Ok for this week's poll I'm going to phrase the question like this. Prior to the season would you have been happy with a 2 and 2 start? Forget the circumstances of the last two games and that we could have won both of them and been 4-0. Try to look at it through the lens of late last year/early this year. Would you have been happy with a 2-2 start?

    I voted no - I felt we should be 3-1 at this stage, with the only loss I chalked down as being to the Cats.  I knew we could roll the Saints and I believed we had the Blues and Dockers well and truly covered.  I wouldn't say I'm disappointed to be 2-2 and in the 8 at this stage, but I'm not all that happy either.

    Yes and no, 

    i would say before the season I would have been happy to 

    beat the dockers and blues but lose to the saints and cats but given our round 1 win my expectation was 3-1 so the freo loss stings a bit

    same ... that Dockers game should have been a comfortable win in theory ... and ......

    I had also pencilled in a win against Richmond so next week is a big one

    Better if this question is left for next week.

    I had us at 3.5 wins. I'm disappointed with our percentage as well. But I'm coping.

    2-2 was my worst acceptable scenario. Paint it however we like, we've let winnable games slip, but it's not a disaster.

    Huge game on Monday night though.

    For me it's all about this week, if we beat Richmond I will be happy to be 3-2.

    youve got to look at the suspensions and injuries as well.

    i just want to be ahead of the ledger and in contention for a spot in the eight at the halfway point and again more importantly finish anywhere in the eight at the end of the season for it to be deemed a successful season

    • 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.
