We played such a laborious game style tonight once it opened up in the last quarter we got split in half

We are very well placed to attack the second half of the year, midfield and backline are on top of their game after a couple of quieter weeks and few injuries. Just have to get the forward line to finish off a little better and we are right in the hunt for flag #14

Our turnover game looked fantastic today we were getting the ball in really dangerous attacking positions just a shame we couldn’t finish off all that good work…still I agree with Goody that will come, all in all a very enjoyable day at the G

Last week there were quite a few Carlton supporters in the RedLegs area too…should ban oppo colours in the non-guest premium areas

Dominated the game but the finishing geez we will beat the Pies tho!

Cripps can’t be anywhere near 100% he couldn’t walk at the end of last weeks game

Hmmmm no idea if we’ll win this one

Gotta stay positive it’s a long season and still a lot of footy to go to!

I must be the only one who thinks just coz we’re lost a couple of close games it’s not season over….the boys can lift

Disappointing effort we really need to fix our stoppages somehow…Goody so obsessed with the turnover game we don’t play any other way

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.
