Jones - dynamic and consistent Hogan - quieter but focused Oliver - prolific and clean Tyson - a momentum killer T.McDonald - outstanding first half Hannan - always looked dangerous Neal-Bullen - finally justified retention Salem - silky smooth mover Spargo - provided forward pressure Brayshaw - continued impressive form Melksham - clever and unselfish Gawn - provided first use Hibberd - back to best Harmes - prolific ball winner Petracca - just a game Fritsch - a classy mover Jetta - reliable when needed Lever - safe and steady Lewis - the consummate professional O.McDonald - almost always safe Vince - consistently good decisions Weidemann - another irrelevant game

It’s not country football?‍♂️

Hogan - continued outstanding season T.McDonald - a significant impact Weideman - junk time possessions Neal-Bullen - replace with Viney Petracca - was obviously underdone Jones - impressive captain’s game Brayshaw - career best game Gawn - was masterful again Harmes - important but careless Oliver - back to best Spargo - love his endeavour Tyson - prolific but wasteful Hannan - made an impact Melksham - not as potent Fritsch - lots to like Hibberd - returned to best Hunt - effective but lacking Jetta - brave and reliable Lever - improving each game Lewis - professional and important O.McDonald - underrated and important Vince - barely wasted possessions

Hannan - pace and movement Spargo - feisty and clever Gawn - made a statement Brayshaw - important second half Fritsch - some exciting plays Hogan - never moved freely Neal -Bullen - continued poor season Harmes - overplays his abilities Hibberd - found energy again Hunt - displayed more run Jetta - statistics belied effectiveness Jones - wonderful captain’s game T.McDonald - an impressive return O.McDonald - steady and safe Tyson - often butchered momentum Lever - steady and effective Lewis - a mixed bag Vince - just a game Oliver - was quiet again Salem - enjoyed more freedom Weideman- quiet when needed Melksham - has rediscovered confidence

Jones - never stopped trying Jetta - just a shadow McDonald - disciplined and impressive Hibberd - brave but flawed Oliver - mostly wasted possessions Salem - soft under pressure Tyson - missing second half Hogan - played with heart Stretch - just a plodder Brayshaw - just a game Harmes - continued poor season Petracca - talents are wasted Vince - game has passed Neal-Bullen - irrelevant and fading Gawn - effective but friendless Kent - quiet before injury Lever - 4 solid quarters Wagner - disappeared after first Weideman -little to excite Hunt - continues downward spiral Garlett - waste of space Melksham - took his chances

Jetta - invisible and irrelevant O.McDonald - tried but overwhelmed Hibberd - continued disappointing season Vince - steady but slowing Frost - little to commend Lewis - a total liability Gawn - our only winner Jones - probably broke even Neal-Bullen - little to commend Oliver - prolific but ineffective Melksham - gave us nothing Hogan - one great quarter Kent - an impressive game Bugg - an embarrassing liability Harmes - slow and ineffective Lever - continued to disappoint Petracca - conditions inhibited performance Brayshaw - an impressive return Fritsch - tried but limited Garlett - not on field Wagner - was hardly seen Salem - never stopped trying

?????

You keep promising that you’d never read my 3 worders again ?

Jones - continued excellent season Bugg - bobbed up effectively Kent - an encouraging return Garlett - no heroics today Oliver - was surprisingly held Hogan - prolific all game Petracca - tough and dynamic Fritsch - some impressive touches Lewis - important but wayward Vince - steady in defence Melksham - struggling for form Salem - just a game Tyson - prolific but wasteful Wagner - increasing in confidence Frost - exciting but iffy Gawn - dominated the centre Harmes - tough but limited Hibberd - was disappointing again Jetta - just a shadow Lever - learning to adjust McDonald - made important decisions Neal-Bullen - didn’t show out

6 - Oliver - 4 consistently reliable quarters and his kicking is a weapon 5 - Garlett - finally back to the dangerous forward we love 4 - Hogan - 3 great quarters 3 - Petracca - exciting and inspiring all game 2 - McDonald - continues to defy criticism 1 - Jones - occasionally took wrong options but was reliable and effective

Jetta - livelier but careless Lever - just a game Hibberd - consistently gave drive Hunt - lacking customary drive McDonald - continued good form Jones - indefatigable and inspiring Gawn - dominant from centre Oliver - classy and consistent Vince - not a tagger Salem - ineffective on ball Neal-Bullen - had little impact Lewis - almost always solid Petracca - classy and impressive Pedersen - was rarely sighted Harmes - tough and effective Fritsch - classy and brave Garlett - perfect forward’s game Hogan - 3 great quarters Wagner - didn’t imbue confidence Bugg - tried but failed Tyson - was mostly reliable Melksham - was almost effective

6 - Gawn ( ruckwork was as dominant as 2016 ) 5 - Petracca ( we can rest assured that he has the motor ) 4 - Oliver ( prolific and he CAN kick) 3 - Jones ( if only others possessed his will to win ) 2 - Vince ( slow to start but become important) 1 - Lewis ( same as Vince )

Should I sue??

Jetta - loose and slow Lever - disappointing debut game Hibberd - looked disinterested early Hunt - poor first half McDonald - made no errors Jones - indefatigable and inspiring Gawn - dominant all game Oliver - maintained the rage Vince - better second half Salem - impressive first half Neal-Bullen - just lacks finesse Lewis - important but costly Petracca - outstanding 3 quarters Pedersen - was rarely involved Harmes - tried but limited Fritsch - cause for optimism Garlett - disappointingly often missing Hogan - had little impact Wagner - just lacks skill Hannan - little peripheral awareness Maynard - out of depth Melksham - a huge disappointment

Much like Gary Lyon’s trite interview with Goodwin during the 1/2 time break in the StKilda match.

Fritsch<>Brad Green - both left footers - both strong overhead - both mercurial around goals - both have meticulously groomed hair

Ummm.. I have an opinion ?‍♂️

Yes I have , and I don’t mind it

I don’t understand why everyone is taking the station’s financial decision so personally. Hitchison has made huge decisions to enable his company to ultimately make a profit, and the sacked ,underperforming ‘talent’ were not part of his vision, no more, no less.

I met Robbie a number of times and he was always a modest, unassuming and courteous man, whose skinny, accountant-like demeanor belied a driven and passionate footballer who loved the Dees with an intense desire, and played the game as if his God- given talents were a reward for us mere mortals who could only marvel at his feats.

2 - Robbie

?‍♂️

He's paid to be a commentator not a Melbourne supporter. He wears his heart on his sleeve but there's no doubt he'd die for the club

From recollection , I believe the Ox even wore a bulky leather strapped brace around his knee during one of his comebacks, such was his desire to return

You once promised you'd never read my threads again?‍♂️
