To be honest it irks me more that they never have to head down the Geelong Road to Mordor - EVER ! What a joke the AFL fixture is year after year

Yep - I remember that statement. It is extremely dangerous to be making statements like these unless it's all but done. We shall see if boot in mouth is catching.

Was it possibly due to JVR coming up against May/Petty - he wouldn't be the first key forward to have little influence against those two ?

Stumbled across this in my Insta feed - what are these guys smoking? Don’t mind their flogmantle prediction 😂

As Jimmy Barnes might say if he was our list manager "You got nothing I want You got nothing I need"

Freo finishing last would be nice - of course we'd all love to see that But it won't be happening. I was terribly disappointed Jackson left. I have now come to terms with his leaving and feel we will actually be a better and more consistent team with Grundy as his replacement To me he is the biggest loser - he's walked away from a great team, a club with a huge amount of history and the opportunity to play alongside the best ruck and arguably the two best midfielders in the competition I still feel he will regret his decision in due course

Nope - we will still be sent down to Mordor every year while other Melbourne based teams do not I'd rather Hawkins play in perpetuity than be screwed over by the AFL fixture every season

A two-horse race for the Brownlow? Very odd indeed

No don't think its Howes there is another pic of him at training and his legs are not that hairy

I thought the total number of interchanges was staying the same (75) - is that changing?

Interesting I didn't think it was MJ either - thought Kye was a backman but maybe trying him at both ends

Well I'm not so sure now I look through those images again - look at pick 40 Jefferson has black socks and looks a lot paler and less hair on his legs - He could have changed socks but even so looks paler than the guy reaching over Max in pic # 44 Quite the mystery

Anyone know who is flying behind Max in pic 44?

Training Gallery: December 12 (melbournefc.com.au) He was there

Surely warrants a "please explain" from the AFL?

Big fan of Disco and think he has loads of potential but he offers something quite different to Hibberd Not sure he is competing with the Hibbard role though - for example not sure he would be my choice to take Charlie Cameron, Ginnivan, Weightman - however Hibberd would be until he stops doing a great job

Losing track of which country I live in these days

How could they have gotten that sooooo wrong 😃

Grundy is not a high leaping ruckman - from what I've seen of him he tends to use his body to block the drop zone and rely on his judgement of the ball dropping to out position his opponents very different to a Jackson, Draper etc Grundy does his best work at boundary throw ins and other stoppages rather than centre bounces IMO

The ones to watch: future bright for Multicultural stars | NEWS | AFL Victoria This article seems to suggest that Riak Andrew is tied to Essendon's NGA?

If you look at their shoulders not the top of their heads the difference is a bit more obvious Will has a fair mop of hair 😃

Loving the confidence of young JVR to want to take on the famous #2 - will be nice to see that special jumper back out on the ground Have a sneaky feeling that our new #26 might impact sooner than some think - his draft footage was very impressive, looks like he has good disposal, can take a mark, capable at both ends of the ground

Can't see any real downside with giving this young fella another chance Has pace, good disposal skills and will be well coached under Chocco and Co If he is one of Kozzies mates that's an added bonus

I didn't hear the show but is it possible that Garry just didn't say anything because he didn't want to focus the commentary on a racial issue and merely wanted to talk about footy and a young fella starting out his career As I said I didn't hear it, so I'm interested to know your thoughts - did he actually say anything to suggest he supported any antisemitic ideas or is he thought to be at fault for not "calling out" something that could offend some of his listening audience
