Weid is as affective as McCartin and that ain't saying much. Bring back Pedo.

I didn’t even know he was out there, this can’t be helping his confidence.

Hogan is a beast 

[The Chief 636]

Got howled down by the nuffies on here last week saying we should drop Weideman.  Open your eyes, he is so far from AFL level it’s laughable.

[SFebes 4,692]

In: Viney, Garlett

Out: ANB, Tyson/Weideman

Why is the Etihad surface a goat track again?

Game is closer than the score shows thanks to their kicking. We are over possessing and too many cute kicks but moving the ball more aggressively than we have all year. Brayshaw and Tyson both been very good but both have had some clangers. Our forward smalls play too high and we aren’t capitalising at the drop of the contest in 50. Need to get a couple of early ones and put them away. 

[DSP 1,488]

I must be watching a diff game. Tyson has been caught twice and lucky not to be pinged for another few. Disposal has been average.

 

Better 2nd half, but he has to get rid of ball quicker and cleaner.

[Jaded No More 57,821]

The score line definitely flatters us. We are about even. Only difference is they can’t kick.

Yeah totally agree. We were reasonable in the first and pretty average in the second. Need to go for the first option a bit more. We also started to look a bit lost going into forward 50. Need to bring it down and get some forward pressure.

Harmes has been decent, ANB not so much. Loving Jones’ game again today. He’s been good his year.

Cmon Dees go on with it and build percentage!

If i can put it another way..Harmes...some good...a lil very good...rest meh... result..about even..

Nibbler..done some good things...stuffs his finish...a few bad boo-boos. Result.... negative.

[wizardinoz 2,015]

ANB should be sifting on the pine.

Strap yourselves in / so begins the infamous Melb fade out followed by 12 goals by st kilda and inaction by Goodwin

You're quickly becoming a poster not worth reading, timbo.

[Goffer 256]

Percentage time. 

[layzie 28,723]

We really aren't playing that well. Conceding soft goals as well. I want a ripping last quarter 

[Hardley Benial 460]

I've worked out McCartin's problem... He's not concussed.. he looses interest and occasionally goes to sleep.

[Pates 9,536]

I’m so angry with that last goal, so soft and yet I could feel it coming. 

[Gorgoroth 12,319]

Jones has been great today except for the two play ons when he shouldn’t have but at least he was having a go.

I know we need to have high expectations, but we're up by 6 goals.  Scratch that, 7.

You guys are ridiculous sometimes.  Opposition sides WILL kick goals and WILL have some good pieces of play.  That's footy.  We've just had far more of them.

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Hard to believe some of the negativity reading through this thread you would think we are 40 points down, not 50 pts up with a quarter to go. far cry from a few years ago hey...

Jones looks like a liability sometimes but jesus he works hard so impressive.

should never play on he is too damn slow

[DSP 1,488]

Weed kicks 2 and keeps his spot.

 

Cmon sweet, sweet %

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Ten goal win is a minimum.

Good to see Weideman take his chances.

ANB missed a tackle earlier on a player who was already being tackled by Jones. So in effect, he missed a tackle on a player who not only wasn’t moving but couldn’t move.
