And yeah Wahgunyah aren't talking footy 😔

Fork 'em I'M FROM WAHGUNYAH TOO!!! Im In maxwell drive where are you? We need to get to the fairy's more often

Started work early so I could make the matinee down at John Foord Oval with Corowa taking on Yarrawonga. Despite Corowas improvement (only falling 2 points shirt of Albury, and should have won on expected score) I think Yarra will be to tough an ask. Leg of lamb on the rotisserie and a fat cuban I'll be round in the forward pocket scoreboard end if anyone's hungry.

Men's department* But I think this is likley. Coaching staff have shown a desire to return to last year's GF team (apart from giving Weid an extended go) and why not. No unforced changes. Salem to half back, Gus to wing, Jordan to bench

Disagree. Jackson into No. 1 ruck spot, Weid into the forward/ruck position. Jackson to ruck 80%

I have a theory that Melbourne nearly prefer opposition to have the ball. Obviously that's ridiculous but they are so comfortable in their roles without the ball that's it's like the default. The attacking is far less structured. I'm not sure how you beat a team that is most comfortable without the ball 🤷🏽‍♂️

Agrees. If fit play, in niggle miss. No different to any week. Just as long as it's 8 premiership points who cares. Keep marching forward

Disagree. Let's just get 4 points and move on.

Never happened in afl\vfl history

There is so much Melbourne in this post it's gone past ironic and back to true snobbery... And I love it. Down from the Vic/NSW border and I can tell that when I even hinted of the $85 jumbuck rotisserie making the trip with us I was met with a glare to rival the crows 2017 finals efforts. The boss if off to the dfo and me and the kids have discovered a German meat house, just patiently waiting for it to open now. I'll hit up Alexander's for a celebratory stogie and we're laughing. Staying in Fitzroy though, can't find a Carlton draught anywhere...

Well no smoking meat for me today... Not unless they let me drag the big girl into the MCG Despite the changes, and the potential for more I'm still not worried. You don't play individuals now you play a system Dee's by 17

i believe it's absolutely possible to catch covid 2 or more times, but (for most people) the more often your immune system has seen the virus the quicker it will react to it's presence therefore you may not show symptoms. Unfortunately this dosent mean much on the AFL because I'd imagine they have mandatory testing so even if you aren't displaying symptoms your still out. It will be interesting to see what happens as the rules relax further. I can see a world where covid is treated similar to the flu(influenza virus not the common cold). It's not illegal to be out and about withe the flu but it's good manners to stay home.

That's what good teams do. Win when they aren't at their best. It's 1 step closer to locking away finals, then we aim for top 4, then top 2.

I forgot the rosemary so it's not rubbed in properly. It's gonna get pulled and mixed with the stewed veges underneath so no matter... Good pick up though

Maybe 🤔

Smelling amazing up here in Wahgunyah 🍻

I have a young family so we already have about 6 streaming services 🤦🏽‍♂️, what's another couple. I actually don't have FTA hooked up, every grand final day is a mad scramble to find a cord

Lamb on the smoker today, stew I reckon. Picked up the quaddie at ascot last night so might bust out the nice stuff today 👑

How close is Rosman? He seems a likley type 🤷🏽‍♂️

Anyone else stumbled upon the wordle knockoff about AFL players called worpel? I've also found; nerdle - a maths version Worldle - Geography Heardle - Music Any others?

"Luke Jackson’s development means there will always be a third threat in attack with no let-off in the ruck." This is such a key comment. Our ruck division is nearly unstoppable. They are very different beasts and compliment each other, but in Rick craft and forward craft perfectly.

Isn't that Brett Ratten season clearances stat about 100 in front of second as well? It looks like a typo when you look it up. I believe Jake Lever had the most intercept marks in a season last year and therefore highest average (over 10/game?) Unicorn watch - This excites me, where is the best place to see every recorded statistic?

Also realize this is hardly worth its own topic. Probably should have just dumped it in the game day thread. Ah well too late 🤷🏽‍♂️

For years everyone (myself included) would be nothing but frustrated but our long bomb to the members flank/wing. All of a sudden it seems to work. Any thoughts on why? I find it fascinating. Even if we chip into the pocket the next one seems to be a dump down the line to Gawn/McDonald.
