Can’t rely on one player even a champion like Clarry…we’ll find a way to get some wins, I’m confident

We have an odd style this year try to soak up as much oppo attack as possible then run home hard…not sure it’s a great idea to let so many shots at goal though

Can barely lay a tackle in the game without it being looked at anymore

Hawks aren’t as bad as a lot of people seem to think they always give cheek at least for the first half of games…that said we should pull away after half time and win by 40+

The game is in ashes after this farcical decision

Me too, there's a small article in the paper about how much his run is contributing to our winning last quarters - he may not have pace but he has great endurance and doesn't stop running

We are also rotating heavily through the midfield to keep the guns fresh for our final quarter assault. The A team Trac Clarry Vines aren’t starting together in the centre anywhere near as much as last year, so the chemistry isn’t quite there yet with a host of new faces running through there. I think it’s the way to go as the team was completely burned out by finals last year

We still had 5 more scoring shots and 16 more i50s…

Fritter signed until 2026 too AFL: Bayley Fritsch signs contract extension with Melbourne until 2026 season (nine.com.au) Club doing an amazing job - what a contrast from the dark days when players couldnt get out quick enough

OH YEAH!

Amazes me we have supporters whinging we didn’t win by more or “bored” by the game! If you can’t enjoy a 90 point belting as a Melbourne supporter after what we went through from 2007-2013 I dunno what to say to you!

He did ok as a depth player but likely to be straight back out with Petty fit next week

Very enjoyable training drill

Handy lead.

Handy lead.

If we bring the fierce heat and attitude we win well….turn up half interested like we did against the Bombers and it will be a struggle

Great to see...love ANB he always looks so pumped when he kicks a goal, grabs the jumper etc

LDU out for North: big loss for them

Loving what Brodie is bringing to the side but I can't agree he's a better centre bounce ruckman than Max - people forget when the big skipper is at his best no one can dominate the way he does in the middle

If Kade is out injured this week this is the perfect game for Kozi to go nuts with a bag of 6, isolate him in the front half he will run rings around the North defense

I hope we don’t go in against a side coached by Alistair Clarkson expecting we can just turn up for an easy win….will be another gruelling battle off a short break

No idea if we will win but we certainly won’t if we play that bad in the second half…unbelievable fumbling, poor decision making and general rubbish footy

Not super 100% confident about tonight being that easy - we really should win but a couple of Tigers mainly Dusty and Bolton if they get off the chain worry me.... I'll tip us by 25 in a solid but not spectacular win

Reckon Schache the sub with the plan for Max to play about 2 and a half quarters

Great looking team on paper this week really should win pretty easily (assuming Gawn and Oliver are ok)
