Jaded No More

Umpire #32 needs a long walk off a short pier

We cannot beat Sydney it’s a curse

Papley is a very punchable human

If we don’t get ascendency in the middle we will lose

Two weeks of embarrassing centre clearance work.

Jack Viney is a very dumb player

What sort of bounce is that?

May warming up according to MFC Instagram. News of his death have been greatly exaggerated.

I love this so so much. What a privilege for JVR to get his number from one of the best, bravest, most selfless footballers to ever pull on the red and blue.

This is not a secret but I think a few weeks of dominating at this level and getting some touch back and confidence in this foot could do him a world of good. It’s a long season and he’s coming from a long way back in terms of missing half a season and doing a modified pre season. A fit and firing Tmac in September goes a long way to us winning a flag.

How lucky Jackson was to have this man as his mentor and captain. Must be learning heaps of ruck craft from Alex Pearce 🙄

Shocked Tmac isn’t the sub. I have no idea what we do if we lose a tall. I hope the coaches do.

So Saints are first on the ladder at 3-0 and Geelong are second last and could be last if they lose tomorrow. What world is this?

When they scheduled this draw it was likely 14th vs 15th which is probably about where Essendon will finish

I still don’t understand how our game isn’t a Saturday night. It’s two teams in contention. What I’m watching tonight is two teams who will be lucky to get a whiff of the 8.

Christ Essendon’s ball use is putrid

Surely if there was even a smidge of doubt over May then Tomlinson would be at the captains run today.

Very intriguing about Petty May is hopefully right to go. But Tmac has to be sub. With May just back from a calf, and JVR on debut, it’s just so risky not taking a tall in who can play ruck, forward or back. Whereas if we lose a mid we have a plethora of options to cover them, including Gus, Rivers and ANB.

Hey, I said it made me nervous and I was right

A magnificent footballer we are lucky to call ours

Really amazing news about Gawn too. If you listened to the Selwyn podcast he said the next 1-2 weeks is sort of crucial to tick off some markers to be able to run and train again. That he’s doing that a week post injury is awesome.

What’s happened to Joel Smith now???

Looking at the emergencies you have to make Tmac the sub don’t you? If one of May, BB, Petty, Grundy or JVR get hurt we are up the proverbial. Tmac can basically fill on their roles and maybe the shorter sub minutes will suit him given he looks to be struggling with the foot.

Unless it’s about keeping it from the opposition? I dunno you’re probably right. I guess if he plays for Casey we will know. Maybe he just has missed too much footy and needs to get himself right.

Wow Tmac dropped. That’s a big statement or he’s literally buggered and they don’t want to tell us.
