leave it to deever

Except that marking has never been his strong suit even in the the dry He did make an effort and played ok for his first game back

I was impressed with our game today. It was a hell of a lot better than last week Two things stood out for me: 1.Our backline struggling which isnt news 2. Our lack of frwd pressure. Unlike the hawks we didnt trap the ball in our frwd line. Watts was good for 3 qrtrs but like Hogan did not lay one effective tackle Aside from Garlett taking another holiday we can hold our heads up imo

Well all things consdiered this game was almost lost at qurt time so good effort in the end against 3 prmship team and some iffy if not dodgy umpiring.

I think some teams are smarter IN milking head high frees

Im not saying the umps cost us today as technically the high tackes in 3rd qrt were there but hawks certainly ducked a lot and it changed the momentum when we were winning.

Hawtorn frwd pressure better than ours

the next hawk player to duck should get collected

hawks look tired

Hawks are like north and dogs with so many frees from iffy high tackles

umpires stuffing up a good game

thats bs

kent saves he day

Bernie playing smart with more kicking than handballs for a total of 21 possies

And we interupt this game due to a severe storm warning Match will be suspended and considered over According to the new duckworth lewis scheme....the dees have won Umps cars were washed away

Watts is better at ff. Hes a more accurate kick and it allows hoges to take marks around the ground

o macs been better than his bro

The melb of yesteryear wold have called it a day at quater time.

RIP Ali

garlett- one kick and thats it

I wouldn't be that surprised if we gave the hawks a run for their money. We play better with no expectations

Wouldn Fair enough but I'm not convinced you rate the guy more than most.

So in your rating should Grimes play at all? Or do you think hes finished?

Should do. Most of the boys have had a nice little holiday. Good to be back at the MCG and I hope we throw everything at them.

Yes, no one has seen a flag for 50 years but some supporters have been waiting that long and some have been waiting for only 20. The former are probably more frustrated was the point I wanted to make.
