Out - Tomlinson, Baker In - Weid, Sparrow If Fritta gets rubbed out then Chandler or Harmes.

Could not kick a drop punt that [censored] head.

Bloke plays with zero intensity. Like watching someone in slow motion.

Best 6 possession game I reckon I’ve seen.

Just trudged home as [censored] as a mule from Eltham Station. It was a bizarre experience tonight. I went in slightly nervous, but un-Melbourne like calm before the game. I expected a loss but was prepared to wear it knowing we were 5-0. I just wanted a strong performance and to get within 3 goals In the first 15 minutes I prepared myself for the absolute worst and for a barrage for messages from Tigers mates who I had been baiting all week. Well...FMD. All of a sudden the feeling I’ve had for the past 5 weeks overwhelmed me. The feeling of confidence in knowing the boys would apply relentless pressure at all times causing turnovers, in-turn linking up and hitting targets just warmed the cockles. We actually made Richmond look stupid. They didn’t even look like scoring and when they did we had an extra man back to mop up their disgusting bile. Hats off to all the boys on tonight’s effort. Christian Salem should have won the medal but well done to Trac. Special mention to the young boys Dogga who (in my opinion) changed the game in the second and Rivers. Both ahead of their time. Go you Demons! I’m off to eat dim sims and burnt chips.

This bloke turned the tide of the game in the second quarter.

I finally got around to renewing my MCC/MFC membership this afternoon. That’s our fourth for the household. Girl I spoke to said they’ve been very busy.

Let’s hope Petty never has to play again.

Can confirm this continued on after the game as Selwood attempted to have some dinner.

Nah not really Pickett. I like your training reports after all...

I’m hoping for every goal Fritsch kicks, a poster who has requested he be traded, be banned. Terrific, thanks.

Let’s face facts. We were never challenged...even when they got within 12 points. I’m an eternal MFC pessimist and at not one point today did I feel we were ever going to lose the game. Not only that, I got to sink [censored] I’m at my seat in the MCC! What a day.

Just said the same thing to a couple of mates of mine. Without trying to sound like some sort of [censored], I implored them to give him time. Despite size, he has all the attibributes to become an elite small forward. He showed all of this in 2018 yet fallen to the wayside. So important to our team right now. He forward entries and tackling pressure are crucial.

Not a lot to add, but currently sitting in the MCC on my 8th pint. Copped a spray from two attractive Geelong supporting girls as they left before the final siren. I’ve analysed the incident and cannot imagine what bought that sort of behaviour on towards myself and my Melbourne supporting friend aside from our verbal contempt for everything Geelong today. I feel so at ease...go Dees!!!

Must be trying to find the lid.

Can we at least start a petition to have Dermott Brereton removed from broadcasting?

Agreed. But the way I see it, a tough game that results in a 34 point win is fairly impressive whichever way you look at it.

I just opened the microwave door after Kozzys goal without touching it with my hands. You do the math.

Unbelievable game from two A grade teams. The crowd behind Bruce as he was running onto the ball at the end reminded me of Hannan’s run against Geelong in 2018. Gave me goosebumps.
