It appears they're getting him set to play the forward/second ruck role, so it's probably related.

Not sure if you heard but the club regarded last week as round 1.

That'll help the 35k target... I expect us to drop to 25k by next week after that [censored]

We are a rabble

Vine's worst game?

Bail drops an absolute sitter under no pressure, turnover eventually results in a shot at goal

What the [censored] Viney

Not like him to be pulling out of contests like that

I am absolutely giving it to him over the fence, the [censored].

Umpires gifting these cheating pricks frees already

I'm not sure who is reporting that he's on 3 strikes now but this has nothing to do with that policy. This is a banned substance not an illicit/recreational one. There are no strikes when it comes to banned substances - take one on the list and you're probably gone.

We will lose this. Unbelievable.

We're already ahead in the banner contest this year, doggies didn't bother with one today.

It's at least a 40-50kph wind going straight across the ground, it probably won't favour an end but it's going to make things easy.

Hogan is playing today - just confirmed with one of the staff.

The surface is looking good. I'm in the ground already. If anyone is here early keep an eye out for one of our own umpiring the AFL 9's pre-game entertainment. It's windy AF too, worse than it was at home. Expect the majority of the play to be on the opposite side to the cameras/grandstand, although if you sit on that side you'll have the sun in your eyes. Doesn't look like the players are here yet, I managed to sneak down to the rooms but there were only a few trainers down there.

It's a windy day today so expect plenty of skill errors. The ground is notoriously unprotected from the wind so it's certainly going to be a challenge for the players.

It's on the MFC website - no need for AFL live pass today.

As per the MCG, I don't think you have to buy a ticket for kids under 6.

There are 29 players named, we played with 26 last week.

Hogan still in the squad - interesting.

Not a bad hit out. Howe to replace Grimes, Viney & Vince to replace Bail and Matt Jones and we're a few percentage points better.

Does that game start at 4:10pm? The AFL website have it as 4:10pm EST.

Why would it be? He didn't mention Howe at all.
