MO FINE

Nice segue on the subject of sausage rolls. And ... on the subject of stopping them, May’s injury seems to be a worry. Did anyone hear Garry Lyon refer to his injury on radio during the week?

I would like to see Bedford get a chance as a small forward, not at the expense of Pickett but instead of Spargo so we can compare where these two are at.

What happened to Ben Sokol?

As the pre season continues we are still not seeing much of Kade Kolodjashnij and with every passing week, the doubt about his future must grow. Does anyone know what stage he’s at?

It looks like we did well out of picking up Tomlinson as a free agent. According to the Herald Sun, Melbourne is getting a draft pick as well ?

Our kicking for goal was appalling in most games but more so in the final quarters of each of them. I would like to see the stats for goals for and against in the final quarters of each match. I think this can be explained by lack of player depth, fitness and tiredness physically and mentally. Something that needs to be addressed over the summer.

North Melbourne 9.2.56 defeated Melbourne 4.10.34 Same story as last year and the year before. Can’t kick straight.

I concur. With Gawn & Preuss as our main men in the ruck and Bradke being developed, there’s not much room for Williams. A more mature ruckman as a back up makes more sense.

I wonder if Josh Mahoney is waiting for someone to give him a bell any time soon?

There were a lot of things I couldn’t see happening a week ago that are now getting close to reality. Dont jump at conclusions in this game.

I think that’s going to happen.

Disappointed to wake up this morning only to discover that the Vics were beaten by the All Stars. AFL greats re-live their glory days as All Stars defeat Victoria in the EJ Whitten Legends Game at Adelaide Oval The highlight must surely have been Shaun Smith playing against Joel Smith but I wonder how the younger Smith is going to manage the task of flying home from Adelaide in time to make it to the Casey game?

No love for Declan Keilty K C?

On that basis, we had better take advantage of home ground advantage against Sydney & GWS because we won’t get much help from the umpires in Perth.

Good to see Mitch White back after a long period with injury.

Doesn’t rule him out for this week against the Pies, surely?

Pity they couldn’t work that out 12 months ago.

Sorry but the rules have changed and we're taking in DH's these days.

"I'm cooked."

Does player X wear the number 10?
