Jeez mate, get a grip. Who cares about the umpires. They’re the same every week, why let it soil the mood?

Just want a reasonable shake mate

Tom McDonald's conduct after receiving that elbow to the jaw from Dane Zorko was exemplary. He pushed back and Zorko staged a fall. Macca then leaned over the prostate Zorko and told him the time of day. Effen AWESOME. After that the umpire awarded Macca the free kick and reported Zorko. MACCA...UNCOMPROMISING...TOUGH...ALL CLASS. Well done Tom McDonald!

He also offered him an arm to help him up

Petty was important, he gave McStay a bath. 

Getting better each week. Could teach a few how to one-grab mark (Weid, ...).

I'm speechless..

To the point of tears..this is what it's like to support a genuine top team of the competition.

Simon Goodwin you are the man. The boys run through walls for you and you deserve every ounce of credit coming your way. Went through a family separation and all the talk was he was next on the chopping block. Kudos Mr Goodwin.

Great fight back tonight. Midfield was getting dominated up to half time (Petracca aside). They really switched on on the second half and won the contest.

Our leaders all stood up and got us back tonight. For years we’ve had the talent but lacked the leadership. Now we’ve finally got leadership after years of searching and look at the difference!

The emergence of our roles players, the energy of our youth, and the consistency of the A graders has been absolutely supreme. 
 

We can defend, attack and play tempo footy. We can be slick and we can dominate in close.

That was super impressive.

Make no mistake, one of the best Dees wins for a long time. Looked down and out at half time against a very strong Brisbane side. Kudos to them for the first half performance. 

Which is why the win was so damn sweet. To come back and put on a complete 2nd half clinic was extremely satisfying. Love this team. 

Yep, that second half was one of the best I've ever seen from a Melbourne team.
Saying that, we played so poorly in the first that we should have been 6 or 7 goals down but that's not the kind of team we are anymore.
In some ways that first half and only being down 20 points set us up.

When we switch on, we are just unstoppable now. Just an unbelievable team when we run hard. 
This team is getting me so drunk this year.

Thinking about an 8 hour drive to the SCG next Monday. 

Congrats to everyone at the ground tonight, you sounded great.

Odd feeling but even down I thought we had another gear.

And we did.

The moment they went short and wide I knew it was game over.

Brissy are sharp, and hit us hard. But it was unsustainable.

Too strong. Too dedicated. Too talented.

i love this team

I know we’ve had a lot of wins so far (I feel weird saying that!) but for me that is season defining. It’s one thing to win when everything is working the way you want, it’s a totally other thing to flip the narrative of a match against really quality opposition. 

I haven’t been able to watch much of it due to poor internet over here but fair to say I’m really going to enjoy watching this replay. Looking purely at the numbers I love that we were able to flip the game in clearances and contested possessions. Given the year we’re having you almost could’ve forgiven the players at half time to say, “well this is just an off night” but they stuck their heads in and gave everything a red hot crack. 

There has been plenty of occasions we as Melbourne fans have been utterly ashamed and humiliated. Today I couldn’t be prouder.
