Surely we’ve done this dance often enough in past years that we can be a little more choosy in the washed up hacks that we pension into our club.

This may be some of the mystery

Brisbane Lions player Oscar McInerney gut punches Walsh (Carlton) after a contest.
Luke Darcy : “Not much in that”
James Brayshaw: “It’s a big mans prerogative” (WTF does that even mean)
Channel 7 should be embarrassed that this is their commentators response to that punch.

Great goal by Cripps ... having said that he ran about 25 metres (after the bounce) before kicking it.
Umpires never seem to pay 'running too far' frees.
Oh they’re paid it. Against us at least once this year. I vaguely recall a second one against us too.

It's okay, the umps often don't know who they're awarding the free kick to, so all good.
Yeah, there were a few raffles last night where the winner of the free didn’t even have a ticket.

Someone mentioned that some of the coaches thought our midfield was uncoachable. Would not surprise me if that revolved around JV. If there was any truth to it anyway! See Clayton and Petracca as absolutely coachable. Brayshaw also seems like a smart guy and although a bit lethargic at times totally coachable too.
According to this article, Paul Roos states re: Viney that :
“But there has been a really big change and he’s acknowledged it, and he's transformed his game and he became our most coachable player and our best listener.“
So what has happened to this Viney “coachability” in the intervening 5 years?

How does the hit against Hunt not get recognised with a suspension? Was late, high and careless.
Because Melbourne.

Is it the inability of supporters to attend matches where you can yell and cheer (i.e provide instant feedback to the players and coaches) which results in the negative side of that pent up activity spilling out onto social media in a more visible and permanent way?
Now I’ve never abused any player or other supporter at a game, however I do miss the rush of a good goal and clapping with the crowd so hard that my hands hurt.

Would love it to be at the 'G'. One of the sad parts of this season has been to not be able to watch your talents live.
I’ve spent many a match at the G telling my family and friends that ‘one day’ Pettacca will break games open and with consistency.
Oh to have been there this year to see it in person.- 5

Pretty sure we beat Sydney last year with Jones playing a starring role.
We beat them in Round 4 last year and then they smashed us in Round 22 by 53 points.

We should name ANB on the team sheet for this weeks game and then when the AFL ask about it we can just say “Well, everyone else is playing this week so why can’t he?”

Dear Lynden,
I know it’s your first game back in a while but if you could do us a small favour and if McHenry so much sneezes at Grundy please hip and shoulder him into oblivion as we missed our chance.
It would be appreciated.
Ta muchly.

Eddie, Derm and King spent several minutes during our game against the Crows discussing how the AFL are supposedly red hot on getting the cheap shots out of the game. Eddie said he had personally attended meetings with Steve Hocking where it had been discussed and that the umpires paying free kicks for off the ball infringements will sort it out quick smart.
I will be very interested to see if the footage of Max being accosted results in some protection off the ball, especially as North have form for playing the man, especially against us.- 1

We deserve almost every spray that heads our way. Not sure about the "What do you stand for" garbage though.
What does Collingwood stand for?
When the judge and jury enter the courtroom.

I can feel that numb, dead feeling circa Neeld era starting to wash over me.
I just don’t care anymore.

Apparently we’ve scheduled an intra club on the MCG tomorrow.
Wish they would televise that.

The AFL is too scared to say it, but this season is dead.

Generally agree with this. Might encourage people to upgrade their club membership to premium levels.
Some tweaking around country members or members with disabilities might be worth exploring.
Certainly the emphasis should be on members, rather than corporate box packages.
Absolutely, flexibility and common sense are key here. No doubt the AFL will find a way to appease their corporate masters within their boxes so standby for it to be a cluster of you know what.

Where does the rank & file cheer squad sit in this chain of command?
Wouldn’t they fall into the GFG category?
Otherwise I’d imagine that the Cheer Squad would have the entire bay behind the goals allocated to themselves which should allow for adequate social distancing.
Wouldn’t that be the logical thing?

Agree with that.
The only thing to add is if restrictions continue during the regular season once you have been selected to attend a match you then go to the bottom of the line to at least give everyone a chance to attend.
Yep, that’s fair enough.
I wonder how many reserved seat memberships the MFC has sold this year?I would be of the opinion that if the crowd limits are eased and more people can attend, then those with the higher grade memberships should have first choice to attend with the tickets then being made available to lower tier memberships or non-members.

Anyone who purchased a reserved seat with Grand Final Guarantee for 2020 should be first in line for a ticket when the game allows spectators again. (Yes, that includes me). ?
Then people with a reserved seat.
Then anyone else with a club membership.
Any other suggestions?

First Johnny Walker now Furphy’s - next cab off the rank should be makers of thiamine.
Unfortunately I think Johnnie Walker is no longer a sponsor of the MFC. They aren’t on the sponsor page anyway
This year HERTZ are now on our shorts where the JWalker logo was last year.
Shame really, I like a bit of JW (Black and up) and now I can’t justify it by saying it supports the MFC.

So in the (however unlikely) event that the season was called as finished as of tonight, does that mean it will definitely be a 9 way tie for the Brownlow Medal?
