Agree it should be blumin wonderful conditions for a game of footy

Happy days

Just looking at this trade with the benefit of some hindsight. “MELBOURNE has added some much-needed outside run by securing wingman Ed Langdon from Fremantle. The Demons handed over picks No.22, 79 and a future second-round selection for the 23-year-old, while the Dockers gave up Langdon, pick No.26 and a future fourth-round selection.” So we effectively got Langdon for a 4 spot down grade (that we used on Trent Rivers) and a future second rounder. This could end up being one our best ever trades.

And just quietly no wonder Freo are struggling. Last year they lost Langdon and Brad Hill. The year before Lachie Neale. That is a lot of talent to walk out of the place.

I hope Adelaide break their losing streak with a thrashing of Hawthorn. Those superior Hawthorn supporters can suck on that loss for a bit

Controversial goal? The umpire could not have been in a better position and called it a goal.

I honestly can’t see the controversy. If it was touched it was clearly after it crossed the goal line. Clear goal, move on.

A clearly elite case of MFCSS that all other MFCSS cases can be judged on.

Anyone know if the finals and GF have shortened quarters too

If any team will need a week off to regroup before finals it will be us. I’m all for it

I’ve been a Salem fan since he kicked the winning goal against Essendon in about his fifth game. But now as a 25yo with 90 games under his belt he should really be in his prime. I can’t help but think that he could use his kicking skills as a much more attacking weapon opening up the ground

Bloody hell. I’ll take that result this evening thanks very much

Well you can imagine my disappointment. I figured the AFL’s 2021 nightmare scenario was Melbourne going back to back.

As supporters of this Club we haven’t had much to applaud over the past 50 years. Personally I’ll devour any feel good stuff they care to throw at me.

I know Hannan will probably always be in the bottom half dozen players in the side but, for his size, Mitch must have close to the best hands in the comp.

I’m a big Luke Jackson fan

That 1/18 win/loss stat against, what has been, a mid table team for most of that time has been stuffing with my mind. At least if we move to 1/19 today I can join the ‘this year doesn’t count’ crowd. I’ll then spend the next 8 months trying to work out if there is any chance I could still be alive before we could hope to even the ledger. PS. Cunnington normally bullies us and then shows us how to play football. He is a huge out

I don’t watch non MFC matches these days aside from the occasional Essendon match when they are a chance to lose. I stopped last night half through the 3rd when they were well up. Best start to the day to wake up this morning and find they got rolled. (My other guilty pleasure is Scully leaving Melbourne when we were [censored], going to a [censored] GWS and finally settling on a [censored] Hawthorn. Yes I know he is filthy rich)

Haha Taylor Walker had a net contribution of negative 1.

Bulldogs will come off a six day break V our seven so a slight advantage to us.

Lockhart doing ok

Really we have only beaten them once in the past 20 outings? Wow that is a sad stat, even for us. Hopefully it means we are due for a few wins on the trot.

That sounds fantastically strange. Were the Demonic Bombing Tigers coached by a woman with the initials JK?

I hope it is us. Weather is sensational in Cairns at the moment (day 27°, nights 17°). Cazaly Stadium roughly the same dimensions as Giants Stadium that we seem to love playing on. Plenty of great Accom and lots of things for the players to do on off days. Very Covid free too. And the fact that I live in the area has nothing to do with me wanting them to play here

I wonder how that will affect Brown’s performance? Whilst I’m sure North will deny it, you’d think he will be sad/gutted/annoyed that he is potentially being shopped around
