  1. Not sure. It’s part of the 5 talking points article on the MFC website.
  2. Apologies if this has been mentioned already but did anyone catch the replay of this? Match review officer Michael Christian will monitor the down the ground replay closely on Monday after Jesse Hogan's jumper punch on Lachie Neale behind play in the first term. It left Neale gasping for air
  3. Harmes is coming along nicely I feel. Was switched to half back and provided some dash and nice to finally see someone nail a long running goal.
  4. 18 players hit the scoreboard tonight. These four didn’t. Out: OMac, Jetta, J Smith. Frost
  5. 6. Oliver 5. Brayshaw 4. Petracca 3. Harmes 2. Salem 1. Viney
  6. Serious question. Did it only rain in the Cranbourne area today? Scores of other VFL games indicate yes.
  7. Saints on 5 behinds just before half time. Sigh!!
  8. AVB is on a mission. What a bull!
  9. Good job McKenna. Putting him on ice now, good to see him get through it.
  10. Casey on track for 200 tackles.
  11. Sorry, my intention wasn’t to point out the spelling, I liked the sound of it. He’s become my daughter’s favourite and we will run with it here.
  12. I also took the double with our picks because of the odds but obviously no good. Yes, we take the collects when we can Macca. I got the tri in the 4th at Newcastle x2.5. It was more you know what than class. Picked the favourite to win and worked the numbers backwards, 5-4-3. I was following a trend that was happening often early in the day. Nice collect for the price of a short black. I noticed Wadda’s pick has come into $4.60 from $6.
  13. Neither did my pick Macca. I did have a productive early session though. A couple of winners and a trifecta with good returns. Might tune in to the Casey game now with the occasional switch back to Flemington.
  14. You might have stumbled on an appropriate nickname for him. Plenty of good inside!
  15. He looks cooked right now. Fox reported he will miss close to a month with a strained calf.
  16. El Magnificence scratched. I believe they will accept for a BM64 on Wednesday at Sandown. I will pass on more information as the weekend passes. Good luck to all today.
  17. Connections do have a high opinion about El’s ability Macca. I believe the horse can win some very nice races in the not too distant future. I don’t think he can match Nature Strip tomorrow, although I do think he can be very competitive and is definitely a place chance. Well, Cool Chap’s odds have been trimmed down to $7.50 on TAB. Maybe punters do read our ‘3 Way Turf Talk’. Just had a look at his form this preparation. In terms of class, his last start was the ‘easiest’. In the 5 before that he raced in Listed & Group races against the likes of ‘ Humidor & Happy Clapper’, with the biggest losing margin being 5.1L in a Group 3 in Sydney. Thanks for pointing it out, I believe we are getting slight overs. Sleep? Long gone Macca....I’m in the middle of two weeks leave and how naive of me to think I could snooze during the day when the 3 little rascals are on holidays themselves.
  18. Tigers should win tonight and if they do, they will tie the record for most consecutive wins at the MCG. Damn shame, that’s our record.
  19. Just did the old google search. First headline “ Troy Pannell is a f_og”. True headline by the way. Then it goes on to say he suffered concussion during a game this year.
  20. Vince has travelled up with the team, MFC posted a video on Instagram from training. Couldn’t spot any of the other emergencies.
  21. Like Macca stated, could be a really good Saturday. World Cup, Casey leading into the Dees game, ponies in between ( with some return hopefully), more World Cup and of course no shortage of Demonland throughout the journey. Netflix on the back burner for now.?
  22. Best Bet. Flemington R4 No.3 Remember The Name TAB Odds: $5.00 In terrific form and has run some quick sectionals of late. Tricky field with the top 4 all a genuine chance of winning but i like to stick with winning form in similar class. That makes Oliver riding two of our “ Bests” tomorrow.
  23. Rampe stated in an article during the week that the Swans “ Walk Taller” with him in the side. In that slugfest last night his tackle count was 0 and struggled big time to get to contests. Injuries could be the major reason for his decline and if it’s true that we are interested in him, that’s a major gamble by us imo.
  24. I probably wouldn’t go near him by these numbers and when you say he’s in a decline you weren’t wrong. Dan HANNEBERY GOALS 0 BELOW AVG GAMES PLAYED 10 KICKING EFFICIENCY 52.8 BELOW AVG CLEARANCES 2 BELOW AVG CONTESTED POSSESSIONS 7 BELOW AVG EFFECTIVE DISPOSALS 13.1 BELOW AVG AFL PREMIERSHIP 2018 STATISTICS AS AT ROUND 15 The numbers are stark. 2016 average 2016 rank (out of top 120 mids) 2018 average 2018 rank (out of top 121 mids) Disposals 30.8 5 19.1 83 Kick rating -3.3% 96 -14.3% 121 Metres gained 427m 13 199m 112 Contested possessions 13.2 10 7 90 Uncontested possessions 17.8 11 11.9 67 Clearances 4.7 36 2 89 Score involvements 7 12 3.4 108 Pressure points 44.2 36 31.4 99 Perhaps the most staggering part of Hannebery's descent is he's still only 27 and should be in the prime of his career. His foot skills have been worse than any other midfielder in the AFL with his kick rating at -14.3 per cent.
  25. Can we transfer our Round 21 game against the Swans to the SCG?
