    AFLW 2023 – Round 3 v Western Bulldogs @ Casey Fields, Saturday 16 September (3:05 pm AEST)

    Excellent day with the kids in brilliant sunshine. The girls are a pleasure to watch. Tayla Harris is a bloody impressive rig in person, she’s carved out of granite.

    Opinion Is Our Flag Window Shut?

    If we had Hogan, we wouldn't have May, and if we didn't have May, we wouldn't have a premiership, so... no thanks!

    MFC Fans Only Non Demons Footy Chat 2023 - incl. AFL Grand Final

    Minor correction to an unimportant part of history, but Hutchence didn't die in a wanking accident. Like most famous musicians who died young, he simply committed suicide. Paula Yates didn't want to believe it so her PR team twisted the story to make his death an accident.

    Best grand final performances to not win a norm smith

    They were. Like De Koning yesterday, he had a huge influence on the game when it was there to be won.

    #27 Luke Dunstan – retired

    I liked the point made in the article in The Age... Dunstan is a hangover cure for our midfield brigade. It says to our premiership winners: "If you are complacent over summer, you lose your spot to this bloke who is hungry for success".

    You're welcome to keep shovelling money into the pockets of foreign-owned gambling companies because you don't understand rudimentary mathematics, we just don't want to hear about here, where it's irrelevant. I love Kozzie.

    Player Watch #5: Christian Petracca – Norm Smith Medallist, 4 x All-Australian and 2 x Best and Fairest

    I reckon they originally credited him with a handball for the 'disposal' where he starts to slip over and gets tackled, and loses the ball as he hits the deck. (Late third quarter I think?). I reckon Champion Data have rescinded the play caller's decision to describe it as a handball. It's...

    Player Watch #10: Angus Brayshaw – retired due to concussion (22/02). Thanks for everything, Gus.

    That period where he took that crazy mark in the forward fifty (he dived headfirst with no idea what was coming the other way... and he's one bad concussion away from retired), then smashed that pack in the defensive fifty was incredible. He was the one who lead the team energetically in that...

    Player Watch #5: Christian Petracca – Norm Smith Medallist, 4 x All-Australian and 2 x Best and Fairest

    One thing I noticed last night was that as soon as he stepped off the podium with the Norm Smith medal, he took it off. For the rest of the night, all the media appearances etc, he has his premiership medal visible, but the Norm is tucked away. I reckon that was a deliberate choice of his to...

    #26 Sam Weideman - traded to Essendon. Adieu

    I think in two year's time we'll look back on this moment with a sigh of relief. Neither TMac nor BBB are youngsters. Even if Weid is never a star, I have confidence he'll be good enough to play the role we need played.

    Is Gary Rohan the worst finals player of all time?

    Once you see a suggestion so obviously brilliant like this, it's hard to imagine how a coaching staff being collectively paid a couple of million dollars could not come up with it themselves.

    Nathan Jones heading home

    As much as literally every football lover wishes it could happen, it's never going to. There would need to be a minimum of two injuries to specific players before Chunk would be called up.

    Rumour Wowee - Damien Barrett alleges BT bugged opposition rooms during finals

    Barrett is not one of the boys club, he earned his position (and notoriety) by digging up real stories. Taylor, on the other hand, is a gigantic windbag. Not hard to imagine this is story is almost entirely factual.

    Review Dees v the Sook & his Purple Mates: the Good, Bad & Fugly with a GAGF to Ross Lyon

    My favourite part of the game was when May predicted the over-the-shoulder handball and absolutely levelled that bloke with his shoulder into the ribcage. We gave up a lot for May, but fit and healthy he’s going to absolutely transform our backline, which has been a weak link of ours for a long...

    Rumour Hall of Fame - Mo Hope

    This thread is basically just deliberately bullying someone. There's obviously zero substance to this rumour at all, and the whole point is just to give people an opportunity to tee off on a decent human being. Go do something decent with your life OP.

    Rayza Ray: Bad for the game.

    I'd argue that with the possible exception of "prancing about", they're not even traits he actually displays. This whole furore is just the effect of a bunch of impressionable people heeding the mutterings of a crazed, moustachioed idiot.

    Rayza Ray: Bad for the game.

    If BT hadn't spent the last five years making a big song and dance about RAZOR RAY MAKING IT ALL ABOUT HIM GEE WOWEE you wouldn't even notice Ray existed. The whole thing is a story fabricated by a bloke with a windbag as big as Donald Frickin' Trump. Fake news.
