Roaming Brian - Round 4 vs Swans
He just walked past me in an Elsternwick car park. Has lost a fair bit of weight.

My 3 word player analysis V Sydney
You obviously didn't read my post either or you would have read this " Yes he makes mistakes, but I thought he did his job." You disagree with that, fine. Where is the weird blind faith, when I say he makes mistakes. Have I likened Frost to Rance? I am not saying he is great. I am just acknowledging that I thought he did his job last night. If you think Frost should not be ever acknowledged for some good play, that is fine, go ahead and laugh at everyone who thought he was reasonable last night. Personally I lol out at posters who can't see a player do anything right because they dislike them.

What to do with Nathan Jones
"Thatโs the only place he can play Should never play up the ground again, his form had been atrocious for a long time in the middle. But if he can kick 1-2 goals a game he may keep a spot" The above is your post. First line you say he can only play in one place. Second line you say he never play up the ground again and his form in the middle has been atrocious for a long time. Third line you say he may keep a spot if he can kick 1-2 goals a game. 3 lines and bagged 3 times. Do you not see that? You bagged him, its simple, just admit it, don't deny it. As I said, where is the one complimentary line that says he played a very good game last night ?

My 3 word player analysis V Sydney
I actually saw it differently. Yes he makes mistakes, but I thought he did his job. He was on Buddy and forced him up the ground to get most of his possessions. He has been far better than Oscar this season and you can't drop every key back we have, until the better blokes are ready. ATM I see Frost still in the side, ahead of Oscar, when May and Lever are back.

Did you notice Bruce gushing over the Swans and actually barracking for them?

Changes: Rd 05 v St. Kilda
Agree. On Oscar's first 4 weeks Petty will be no worse. I would keep Billy in as he needs a few games strung together, not being dropped after one, when he contributed and added some pace. Pretty sure he didn't turn it over last night.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - MARTY HORE
Agree he was ordinary against Box Hill and played a nice game tonight. Hopefully he can keep improving and put on a few more k's of muscle and we might have found another player.

Dees honesty session.
I am a fan of Oscar Mc but what he did on friday night was just plain dumb. Having now watched the entire game back on TV, since I was at the game and obviously miss things there, I was absolutely stunned at Oscar on several occasions leaving his man and running to no mans land in between 2 Bombers and forcing Frost to try and run back to cover for him, thereby leaving his man. No wonder they had loose men and got uncontested marks in the forward 50, it was just ridiculous. Then, when 2 backs jumped for the ball and Devon Smith is lurking behind the pack, near the Bombers goal, what does Josh Wagner do, he mans up on Smith, NO, he goes 3rd man up, leaving Smith to goal from the crumb. Wagner did this several times too. Either our Coaches are dumb, or our players are or they all are. Manning up in those situations would have saved several goals and probably have seen us winning, despite the umpiring. Seriously, this is under 8 's stuff. How the hell is it allowed to happen. Lastly, Jetta, has lost all pace, Hibberd and Jones have lost their kicking disposal, our key forwards lead to the wrong spots, our small forwards are slow, can't kick goals and are not applying enough pressure to keep the ball in our forward 50 and our mids don't help defensively. Viney has no confidence from 30 out and passes to players in worse positions. Max has no help. Fix all that and we can make the finals and still have a good year.

Jack Martin
Would he get a game ahead of ANB though?

Dustin Martin suspension downgraded to one week
May has been treated harsher than any player so far this year for the incident he was in. Braced like Cox, but didn't run across off his line to block the player like Cox did.. No concussion or injury suffered, despite what Christian said, which was later corrected at the Tribunal. New grading brought in at the Tribunal that "it could have been worse", but not applied to Dusty or anyone else. Was not off the ball like Dusty but in play. Was a block, not an elbow to the side of the head, which has always been considered a low act. Yes once again we cop the worst of it. Note that Gerard Whateley and other commentators have said the umpiring at our game was very poor and guess who copped the worst of it? Yes we seem to do very well with the AFL.
