Carlton this week.

I'm feeling a bit scared of going to the footy with my son this week as I just can't take coming away feeling depressed again. I probably wont go. Is this wrong?

No Murphy or Carrazzo, and maybe a line in the sand game for us, I'm expecting a better effort than last week...but from what I've seen so far,I just don't trust them.

 

Im going out on a limb after my prediction to beat sydney went horribly wrong. I think we might lose this one.

Jokes aside, a better effort is needed, time to show we actually are heading in the right direction with a 4 quarter effort. I know its a cliche but i want to see the melbourne players have some pride in the jumper and to try and gain some respect against a side who has consistantly mocked and bullied us.

 

I can't stand there arrogant, incoherent tripe blues supporters dish up when there going ok... I hope we lift and threaten. Definitely going...sucker 4 punishment

A Carlton mate refers to this game as "the bye"... would so love to knock them off.

Am going, but fully expecting to be belted.

To state the obvious, we need to start strong. I thought against the Swans we were toe to toe for the first 10 min but could only score 2 points while they responded with 2 goals, and our confidence faded to zero. Blues have their own ghosts swirling around them this week and a loss to the Mighty Dees would whip their fans into a frenzy.

Please Footy Gods let it click on Sunday.


My attendance at the game this week will be strongly swayed by the team selected on Thursday night. I am not going to sit at an away game copping it off Carlton supporters if I am not confident the players on the park are giving 100%

I'd love to see full on bruise footy(not bruise free) this weekend! Attack the ball and give it to a team mate in a better position, who then kicks to a leading forward.

Yeah? You mean they expect to collect zero premiership points from the game?!! Love it!

Play Tapscott on Mitch Robinson. It'll be a learning experience for him and he just might lay the guy out. We already know that we're going to be destroyed by their small forwards, so just accept the loss and hope we don't look as soft as we have in the past against them. I want no more "Bruise Free" comments.

No it is not

Have pity on him to ensure we have a future member think of a reason not to go.

Another 100 point loss and he will be considering the Melbourne Storm

What are the implications for Neeld and the senior players if we have back to back 100 point losses?

No more than this week.

If however it occurs on 24th June that is another question

I'll be there, but it'll be a 5-10 goal loss, at the least. I can definitely see a game akin to the Hawthorn game: within 7-8 goals the whole game, before a blowout to the 60-70 point range.

...and even worse were it the weekend of 15,16,17 June ! :-)

All I want to see is effort, that is all I ask, do your best and put some pride back into the jumper. Four point to me is irrelavant just want to see a positive step taken


I want to see us gang-tackling, kicking into space and to forwards on the lead, no chipping to stationery players who are cut off and stand still as their opponent runs away. I want to see players like Trengove getting loose and running down the wings. I want to see Frawley dashing out of defence and not hesitating to dispose of it. I want players to look at the goals when they mark inside 50, not looking for other players.

It's as simple as making an effort. I've been pleased with our effort in some losses in the past, such as against the Dogs 2 years ago (Which we were extremely unlucky to lose). I won't measure our performance by a margin but players need to want the ball and want to be out there (I'll be watching Sylvia and Moloney closely)

Let's forget about winning games and concentrate on winning quarters at the moment,we've won 4 from 32 quarters so far.

The coaching staff should demand 100 tackles this week at least because if we don't have the ball and we aren't tackling,we're watching.

Jack Watts must play at CHB ON the CHF all day.


Jack Watts must play at CHB ON the CHF all day.

Jack Watts must play in the forward 50 next to Mitch Clark all day.

If we don't lift this week after all this bagging then we are OFFICIALLY SHITE!

I seriously doubt we have to wait till sunday

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
