Half-Time breaks
Apparently the proposal has widespread support from clubs and players. As a fan, I donโt 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 โ Down in front.โ 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.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
Bit of humour from Kozzie too, running to get the handball from his teammate in that hit clip. These young hopefuls get judged before they even play a game, what a thrill it must be for player and family. Welcome Pickett.

Nearest the Pin
Might as well play along. Jackson Pickett Hugo Ralphsmith, for the name alone.

Failing to understand why we arenโt told which player has hurt his shoulder.

Demons Decade Quiz
Thanks 39. I was trying to remember if it was Hannan or Trac that put us in front but youโre spot on. We never actually trailed in the last quarter.

Demons Decade Quiz
8/10. Tried to be a smart alec by not choosing Watts for kicking the winning goal in the QB clash. Thought it was another trick question like the top half question as he kicked the sealer. Was trying to remember our player that kicked the go ahead goal. The 186 question should have a pass option.

Injury List 2020
The alleged injury to May doesnโt appear to be much of a news story. Possibly, just a โprecautionโ.

The Soccer thread
Same Layz, i honestly didnโt think they would go down this path. Only late last night whilst flicking through some online news I came across a headline which read something like โMan U waiting for Poch sackingโ and I thought more clickbait , then I read the news this morning.

Poch Sacked ? Canโt post links for some reason. Gary Lineker having a dig at Spurs on Twitter by saying good luck in finding someone better. Where to now?

TRAINING: Monday 18th November 2019
Does anyone know the extent of Spargoโs injury? From memory he suffered some kind of knock in the leg last week during a session and now weโre told heโs in a moon boot. Hopefully itโs a minor one, unlucky if he misses a fair chunk of the preseason just when he would be looking to start strong for a bounce back season.

The Rise of Tracc
Another Data Game video on the AFL website this morning giving him some more credit for his very good year. Good to see Trac getting some credit on here too. Interestingly, the Champion Data person on the video (Daniel Hoyne I believe) thinks Trac should have been in discussions for the AA squad with his numbers. Elite in 3 categories and Above Average In 2 as a general forward. Itโs because of our season he probably wasnโt discussed. He can take a lot of confidence into next year and heโs on top of my list for a player to watch.

Ranked 8th Best List for 2020
I guess he rates Grundy better than Max. Pffft!

Jayden Hunt - forward or back
Having a look again at some of his highlights in 2016-17, he was breathtaking at times as a dashing half-back flanker. Some great running goals and would lower eyes hitting teammates. Hasnโt been the same since end of 2017 but his 2019 was good as a forward option. Iโd use him as a forward again to start next season. In a year where it was plain horrible for our forward line he acquitted himself well I thought. Iโm still curious as to why he got dropped for the Sydney game. I donโt think he was as bad as some say when shifted back against Richmond and Coll. He did a very good job on Rioli and the following week everyone was lost at sea against the Pies in the Mihocek show.

Out of Contract Players 2020
Multiple clubs enquired about Petracca this year but there wasn't any interest from the 23-year-old or the Demons in moving him. The above is from an AFL.com article about our clubโs most intriguing unsigned player for 2020. Enquiring doesnโt necessarily mean teams made a play for Trac, there was talk on here the Cats were interested, just wondering if anyone knows which other clubs enquired. In the current AFL landscape players are being courted well in advance of a contract expiring. To me heโs the priority signature for next year. He was very good in 19 and can elevate his game even further, would love to see him locked up well before teams come seriously knocking on our door. From a few training sessions Iโve seen in the last 12 months or so where you are actually close up Iโm still amazed at Tracโs core power and strength.

First Injury of the Preseason
Curious, how many on here are moving their little finger around right now to position it like that? I would have fainted long before snapping a pic if my pinky looked like that. Nasty!

Monkey Business
Must admit, fantastic goal by the keeper. Thatโs the beauty of sport though Wadda....the unexpected and we know the risks if we take a punt. Iโve backed AC many times since that goal and Iโve been on the receiving end of some lucky finishes, one as recently as mid week. Juventus scored a very late winner in Champs league for a winning multi. Good luck overnight all, my odds were $10.20 for a buck.
