Wonder if that video indicates that Kate Hore is the next captain?

Huge! Unparalleled! Exceptional! The other teams can target each others players. The other teams can argue about the injustices of the system. We will stay loyal and get on with winning flags. Love this group.

I’ve only read the last 3 pages of this thread but I think you are all being pretty bloody harsh. I thought it was a really good game with some great skills. I don’t watch many non Melbourne games but thought that was a ripper

Well in that case, lets hope he gets lots and lots of opportunities to prove you correct. 🤞

We were at 26,751 members this time in 2013. At 52,738 we are literally twice the club now to what we were then. And whilst the season still hasn’t even started, we have already passed our FINAL membership tally of every year of our existence aside from 2021 and ‘22.

They lost me at “With exceptional ball users in Petracca, Oliver, Viney, Angus Brayshaw” without mentioning Bowey. The problem with most footy commentators is they don’t know as much about each team players as that’s team’s supporters, particularly the passionate ones who would inhabit places such as this.

Reading about the exodus of players Carlton on the AFL site. I didn’t realise the we got Tayla Harris plus pick 44 and gave them pick 32 back. That’s an out and out steal. But wait there’s more! We used pick 44 (that became 42) to get …….. Tahlia Gillard. Has to be the AFLW, all time draft steal!!

Bloody hell. Huge getting Grundy. Great job. Can’t wait to listen

As Grundy was kicking his goal at the end of the first one of the commentators said that Grundy had “poured bit of a bucket on Craig McRae and Collingwood”. Does anyone know what he said?

Not sure if it has been mentioned here but I thought ANB was really good.

I always like to see Melbourne win but, if I have a choice, I’d rather the team finish the game injury free.

That’s better than what I was expecting. Roughly 3,500 up on this time last year, fresh off winning the flag. Also 15,000 ahead of our FINAL figure from 2013. We have come a long way in ten years.

I hope so much this catches on across the league. It could kill betting advertising in the comp.

Blumin hell Brisbane along with Wardlaw, the competitions leading goal scorer from last season, have also lost: Emily Bates. Premiership player, AFLW Best & Fairest, 3 X Brisbane B & F, 3 X All Australian, Coaches player of the year, Player most Valuable etc and Greta Bodey. Premiership player, All Australian and Brisbane leading goal scorer S6 Apparently they are both going to Hawthorn who were reportedly the only team with Tier 1 spots up for grabs. If we can stay hungry and United we would have to now be clear favourites for this years flag.

Wardlaw (Bris) to Saints Woodland (Ade) to Port Ade In theory it should make our two biggest competitors slightly weaker. Molloy (COL) to the Swans can’t be a bad thing either. Let’s hope we remain relatively unscathed.

Sorry Cookie but I can live with that

After yesterday’s handy efforts in the match sim i thought I’d highlight what Tony Bamford, the South Australian U18 coach had to say about Will ”Because at his best, Will Verrall is as good as (Harry) Barnett. So (AFL) clubs are doing some work on Will Verrall now based on what he did as a 17-year-old, knowing it was at a really high level.” The Harry Barnett that he is talking about was considered the best ruck prospect in the draft and who went to West Coast at pick 23. Also interesting to note that when asked to describe himself in one word Will answered with ‘mobile’. A young, mobile, 200cm interstater. Sounds vaguely familiar ….. Edit Draft Combine results Running vertical jump: Equal 3rd (90cm) 20m sprint: 3.05 seconds

I didn’t get the email from Kayo to activate the voucher. I assume you didn’t either. I had to ring the membership and they fwd to me.

Sorry in advance for being a tech philistine Has anyone else signed up to the $229 Kayo membership offer?. I have just signed up through the club website and not sure where to go from here. Sort of figured there would be prompts to get me access to Kayo but there isn’t. Any suggestions? I have an inactive Kayo account

Why isn’t the fixture equal?

Says here $900,000 for 7 years (2029). It’s a lot to pay a bloke who still won’t be the best ruck in his team or the best forward. Still think he would have been a better match for West Coast where he could have succeeded Nic Nat https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/teams/fremantle-dockers/afl-news-2022-luke-jackson-trade-request-to-fremantle-how-melbourne-and-dockers-can-get-deal-done-brodie-grundy-demons-sean-darcy-contract/news-story/7661437b1dba42a305f9882305c2399b

In bit of a sliding doors moment JVR would have come into the side if Brown didn’t come back from ‘knee soreness’ in Rnd 20. This was from one of the coaches

I’m not sure if this has been posted already but here is Supermacodo’s truly wonderful review of the Grand Final http://mfcdemonblog.blogspot.com/
