggested that the 1939/40/41 run may have been extended if not for the Second World War where we were well represented. All in the eye of the beholder.
  17. If North get a priority pick, what do we get?
  18. Not sure l agree on rest for anyone. (Yes l know I’m a hard a..e) There is a weeks rest after the last home and away game and we are still in the hunt for 2nd Spot. Dont think I’d be leaving the door ajar to anyone to knock us off.
  19. Probably right . We already have Pickett who is very high quality and can terrorise the opposition. Watson good player no doubt but do we have more pressing needs elsewhere. I kind of like the idea of Dursma on one flank and Petracca and Picket up there as well.
  20. Tomlinson held us together at times and was pretty calm under fire. I thought he was in our best six. May did not play with his normal purpose and steely focus ,same with Lever, although the latter improved a bit in the second half. Good on Adam yesterday l would be sorry if he goes. When called to step us he usually does the job.
  21. On the ‘G’ on a nice warm dry September day l reckon he could be rather useful up forward.
