The Road to Adelaide Oval - Round 3

I know I am captain cynical at the moment, but does anyone else get annoyed at when players talk all glowingly about their mates on other teams.. when we are about to play them... days after a pathetic loss... they are the enemy, you shouldn't be talking like that. You should be a ruthless melbourne footballer first and a mate of the enemy second. The whole tone of that interview was like 'yeah we'll have a go and see what happens" very casual, which is exactly what we see from the side periodically and with dire consequences. Just thought i'd throw another log on the negative fire :o

Not at all, I actually thought that interview was the best we've seen from the players this year. Felt like just a couple of blokes having a chat, Bernie was being honest and actually talking rather than just spitting out the normal cliches.

 

really dislike the fact he is saying we played two good quarters last week. For starters, we didn't, but more importantly the game as a whole was such a disgrace the senior coach should not be shining any positive light on it all IMO

You spent the summer seeing positives in the close losses we had and convinced yourself that this team was not a disgrace and that we could turn those losses into wins, then last week we were 4 goals ahead at HT and you can't take a positive from that?

That's the incongruity I can see.

EDIT: 'Incongruity' why do I have to be consistent? They came out and played a horrific game. Why would that not alter my outlook? I would be insane if it didn't

We were 4 goals ahead at QT because we weren't playing anyone. After that it was the Mark Neeld show starring Chris Dawes and Colin Garland

I am amazed we have graduated from the nonsense of the last few years where we can be so blase about keeping a team goalless and being up by 4 goals away from home...

  • 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.
