monoccular

Dwayne - surely “bullish” is a typo or autocorrect for what Dwayne really says.

Night games need to start at 7pm Breaks need to be shorter NB half time. I rarely stay up to the end of “neutral games” because half time is filled with boring gumph

Speaking of whom, does anyone have any updated info on Luker’s whereabouts or progress?

As long as he gets the same umpire and tribunal latitude as Cripps we are really onto a winner.

Xavier Lindsay — spreadsheet?

Mods - definitely need to have the thinking / pondering emoji restored.

Far better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right.

Counseling for paranoia never helps, because the counselors are really part of the plot and are out to get you 🙄

Thanks for all the reports. I haven’t seen McVee mentioned much at all during the preseason. Has he been away at grandpas doing more running?

Maybe it was the opposite?

And any comments on the relative performances against each other?

Supplementary question: how is he going?

Mumbai - this is how rumours start. “JVR, Kosovo, Fritsch, Trac transferring to bolster Collingwood as stated on authoritative MFC website” 😮😮😮🙄🙄🙄🤗🤗🤗 6-6-6 may have almost KOd Pagan’s paddock

Interestingly I was thinking in response to the comment that Frittata was pretty versatile (better than most) with either foot, particularly with snap shots.

Mods - when can we get the facepalm emoji back, please.

Call me paranoid, but I fear the AFL will pull some sort of swiftly on us, again. Q: is it paranoid when you know actually and truthfully they are out to get you?

And he did get concussed v Colonwood in his first game 😡

Does anyone own a drone?

Wait for the HS headline “Discontent at Demons as skipper fails to train as he contemplates move to Collingwood.” 🙄 Sounds way too easy. We will surely kick 30 goals every week. Not even McAdam? The guy (Langford) is barely into his first AFL preseason

Yes, sure, but this was really a unique injury. Not everyone with a knee to the ribs needs to taken to hospital stat. Remember how long it took at Epworth for this to be recognized too. Hopefully they will learn that a non contrast CT is not enough in a trauma situation. I heard from an impeccable source that it took a very astute Demon fan surgeon to get things properly investigated and transferred That said I am sure that the club and the AFL has had some “learnings”.

58er - of course it would be fantastic if Kynan Brown got a run and established himself, but there is and will / should be a merit based pecking order. Fierce competition for places can only be good for the team, though disappointing for those who miss out especially on September 27.

Fantastic stuff. 👻, it seems that Tracc is 100% committed to achieving the highest goals for himself and for the team this year, and beyond?

Maybe it is the same one that 😮Scott says the Cats had in our PF slaughter? if that is the case he should stay well away from the club and from teammates. Maybe he could drop over and share water bottles at Lexus or Punt Road though.

An oxymoron?

I also wouldn’t expect him to come straight back into the team given the nature and duration of his injury - but who knows? He did play round zero 2024 with what seemed to be almost zero preseason. Maybe the club will learn from past mistakes - hopefully.
