As much I hated Hogan saying touched, I loved it. A batsman walking. Sportsman.

Although, he was saying it to prepare the defense.

We wasted the ball all day but a win is a win is a win.

We have to learn how to beat teams that play defensively against us and have a spare or two back. When we are the "hunted" not the "hunter".

If we don't, we won't go anywhere.

We didn't do it well but we did it. That's all I care about right now. 

Goodwin & co have plenty to analise from today, we need to look at forward structures when they drop a man back, but ultimately we were the better team and showed it when it mattered. 

2-0 feels a lot better than 0-2!

They learnt a bit in the last quarter, we shouldn't have won

But we did. 

Goodwin has had a great introduction to senior coaching

Brendan Bolton is a dam good coach.

I think Brayshaw can really play.  Got another head knock though, bandaged.  Really hope he gets a good run.

Brayshaw did nothing at all yet you want Watts out who was crucial for is in that last qtr.

Mind boggling

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
