I don't think our performance last week was as bad as Essendon's right now against Adelaide.

A little perspective maybe..?

I don't feel as bad about it but it was still pretty putrid. The best bit is listening to Lloyd have a cry about it.

Adelaide at AAMI are a totally different beast. Since they've joined the competition they've won 65% of their AAMI matches and 39% elsewhere.

Essendon just as bad as us on the road.

we will know a lot more after next sunday

huh?

Theyve played 104% of games?

Makes perfect sense to me. You may have to spell it out for a few people!!

Hahahhahaha

Read his post again and think about it a bit longer...

Using far too much handball terribly just like we did

Dont fool yourself as we were beaten badly last week

This year the scoreboard is the least of our priorities

playing competivley with the goal to be more consistent at it is what this year is about

Good football teams dont get smashed like what the Crows did to us or the Bombers

Do you not think has something to do with the pressure Adelaide are applying and the options they are leaving to the opposition by virtue of the way they set up..?

Young football teams DO get pumped like we did, from time to time.

All comes down to how we perform against Essendon. They will come out absolutely pumped but we've seen in the form line that we can beat them. It's sad I'm writing off the saints game already, but the bombers game is a huge opportunity we need to take.

Theyve played 104% of games?

They've won 65% of games at AAMI - 65 games won for every 100 played

They've won 39% of games not played at AAMI - 39 games won for every 100 played

It's about 52% overall

For the keen observers, they've also won 100% of the games they've won.

hahahahaha that was bang on.

For the keen observers, they've also won 100% of the games they've won.

AND, they've lost 100% of the games they've lost.

That makes 200%!

All this maths is doing my head in.

Thanks Eth. Didn't think it was that hard to understand.

Funny stuff

The adelaide of the last two weeks is substantially different to that of the first 12 and they will beat a few more teams before the year is out. Melbourne's performance last week, particularly the first half was abysmal- no questions, however people will soon realise that Adelaide aren't as bad as the start of the year indicated.

Comparing our game to essendons game against the Crows is just making an excuse (again)

Our Game against adelaide totally stunk and that is the only way to describe it. At 1/4 time-Game over. Shite effort.

It was shite, but the performance of the bombers also provides some perspective for all the panic merhcants.

Personally, I didn't enjoy our match against Adelaide, but I'm content with the outcome.

Excuse me...You are content with the adelaide Performance of last week???

Am i reading that correctly??

Yep. It happens. Young side. Will happen again. That's life.

For the people who aren't good at maths

7 plus 13 also equals 28

Can't agree with that. Not all the Team is Young-we have many senior players in our current side.

Opposition sides all have young players too .

Our Team attitude is not right-10 years of losing on the road & you are content?

Maybe the players are like that because they know they can get away with it. "oh the supporters won't mind-they are content"

Interesting thought that....
