Hawks looking good here early against North. Let's hope they can really put them away today and even up our percentage. 

 

EDIT and now another 26-0

Norf getting a touch up. Nice. Nicer if it wasn't Hawthorn.

We do play that ground fairly well so I don't think the boys will to afraid of it so to speak. 

No excuses tonight we r playing for a potential finals spot.

A goal to Norf - that's upsetting.

Dribble goal by Bruest - wow.

There's never been a time where I didn't want North to lose, but this is beautiful and great for us. 

Not only did we beat Hawthorn, we made them angry enough to make sure they won't lose this week!

Makes the Bombers, Roos and Eagles losses pretty important. We played the Roos at full strength, at a ground we had never seen before and they got 7 goals from frees, we lost by less than a kick, similar with the Eagles and we played a shocker against the Bombers.

 We could have been in the 8, fighting to keep our place tonight.

It's a pity we cant actually put 3rd generation politicians in a pork barrel.

I think we should get it passed as law.

Beazley,Downer,and i would say Crean although I liked him learnt to ride the gravy train as a god given rite.

For those of you who may be still worried about our prospects, fear not.

Melbourne are undefeated under lights this year (3-0)*

*disclaimer, Rd 7 win at metric on started at 4.40pm, but we won't the second half under lights by 11 goals

QUIZ TIME: If you could choose one of two options, which would you choose:

a. Melb make finals, but Hawthorn win premiership

or

b. Melb don't make finals, Hawthorn don't win premeirship

Reason I ask: I keep finding myself barracking for the Kangas today by default, and realising what i'm doing. I think i HATE hawthorn more than i LOVE Melbourne. Oops :/ Damn 4pete.

I've kept off the booze so far but night games are a deadly trap. I've missed many a second half due to being [censored]!

I liked Crean as well but I share your sentiment Biffen.

5 seasons of wanting Hawthorn to lose every game builds up a mighty habit. Hard to just switch to Hawthorn supporting mode so easily.

 

Well it's over now, 33 points. Few more goals will be nice.

3% reduction on North.  Another 3% each against the Swans and GWS brings them down to 102.5%.

Our % now is 102.58.

We just have to keep winning, a good win against the Blues would be handy though.

    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
