Just imagine, Clarrie and Fritta are to come into that team to strengthen it...truly!

Didnt even think of those two today, just scary for the opposition.

Viney just outstanding again 

He gives his all every time. He lives and breathes Melbourne. 

[Gorgoroth 12,963]

What a game. At 3/4 time I had n9 idea how this would land but it was one of the best games to watch. Cracking contest.

No!  he is the perfect Sub.

[BDA 22,755]

Great fun that was

petty jvr and melks brilliant.

max second half was immense 

we ran out the game easily. Runners everywhere 

look out comp. We’re gunning for the flag

go dees

[Red But Mostly Blue 4,547]

We didn’t start all that great, and it’s probably not ideal that we leaked nearly 100 points…

BUT

We were challenged by a team fighting for finals/with momentum and we steered the ship. No easy games from here. 

Importantly, we found our way to goals and it was exhilarating at times. Petty and Melksham were simply awesome. 

Even more importantly, very quietly, can you feel us cranking up??! 

CAN YOU!!??? 

Go Dees 🔥

Who was the Turkey yesterday that asked if Petty had proven himself fwd?

Does today help.

[Deeoldfart 8,033]

That was a finals type match and both teams had everything to play for.  We prevailed comfortably in the end after being headed several times.  That’s what the fair dinkum contenders do!  Bring on September!

[Jibroni 5,004]

Great last quarter and Captain Max was amazing.

Good to see JVR play is best game thus far.

Same! We're going to be steamrolling them with Clarrie and Fritsch. 

[Gorgoroth 12,963]

Sparrow, Clarrie and Fritta make that team better on paper, pig too. Going to have some selection headaches soon.

Credit to goody. Even though Tommo had a tough one, he was rewarded this weekend. And thanks for trialling Petty once more.

Petty and Melksham unbelievable

Leading to receive puts the icing on a great team. Just watch the Melk, Petty and JVR - they all won because of it!

The momentum changed in the 4th quarter. I think we came out to really make a statement. A hard fought comfortable win.

Petty not a forward hey???? 

Watch the” Petty can’t play forward” posters jump on the bandwagon now.

Max was sensational again and Viney is our bull.

Maybe Binman is right too with the loading, as we certainly ran away from them in the last.

Hopefully we can now run over teams, right through to the flag.

[Deebauched 1,220]

Melbourne 20 goals.

Can fwd line improve?

Fritsch breaks down the door and says HI.

He is, but we are also a tall forward short.

See how many intercept marks Richmond got today in our forward line.

Keep Tomlinson back, drop Harmes/Woewodin/Jordon and move Smith forward.
