WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BRAYDON PREUSS
I have backed Tyson. But after the prelim deesaster, Tyson for Preuss sounds like a fair deal.

TAC Cup Finals 2018
Campbell Hustwaite has had an outstanding year. Captaincy has elevated his play. Positives is his strong contested play, run and discipline. Disposal needs improvement so may miss getting drafted if recruiting think he cannot be improved. But realistically he is a definite rookie chance. Nick Smith Swans champ had same issue but has corrected to simply kick the footy without pinpointed style.

Welcome to Demonland Toby Bedford
Simply yes. Get Toby Bedford

Electrifying Aboriginal forwards
Agreed we LACK real crumbing forwards. Need for this in case Hogan tmcd Weid fail on a day. 1- Still hope for Jeffy Garlett 2- Toby Bedford should come in as next generation pick. Starred for the Stingrays. 3- rookie draft may present an opportunity for a gem Spargo is not the answer. Not great pace. Smart but goal kicking is poor. Tackling 50/50 at best

The Other Preliminary Final
Sidebottom is hard to tag. Pla Sidebottom is hard to tag. Played more as a half back/wing role. I think they’ll play Pendlebury/Adams/Greenwood in the centre bounces. Greenwood is shutting down everyone right now. Treloar rotates in. Yes Harmes could tag Sidebottom but we might use Melksham as an option. Don’t discount Pendlebury. He can destroy you still with effective clearance footy.

Jeremy Finlayson
Yes if he was free Giants will want a trade but I think we’re all ok for tall backs without paying for one

GF Ballot Barcode
Discussed last night. If 45000 public seats available, then for example Tigers get 30000 and Demons get 15000. That’s only 1/3rd of our members. GF seats for the heart and soul supporter is really difficult unless you look to spend $1000+ on a membership. I might do that next year so I can see us go back to back !!!!!

Welcome to Demonland: Bayley Fritsch
Fritsch should play for Casey in the Gf. Mfc playing so he automatically should be eligible. Fritsch has mates at Casey and it would be still an amazing experience. I thought he was playing ok to keep his place. Tough call. But Goody knows best

Classy wingman. Was to be part of Barassi resurgence. Tough times. Very sad news.

All done. I’ll miss the long queues and the hot thermos of coffee to get through the night. (Year 2000)

Dom Tyson - what's wrong?
Tyson is a very handy 5th midfielder. Likely to start of the bench. Definitely looks more polished when he takes first options. If he holds it too long, he gets caught.

Delisting, Trade and FA discussion 2018
I agree with the call for pace. Don’t dismiss skills. Transition of the footy is essential win the footy (tackle smother defend chase pressure contested) transition the footy (skills pace structure) kick accurately (take chances. Setup to score. Fwd 50 pressure)

Roaming Brian - Melbourne vs Hawthorn, Semi Final
Roaming Brian two weeks in a row. Awesome. The access to players was sensational We didn’t get the Friday nights this year. Watch out 2019 fixtures for 4-5 Friday nights surely. We are the highest scoring entertainment team.
