We were parked on the grassy surrounds. I wasn’t the driver but since I paid for parking it was me who interacted with the parking guy. I asked the driver which road we used to enter the hellhole and she sent me this…

Lengthy question sent off to the Trust last night.

I’d have this number 1 on the improvement agenda.

If we’re not playing our best footy and not winning more than 60% of our games at the G, then we’re not making prelims and granny’s.

Makes you wonder how Melbourne would finish up if we played ALL our h&a games interstate mostly in Perth Adelaide and the Gabba.

Top 4 probably. MCG is a worry.

Death, taxes and Cotchin getting off at the tribunal

Umpire Nichols watching Max get a forearm to the head every marking contest and saying “nothing to see”. 
I looked at him in the centre when BBB got those inside 50  frees in the final quarter and he looked so peeved.   Never would have paid them himself.
