  1. Enjoy the New Balance products, some of the sizing a little odd but enjoy the mad discount we get
  2. coming out defending now https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-08-15/its-become-a-bit-archaic-demon-concerns-over-priority-pick-system
  3. Hunt with the assist for OMacs first goal. What can't he do?
  4. Is Hunt injured or being dropped? Was curious who'd win this race Petracca 22 Hunt 20
  5. There's always a whipping boy on a sporting team, social media amplifies this. There seem to be quite a lot of 'targets' this season (Frost, Omac, ANB, Stretch, Preuss, JKH, Wagners, Lewis, Spargo, Weideman, garlett etc ). Is this more of an indictment on our list or our expectations? Or is it just an online pile-on due to frustrations at our season
  6. Please ask what he thinks about the nickname Fritzl
  7. I'm not sure about this, accurate kicks into the F50 aren't part of our current game plan ?
  8. The issue in that photo has been here all season, always going to the ball and leaving the man. that combined with accusations of laziness and work ethic, how much of it is down to (what may be) a potentially flawed game plan? Or have they just simply downed tools for the year?
  9. Whilst this thread no doubt makes us sad, Let's predict the rest of our season; Slightly easier task Final Position for Melbourne - Melbourne Best & Fairest winner- Melbourne Top Goal Scorer - (top 5 listed for your reference) Christian Petracca (21) Jayden Hunt (19) Tom McDonald (18) Bayley Fritsch (15) James Harmes (12) Sam Weideman (11) Jake Melksham (10) At least we have surpassed 2014 winner Chris Dawes (20 goals)
  10. To quote the great Mark Bosnich "Stats are like a bikini, they show a lot, but not everything.”
  11. A trade for someone who isn't over the HILL ?
  12. Whenever I watch Melbourne there are some things that I know are going to happen; Mids all leave their man to become ball magnets Long bombs into the forward 50. These are expected, Frost gives us the unexpected so he is an excitement machine, no one knows what he will do next. He's a wildcard that must be treasured.
  13. This quote is thrown about a bit in England but it's very relevant for our 2019 season “It’s not the despair, Laura. I can take the despair. It’s the hope I can’t stand. John Cleese (as Brian Stimpson in the film Clockwise)
  14. I was asked this the other day, I think the heat is slowly being turned up with some of the recent comments from commentators etc.
  15. I just like how we've gone from having no fit defenders to no fit forwards. topsy-turvy'd our initial problem.
  16. hopefully next year we won't see him in the back-line at all. Hopefully this year is an abnormality injury wise. For some reason my dumb brain has given him the nickname Fritzl, which is not the best nickname to be honest.
  17. Trade him in a deal to North for Ben Brown lol. I like like Preuss, perfect situation to try them both in the same team now given TMAC is out. let Preuss EAT
  18. Predicted best 22s at the Start of The Season, a what could have been in an alternative universe. Still curious what KK can bring the table long term B: Oscar McDonald, Steven May, Neville Jetta HB: Christian Salem, Jake Lever, Michael Hibberd C James Harmes, Jack Viney, Kade Kolodjashnij HF: Alex Neal-Bullen, Sam Weideman, Jake Melksham F: Charlie Spargo, Tom McDonald, Christian Petracca FOLL: Max Gawn, Clayton Oliver, Angus Brayshaw I/C: Nathan Jones, Aaron vandenBerg, Jordan Lewis, Mitch Hannan [Source: AFL] B: N.

  19. Gets a run of form and then he's out for the year. 2019 has been disastrous! Hopefully it sets us up for a nice run at 2020 though with a softer fixture and a hopefully "fresher" squad
  20. was a nice 109 point flogging last year, hopefully they'll sell commemorative DVDs of the game.
  21. still on crutches this morning, Unleash Preuss!
  22. 'long bombs inside 50 rather than lowering the eyes.' - that's most of our squad tbh
