  1. SWYL will definitely notice and we'll hear about it every 2nd post
  2. So what is your logic WYL, except for outrage? Umpires are all trained the same, there's still only 3 on the ground, there are no changes to the rules (as far as I know), and it keeps them all 'match fit'. What's the problem?
  3. So by that logic we should have only one umpire doing all games?????
  4. How is adding an umpire going to change the rules? #perennialoutraged
  5. Bit harsh, Ron. I've heard everyone on our list likes him ?
  6. BBO and I travelled to Canberra a few years ago to watch us play them. In front of us was a group of medicos and academics decked out in new GWS colours. They chatted all game about anything but the footy, despite winning comfortably. Half way though the last I made the comment out loud that I was looking forward to hearing them sing every word of the GWS song after the siren! Of course, they had no idea.
  7. The science behind the set shot https://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2020-06-09/afl-goalkicking-could-be-a-case-of-mind-over-matter-study-finds/12332552
  8. Agree. However, it was effectively a dead rubber. Played after the season was postponed indefinitely. Players from both sides running at half rat pace, opponents chatting and laughing during the game, players not sure how or if the borders would be open to get home. Lots of people thought the season was over. Whilst the result was disappointing, only the brave or MFCSS sufferers would draw too many conclusions from this game. Our inside 50 entry and connection with the forwards is what kills us most weeks. Fix that and we are much more likely to win. Get wins, gain momentum.
  9. And yet if not for our R1 defence, WCE would've won by 10+ goals. Darling and Kennedy well held. Should our connection going inside 50 improve by 25% I think we'd win an additional 5-6 games per season. To me, that's our glaring weakness.
  10. Which begs the question: what might the other 16 be?
  11. Didn't he kick 0.5 or 0.6 last time he played against us? Sleepy Joe can stay at Essendon and eat up a big chunk of their cap, for all I care
  12. A certain track watcher will be spewing he cannot run out with him
  13. Set shot: Tmac. No one else comes close atm
  14. Good info Dazzle. Thanks for sharing
  15. Your secret service background has served you well, Mr Bond!
  16. You don't say! No one can pull the wool over your eyes, WYL
  17. Would be handy example if we played rugby league. But alas....
  18. Combination of double calf surgery earlier in the year and his new found inner peace due to fatherhood and home life stability.
  19. Sometimes the MFC scarf is the only thing I don when I go out. High tolerance to the cold, Mr Old
