I feel like I could cry solely because I got to watch a good, fun half of footy that made me excited about this team.

12.2. It's hard to believe.

Good kicking is good football.

Nice ovation for the boys coming off at halftime

Wow, we're in front and losing the free kick count 9 to 18.

Just great to watch us really competing and pressuring hard.

Keep the foot down boys.

4 qtrs please

We might score 60!

Bowey has been great & so efficient with the ball

Koltyn has provided a target and getting under the skin of a few freo players

Kozzie playing well

Petty wow genius to put him forward

Loving the run

Suns out, the G looks great & we're leading at half time

Hopefully we can keep it going

All I have ever wanted with this team is that they are competitive. This is the first time I have seen this for a long time.

Turners also doing OK down back

Nice to see we’ve remembered how to play footy.

Enjoyed Fullarton’s game so far. I don’t think he’s much of a marking tall but he gets involved in general play. I still think JvR is the long term answer but he hadn’t given a yelp, and if he’s not taking marks he does nothing.

Bowey’s been great so far. Best on for mine.

First quarter our pressure was 221 to Freo's 199. Nice to see us bring it and not be phased by the challenge!

The week I trade Petty out of my Supercoach...

Great improvement across the park, so good to see. Langford and Lindsay starting to look at home, Tholstrup catching up to the pace of the game, Fullarton a few errors but is playing a role.

2 things are importantly better: our transition from D50 to F50, and our forward system. Oh, and add our 82% disposal efficiency - doesn't hurt either.

Howes and Turner doing really well.

Amazing how much better things work when everyone brining effort first. Just need to see if they can keep it up as I don’t expect freo will give up

ABC radio commentators: no Kozzie is not auditioning for Freo. He’s a Melbourne player so please STFU

I look forward to the Is Petty a forward or backman discussion this week.

Like old El Paso - why not have both :.)

I want to see this hunger for the rest of the game and season!

No BS about love ins and hugging i want Thunder and brute force.

Interesting - apparently we've come out and had 4 goals (from centre bounce clearance?) in a half. We've only done that 3 times in ten years according to Fox Footy?

I'm watching from Puku bar in Ha Noi. I have to leave for my cousins wedding in 45 minutes so I'll miss the end but I'm loving this performance so far!

Well, this is an unexpected moment to be reminded of my ex.

Heard on radio he was having concussion assessment

Petty's efforts to not be out marked has been pretty awesome. His move forward has actually worked very well for Melbourne
