    Draw difficulty thus far based on opposition form

    Just checked Melbourne's results for rounds 1 to 8. From my calculations, our opponents had 27.5 wins, not 24.5. Gold Coast's 3 wins were probably missed.

    List Mgmt. 2013 LIST MANAGEMENT thread - Finalised

    Here are my thoughts on our list and what to do about it. Keep (28): 5 Tall backs: Dunn, Frawley, Garland, McDonald, Davis (Dunn and Garland can play small or tall, Davis can also play forward) 4 Small backs: Clisby, Jetta, Strauss, Terlich (Grimes and M.Jones can also play as backs) 4 Tall...

    A Gaelic Football fan's first impressions of Aussie Rules

    There was another version of this in the '60's (before the Col Elliot one) which was also very funny and was a recently arrived Italian migrant's view of footy. I don't rmember much of it except that the guy in the white coat waved the white flags to surrender! Hopefully somebody out there can...

    Jurrah likely to return

    I don't see why Jurrah has been selected if he won't be playing. His selection will surely get all MFC supporters and the media very excited, and it will be a huge let down by the club if he doesn't play. So, looking at the bench, my feeling is that Bail and Jurrah are certainties and that we...

    Bumped 93 debutants between 2000-2009...

    The thread title is actually misleading - hence I only got 39! It is actually looking for names of those who have played for the MFC between 2000 and 2009, not debutants (that's why the 2000 GF team are all on the list).

    Leigh Matthews = Thug

    The Stephen Smith incident happened right in front of me in the forward pocket (Hawthorn's) at the Eastern end of Princes Park. Mathews spent a lot of time in the forward line and Smith was doing a great job on him (scragging and spoiling). The ball was around the wing and Smith was standing...

    Past Players from the early 1980s

    Hi Biffinator, I don't recall of them but here are my comments on some: "Batto" (Adrian Battiston) was one of my favourites. He wasn't a highly skilled rover but was a tireless worker. A very good ordinary player who gave 100% every week. David Cordner was a 100+ goal full-forward at under 19...

    Changes vs Collingwood

    We also need someone to run with Thomas who is very talented but runs around on his own and gets cheap kicks. If Bartram, Cheney and Garland take Didak, Davis and Medhurst, we might need Dunn to play a tagging role on Thomas. He has the stamina to stay with him and has played the tagging role...

    Family Day @ Luna Park

    My kids and I had a chat with Kyle Cheney and John Meeson while we queued for the Scenic Railway. I congratulated Kyle on his form and he was very greatful for the compliment. He had a laugh with "Johnny" (as he called Meese) about the kid in front of us who thought he was Matthew Bate!! Kyle...

    NAB Challenge Match: Brisbane Lions v Melbourne

    Final score from Demonland - Dees 73 to Lions 36. Great for us to have a win but good luck to the Lions for the season ahead anyway.

    Clash jumper poll on the MFC website

    I don't mind the red one - it looks OK with the blue shorts. My issue is that I suspect it will only be worn with white shorts and will then look very average (like our red clash jumper a couple of years ago). We then won't be wearing red and blue, but red and white. I will call the club...
