Was there a drink thrown on Merrett during the boundary side scuffle with Nic Nat? The replay showed liquid being sprayed all over the nearest camera. On the game itself, Nic Nat’s tackling was scary at times. Not sure how the Eagles ended up 5th, there really isn’t a weakness in that team.

Some serious beast mode by Nic Nat tonight.

Throw in the underrated Jamie Cripps as well mono, a real goal poacher. Massive headaches for defences.

Bills, Rams, Chiefs

Interesting to read a couple of the youngsters are compared to a couple of our players. Hayden Young plays like Salem and Sam Flanders plays like Petracca. To those with expertise in the upcoming draft, would that be an accurate assessment on those 2 players?

Not a bad place to visit is the Hawks BF board. Apparently Patton has trimmed down from 108kg to 97kg, he’s 5cm taller than Ruff and has a reach 15cm longer. I can’t find the Petracca bit though.

Viney is on a belated honeymoon @Sir Why You Little. Now is probably the best time for the both of them to enjoy some time together.

Can we share the love please? Article sounds interesting, providing it doesn’t mention we’re trading someone out.

Yes, you did mention it at the top of the thread. I hope we politely refused and pointed them toward the closest surf beach.

And finals haven’t even started yet.....Harmes is next I’m guessing.

Does this mean Gus is staying put?

He’s not just a battering ram!

Laird would be the first player I’d take from the Crows if it was at all possible. Jetta and Hibbo aren’t getting younger and he would be perfect back there next to his old mate Lever and May for the next 5 years.

Yes

Yes, fair point @Macca. Respect.

Bugger, Roughy would have been a great help to us. He might have a monumental task at Moorabbin managing the list though, they are linked to so many players this off-season they could field 2 AFL teams next year.

Interesting you bring up the absence of runners RM. I remember reading the below article prior to Round 1 about ‘Upskilling’ our playing group and especially our leaders. It all sounded good at the time, but it looks like the added responsibility wasn’t handled well at all amongst other issues. https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2019-03-14/runner-restrictions-a-chance-to-upskill-jones

That’s the thing Wise, we wouldn’t know if Richmond are willing to let him go. They have fierce competition for the small forward position and it’s working for them at the moment. Sounds like he definitely put his hand up today to get back in and feature in finals. A few Richmond fans at work rate him highly and don’t want to lose him. In terms of his value, I wouldn’t have a clue to be honest, others are much better judges than me on here.

Anyone know the contract status of Dan Butler? A few on here seem keen to get him over to us. He kicked 4 second half goals today for Richmond in their VFL Qualifing final against Essendon. Best part about that was Essendon giving up a 40pt 3 quarter time lead and losing by 2 points.

O Mac’s first AFL goal should make the Top 10. Lovely sidestep and left foot snap. Probably the most watched clip of the year, for me anyway, up there with the last 30-40 seconds of the victory against Suns.

Some classic commentary. The “sit down Daics”, “ I can’t, I’ve got cramp” still makes me laugh.

The won’t be offering priority national draft assistance gets me, what’s Purple on about? Did we disclose that half the team wants out or something?
