Media Madness
Go easy on MAFS and WWE please @Mel Bourne and @layzie. At least on MAFS the breakdowns are scheduled and in WWE the tackles stick.

I won't say anything is case I say something . . . other than Kim and Kanye are poor role models.

Xavier Lindsay- Round 7 Rising Star
I also have severe queries over Langford. For example, will he win 3 or 5 best and fairests, 4 or 6 All Australians, 1, 2 or 3 premierships. And of course anything less than a couple of Brownlows is a bust.

Melbourne Football Club - The CEO
I'm happy to take a day off work and walk him through the Demonland threads over the last 12 months. He'll then be ready to pick the team for the Meth Coke game this weekend.

Melbourne Football Club - The CEO
Same here @DistrACTION Jackson - still waiting too. Might be delayed — Carlton’s still working out which end of the phone to talk into, and Norf are arguing over who gets to use the last working Nokia.

NON-MFC: Round 07
Tonight’s game revealed a grammatical tragedy of Shakespearean proportions (where's @Ghostwriter in an emergency like this?) "No Bontempelli; No Bulldogs" — tight, mournful, the stuff of banners and battle cries. "Yes Bontempelli; Yes Bulldogs" — sounds like a bad motivational poster found in the general manager's office. "Eventually it’ll just be silence — no Bontempelli, no Bulldogs, no meaning — just the wind" — We are all mad, insane with the hopelessness of trying to find meaning where there is none. Dostoyevsky

The Basket Case that is......
Calm down on the whole dog's breakfast shtick — calling it that is an insult to dogs everywhere. The old VFA might’ve been broke, brawling and slightly feral, but at least it had a soul. Now it’s just AFL seconds wrapped in plastic, pretending it’s still a competition. Springvale in the mud had more dignity than half the fixtures they serve up these days.

NON-MFC: Round 07
Is anyone else finding it hard to hear the commentators and on-ground interviews over the crowd noise lately? It feels like the crowd is cranked up so much that you can barely make out what’s being said. Foxtel is bad, but I've virtually given up on hearing anything on Shamble 7.

NON-MFC: Round 07
Just a final reflection on Ben McKay @Go the Biff and @BoBo, - he is not inside the top 150 players in the comp. Yet North got pick three as compensation for him. Get your head around that 🥇. Everyone gets a participation medal.

Max Gawn shanks left - AGAIN
It's election season. But keep in mind, the further left he shanks, the closer to the right he eventually emerges. It takes time though.

“Every man looks out for himself, and he has the happiest life who manages to hoodwink himself best of all.” Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment- POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs Richmond
Raskolnikov in Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment sums up my relationship with the Dees over 50 years . . . “We always imagine eternity (a premiership dynasty) as something beyond our conception, something vast, vast! But why must it be vast? Instead of all that, what if it's one little room, like a bath house in the country, black and grimy and spiders in every corner, and that's all eternity is? I sometimes fancy it like that.”- POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs Richmond
We are a solid bottom six team at best. Stunning how we blew up an era.- POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs Richmond

Don’t be mistaken, don’t be misled, They toast their bread but not their head. They scream out “ball!” with beer in hand, Then start a brawl in Shame Warne's stand. The filters on 'Land don't let me publish most of their trash.- What they're saying down at Punt Road
I’d play Balta v Dees. Sub him off at 3/4 time…or get him an apartment next to the ground and make sure he is tucked in bed by 10pm imagine jacinta if we did this ? Doubt there will be many changes apart from Ryan (injured) & Balta (curfew) I don't think we'll ever see (curfew) next to a players name ever again lol The key to the match will whether Richmond can apply enough pressure to Melbourne's midfield to pressure forward entries and to create turnovers. The more than likely that Melbourne will win the clearance battle. Dees will be up for this one. Think we only win by 20-30 Trainor to start to get the job on Kosi Pickett Cant send Sims in to ruck against Gawn Can Nank get a hold of Max Gawn finally this week? I know Gawn was last week but Nankervis has had a better season. I feel like Nank run him into the ground be physical and get him this week. The Dees are actually very small up front, with JVR their only key forward (and he's also second ruck). Probably means Trainor will come into the 22 for Balta. Petty has killed us before and he played well last week. JVR got dropped, doubt he comes back given they won. This is our bloody Grand Final for once.
