    A poll on the Punt Road End site has 47% saying Melbourne will win by a 21 to 50 point margin....

    I'm not sure I am comfortable with this..altho the bookies still have the Toiges as favourites

    Not sure why they're favourites with the bookies, we've won the last 3-4 vs them, we're in much better form and have a clear advantage in the ruck/midfield. 

    from what i can see we win unless we play a shocker.

    you can be as cynical or optimistic as you want, it still has zero influence on who will win the game.

    Petracca is listed as an emergency, so there is time on Friday or Saturday to release a video of him calling his mum or dad telling them he is now playing. Announcing him as an emergency stokes the interest in this game and who's in or not.  All eyes will be on tomorrows training. interesting the mixed feelings it brings out, do we want Jeffy to have another week off, or want him in possibly at the expense of Petracca who we have waiting so long to see run out in the red and blue.

    Jones came off in the final minutes last week and on radio they said an injury. I thought they may have chosen to rest Oliver when we play the GC in a few weeks time. 

    Wow wasnt expecting Christian to be named but it would be great if he did play. 

    I hope we get a great crowd and the melbourne fans turn out. Would be great if we could repeat last years effort.

    I hope CP5 plays.

    Was it Thursday or Friday last week that the club uploaded the video of Hunt ringing his mum??

    No such video of Petracca yet.

    Petracca doesn't have a mum, he was created in a lab.

    I half don't want Garlett to get up this weekend...

    It's weird - Garlett is one of my very favourite players, and I had the same thought.

    Pedersen, Hunt, Kennedy, Garlett as the bench. Not that bad.

    If Garlett doesn't get up, we bring Petracca in. 

    I like where this club is going.

    Now to ensure we don't do an Essendon. A corner can be turned this weekend.

    Mate have you not read the Mahoney comments..

    Quite simply he said that IF Garlett doesn't get up tomorrow Petracca will make his debut. If Garlett passes a fitness test then Tracca does not play.

    Seriously not hard to work that out...

    Roosy just said Petracca won't play unless Jeffy doesn't come up.

    They wouldn't name Petracca in the extended squad if he wasn't playing.

    Yes, they would.

    Petracca doesn't have a mum. He was developed in a laboratory.

    Will play? But it's touch and go?

    I might contradict myself, but at least I don't contradict myself...

    I doubt anyone knows if Garlett will play yet, it all depends on tomorrow's session.

    My man says he's fine but the club is playing all injuries cautiously, I guess because we have depth to cover atm

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
