Jack Viney is a late out with signs of stress on the same toe which kept him out for a big chunk last year and hosed up his preseason

Cool, cool cool

Melbourne is averaging the second highest amount of inside 50s in recorded league history, second only to essendon in 2000. All the other sides in the top 5 of the rankings went on to play in a grand final.

Happy with the win but geez we gently caress up a lot of forward 50 entries. Hopefully will be able to take a couple of big scalps before the finals roll around instead of relying on flogging the lower teams

I'm really hoping that Richmond are Geelong of 08. Even better than the flag year and clearly the dominant side during the regular season, but get done in the GF by an unexpected side.

I never really listen to commentary or watch on telly until recently and Carey coming back kinda just passed me by. It infuriates me. I don’t understand how the AFL or the community at large just forgives him for everything he’s done. Not even the cheating stuff like the abuse is what I’m talking about

Bad kicking is good football to watch, I guess?

Tom McDonald, our best set shot kick in the side, missed his first 2 set shots on goal in the first quarter. Hogan got a knee in the hip early on and was off e: physically for the rest of the game. Just goes that way sometimes.

Still, ffffffuuucccckkkkkkk

I can’t see much in the incident that contradicts that ruling

I would call the motion a strike rather than a push, not disputing the open hand but he's kneeling over a prone opponent and swings his hand down in frustration clipping the opposition player in the jaw. He didn't accidentally hit Fritsch, he deliberately hit him when Fritsch couldn't do anything to defend himself.

So I wouldn't have rated the contact as incidental.

Jayden Hunt has been named as available but the club has confirmed Hibberd will be out for the next 3 weeks.
