GAMEDAY BABY, YEEWWWWWW!!

The anxiety for this game is absolutely killing me. Anyone else in the same boat?

And yet Clarkson just named both Ceglar and McEvoy against Richmond tomorrow night.

It's Simple. Keep Hawkins to 3 goals or less, we win the game.

The exact type of bloke you want in your football club. Didn't really want to come to us, but was very serviceable and provided a much needed laugh and leadership through a tough time of footy. Great appointment by Roos and no doubt our great culture we have now can be reflected with what Bernie brought. Onya Berns.

With Tyson's improved form as of late, would him getting up for the game be as good as what I think it should be? Or are other supporters in the same camp of it being much of a muchness if he's fit or not?

Hogan for Cerra + 1st rounder. 1st rounder to GWS for Shiel. Happy with that. (Only if Hogan entertains wanted to be traded)

FINALS BABY!!!!

This is where season ending injuries to important blokes like Lever really have a silver lining. If our backline remained healthy and firing on all cylinders, I doubt Frost ever gets back in our best 22 and playing the sort of footy that has seem him become one of the most improved players of 2018 in the entire league. He has been an absolute revelation with his closing speed, spoiling, and his run off half back we can now confidently say Frost is the gorilla backman with x factor we were desperately hoping he'd become.

Nice video! Had goosebumps.

Remain absolutely proud of the boys. I wanted the season to just end a few weeks ago, and was blown away with the sort of footy we have played over the fortnight. Win or lose, I am absolutely ecstatic that we have finally made it to finals. It’s been a long 12 years but the light is there. I’m going to try and remain positive for whatever the result in a few weeks time. Let’s go!!!!!!!

News on Tyson? Was it when Gawn kicked him in the hand?

Preuuuuussssssssss

Yeah typical. What's your blizz ID fella?

Pre patch or post patch?

I think the umps were the involved to the point where the game was just absolute pure free-flowing and a spectacle to watch. There were two howlers of a decision I believed with Tyson just before 3qtr time how he dragged it in and drove his head into Shuey's leg, and Omac dropping the mark, then ducking and not disposing the ball. Both I believe should have been holding the ball which would have gifted eagles a goal. However, it's evened out with Vandenberg having that free kick paid against him with the umpires specifically stating 'You didn't have your eyes on the ball' when he clearly did. That free resulted in a goal also. Not only that, but it seemed whenever we touched a bloke, who was running for a ball the eagles player would look more interested in playing for the free kick and stopping dead in their tracks with their arms stretched out and the sound of the crowd going bezerk than actually the player wanting to win the footy. This is what frustrated the eagles supporters the most, but the umps weren't buying into them playing for those frees.

When Melksham kicked that goal I cried. I was in disbelief we held up after they hit the lead and held firm. I just couldn’t bare another close loss to cost us finals. This past month has killed me emotionally and mentally. The shed of tears was a gigantic sigh of relief and enjoyment of what’s to come. I can finally enjoy one weekend of football knowing we are playing finals.

Suck it West Coast supporters. Every time there was a contest all I heard was a collective whinge and sook. I’m so [censored] happy right now. Yes Melbourne!!!

OUT: Hogan, Spargo, Hunt IN: Melksham, Hibberd, Kent Perderson plays the Hogan role. He will be given a license to fly and crash as many packs and bring the ball to ground as often as he can. Jeffy and Kent to mock up the crumbs.

I think one thing people are forgetting is that key forwards do not demand the current as they once did. Deals like the Boyd trade inflated their worth, but now Richmond and Collingwood are quickly proving that they aren't needed for a premiership tilt. Even if we decided to put Hogan on the trade table, he'd command a first round pick. Nothing more, nothing less. Gone are the days were people sold the farm for one key position player.

I've heard different stories on Hibberd returning to the side. What's the latest on this? Is he in the mix for this weekend?

Would considering Hunt be too early for a senior recall? I just think with the wide open G' and Sydney lacking some pace, having Hunt off half back to replace Smith would be our most ideal scenario. For me: OUT: Smith, JKH IN: Hunt, Melksham

Looks like a Coles bakery employee. Pass from me.

You don't need all our players to be stars to win flags. Just a couple and the rest all role players, look at Richmond. Do you think blokes like Lambert, Castagna, Riolio, Mcintosh, Broad, Townsend, Caddy, Vlastuin, Ellis, Astbury, Short, Grimes are all stars? No, they are role players. That's what ANB is. A role player, and he will eventually be one of our 22 who will help deliver a flag.

Jesus I hate these articles. Absolutely hate them! It's like the media knows how we react in these situations, then they write a fluff article about us and 'premiership chances' just to add to the tension and troll and then watching us burn and fall over at the finish line. JUST GET THE JOB DONE MELBOURNE! I CAN'T GO THROUGH THIS ANOTHER YEAR IN A ROW. JUST WIN!
