ARE YOU LONESOME TONIGHT?

ARE YOU LONESOME TONIGHT? by The Oracle

That was miserable. Melbourne waved the white flag in the first quarter and, apart from a handfull of triers, the rabble that travelled to Sydney humiliated the oldest football club on the planet with a heartless, soulless effort.

One has to wonder what most of them were doing out there because it didn't resemble the game being played by the opposition.

If they keep playing like that, the supporters will stop coming and they'll have to ask the doorkeeper the question from the title of this short article.

Short, because there really is nothing worthwhile to write about.
