Well here go, the weather has turned up too!
Perfect autumn day in Melbourne, looking at a Max of 22 degrees. Will still be a bit dewy though.
I was actually hoping for a rainy day, but drier conditions do suit the Dee's.
How does everyone feel about the tips???
I just want Melbourne to...
There isn't a thread yet so I thought I would kick it off.
I am heading in now to hold a baby croc and get spit on by a camel!!!
The key to the Dee's winning today will be to turn the game in to a quagmire. The weather hasn't helped as it is a pearler, but we can still do it.
Possession game...
So who's getting along this evening?
Melbourne are fielding a young side even by their standards, most key talls missing. Hogan, Dawes, Clark, Gawn, Jamar.
The real interest for the Dee's is the midfield, can the new additions of Cross, Tyson, Vince and co. have an immediate impact?
I will...
Well wonna is on a red so I will start this up, but seeing I am already at the ground and hence, on my phone, can a mod please edit this with relevant details. Otherwise I will get on my laptop later.
Jake Spencer (Melb) can accept a 3-match ban for his bump on Ben McEvoy. Steve Johnson can accept 2 matches for rough conduct Pearce Hanley....
UGH! He's a clumsy kid!
Hey guys,
Just some notes from training today:
It was a full group session, no Casey/MFC divide.
Grimes doing speedy laps and not part of training obviously.
Toumpas out doing some light running and skills work.
Started with a lot of running for the main group
Then sprints and...
Training this morning at Gosch's, should be a good crowd with the 'landers heading out to show their support as well.
I urge anyone that can make it down at all even for a while to show some support for the boys. Some unity around the club. Let them know we're all here for the tough times too...
Post in here with your witty bullshit and you will cop a card.
We're all hurting, we're all footy people just like you.
If you want to get your jollys that way, enjoy the break from your precious forum arseholes.
This will be an evening deal, helping out by calling lapsed members and renewing them. Hit him up on the email above if you can help out at all.
IIRC it's only a couple of hours commitment and you get to go in to the club offices which is pretty snazzy!!
From Demonland where the same request...

Very impressive!
Re: culling high draft...
Hi guys,
anyone here had experience sync'ing radio broadcasts with the Grand Final, will I run in to delay issues?

Would way rather listen to Roy and HG over the ****ing numpties on Channel 7 if at all possible. Anyone else...
Did anyone get to the game? Would love to hear the wrap up!
Apparently Couch had a good day.
Also, Port Melbourne lost so Casey are a game clear with one less played!!!
There's a supreme lack of pre-match talk around here nowadays. Let's not just talk about the picks, but the match-ups and what we can see unfolding.
As the season from hell rolls on, do we have what it takes to knock of our former #1 bunny?
Who takes Tom McDonald's spot in the side?
Can we...
I hope I have his name right, haven't checked but this boy is an absolute ****ing gun. You see Patton and co. copping plenty of praise but this boy already has the runs on the board. Dominated his opposite again yesterday, deserves the Rising Star nomination and would be leading it at the moment...
The Tigers of old, giving Freo their first win at the 'G in 5 years.
I amsure there will be a myriad of excuses, apparently Freo are wet weather specialists etc etc...
Since the Tigers supporters want to start a thread on the mainboard to have a circlejerk in after every win, we owe it to...
Another obligatory thread for bragging rights! If you can think of other categories, let me know!
Mine is below, you don't have to put up a full ladder - just MFC possie if you're in a hurry.
Ladder:
Hawthorn
Geelong
Collingwood
Carlton
West Coast
North Melbourne
Sydney
Adelaide...

Looking good, 'Generation D'! Trenners and Frawley taking over the page!
Just a question of my own, anyone got a Legends' Membership? Or been on the waiting list before?
Me and a mate on the waiting list...
