Watched the game, and there was a stat that caught my attention

- 18th in competition for average Inside 50s at 42.7 (52.3)

- 2nd in competition for average scores per forward entry (I couldn't find this stat online...)

- ?nd in competition for average score per opposition forward entry (anyone?)

If we can improve our I50s we seem to have the potency to make teams pay... means we'll only be better than midfields we can beat or break even with.

we are 2 midfielders away from that happening. Petracca is one. Need one more.

    Pointless thread.

    Are we "better than" Richmond? They are still a finals team.

    At the end of the day it's all about who shows up on the day. We are better than every team if we play four quarters, play to our strengths, and stifle the opposition's area's of strength.

    Blind optomism. Do not return to the Bailey and Neeld years.

    The optimism in the Bailey years was completely justified though. We were beating teams by 100 points and yeah there was inconsistency but we all know Bailey and his department were victims of shocking boardroom mudslinging. We played really attractive footy and times and broke a membership record in 2011.

    nOW THAT'S bs pAUL.. If one cannot enjoy one's social and economic superiority what is the world coming to? What is life all about? Why do you think I drive a Merc rather than a Toyota?

    Look at Earl Hood for example - he even has a servant to put paste on his toothbrush!!

    I am quite happy to remain superior.

    anyone from Brighton,Romsey,Borewood,Greensborough,Ballarat,Perth,Tas,NZ,America ,UK Africa,Asia,Middle East,Europe.

    Might be something to do with my French background.

    But I do not consider myself better than chicks from South America.

    They are my raison d'etre.

    it's interesting BBO, i feel in a couple of years time i will have absolutely no issue enjoying the clubs superiority over other clubs as we have risen up the ladder.

    • 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.
