WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BEN BROWN
Found fitness and oh look he’s the same great player he’s always been. People calling his trade a disaster or saying he isn’t in our best team…. lol He is a gun forward. His marking is insanely good. His goal kicking is reliable (mostly) and he makes us a lot better. Also like that he’s getting involved at ground level a lot more.

CHANGES: Rd 22 vs Adelaide
Jones is super slow now. That is why he is struggling to get a game. Vanders is a good wet weather sub, but he is also not great. Makes dumb decisions, gives away costly frees... a good finals sub to bring on for the purpose of opposition destruction (grand final, final quarter, Vanders comes on and takes out Bont. Beautiful), but otherwise a non starter for mine.

CHANGES: Rd 22 vs Adelaide
Has had such a terrible injury run and finally cemented an important spot in the side. Would be gutted for him if he missed. His speed will be impossible to replace. Hopefully just a badly rolled ankle. He got it taped and tried to run it out, so hopefully it isn't quite so bad. He was also wearing normal runners post game, which means no real swelling? Clutching at straws. I ain't no doctor.

Alex Neal-Bullen - 100 Games
Also goes to show that players don't really hit their peak until around game 100. He has been in and out of the side with poor form and inconsistency, but is just now settling into a role. Sometimes it just takes that long. Not everyone is Oliver or Jackson.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JAKE BOWEY
Absolute jet. He will learn a lot from the goal he gave away when he took one step too many. You gotta be super quick at this level. Bowey will complement Salem beautifully down back for a long time to come.

Mate really? Dogs won’t lost to Port at home firstly. Secondly winning games is never a disaster. We cemented a double chance last night. The rest is irrelevant

Alex Neal-Bullen - 100 Games
Incredible game. Not one I thought he had in him, but gees he was so clean. If he can use the footy like that most week he will become an A grader.

VOTES: Rd 21 vs West Coast
Would be interesting to see coaches votes this week. Oliver could just about sew up the coaches award 🤞

This. Hibbo is a good replacement for Hunt. Any word on Hunt’s ankle? I fell asleep before the press conference

POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs West Coast
There is no doubt that lightening break which will likely never happen again absolutely robbed us of all momentum. Without it we win by 6 goals. Luckily percentage doesn’t matter to us, but if it did you’d be filthy. I am just so thrilled that we managed to get away with that win. Another few minutes and I reckon it could have been a different result. Overall we played better for longer and deserved to win. Petty was playing with fire in the last 50 seconds holding up that mark. Lucky the umpire decided at that point he has maxed his Weagles free kicks quota for the day. We hold our destiny in our hands. If we can keep the list healthy for another 6 weeks anything is possible!

How good is Harrison Petty? Thank you and goodnight.

POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs West Coast
Clear mark about 40m out directly in front (so probably wouldn’t have made the distance). Umpire doesn’t even blow the whistle to indicate a mark, Spargo looks over his shoulder, umpire calls Play On. The umpiring at that stadium is such a disgrace I don’t know why clubs don’t get together and put a complaint in.

POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs West Coast
To be fair I don’t know how the umpire could call play on before even blowing the whistle on that Spargo mark. He kicks that goal and it’s done. I am just glad we didn’t cop massive injuries in that last 15 minutes. Take the 4 points and bid farewell to WA, their booing halfwit fans, their [censored] premier, and their crap teams.

POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs West Coast
We have now beat every side in the top 14. Bottom 4 really causing us problems 😂 Thank the lord we held on there. The end of that game can eat an absolute bag. You wouldn’t read about this [censored].
