Talking Footy's post match discussion entailed a 30 second discussion of "how good is Max Gawn?" and a 7 minute discussion of "how bad are Collingwood?". Watson declaring that the loss marks them being at their lowest point this season.

One day, Melbourne will get total credit for a win and the opponent won't be deemed at crisis point. One day.

It might be quiet on the tv it at the game the demon roar definitely out powers the pies and the Tigers in games I've gone to this year.

 

And when we boo $cully it's the loudest booing at a game I've ever heard outside of a port-crows showdown.

I think a few "well done boys " each match is quite sufficient.

Just an all round [censored]-hot day, old dee.

Watching the replay now and I'll tell you what has really improved. Tyson's tackling is phenomenal. He is becoming a terrific player. Really looking forward to seeing him up in Sydney next too.

When you're the editor of the Herald scum, you'll see that "dee-spair of Collingwood, essendrugand ninthmond" will far outsell printed copies of "dee-molition at the g" or "doing the M-C--DEED" 

Let them cry, let them argue about how pathetic they are. Let the media focus on GWS, or danger, or whoever it will be this week that's flagfavorite.we can just continue along, more experience on the big stage with more games into Wagner, petracca, gawn, Viney etc. We will bring the 6 minute important segment to them, in time.

I was on a flight early this morning my time when the game was on. I arrived in Cairo and when I got into the hotel I sat down and watched the reply without knowing the result.

Had an enjoyable couple of hours watching and cheering the boys on.

Was a very good performance with a good even input from just about all members of the team. a few outstanding players with Gawn, Vince, Tyson and Jones just great. I love watching Gawn play like this. Snapping goals, romping through the center and clunking marks and the best part is that he looks like he is enjoying it.

OMac, TMac and Frost looked the best I have seen them. They were helped a fair bit by the Pies selectors.

Petracca did a few things today that really had my eyes widening with wonder. He is going to have a huge impact on this club.

Another win would not surprise next week.

       Did  anybody  else  notice  the  large  number  of  DEES supporters at  the  membership  tent  before  the  game?  Hope  they  were  signing  up  for  3  game  memberships.

Anyone got footage of Kennedy being coathangered by #40 (which was called "play on" by umpire Nicholls)? I spent the whole first quarter watching through red mist after that. I want to see if it was as bad as it looked.

Was bloody awesome mate. Waved my flag and sung the song three times, and stayed until the boys went in. Probably won't do any of those things ever again, but felt the need for finally breaking the duck!

We look to have settled our key backs for the next eight to ten years hopefully with the two McDonalds and Frost.

 

 

It would help if we signed Big Mc soon then.

Not sure if it's been specifically mentioned, but how good was Petracca's goal in the second term?  The pick up, spin, push off and then goal was sublime.  His sure hands at both ground level and in the air, as well as his explosiveness and ability to quickly change direction in a pack make him such an exciting prospect.  Really looking forward to his second half of the year.

And just quietly, I'm confident we can push the Swans all the way this Sunday as well.  With a few players going down and their confidence taking a hit they are ripe for the picking.  Could it be our turning point heading into the bye?

Who got injured for the Swans?

Tippett, out for 6 weeks. Sam Reid pulled his hammy in the reserves, too, and Mills and Rohan also finished their game sore.

Thanks.

It was bad!  Its rare for Roos to be really animated but he all but flew from his seat when it was called 'play on' with no free kick.

Haven't seen a replay...we probably won't - it might upset Nathan or Eddie:o.

That umpire Nicholls needs attitude reduction surgery. Absolute [censored].

Was he the one one who awarded free kick for an "aggressive tackle"  WTF???

It gives me the shits. Sounds like a library almost every week. I feel like I'm the only one out there shouting every week.

Don't know what games you guys are at. The members go nuts. I've heard opposition fans say "there's not many of them but they're loud".

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
