POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Fremantle
Some random comments in no order Fremantle were very good. They strangled us. Jackson. has a lot to learn in the way of ruck craft. Thought he was shown up last week by the North combo & today he was horrible. Think we all, me included, forget how young he is. Key forwards. Weid & Brown were both horrible but Brown has the runs on the board. Weid does not impose himself on the contest and after today I officially say he won’t make it. Missing three key players across three lines cooked us (Tmac, Langdon, May). Langdon is just as important as May. Rivers & Bowey both made inexperienced errors - another reminder that really, they’re just starting out. not defending Dunstan game, it’s wasn’t good, but I’m amazed at the ppl who are shocked at his disposal. We all knew it was trash when we recruited him. don’t expect we’ll ever see Trac play a game that bad ever again saw Clarry fumble several times when that happens you know you’re cooked

My 3 word player analysis v Nth Melbourne
Ooops, Who the big oaf on Brown? I didn’t have a record to check & know none of the North players.

My 3 word player analysis v Nth Melbourne
Generous assessment of Gawn, today was not his best. McKay had the strength to negate Brown’s height advantage.

What They Are Saying at Arden Street
I get what you’re saying, I’ve got no sympathy for Essendon or WCE, and enjoyed Carlton being trash but for North, who are a small club with a small supporter base, I’ve got more empathy.

What They Are Saying at Arden Street
I empathise with North and their supporters. We've been in the exact same boat, just that our plan to get out of trouble has worked.

MFC Rebranding for Indigenous Round
Love this initiative and love that Matthew Whelan was so involved. Anyone who doesn’t like the jumper design has to do tackle work with Wheels 😂

POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
I’m going to have nightmares about our forward 50 entries. Second week in a row that they’ve been horrible. They played an extra man and we didn’t cope with it.

TEAMS: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
I'm wary of them. We played horribly against them last year and Breust and Gunston have killed us for well over a decade. And if it rains all day tomorrow who knows what could happen.

NON-MFC: Round 6, 2022
Collingwood kicking 15.3 is really annoying

POSTGAME: Rd 05 vs GWS
How good was it seeing Petty in that backline? Also loved Maysie’s interview on 7. Nice to know my imaginary boyfriend can string a sentence together 😂

Gil McLachlan Stepping Down
Heard Gillon is retiring to spend more time with his polo ponies 😁

NON-MFC: Round 4, 2022
I don’t disagree with that assessment but how insane is the hype/pressure on these kids. The media had gone mental with the hype on JUH before he’d even played a senior game. They have no time to develop.

AFLW GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Adelaide
Are we sure Harris and Weed aren’t related. Second efforts don’t seem to be their thing.

CHANGES: Rd 05 vs GWS
Agree, Spargo has been average. I’d drop him before Pickett
-
Angus Brayshaw
Possibly a silly question - other than Jon Ralph reporting it, has anyone heard anything genuine about Brayshaw thinking he should be playing in the midfield? The media keep reviving this line (feel like it’s been floating around since at least 2020) but is it anywhere near correct?

POSTGAME: Rd 02 vs Gold Coast
Can’t wait for Viney’s little girl to be a father/daughter pick. Don’t think the AFLW would be ready for it 😁

Bevo unleashes on Tom Morris
It was an embarrassing performance. Beveridge came off as a petulant sook. To make the mental health argument was pretty poor. If he was annoyed with Morris he should’ve discussed it in private.

I've said this before. Clarry is VB, Trac is craft beer. You need both for an awesome party 😁

Premiership Cup Tour
The photo was circa 1987/88, in the old red seats area. My Dad had a mate who was a sports photographer and he yelled up from the boundary for us to stand up and take a photo. I was mortified because the entire section turned around to stare at us. Which is the reason for the grumpy face 😁

Premiership Cup Tour
I visited the Sports Museum today. Had to queue for about 40minutes to get the photo but it was well worth it. We went full footy nuff 😂

COVID & AFL 2021
Who remembers the scene in Trainspotting where Begbie lectures Renton about using heroin? ‘No wey would I poison my body with that [censored]. All they [censored] chemicals’ (while smashing a scotch & sucking on a dury). That’s what these anti-vax types sound like when they say they don’t trust what’s in the vaccine.

Burgess reveals secret to Dees' incredible injury-free run
Jofra Archer is a good example of how the small workload/short spells can really backfire. He wasn't used to big workloads and when he got loaded up in tests he broke down.

Hibberd Signs On for 2022
Halfway through the last quarter I actually said "I reckon Hibberd will retire after this". I wouldn't be surprised if he did, but happy for him to sign on for another year.

Trac was in full berserker mode after that goal 😂
