I can enjoy watching the footy shows again. It's been hard going for a few weeks

 

 

We are back baby.

Toppermost of the poppermost.

38000. Great crowd

See that bloke not getting involved in the song because he's a modest professional. That's our coach.

Take note media and start laying off.

My god Jack Viney is fun to watch when he plays like that.

I’m going to write a longer post about that game when I get on the train…

but if that performance didn’t make you love your footy team a little bit more than you thought was possible I feel sorry for you.

That was a 20 goal win masquerading as a 10 goal win. Vines off the chain. If we’re still loading then good luck to the rest of the comp. 

That’s more like it! Most Melbourne game this season.

Probably the most enjoyable game this season. It felt like a complete performance except for the first 5 minutes

Great all round team performance. Viney was huge, Jackson really stepped up as the first ruck, lever back to his best, and all the role players really did their job.
 

And, maybe Weideman has found his role to play in the team. Obviously Max is out so chances are it will be him to make way, but he played his role well and if he can put in that sort of effort whenever he gets his chance then it’ll go a long way for him. Something to really build off for him. Hopefully it’s not a once off. 

Back 6 looked good

Viney was a monster 

Credit to Dogga for a great ruck performance

Our 2nd tier guys really lifted

Clarry is next level 

Just for those in the PJ thread commenting on his lack of HO to advantage...turns out hit outs don't highly correlate to clearances

37,728 which is not bad

Wowee that was fun to watch.

The weed did good 

Max being interviewed said he wants to play next week!

That second quarter was as brutal as I've seen from any team in any era.
