Such a better effort than last week.

Tyson, Jones and Vince were enormous.  Gawn was good in the ruck and I felt like our backline played pretty well under the circumstances.

Our small forwards, however, were poor again.  Kent was better but I felt like Harmes had minimal impact and Garlett was woeful.

Trengove and Dawes will also be better for the run, and both make us a better side.

8 day break until we get to beat the Pies for the second time this year.

The score gap reflectedly positively on the experience gap in a tough game IMO. While disappointed, I wouldn't be too critical.

Chris Dawes cannot play again. His inability to take marks directly resulted in 4 goals that I counted. Absolute disgrace.

Is there actually a "kicking in danger" rule cause it sure as shitz didn't look like it. 

Dawks did it all day and not once were called for it. 

PATHETIC

So..umpires don't pay a single in danger the entire game when there is clearely times when a players head could be kicked in, yet they report Vince and pay 50m penalty for an open hand slap that didn't connect?

[censored] off.

Much as I loathe the expression, it was a 'noble loss' if ever there was one.

Not quite enough polish, but never without endeavour.

Missed Viney badly in these conditions.

I thought he played a good match. 

Great to have another forward line option. Competes hard. We're a better team with him in.

How did Trenners go?

Acquitted himself well and had a strong second half.

Love to know goals from turnovers...

Dawes didn't cost us the game, but pedo marks a few and kicks the odd goal. Pedo must come in next week.

Back line looked small...

Was really poor, the scoreboard might mask it but to many players that can't do the basics.

Jones, Vince and Tyson well done.

Tall defenders - terrible as usual, every time they do something good they undo their good work. 

TMac and Garlett, that was disgraceful.

3 votes B Vince.

His report will be thrown out.

Played dumb football, they thought it was dry half the day.

Didn't do the simple things like kick it off the ground, tap it on, we all flew so many times leaving Hawks players to crumb it easily.

At least our young blokes will remember this and will show Hawthorn no mercy in the years to follow.

His marking (not) was predictable but almost excusable in these conditions.

Overall he had a good game.

And a positive - what a great idea to play Frost in defence.  I wonder why nobody thought of that before.  Brilliant one out of the hat by Roos

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
