Post Match Discussion - Round 13

That was the best performance from our boys for quite some years. It was a fantastic performance that actually has me getting excited. I hope not prematurely though.

It was a four quarter effort with no let up in intensity. Impressed.

Lots of deserved omac love on here but let's not forget how well tmac is playing (a couple of bad kicks aside).  Definitely our first choice ruck atm and in everything.  A true force to be reckoned with.  We play Etihad well now because we are so tough. Find the bigger grounds harder due to lack of height.  Next week is a huge challenge, I'd be reluctant to drop anyone but we need height in Perth?

What's not to love about this club. And even more so now we've put on a full game performance. With gawn and hogan in - gee we look special. And the smiles / determination and commoradorie are all so incredibly positive to see. Two huge wins. Love this club.

Agreed. Premature excitement has been a bugbear for me in the past also.

Has Goodwin brought his game plan from Essendon which is Etihad based?? 

Does it stand up at the G? 

 

Im not sure which way it will go but I hope we improve on the G

you don't remember winning there last week in front of 70000+ people?

Hope Wayne Carey, Dwayne Venom Denim and all those scumbags were watching today. Eat your own crap you have dished out about this great club over the years absolutely bashed them today. #stickitwherethesundontshine.:roos::pj:

This part of the season was always going to be a big component of where we finish at the end. We have tough matches but I believe we can win them all, this team fears no one. 

We are one of the toughest teams in the AFL, bruise free footy is but a distant memory.

How boring is this 4 quarter effort rubbish. My heart rate barely got out of a canter. 

I had an unnerving sense of calm in the last quarter,  a completely foreign emotion but I'd like to experience this again and again

One of my favourite moments of today was seeing the look of joy and causal confidence on watts face when he kicked that goal at half time. 

It was a huge goal for us I think to stop a momentum shift and the fact he just went back and slotted it no fuss was just so good the see. I think he's a good barometer to watch for the club - the fact jack is so comfortable in his own skin shows just how comfortable and quietly confident the rest of the team is as a unit.

I finish work at 10 pm tonight. Lucky for me the bottle shop closes at 11pm and is only a 30 min drive away.

Get home, watch replay.

If no replay on Foxtel, watch the Colonwood game again.

Then watch the replay of Watts' goal last week another 200 times while getting drunk

Go to bed some time tomorrow morning

Wake with hangover.

Eat box of Panadol

Toast with Vegemite

Maybe spew from hangover

Watch todays game..... maybe twice

Watch the Watts goal another 100 times while finishing bottle from last night

Probably spew again

If not in a coma, i might watch the replay again.

Recover on Tuesday while watching the replay (Maybe twice)

Life is good being a Dees supporter.

:P

Bahahahaha :)

From the age

Oscar and Tom McDonald had among the most productive days for McDonald brothers anywhere since the creation of the quarter pounder with cheese. 

 

Not bad

Melksham played a selfless game, did very well shutting down JJ and got 15 touches himself and kicked a goal.

Thats off the back of his strong tagging job on Pendlebury in the first half last week, and 32 possession the week before in the win over Gold Coast.

The odds of a 19 year old kid @ pick 25 giving us more than Melksham is right now are very low, so Im gonna go ahead and say thanks Essendope for that trade, we needed a seasoned body more than another kid now that we are pushing for finals.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    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
