Don’t really understand why we’d go with the Melk unless it’s to nurse him to 200

Toby is definitely next man in for mine, showed in the Hawks game he is AFL quality

I too would happily burn them to ash then put those same ashes in a rocketship and fire it into the sun: their 5 supporters were among the most derisive of us when they beat us for a decade and a half, payback time

Gee they gave us some smashings there in our wooden spoon era (not surprisingly)….I sat through them all would be nice to return the favour even if it is 8 years later

12 tackles against the Eagles, big effort!

Most of us have sat through a hell of a lot of losses and believe me they feel nothing at all like wins

This 100% We have a wonderful team chock full of stars the like of which we might not see again in a lot of our lifetimes - enjoy every win! I cant get my head around the minority who whinge either

I agree its important to keep young players flowing through the side no matter how well we are doing and this is the perfect week for a debutant against the youngest side in the comp - we havent had a first gamer since Bowey last year have we?

He's worth a good contract but we shouldn't completely throw our TPP structure out of whack to retain him....our recruiters are the best in the league, I'm confident we would do very well with high drafts picks received in a trade.

Our side seems to abhor losses with a passion I haven't ever seen from a Melbourne team (or few others) before - we find a way to win even when we aren't playing all that well, cant see us dropping a game to battling North this week

Glad we put the foot down in the last quarter and turned a boring 40 point win into 70+

Midfield could break all records for possession this week

Almost no point playing this match, award us the W, let the boys have a beer and come home

I’m old but I dont go that far back!

Hope we don’t go into lockdown mode today as I just eased $50 on Melb at -67.5

Weid might be the unluckiest player ever to not get a call up to the seniors if he ends up with a bag of 10

JVR must be getting close to a debut if there was a spot for him

WC aren’t even hiding it now are they??

“If the 8 half decent players WC have left play like it’s 2018, all the unheard of WAFL guys are on peptides and the entire Melbourne side have covid x bird flu, I think the Eagles can get it done”.

We’re playing a WAFL side with a couple of super rules players….Melbourne by 150+

Belting Gold Coast by nearly 100 last year really got our attacking game going, next 2 weeks the perfect opportunity for the the forward to cash in and get their confidence up

Should win this by 80+ looking at the 2 sides on paper

Angus should be stripped of his Melbourne Premiership medallion if he ever goes to Carlton! (only half joking)

The way the Eagles have played they haven’t earned much respect this season: we really should be flogging this very weak looking line up

Billy Birmingham (the 12th man) wrote Australiana for Austen Tayshus I wonder if he had his fingerprints all over this one too?
