I think the club’s communications in terms of injuries has been good so far this preseason od. They were quick to inform us on Viney, Brown and Weid. Not sure when the Melksham injury occurred but the club might still be assessing the damage before informing us. I’m more annoyed at the tweet, it only tells us Melksham has suffered a set back/injury, nothing else. If Browne had more info why not state that also.

Well, still waiting to hear from any source what the damage is. If it’s your standard hammie, he might miss the first two rounds max as we’re still a month away. I was also disappointed with Jake especially defensively last season, but he is one of our better kicks forward of centre and think he can still have a positive impact for us this season.

Is this a standard pop or one of those long term ones?

There’s a few wins in the last 30 years that stand out and I revisit, but I’d have to say the last quarter of the qualifying final against Carlton in 2000 gave me the biggest buzz at a game that I can remember. For individual brilliance, Wiz’s 9 goal second half blitz against the Pies also in 2000 has the most views here I’d say.

Come on, bounce that ball already! I know we have a few injuries but this time of year is when most households are excited and hanging to watch their team.

That’s good news P2J, but to some....

Have to feel for Shae Sloane, was browsing the club site only to read she ruptured her left ACL this time at training over the weekend.

I was reading an article on the AFLW site a short time ago and the details were in there.

Yes, It’s listed as a Seven game.

The full fixture for Round 4 was released over the weekend I believe od. We have the Dogs away on Sunday arvo (3:10pm), ticketing details for Victorian matches haven’t been released as yet for obvious reasons.

For SEN listeners, Alan Richardson will be on with Garry and Tim this morning. Didn’t quite catch what time exactly, I’m sure they will talk about Majak. I also read on the B Brown thread the HS wrote Brown is out for several months, maybe Richo can tell us that’s a typo and that’s not the case. If anyone catches the interview an update would be appreciated, TIA.

Absolutely, best game I have seen and I think many neutrals would also agree. Highly entertaining Saturday night viewing, that game warranted a crowd in attendance. It was that bloody good. From a free flowing and attacking game in the first half from us, to then having to scrap and fight for every contest because a quality opposition is coming at you hard, shows a mental maturity in this group led by Daisy of course when the game was on the line. It was a proud night for the MFC.

Thought Daisy had some huge moments in critical contests that quarter. Good on ya Dees, super win and Shelley Scott no problem slotting it after the siren.

Backline reading North’s kicks well, backing themselves and playing in front. Some of the movement has been first class and that was a very exciting quarter to watch.

This is good footy, keep it up Dees.

Glad we got a goal for all our hard work. Just need to cut out silly errors, uncharacteristic by Paxman.

G’day fellas. Lockdown viewing is back. I’m liking Hamlet Von Snitzel (6) Race 4 Doomben today at $5.50. Won its two trials impressively without blinkers on, on debut a few weeks ago they chose to run it with blinkers and ran a solid third by 0.8 lengths. Blinkers are off today and hopefully it has learnt a thing or two since debut.

Yes, haven’t seen a live win for nearly two years, not that we are a certainty but still. Glad at least some supporters got to witness a live win last season. I’ve missed going to the footy and having a couple of beers with my footy mate.

Oh come on.....very disappointing for Sam and us. Just want to scream.

Just had a look at the training gallery, main takeaway - Clarry and maybe J Smith the only players taped up.

Too Buccan good he is Tom Brady. Well done Tampa and cheers to @Maccafor running the comps. Good entertainment.

Chiefs 1-6

Not sure if T Mac on the wing will work or not, but maybe trying him on the wing has to do with endurance. He looks a lot leaner. Heard on radio with less rotations this season you will need blokes on the wings that can run all day and it’s one position you might have to leave out there longer.

Far out, just when you start getting excited for the start of the season, something like this pops up and brings the mood back down. Persistent swelling throughout preseason? Work your magic Doc Feller.

I thought seeing Jack in one of the training clips today doing the rope exercise in the gym a couple of days after surgery was a positive in terms of a quick recovery. That’s the way I’ll look at it until otherwise.
