leave it to deever

I thought it might have been "strawbs" but you might be right. Game has changed for the better. Agreed. Nonetheless thanks grinter and ditteritich and schwarter for the memories.

Courage personified.

Without condoning violence, does anyone remember this guy around the 50 second mark? The game sure has changed. A Melbourne fan could go home knowing they lost the game but hey we won the fight.

Apparently I am. Damn that's bad news. Hes had a tough run.

A few calls for Petracca and he probably deserves a go as Hunt , Harmes and Oliver have had one. However most agree that Viince and Garlett are must ins, so its unlikely 3 changes are made. If they are and Vdb gets in, they will no way make four. Great to have options. Last few years we were scratching our heads wondering howe (pun intended) some players kept getting picked.

From what I understand Terlich is knocking on the door.

Watts must be doing something right if they are talking about him. Keep up the great work Jack. This club is proud of you. Your strength of mind to keep going past all the cr@p thrown at you over the years. is incredible. You are a leader of men now and Duhwayne is a #$%^head.

I believe we are capable. I don't believe we played above ourselves. Three great games out of four suggest we played below ourselves against the Bombers. I suggested before however that this team would more likely be knocking on the final eight with ten to eleven wins. I don't believe this is negative at all but an honest appraisal (beer goggles off) of an emerging young team still working on its game plan and top 22. We have clearly improved.It is still way too early to talk of finals. If however we win the next 2 against Richmond and St Kilda, then maybe we are a serious chance. Yet given we haven't won 2 in a row for so long, 3 in a row seems a long way off. However, as the old saying goes "a week is a long time in footy and two weeks is even more." Nice to see the hope and optimism around. We deserve it.

Yep and revenge against norf for the bad umpiring this year. At least we are a chance this year for your 2 on the list

I have a feeling Hogan is due to kick a bag soon. Hopes its this weekend.

Agreed. Bombers loss is still fresh and we were lucky to beat the giants. Great comeback and effort the last 2 weeks. I dont however believe we willl make the 8 but hope we knock on the door. I think we will amass around ten wins and launch next year. Love to be proved wrong.

when did we win 2 in a row?

Whip a chopstick out and stick it in his neck

Whats the bet it bites mfc on the bum first. Bloody Hell I used to a glass half full kind of guy.

I said after the gws win that all comments about how good we are by the players and staff should be censored until we have strung at least 2 wins in a row on the board. I got quite a few nods of agreement from that. We have so far too go that we need to pull our heads in and let the oppostion do all the talking.

I want to. My cash is sitting here ready and waiting. If we beat Richmind, then absolutey. If we dont I still believe we have improved. We may not play finals but I believe we will have more than seven wins.

With the odd exception, Salem played very well. He does a lot of little things that add up. He was tough at the ball and has football smarts.

Anyone up to throwing chopsticks at the tigers players.

Dont melbourne supporters have a soft spot for richmond?. They were always our co tennants. More to the point hey have suffered like us. Maybe we do but just dont like there supporters.

Garland howe cross and newton is the lesser side of that side.

Yep thats what makes the dons loss so bad. Two wins and going the distance against north in their tassie fortress is a good start.

I agree there were some bad turnovers. Having said that and everyone saying how poor cwood were, they did tackle quite a lot and very hard. What Im saying is their tackling pressure wasnt bad and the turnovers were on par for that. Full credit to us for fighting through the pressure the pies put on us in the third quarter.

Yep it gone too far and needs to be fixed.

And watts is starting to believe in his strenght, skill and self
