Bail has come off straight away and is straight down the race. Not good...

I think we're in a position where anything "bad" that happens is actually "good".

This is gonna be one ugly game....

Waiting for an update on Bail....

Newton's disposal has not improved one bit.... How he retains his spot on our list is beyond me...

Who wants to guess the crowd? I'm gonna say 12,000.

Pretty much what I said in the crowd prediction thread. Happy it's not our home game.

First Melbourne goal to Nathan Jones..... Lovely centre clearance by Beamer and nice attack on the footy from Stef Martin.... Jones strolls in to an easy goal....

Goal to Harvey, then Jones replies straight away. 1.1.7 to 1.0.6

Yes, but we don't want to see young players getting injuries, do we?

Bail back on, might have had a head knock but seems to be better now.

The opposing Jones kicks Norths 2nd.... After a good tussle with Petterd

Petterd seems to be playing back on Corey Jones...

J-Mac really should stick to handballing.... LOL.... Burns one out on the full....

Bartram seems to get a lot of frees for high tackles.... Just something I am noticing more and more each week....

Another goal to North.... 3.0.18 to 1.1.7

Bail groggy, not entirely with it. Off again.

I don't think we've got anything to be worried abt today. North 11 points up now.

T-Mac doing some nice things.... Seems to be able to find a target and also moves well and has good awareness....

Goal to Newton

2.1.13 to 3.0.18

Edit: Wakelin thinks Newton 'has all the tricks...is generally a good kick...Bailey has a real talent on his hands'

Newton free just inside 50.....

Lining up....

From outside 50.... Mongrel punt..... GOAL

God i hate Newton... can we trade him? lol

Rohan Smith talking about Bail....

Done for the day....

Not a memorable debut for the lad

Reports that Bail has a thigh injury

God i hate Newton... can we trade him? lol

We might be able to con the Goald Coast into giving us a few cane toads for him

North kick it out on the full in Melbournes 50......

Melbourne can't capitalize.....

Our disposal is not flash...

CB will be happy with Valenti's effort so far.

Goal to Goldstein.

Goal to Goldstein.... 4.0.24 to 2.1.13

Melbourne is just bombing into the F50.... Picking the wrong option in the forward line.... Don't really look like kicking anything near a winning score...

I can only go by the stats, but Valenti seems to be getting his fair share of the ball. How is he going?
