  1. Vince is doing a really great job on Mitchell. This is when he's at his absolute best. Tagging great players, annoying them and getting a lot of ball himself. And with that we hit the front!
  2. Paul Roos looks bored. Probably dreaming of Hawaii right now.
  3. Top show that one. Glad to see someone else likes it.

    The Draft

    Then hand out picks based on a random number generator. That will ensure equalisation of opportunity better than any other method.
  5. Time was a professional journalist wouldn't have to resort to pop culture references in order to resonate with the public. That time is clearly passed. #Twitter

    The Draft

    If equalization is really the point, the system should be calculated based on years since last premiership. If not, then just give pick one to the premiership winning side and be done with it.
  7. My theory is that if the results don't reflect the stats, you're looking at the wrong stats.
  8. That thinking is what screwed us up during our horror period from 2008-2013. Experienced players help set standards and carry the load.
  9. Viney should probably try getting a touch instead of whacking blokes this game.
  10. My god, does Alistair Lynch ever shut up? I don't think I've heard him say a single positive thing about Melbourne today.
  11. I always find myself saying "fark he's tough" after every contest, so maybe that's his nickname.
  12. Hawks. Not because they're good. Just because I f'n hate 'em.
  13. Am I the only one who thinks he got tackled unfairly 5 times out of 6?
  14. During his first year at Carlton I often said to myself: "Man I wish this guy were at the MFC."
  15. I like the one of Hogan staring pensively at the footy while lying down. It's as if he's thinking "Is this what my life has become?"
  16. With a body like his, I'd rule the world. But no. Not him. Not for the MFC.
  17. Because a square has one syllable, a rectangle has three and Strayans are lazy.
  18. I just hope one day I see a Melbourne game in which our coach makes a tactical move that wins us that game, even though it might not be 100% in line with our predetermined gameplan. That would be nice.
  19. Tom McDonald simultaneously needs to take a good hard look at himself while also getting a lot more support from 20 other team-mates (minus Jetta of course).
  20. From a rules "interpretation" point of view, what today has taught me is that it's okay to throw the ball if you've been in possession for less than half a second. This is something we really need to start taking advantage of.
  21. James Frawley really screwed us over. I wasn't his biggest fan, but he's still a damn good key backman.
  22. I think the worst thing to take out of this is that the Bulldogs are better coached than we are. They always get to the right positions. Surely our coaching staff is being payed enough to be able to tell our players where to stand.
