Same. I was so frustrated with how we’d played & just couldn’t handle the thought of watching happy Carlton supporters. Footy karma got me though 😂

Since we're talking about it, what about the captain after next? Petty?

Oh god no, I hate watching on TV, nothing worse. I feel much more in control at the ground, you can see the mistakes coming 😄

I've already had a sulk about the AFL Members being sold out. Could only get seats on level 4 🤢

Why does everyone keep using logic on me? I want to be able to hate Geelong in demented peace 😁

Very good point...but it's a rational one, and I'm not rational when it comes to MFC 😄

That the Away fans are allocated such a tiny amount of seats is extremely annoying as it's totally counter to the argument that the 'big' clubs shouldn't play down there because the ground doesnt have the capacity. There will never be enough seats for the Away side so it doesnt matter if Collingwood or North Melbourne play down there. And yet it's always the same group of Melbourne-based clubs who are forced to play there.

At half time a bloke four rows in front of me power spewed like I’ve never seen. It was a preview of the result 😂 Thought Gawn had a very average night & Jackson a shocker. Which equaled English dominating. The short break off the Alice trip didn’t help, in the last we struggled to get enough men to match them around the contests, felt like they always had one extra. Our second tier blokes were not good. Not sure why we’re complaining about the umpires, I was sitting on the Footscray wing & according to those specimens they were being robbed 😂

The problem is that 7’s marquee caller, Brian Taylor, is awful. He doesn’t know the rules or the players. And he ain’t half as smart or as funny as he thinks he is.

I appreciate the six goals in the GF and agree that he's a very good player. But that doesnt mean i love him. You think all the North fans loved Brett Allison? All Essendon fans love Blake Caracella? Personally I think it's the selfishness that stops him from being an excellent player. But I'm not on the coaching panel, I'm one muppet on a MFC forum 😁

Fritsch is a hard player to love and this is one of the big reasons why. And yes, I'm well aware of how valuable he is, but he's never going to be a favourite of mine.

Bittersweet but it's good to know Noel saw the 2021 Premiership.

That's one way of looking at it, and Walker's not unredeemable. But you could also argue that it's not the job of our Indigenous players (or any Indigenous people) to have to do that education work. This is only my opinion, so it doesn't count for much, but I would be disappointed if the footy club, who has done so much good work in this area, was willing to overlook Walker's indiscretions.

On the fitness point - I keep forgetting that we were back to pre-season training a month later than the previous season. That has to have an impact.

Very generous towards May

The problem is it's either feast or famine - there's no grey. Our forward line is either amazing or it doesnt work at all (See the Queen's Birthday game). Both types of conversion are an issue; inside 50>marks and set shots>goals. There was that nightmare moment in the Q3 of the grand final, Bont had kicked that goal and we were 5.10 and I thought 'we've been horribly inaccurate all year and it's about to bite us'. Thank god the tide turned.

I fully endorse this level of irrational crazy

Gus can be very casual with some of his kicks. Especially when he’s on his left.

Not sure if this has already been mentioned but the umpiring was decent. They let the play go and didn't pay too many technical/soft stuff. Yes there were some decisions missed and I was spewing on the three frees paid to Daniher but overall, that's the umpiring we want.

Back 6 looked good Viney was a monster Credit to Dogga for a great ruck performance Our 2nd tier guys really lifted Clarry is next level

Taking a mature view - anyone but Carlton

Not a go at you but pretty sure Darcy Moore hasn’t faced sexual assaults charges. They’re two different cats.

Steven May has only held the title ‘Australia’s Dumbest Footballer’ for a week & in comes Bazlenka to steal it 😂

I'm not saying it's time to panic but I am saying the uneasy spirit of Norm Smith has awoken and we're doomed for another 57 years 😁

Got mine todays and it’s fantastic quality. Like you I was expecting the standard junk.
