The Importance of Jordan Lewis
All for Lewis but he must be subject to being dropped if he stinks it up as he did mid year. Cannot have the veterans getting a free pass because of their "IP which amounts to knowing where to set up for a contest.

Tom McDonald?
We all have our bad days. He was molested up forward several times.

Josh Kelly
His career was cut short.

The No T$ No B$ Thread
Typical greens tactic- riding shotgun in luxury- cap in hand to Canberra . Reminds me of Thunderbolt and Lightfoot or The cannonball run - I'm not sure which. Moons Vegan dietary requirements may not be available in the truckstops. I do hope he doesn't gas up the merc in case I need Bitters to bail me out and pretend to be a QC as he does when driving the Merc for me. Canberra is an isolated and corrupt place.I feel like they will be accepted there.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BEN BROWN
I prefer to call him Bradman. His conversion rate was phenomenal.

No we won't get him. Just a trifling issue but why does that ugly big [censored] get to wear a black headband and Hunt gets forced to wear the AFL lisenced product. If they are going to be pathetic and petulant they should do so uniformly or not at alll.

The Importance of Jordan Lewis
He got " clean bowled" which is not a good sign . His hands are terrible- the rest of his game is faultless. Hes one of the most decorated fumblers I've ever seen so maybe he has been for years.

Glaring weakness in defence
We were out marked because North waited behind the pack with the wind and in front of the pack with it. Windy footy 101. The effort looked ok- the energy levels low . I'm not about to set myself on fire over this weeks loss. We got out scrapped in the last half and allowed them to run down the clock. Very ugly game-too many stoppages.

Our Failure to Crush Teams
I remember Swans in the late 80's would belt teams by 100 points regularly .Deisel ,Murphy,Daniher ,Carter,Capper,Wrightetc That was not the team that broke the premiership drought for Sydney.The Roos flag came from a team that refused to lose. The margins are closer now due to team defensive structures across the whole comp, forward pressure etc. Forwards never chased in years gone by and rarely tackled. Rotations and fitness levels are higher across the board . The Communist draft system sees talent given to those with need- but this is undone by free agency. There is more to play for in young sides in terms of careers- so we tend to see less insipid performances like we did at Kardinia thankfully. I thought Gold Coast might become a basket case and hoped Carlton would . North have little to play for but personal pride but I am hoping for a win and zero injuries . Even a 2 point win will be a good hit out for us. Even Norf are not as bad as the ladder suggests.

Our Failure to Crush Teams
We are controlling time ,space ,scorers without ever looking truly beaten. We are mastering tempo. The big margin has only ever been a concern for my harem.

Welcome to Demonland: Jake Lever
Paying $800-1mill a year is not good for a cohesive team like ours has become. We have a combo of home grown loyalists, -Gawn,Watts,Jones,Viney,Jetta,TomMc,Smith,Hoges 4 good journeymen in Pedo,Garlett, Vince and Lewis, drafted guns-Petracca,Oliver,Frost,Hunt ,Tyson etc Having a "Marquee player" builds resentment in a list when they don't fire. Our model is based on "profit share" sysytem as it should be.

He could end up being a coach with his success and credentials Would make a good playing coach in his third year even if he does get dropped/managed.

You shouldn't be living at home in your early 40's anyway Ethan. Even if your dad is your life partner.
