What

I feel sorry for the Pies players in two weeks time.

According to that moron Brad Scot, people are 'cowards' for calling out Lindsay Thomas for playing for free kicks. Cant stand Scott, he regularly uses hyperbole and passive aggressive attacks every single week for the smallest of issues. The irony is that he is the coward, nobody else. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/more-news/lindsay-thomas-draws-criticism-for-drawing-high-contact-free-kicks/news-story/4524389fc7155648048ba5dda5a3b022

Are you going around to all the team forums defending him? Just so you know, supporters from all teams think he is a joke. Cheers.

Geez we had 14 players under 50 games compared to their 8. And yes we were younger and more inexperienced. Amazing stuff.

Petracca leads the MFC in Goal Assists per game and Inside 50's per game. What an impact and he hasnt even warmed up yet.

I think the Lions were more inexperienced than us, would like to see the stats for them. Would be interesting.

Great first impression from the debutante. Not.

To avoid the Herald Sun paywall just paste the article title into Google and you can get in through there http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/teams/melbourne/clayton-oliver-has-all-the-hallmarks-of-a-future-champion-just-five-games-into-his-career/news-story/4795d46a0eb940c6b84f4bd039f76686

Jeremy Howes doing really well at the Pies in his 'defined role' with their 'great young list' 12 possies a game, 4 marks a game 3 goas, 1 behind total 84% time spent on ground Absolute gun he is

Yup, ,sucks to lose but we will have days like today while we are this inexperienced. On the flip side we will also roll some good teams this season.

Have to agree with this, the Melkshake would be in the team now if available. Hes gonna have to work his ass off to get a gig Round 1, 2017 though.

Josh Mahoney is a legend, I assume he engineered the trade that moved us up to pick 3 to get Clayton Olkiver while also getting pick 7 and Weidemann The gamble to trade away our first rounder this season looks like it will pay off huge if we keep playing this well. Even if we finish 10th that equates to pick 9, and Weidemann is already showing in the VFL he is going to be a player.

Not one iota of turmoil or even any murmurings of it since Roos and PJ took over operations. The new board must be doing a fine job too. In fact I cant even name one person on the current MFC board which is a very good thing in my opinion.

He will take a part time role as advisor to recruiting/drafting/development

Jack wasnt the only one getting stuck into Rance and making him look like the coward he is

Welcome to the club Alex Coward Rance

Two praha, go dees

And nobody would be happier about that than Jonesy himself.

One of the best debuts by a first year teenager Ive seen, mauybe the best since Judds debut.

Parish is Essendrugs Toumpas That club is going to get hit with the karma bus in every possible way

Which is the player I have compared him to.... right down to the carefree attitude and pure arrogance of knowing how good they are. Man if he plays like Jaka.... salivating at the prospect.

Oh no.. the kiss of death has spoken http://www.sen.com.au/news/03-16/robbo-raves-about-oliver-doubts-tom-boyd#fyKPWCgIU4IIQA65.97

Sorry just had to pinch myself that we have both Oliver and Brayshaw on our list.

what a gun lol Playing round 1 guaranteed
