This is getting to the point where I just want to turn it off and find out the result in about 45 minutes.
-
None of our selection choices today have done much for us unfortunately.
-
And it's gone. In weather like this you need a backstop to stop goals like that.
-
Go Buggy! Go Demons. Good wet weather footy there. Kent gets an important hand in to turn it over. That was his goal too.
-
This weather is on our side, but the scoreline definitely isn't.
-
Brilliant effort one-on-one there from Jack Watts. That is exactly what we needed after half-time. Exactly. And he misses. Oh god this is just not our day.
-
Yeah. That's what we need: Brad Miller. Of course, he does have the best finals performance by a Melbourne player in the last 10 years. Slim pickings there though.
-
Can I blame him for falling over straight after then?
-
Question: Would you trade the Hawthorn win of two weeks ago for a victory over Essendon and one today over the Blues? We'd be even with North on points, but we wouldn't have seen that groundbreaking win against the most-hated of hated flogs Hawthorn.
-
It really didn't. He stood exactly where he was and realised only too late that he wasn't in the right spot. He still would have marked it if he'd jumped at the right time.
-
This halftime break is a chance for our new leaders to really set a standard for what's acceptable and what's not. Has Roos truly changed our culture?
-
Can't tell if that's sarcasm or not, but do you really think Wiederman is a better option right now that Cam Pedersen?
-
Weeds isn't ready. Pedersen would have nabbed that one.
-
We've been shocking this game, but the response and frustration from players like Gawn, Hogan, Vince, Clarry and others shows me that this team has the hard core that even the finals Dees of the Daniher years didn't have.
-
With everything that's happened in this game, Carlton is still Carlton. We will be a chance all day because of that fac.
-
Good strategy from Gawn there. Sick of opposition players sharking your taps? Just blast the farkin' thing a mile away with your fist.
-
Clint Bizket currently pulling his hair out as Bernie doesn't get back off the mark. Oliver marks and gets the fifty. This kid is an absolute team-lifting gem of a player.
-
The first 10 minutes of every quarter is the Blues because of their speed. The second half is our because of our endurance. We need to maximise that.
-
Hanging on with our fingernails here...
-
Hogan is lightyears ahead of Wiederman at the moment.
-
If Paul Roos tells us our players were tired, I'm gonna spew.
-
Stretch needs to change his boots. For a bloke whose strength is his agility, he has the turning circle of a truck today.
-
Fair to say I'm not happy with that first quarter. We pegged it back a little there at the end, but considering what's potentially at stake for us today we're just going nowhere near the right intensity.
-
Stretch has panicked a couple of times today. He's been great this year but awful today. Nearly cost us two goals today already. Also, can Bernie Vince be moved on to Gibbs or Cripps for a hard tag?
-
Spark up dees. That was the goal we needed. A real lifter for us after dominating the last 5 minutes.
