Barrett praises Melbourne and Roos

prepare to fall off your chair.

Melbourne has been transformed since he took over. Roos has returned hope to the lives of supporters, replacing despair.

The recruits - Dom Tyson, Bernie Vince, Daniel Cross - are starring, not just on the field, but equally importantly for this club full of impressionable youngsters who have had confidence drained in recent years, off it.

Jack Viney would probably perform under anyone, but you feel he's going even harder because it's Roos who is coaching him. Jack Watts is showing signs of a breakthrough.

Cam Pedersen has been given responsibility, and has flourished. Jeremy Howe has added scope to his game. James Frawley has now got what he always wanted - a reason to stay.

The future, so bleak as recently as September last year, is now something to behold
 

now I feel sick

 

This is the sort of [censored] I don't want to read yet (not that I want to read Barrett ever)

Make us earn it.

As for this piece of [censored], he has no idea and changes with the wind.


Get stuffed Barrett ya Fllog!

We don't need you sucking up you floggin ambulance chaser.

Slimeball. Jumps on the bandwagon when it suits. Always 1step behind and writes like he's a prophet. He can get stuffed.

Pretty sure we all agree with his thoughts of Roos hopefully staying on as senior coach another few years

Over to you PJ

The only Barrett I recognize is Ray Barrett.


He's still an utter [censored].

(Oh fine, auto-censor, he's a terrible journalist with no insight, no expertise, and worst of all, no integrity. I'd say that's more offensive than calling him a f-l-o-g, but there you go).

Edited by autocol

Thrust of article is that we must sign up Roos immediately. When that doesn't happen he can claim we failed as usual.

He can't write either, the first few sentences in that quote are poorly constructed. It is the sort of sloppy syntax up with which I will not put!


This is why he is regarded as a trash journalist. Jumps on well and truly after we've been showing serious signs of improvement.

Please for the love of all that is good don't click this link. Starve the bastards and they'll all die out one by one.

On the contrary, everybody should inundate him with praise claiming that it is the best and most incisive article he has every written. maybe he might even get the message?

On the contrary, everyone should just ignore him.

  • 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.
