The Manor's dog has a ute? Clever woofer! 😆

Is that a veiled reference to the Sullivan line? 😁

Daisy's commentary
Rex Hunt, Dermott Brereton, Daisy Pearce. One of these three is not like the others --- two of them would look old in the Jurassic era, and one is all class. Enough said! 😁

Our kick out strategy
Sorry. In a bad mood since Thursday night for some reason ... I guess May kicking it out means he gets a great view of it if it comes back over his head ... 😄

Our kick out strategy
True. But we should be thinking about how to make sure it doesn't come back quickly!
-
Our kick out strategy
A further issue is that if May is kicking out, it robs us of one of our best marks, especially as our 'strategy' seems to be to kick it to a pack. I don't understand why he is the preferred kicker compared to Salem or Hibberd. May kicking out means that he is back in his 'goalkeeper' spot if there is a turnover, but that is the wrong way to think about moving the ball out of our D50.

Majak Daw Retires
All the best to Majak and his family for what comes next. If nothing else, having more exciting players of his heritage in our game is only a good thing.

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Sydney
The premiership is a great vaccination against MFCSS, but I would like a booster in late September ...

POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
He also had his right boot off after the siren.

POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
My take on it was that he was expecting a Hawthorn defender to come at him while he was watching the ball. Not part of his highlight reel, but something for which he would rightly be expected to shepherd for, even though in this case the best thing to do would have been get out of its way and watch it go through.

Honoring MFC overseas. Show us your shrines.
Yes, that one!

Why the inconsistent start times?
I remember hearing somewhere that the 7.50 Friday start is due to the popularity of a program that finishes at 7.30. We hardly need any more proof that TV runs the game ... So I suspect the real reason is "TV schedules" more than anything else.

On a marginally related topic, every Dees fan should, when in New York, make a pilgrimage to the George Cohan statue in Times Square. You may not have heard of him; he is an American composer (albeit perhaps not all that famous). But you have definitely sung a song of his, called "You're a Grand Old Flag" with some slightly different words ...
