  1. that's a good point First night of the swimming which is where most of the eyeballs will be. On reflection a competition pause for a week or two makes sense but we know how one eyed the AFL can be. PS: I assume our game is Saturday... if it's Friday it'll clash with the Opening ceremony
  2. no... cancelled unfortunately Ironically Sydney and GWS seconds played yesterday and 3 from each team had to go around again today due to the covid exposures at the rugby.
  3. not a great result for MFC. anyway 2.5 games ahead of 5 and 6.
  4. Some blame the Players association and the Enterprise bargaining agreement which limits time spent by a player at the club. In the old days goal kicking was a solitary skill practised outside training. Now it has to form part of training which takes away from other team activities. No idea what the answer is. Sometimes we are the beneficiary of wayward kicking. Few remember that in our glorious defeat of Hawthorn in the 2018 finals the usually very accurate Jack Gunston kicked 3 goals 5 behinds
  5. no crowd almost guaranteed. perhaps 25k as a long shot. No dollars again. MFC should be screaming and in return getting something
  6. I have no idea if Jackson needs a rest but assuming he does is Weid up to replacing him around the ground? If not I think I'd prefer another forward/mid before Daw. What a shame no VFL today
  7. It's much easier following Melbourne Storm
  8. 1 v 17 yep thanks Dees
  9. NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
  10. remind me who was on Lewis ?
  11. mmmmmmmmmmmmm not great by any means
  12. how do you dominate and go backwards on the scoreboard =MFC
  13. come on... 3 more goals and it's game over ... o well that lasted well
  14. Our man Smith is last man standing in the backline
  15. come on dees.. let's end this by half time for once
  16. let's hope they don't find form next week
  17. Tiges without Dusty = Ninthdom or worse
  18. Is he still injured. The original report was a mild strain and the rest was precautionary. Given no VFL tomorrow I suppose we will never know.
  19. With 19 cases today hard to see this being lifted on Tuesday. Will go the rest of next week at least is my guess. What a mess.
  20. cannot see that happening....even if we are no crowds
  21. it is now
  22. He's calling it from Melbourne off the television so a little slack is deserved.
  23. Other than the kick to Chol Dusty has had no influence. Lynch has been hardly sighted. Daniher going for the easy ball out the back. Hard to see Richmond hanging on but it's entertaining with lots of corridor play. Go Tiges..........
  24. well done but we're still around 10th on the membership lists and around 7th of the ten Melbourne based clubs. It will be a hard task to climb the ladder. Looking at the numbers from Big Footy We should easily stay in front of the Saints next year and probably the Dogs who are 5k behind us. The teams within striking distance are Geelong, Hawthorn and to a lesser extent Essendon. Carlton's figure strike me as rubbery so they could be within range. North have 45k members which is more than we had in 2020. https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/2021-afl-membership-tracker-figures.1259510/
