Billy Stretch Appreciation Thread
With due respect this is a highly speculative scenario based on zero internal knowledge of what if naything was said and it's impact on Petracca.

Billy Stretch Appreciation Thread
I reckon Stretch has been building over the past month and could be a very good player for us with some continuity. His confidence is building and I think will have a breakput game very soon.

Round 10 Non MFC Games
What's up with Ablett, it's like after the first one he's got a taste for it - he's got the bloodlust.

Brad Scott sacked
With due respect you are not Brad Scott and his facial expressions alone would pay his wage three fold

Brad Scott sacked
I'd get him as a supporting act to react to umpiring decisions in the box and discuss missed frees during press conferences.

In fairness we spent that long without playing finals and appointed Neeld. Glass houses.

PREGAME: Rd 10 vs GWS Giants
Tactical genius

PREGAME: Rd 10 vs GWS Giants
No way Harmes is playing for Casey. I reckon Stretch and Fritch will both play for Melbourne on Sunday as well.

Injury List - Season 2019
In particular I like the rebranding of 4-6 weeks to 4-5 weeks. 4-6 had become toxic and am hoping the rebrand works and if it doesn't I'll blame Gary Pert.

Goody Presser (22/5) - Left early as unwell
Just saw this mornings presser from Goody and glad he's alright. Was good to hear Troy Chaplin speak yesterday, he come across very well.

This has Gary Pert's grubby fingers all over it.

Demons Grand Plan for Yarra Park Training HQ
I have an alternative proposal that would be perfect. Why don't we build an exact replica of the MCG directly under the MCG. The land is not being used for any purpose and as Demons what better place to raise hell than under ground. I bet we could borrow some of the giant bores that are being used to dig the tunnels for the new train line to hollow out under the G and save on costs. We could even install an elevator directly up to our admin in the MCG. #Winning

Umpires hate Melbourne
Also, apparently number 6 umpire called Tim Smith a weak c$&t.

Umpires hate Melbourne
While I have no sources to speak of either inside or outside the club, I have it on good authority that as we speak Perty, Mahn's and Toddy are planning to visit a number of AFL and senior umpiring figures to let them know that t here is a new dog in town "Perty" and that they had best learn their place or else sleep with the fishies. On a side note, a couple of minutes before the players run up the race to go through the banner we should do he warriors chant - "Warriors, warriors, come out to pla-ay". The club could play it over the speakers, it would be awesome.

Concerned about Jack
You sir are a very limited poster. Jack is building nicely and I'm confident he will absolutely dominate games in the back half of this season.
-
Goal kicking - is it the yips or something deeper
I put it solely down to the players not attending the 2017 camp.
-
Concerned about Jack
Jack will be fine, I reckon he's learned to temper his intensity while his body and conditioning improve and we will see him dominating games in the back half of the year.

Not sticking up for Max
There is merit in physically dominating our opponent in general play and also at moments like this we need to be assertive in dealing with behavior such as Vardy's. It's not acceptable to give away a free but we can certainly get up in his face and dare him to back down or escalate.

It's ibviously because we didn't review last years prelim final loss.

Oskar Baker
Oskar showing alot. With Melky out for at least the next month I can see Oskar getting a good run at it in the middle and up forward.

Oskar Baker
Saw him speak on the club website and he's got some real conviction, a quiet confidence, that makes me comfortable he will thrive on the big stage. Similare to Hore in that way.

Changes vs West Coast
Next thing people on here will complain that its because the players didn't review the game. I reckon we will do something innovative, like build a human triangle in front of goal.
