Trac kicks a goal against Carlton in a last minute debacle and he wins the Brownlow.after that Carlton game, I thought to myself, I bet that bs score review costs Trac the Brownlow :/

Prefacing this with the fact I’ve had a few of a variety. 
 

But FMD, this is an absolute blight on the front half of our game. The massive effort we apply behind that phase isn’t to be questioned - even the defence provided by the small forwards. But the entry is quite plainly ABSOLUTELY [censored]!

We are wasting our best chances of winning Cups with poor recruiting and trading to keep our forward line the same age as the rest of the team.

Data below proves this. 

But seriously I can’t help but feel we’ve underinvested in our forwards. Was it hanging onto Weids hoping the kid would come good?
Was it giving Tmac a long and expensive deal after his 53 goal heroics in 2018 that changed our list strategy?

But…

….maybe 

It’s our game plan finally coming undone.

‘Contest and Defence’ Goody says…

Offence anybody?

You simply shouldn’t go within goal range as much as we do and yield such a well below par result. 

PS: posting this at 3 qtr time so still hoping we get up but to be fair we should be in front enough to ice the game - bar for our forward half game.

 

Go Dee’s! 🔴🔵💥

 

 

Lol how can this era be waisted ? We are not finished with it yet, god some posters are drainers

Reported it on the news all day as a scuffle between the 2, lol no mention of eye gouging, shows how dodgy the AFL is 

100% from last year but now it’s back fired, no coming back from this tank like last time they did it, lol

By 2009 they we're squabbling over the number#1 draft pick with us.
Watts or Nik Nat.

Exactly, Déjà vu is a French loanword for the phenomenon of feeling as though one has lived through the present situation before. It is an illusion of memory whereby — despite a strong sense of recollection — the time, place, and context of the "previous" experience are uncertain or impossible

West coast won a flag then straight to the bottom, biggest tankers!

I did wonder last night whether the collision with the goal post rattled Weightman. Seemed to hit his head on the post and then on the ground. Coming back from a concussion that can't have been good. Not taking anything away from Rivers or Bowey, thought they were both super

To me Weightmen was laughing and jumping around pre game , was way to over confident I thought , my gut told me the rookie was going to cop a hiding, especially in retrospect when u hear the story of May telling track not to smile with 7 minutes left in the game

I’m growing a gawny beard, lll shave it when we lose our title

Typical give the 5000$ to some brat who’s parents own a tennis court

Since seeing Tracc miked up at training, a little thing has been gnawing me. “I hate these things”, or something like that, he said when planking.

I wonder why he didn't use more positive language. Such as;

This will help me break through the pain walls.

I'll do another minute, that way I'm sure to get the better of “add oppos stars”.

I'll push through easily, then when you are under pressure Clarry, I can make skittles of your opponents.

Not only that, but I can't see how the negative helps. Drains himself and others of energy.

I know some of it was with humour, “I'm shaking”, but I expect our leaders to go the extra miles and drag the younger ones with them.

Someone needs to take him aside and tell him about how to help push himself and others through the pain.

You don’t mention the encouragement he gave Laurie , typical

In October last year Jack Viney signed a 5 year deal until the end of 2025. 

I acknowledge how great he is for standards, leadership and work rate around the club. 

However, I believe he is no longer a fit for what we need and I don't know how we can afford to play him for the next few years.

Put simply he is slow, he struggles to get any penetration on his kicks, he doesn't hit the scoreboard, lacks composure and continues to have niggling injuries that deteriorate his career.

I think the game is going to go past him with the way he plays and I'm fearful that he will slow down our growth

Where do we go with Jack Viney?  

Viney is a gun, give him a few weeks and he will be destroying teams, some fans have a short memory. 

yes, even with one hand tied behind his back

What’s the bet a dodgy free kick or non decision decides this game?

I said the exact same thing to my my mates at half time when watching the Melbourne vs Crows game last week hahahah

Just thinking, we have a riches of big men, and with. Toms form being excellent, teams would now be frothing to get him on their list, are we able to trade him out, and pick up a player that fills a need for us?

I revoke this post , haha

Feel for the umpire a bit to be honest, it's clear he [censored] himself due to the moment and the crows crowd. hopefully the AFL is providing some support. 

honestly there are definitely umpires who dislike the MFC and tend to award free kicks accordingly, but i didn't see that in this game, to me this was a case of an umpire caught in a big moment and didn't handle it

 

yeah right!! lol it was a complete cheat move, if the tables were turned and we were up a point and a Melbourne player knocked it out of bounds like that Adelaide would of 100% been paid the free kick. It's called cheating

The fact no other umpire over ruled the poor decision shows only one thing. I mean the commentators where laughing, it was like a bad joke.
