Pretty underwhelming qtr by both teams. Happy to be in front.

I will be honest I dead set thought you were taking the [censored].

I wish Spargo could kick it as far as Rich.

I assume there’s no rule for push in the back anymore.

Is Hibberd any chance to miss through injury? Looked to hobble of the ground near the end of the game.

Some of the worst umpiring you will see. Really hope GC hang on.

I agree with a lot of your points here and right now it’s hard to pin point the main reason because we have a few issues. I know your not a Tom Sparrow fan and that’s fine but he was one of only a few today that were any good. For me our biggest issue is mindset, we simply aren’t working hard enough for long enough and I think our leaders have been poor particularly the last two weeks. Again people we smack me for bringing up Collingwood but the buy in they have at the moment is exactly like us in 21. Yes they will lose games like we did but I feel you can trust them unlike us at the moment. I personally don’t have an issue with Petty playing as a forward but I don’t like Lever playing as an actual key position back, it’s just not his go and throws our backline out of balance. I was not a fan of bringing Grundy into the team, not because he’s not a good player because he is. But again I feel our team balance is out, with Grundy, Gawn, Mc Donald or Brown all playing if where not dominating clearances or marking the ball good teams will chop us up on rebounds. Yes we needed another ruck option but would have preferred using the Grundy money on a key position player. Our clearance work is also a massive issue particularly when your playing two big ruckman. It feels like where not just losing them but letting far to many centre clearances out without even touching the ball or the opposition player putting added pressure on the backline.

You need to play pretty well to beat GC nowadays.

Lever on either of Harry or Curnow is a scary thought. The way our clearance work is going they will get plenty of opportunities.

If there was ever a team based out of Darwin, I could understand the AFL demanding a stadium with a roof. Not so much Hobart.

Haven’t watched it but some guys at work recommended this week.

We are making too many bad decisions with the ball in our hand and not making the most of our forward entries. Really hope one of our leaders steps up to dominate the remainder of the game.

I am not a parent but I would be telling the sick kid to get stuffed.

I literally have a bay to myself in the MCC.

Lol. Yeah extra nervous today.

Just arrived at the ground, my first game for the year, I didn’t see us win live last year hope that run ends today.

Here’s hoping we smash them next week, then they sack Voss.

The MRO lottery will be interesting from this game.

Yeah that’s the point I was trying to make their shocking.

You think that then you watch Fox tomorrow and they will have Kelli, Dwayne and Derm and you then realise there just as bad.

Unless their playing Essendon always want them to lose.

Didn’t your husband go to the Swans or Lions final last year?

Last week he absolutely was in our best players but personally I don’t think he is critical to our team. I really hope we see Rivers, Bowey or Salem given time on the wing this weekend.

Not sure I rate Hunter as highly as the Walyalup supporters.

I will put my hand up as potentially one of those members who has a reserved seat near you and doesn’t use it. I am also a MCC/ MFC member and prefer sitting there, although I may sit in my reserved seat on Kings Birthday to try and avoid Collingwood supporters as much as possible and hopefully give another Melbourne supporter a chance to get in.
