    Player Watch #27: Max Heath – traded from St Kilda

    We've actually had an incredibly good run at finding / developing high-quality ruckmen over my lifetime considering how rare they are across the league. We've even developed ruckmen like Troy Simmonds and Darren Jolly who went on to have successful careers outside of the club after they couldn't...

    Training 2026 Preseason Thread

    Can't get Kayo here in Europe, unfortunately, and WatchAFL doesn't broadcast the practice matches. Never mind, I saw the highlights, I got the gist of what happened.

    Is there anywhere to watch it? In previous years I seem to remember that they posted the full practice matches up on the official website, doesn't seem to be the case this year.

    MFC Fans Only Non-Demons AFL Discussion – 2026

    I like the idea of SOO and I agree with the idea that it'd function better as a kind of tournament - with matches staggered over many years - so that there's actually an ultimate point to it rather than just one-off exhibition games. In an ideal world, you'd have each of the 6 states play each...

    Player Watch #33: Latrelle Pickett – Pick 12

    Gonna be a lot of fun watching these two play together.

    Training 2026 Preseason Thread

    I mean, if we're going to have a terrible preseason, this is the year to have it. No-one expects us to do anything, so in the worst case scenario we have to give a bunch of younger, fringe players a run to see what they can do under a new coach and get a high draft pick out of it. The only...

    Favourite Melbourne Games

    I think some games are just inherently funny and you have to appreciate them for what they are. I find it difficult to get angry at that St. Kilda game for that reason, because everything about those last few minutes was just so completely and utterly ridiculous. Some losses are traumatising and...

    It might be worth pointing out (from the clips I saw at least) that Jefferson appeared to be manned up against Lever for that match sim. So the pessimist in me says that the headline here shouldn't be that Jefferson is due for a breakout year, but rather that Lever is so completely cooked as a...

    Religion Bondi shooting - 16 confirmed dead at Jewish event

    It's unfortunate that we have to think in these terms, but Channel 7 is reporting that the guy who intervened to wrestle one of the gunman has been identified as Ahmed Al Ahmed, which should hopefully help with dampening the 'All Muslims are Terrorists' / 'Deport all Immigrants' narrative that...

    Honestly, taking off the black-tinted glasses for a moment, I think we'll improve this season. Of the players we lost during the off-season, Petracca is the only one we'll genuinely miss. Oliver for Steele is at worst a wash. Spargo couldn't get on the park and McVee was poor. On the flip...
