  1. There's one back from Viney. Viney and Salem our best today.
  2. Jetta is brave, but he's cooked. His only weapon now is putting his head over it, which he is doing to his detriment. Man how I wish Bennell had nailed that goal...
  3. Also. Trac's vision is the best I have ever seen from a Melbourne player, bar none.
  4. Would love to get a goal in a manner other than off-the-ground-in-the-middle-of-the-goalsquare style, but I'll take being level right now. Weideman and Oscar McDonald giving us a great deal of structure. Weid needs to figure out how to kick a ball straight when it's dewey. Jackson will be some player. I thought he would show nothing this year, but the fact that he's doing everything he's doing with so few games and so far off his ideal body shape gives me a lot of faith he'll be an amazing, one-of-a-kind type player over the journey. A true "every position" player.
  5. You know how you had that Depression-era grandparent or great grandparent who would never throw anything out and had creative ways to stretch every penny. In 60 years Gen Z3 will have a bunch of germophobes for grandparents or great-grandparents.
  6. I think you'll find Kossi has some of HIS footwork…if my biology lessons have taught me anything at all.
  7. Well we are Melbourne after all.
  8. There once was a cursed football team Who played quite alright in '18 But then went to crap and are tryna get back To a level we've, just, rarely seen.
  9. In the late nineties where it died forever.
  10. Jackson playing AFL footy in 2020 smacks of desperation. Only excuse is this is a Mickey Mouse season and there is no second-tier comp in which to play him. So…probs a good decision in the end.
  11. He seems pretty awful when Lever's not in the side. I think Lever helps him play a lot better.
  12. I don't want to wait another 7 years.
  13. Jeez I musta missed that. Then again I'm not getting paid hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to see it, so I have an excuse.
  14. If I had an agenda (and Clarkson does, just as we all do), I would play to that agenda. In this case the agenda is benefited by Melbourne being "a Finals Side", crippled by the rules. Of course we all know that's a laughable proposition. Melbourne? Good? Meh-heh-heh-heh!!! what a larf!!!
  15. Unfortunately I can't foresee a situation where Tom McDonald will ever take a mark again. I just don't see how it could occur.
  16. Feels weird playing a game this weekend. Usually we play once every 3-6 months.
  17. Why not just play chess. Take 21 players off the bench. Make teams of 1. Opening up space, causing players to think harder to check. If checked without a move, it's a game loss. 21 players in reserve, for any who can't get up if sick.
  18. I regularly clear both my nostrils of snot while running even in Summer. Crap tweet.
  19. I mean I'll take it but by gosh and by golly what a train wreck this club is.
  20. Can I just say I picked Trent Rivers to play 22 games this year. I will be wrong only on a technicality.
  21. "I'm impressed." – Me, about every boss I've ever had
  22. I dreamed last night that Max Gawn decided he would leave the Dees to go elsewhere. If Moloney hadn't done the exact same thing (in real life), I might have considered voting Moloney over Gawn just based on that alone. Reality hits, however, and I must vote Gawn. #KarmaIsABitch
