Ouch. The thread title has changed to "vs Carlton" at half time. Over to you, Sydney...

Surely the club appeals the JVR suspension. Was graded medium impact, McStay played out the game could argue it down to low impact surely?

We can but I don’t think we will. A week for that is pretty right. It was definitely not a necessary action, and McStay had to go to the rooms for an assessment. 

I’d give him a trophy if he did it to Cox tho. Wasn’t worth it on McStay, he’s a spud.

Grundy is so inept as a forward, that I think bloody tomlinson would offer more playing there.

This is a guy who played as a pure forward for Casey, looked so completely lost that they gave up at HT and played him ruck.

He nerfs Gawn when he plays, which is an outcome we simply can't afford.

Schache is not contested enough. So... either swing tomlinson or heck even Turner there, back in Spargo and a small forward line, just PLEASE don't play Grundy. Please.

Carlton are in much better touch than Collingwood. Hope our loss last night won’t be seen as a what if

[Fanatique Demon 2,646]

Right now, we’d struggle to beat Carlton.

[Fanatique Demon 2,646]

Might have written too soon. Swans back in touch.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,219]

I hope David King is in the media this week saying how Melbourne should get 75% of the seats against Carlton because it's our home game 🤨

McKay appears concussed so  (depending on Jesse Hogan’s mate, the Carlton doctors assessment) should miss next week.  
Which may change out defensive set up

Now that I think about it, the Swans player did headbutt his fist.

Harmsey did his hammy this morning in the scratch match against Carlton reserves.

While I don’t wish any player any injuries from us or the opposition they need to think outside the box and become inventive. Harmes while a good servant and loyal his style of football gas been surpassed.

Appeal, should have got an extra week for stupidity.

Watching Parker deep forward against Carlton, Trac plays deep on him.

carlton not dealing with Sydney taking the game on or the slingshot 

I haven’t seen enough of him, but could Disco play tall fwd roll to bring it to ground.

Apparently played forward today and played well?

They’ll beat us at clearance and pump it forward, sheesh, could get ugly

Feeling better after seeing Sydney fight back. Should beat the Blues comfortably

The formula is so clear from these two finals:

1. Attack from minute one, instead of when you're already multiple goals behind
2. Kick goals instead of behinds (duh), i.e., score when you have momentum
3. Nope just two.

3. Have a forwardline with, wait for it, forwards
