We have four clubs equal or within a game of us. At present we have a percentage gap on these clubs but one 30 plus point defeat seriously erodes that percentage. I think we will make it but what should have been a pleasurable run home for supporters will be the usual stress ball that seems to go hand in hand with being an MFC supporter

I agree but can we afford a $700k insurance policy. The fact is that Gawn goes when he wants to as the club owes him so much otherwise ............ thanks for the face palm Drysdale Demon but why do you think the Grundy/Gawn combo will be any better next year? The football world wondered how the combo would work as did many on this site. Other commentators said we had too much of our salary cap invested in the ruck dept. These are the kind of discussions we need to have.

Needs another thread but you have to ask if we should trade Grundy in the off season. Given the Collingwood supplement we could probably break even on trade value. This would allow us to buy in a cheap back up ruck and put the Grundy savings into another recruit.(perhaps a KPF) We just have too much invested in our ruck combo given their return. No real signs of it turning around.

He was on the market at the end of 2022 and no takers

JVR for Smith Unfortunately there's no stand out small forward at Casey for Chandler. AMW had a good game today but has no solid bank of form. Melksham did little in conditions that should have suited him Bowey forward and Howes in down back if you want to be adventurous Forgot Fritsch' injury... Smith or Schache (not sure)

At least they could have a few haunches roasting on a spit for you

In centre corridor Out Boundary

Let's go listen to this week's excuses but the reality is that we have not been going well for quite a while

But can we kick away ??

A goal from a centre clearance... How unusual

Was looking at the ladder last night and that's a possibility but I think we stay in the 8

To think .. last year we were most vulnerable when we were 26 points ahead

well bye bye top 4

And yet another... not 6 points

Rivers is not a great shot on goal

4 non goals to Trac One could cry

Come on this is joke territory May go and watch an old TV movie

Another one of those 6 pointers Wonder how you kick those

Gotta love that scoreline 1 goal 5 behinds !!! It's a real trend unfortunately

marvellous what a goal can do... you even get 6 points for it

Getting seriously tired of the inaccuracy

A lot of the crowd are, I think bussed in from surrounding areas. I assume the weather warnings put a stop to that this year

Thought Jefferson was more than ok today at this level. Tracking nicely for a strong VFL season for the first half of 2024. The rest is up to him

JVR sure is an accurate kick !

Giants are only one game behind Casey on the AFL ladder This has been abysmal by them
