A Day at the Races
Thanks for posting Biff, been extremely busy with work and haven’t seen a lot of racing the last few weeks. Wow....that was a spectacular win. That was her last ever start?

Alex Rance Retires
They just showed bits of his statement on the TV LDC. He feels it’s the right time to put more energy into other areas of his life that need it such as, spiritual growth, family and friends. It will be interesting to see how much of an impact his absence will have. Yes, they did win the flag without him playing but he was still involved as a leader at the club and putting work into their VFL team.

TRAINING: Friday 13th December 2019
Thanks to all for your efforts on observing training. There’s been a good variety of reporting with great depth leading into Christmas. If our rehab group can be counted on one hand by March we should be doing cartwheels. All we want is a chance to attack the season with a near full list.

Very tough assignment, an attempt without Super Dusty and I just don’t like Dangerfield. B: Laird, Andrews, Lloyd HB: Stewart, J McGovern, Sicily C - Sidebottom, Bontempelli, Polec HF: Tippa, Membrey, Sexton FF: Greene, Lynch, R Gray. R: Gawn, Cripps, Fyfe.

Captaincy 2020
Funnily enough I agree with Dal Santo. Could be in the minority but I’ve felt unsure for a while about Max being solo captain. Max is a marvel captain or not. Personally, I’d like to see them back Jack in as the solo captain for next year and stop the co-captain model and if they don’t, Max is a ready made replacement. I keep going back to the 2018 Elimination and Semi where Viney was just outstanding after missing a chunk of football. My belief is he can get back to that. Either way, I feel we are in a good position leadership wise for 2020. Get May, T Mac and Lever out there full time and the support crew looks good.

Dees Slide in Champion Data 2020 Rankings
We don’t need to worry DL, Cornes has named the 6 teams that can win it and we are not one of them.

TRAINING: Wednesday 4th December 2019
I thought Preuss had big thighs but Trac’s look seriously powerful in the pic earlier. It’s very hard not to get excited about Trac for 2020. Thanks to all for the quality reporting.

Welcome to Demonland: Trent Rivers
There’s a nice little clip which I’m having trouble posting here for some reason on the club’s social pages of Trent and his family reacting to his name being called out. Judging by his reaction it took a while to sink in he’s now an AFL player. The best reaction came from the family dog, thought it was going for a walk.

Half-Time breaks
Apparently the proposal has widespread support from clubs and players. As a fan, I don’t like it at all. Some people want to go for a smoke, some need food and try taking 3 kids to the loo and not missing any action. You will be hearing a lot more of “ Down in front.” They could ask the people every now and then about something like this you know. If they prefer less cool down time just place high nets around the boundary line to eliminate throw-ins.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
Exciting highlight package. Welcome Luke. Wanted to see Bennell in the vacant 24 jumper initially, but with LJ as initials and seeing Jackson out of the goal square the 24 would look good on him.
