5 minutes ago, Wizard of Koz said: Yes I think you are right. Every week this thread gets more emotional and worse. It's more of an insight into the posters fragility than a reflection. It used to be quite interesting.
Well if I were paid more to produce this thread each week then perhaps I’d present more positive reviews.

8 minutes ago, Return to Glory said: You’ve given two players a positive review (of sorts) and yet we had two players less for most of the game and went down by four goals. Genuinely clueless assessments
Ridiculous comment.
We all know, but you, we were lucky not to lose by 15 goals.
Present your 3 word analysis to show me where I misjudged

Melksham - our only winner
Petracca - disposal was amateurish
Gawn - had negligible influence
Viney - tried but limited
Pickett - great last quarter
Bowey - tried but overwhelmed
Rivers - loose and disinterested
Turner - strong first half
Langford - needed longer break
Oliver - just a shadow
Chandler - irrelevant and uninvolved
Fritsch - seemingly without heart
Sparrow - another nothing game
McVee - little influence again
Petty - was actually missed
Langdon - not a tagger
Tholstrup - a year away
May - career is fading
Sharp - little to offer
Salem - regularly slowed momentum
Jefferson - two years away
Howes - unsighted before injury

I’d throw in Petty, AMW, others would have Jeffferson in. Mentha may develop, Culley may prove useful. Then you’ve potentially got Kalani White who could be a the next Sam Darcy or a bust.
There’s a really good start to a solid team but you wallow in whatever you enjoy wallowing in.

And you can remain delusional.
Furthermore, I prefaced my response by alluding to this year’s performances, so if your list was valid then why are we having a [censored] year?

8 minutes ago, Adam The God said: McVee, Windsor, Lindsay, Langford, Turner and Bowey is a pretty good start. Add JVR, Kolt and maybe even Picket's mate and we've got some good developing youth. Along with Chandler, Kozzy and Rivers on the next age bracket up.
Please advise whether you support Melbourne. Thanks very much.
On this year’s evidence I’d agree only on Lindsay, Langford, Turner and Bowey.
Hardly cause for celebration

51 minutes ago, Roost it far said: He’s coming to Melbourne who have promising young talent and some respectable veterans. Carlton have respectable veterans but no promising young talent. They’re on the fast road to irrelevance again and personally I’m loving having you alongside Essendon as long time losers.
Please advise who is the ‘promising young talent’ you speak of at Melbourne

Slightly off topic but relevant for those who’ve been harangued or abused by opposition supporters:
Some years ago we were playing the Magpies and as inevitability has it, I was surrounded by evil opposition supporters.
I’m pretty sure we were being trounced so when I made a negative comment aloud about a Collingwood player all hell broke loose.
A Collingwood player , Lockyer, was awarded a free kick and without hesitation I called out, ‘ get a real name Tarquin ‘(his actual first name ) I thought it was a pretty harmless request, but fists were raised in my direction not to mention the profound umbrage and verbal aggression that spewed forth .
At a quiet moment I let myself out😱
