Gameday - Melbourne v Carlton

[titan_uranus 25,043]

Late change: Jamar in, Jones out.

[CHAMP 347]

Well at least we've gone like-for-like.

Well at least we've gone like-for-like.

Classic

[titan_uranus 25,043]

We're now playing Spencer, Jamar, Johnson and Martin all at once. Good chance to assess our ruck stocks I guess.

[Demon Head 292]

I suppose they'll close the roof to ensure that it's a real game for running players.

Having all those talls in the side at once should hold us in good stead against Carlton's runners.

Another genius form of self-sabotage -- having too many slow bigs so that when (inevitably) one or 2 midfielders go down with a hamstring strain and another with a bad corky, we end up with Spencer on Judd at a critical point in the final quarter.

When we're 52 points down?

[Mister Ed 317]

We're toying with them 2.1.13 to 1.1.7.

Goals to PJ and Beamer.

Been listening to the game? - no signs of that being the case just yet.

May not be necessary, but it is good to have a contingency plan in place.

Bailey is no fool.

[e25 5]

Nev Jetta, like Wonnaemirri, is under-rated.

Could both become VERY important players for us in the future.

[Mister Ed 317]

Goal to Jetta and its 3.1.19 each of two.

[beelzebub 23,383]

so far....wtf...3.1 a piece... Mr Bailey...do your stuff

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Getting a little concerned. Sounds like we've got them well and truly under control. 4.1 apiece.

My nails are already bleeding...

Blues now 2 goals in front. You can stop chewing the nails.

Not for another 8 days.

[Jastone 2]

Jamar looking quite good! Hope he sticks around in the future..

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Long goal to Jamar early in the second...

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Geez, nifty and Jamar, with PJ a link man in there, Sylvia is back...

If Ratten doesn't come out and grill the blues at half or 3/4 time, we're in trouble.

45 plays 38

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

What's wrong with Petterd? Also, Frawley doing a job on Fev, with assistance from Riv.

[rumpole 522]

Long goal to Jamar early in the second...

Jetta has two and we trail by only 7 points - 6.2.38 to 7.3.45

[Jastone 2]

Poor mistake by Mcnamara, oh well. A 2-3 goal buffer all game will be alright with me.

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Whats wrong with Petterd and Liam?.....on the bench...

Yeah my nails too!!

Think Petterds strained his groin.. having a test at half time....

Jurrah dislocated his finger in the 1st!

Valenti fitting in well again!!

Is this Nev Jettas breakthrough game i wonder aloud??

Also, Jamar.. 3 gls! ..is he trying to say 'hey dees, i can rest up forwards an kick gls as well'?!

I tell you what. If he kicks 1 more he's a chance. 2 more and he's be the leading contender to get a nom this week.

A late season nomination is a bit of fools gold, especially in a mickey mouse award... But still... Reward for what has obviously been hard work that impresses his coaches.

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Jamar's best game, perhaps? 3 goals a PB. Against a good side too, BTW.
