Agree agree & agree Ball moves quicker than any player ive seen and it comes back even quicker when your players are committed and poor disposal turns it over. We turned it around last season when we started hitting targets moving forward instead of Bombing aimlessly Whilst Levers out Lewis is still needed to marshal the backline and coach on field.

Well said and as much as I dislike them the Eagles midfield of the mid noughties was something special to watch and probably third in line Cox(better than Primus and Keating and far more mobile) Cousins, Judd, Kerr, Embley, Banfield Braun and Fletcher

Read his comments re Rances injury. Tells you a lot Should be banned for that alone

There both Marquee stand alone big occasion games and they get 85k+ crowds

You do recall Carlton were 6 goals up last year in the second quarter and Richmond only ran over them in the 4th And whilst we love our club many were saying similar about us getting QB for many years

We've got decent depth now, time to stop worrying about who we haven't got just worry about who you have got. Play your role and your a chance

I'm thinking the other way Red, he will play

That's my only issue with the suspension. IMo I thought when it happened he was in trouble and probably deserved a week for stupidity, but My years of watching footy tell me something similar or even slightly worse later in the year gets reviewed over and over to find how a fine is justified.

You could argue the ball was in dispute in this instance and a contest, not handballed off and out of the contest

First impression seeing it on Saturday was it was undisciplined and something they would look at to set a standard as they always do early in the season. Stupid act and I hope Goody has torn strips off him in private. As was the case with Lewis and Hogan in 2017, theres tough acts and theres going over the top costing your side That's what this was

When the club first started, the only day the players were able to play was on Wednesday.

I do remember him Wise tough call but Flash's ball use when he moved to the backline was a thing of beauty

Neitz would be FF Viney replaces Jones in the middle and Yze goes to the pocket Reckon Flash would be better off HBF than Febes

87 Prelim, I was young enough to believe in fairytales and we were on such a roll. For the young Deelanders we had even more momentum than last season. Even 32 years later I'm still in disbelief watching that game. Closest we've been in my lifetime to the flag

Yes, plenty on here particularly TGR have slated him from the day he came in. We have got a lot out of him and won a good few games off his experience in 2017 and 18. He has helped greatly with player development and now he's depth which all would have been what was intended when we signed him for 3 years My Round 1 side B. Jetta May Hibberd HB. Hore Frost Salem C. KK Oliver Harmes HF. ANB Tmac Trac F. Spargo Weid Melk/Hannan R. Gawn, Viney Brayshaw I/C. AVB, Fritsch, Jones, Stretch

The Bog is long gone McQueen would be closed around 15 years. The redevelopment of Northbridge with apartments and new late night bars killed it off. Just sits there on Newcastle St vacant now.

Can't beat experience OD It's what they call getting credits in the bank, good move before the season starts

Cheers DC all sorted now

Apologies as I'm technically illiterate, but can a fellow Dlander run me through the process on blocking other users. There's one I need to put on ignore asap

I hate to burst any bubbles but whilst it's not everything he didn't make State u/16s Academy this year. Taj Schofield son of Jarryd the best of the bunch who will head to SA next year and play with Woodville West Torrens

You all missed the main one, playing kick to kick with your mates on the suburban grounds long after the game while your old man was knocking a few sherberts back in the clubrooms with his mates

The 2019 fixture for MFC will be attractive to any corporates tossing up sponsoring an AFL side

If we are good enough we make Top 4. I like the fixture Great free to air exposure Corporate dream MCG home games against 4 MCG powerhouses, 2 of our annual blockbusters. The flow on effect for sponsorship and attracting players is massive No room for complacency for the players with this fixture as the job needs to be on from the time we arrive back

Don't think they have to have the post Anzac games this year as there will be a minimum 8/9 day break for us and the Tigers, although they may look to a Friday night Pies v Tiger or Dees vs Bombers the post Anzac round. With us and Tigers playing on Anzac eve it would make more sense(which the AFL fixturing never uses) to have one of us and the Tigers playing Good Friday eve and one on Good Friday.
