Look I'll level with you, I'm feeling pretty much the same. After going to every single home game this year I've suddenly felt flat as a tack. Mate who I usually go with is bowing out this week and I sure as hell can't be bothered with that stupid ticketing system. But I know I have to snap out of it somewhat, It's a game of footy with Melbourne in it. Come Fri I've gotta be at my best.

Big ask beating a team 3 teams in a season, apparently impossible unless the other side is flu-ridden on the 3rd attempt.

I just want to see our fans this Friday arrive already gee'd up

I went into this game thinking the goals from turnovers was going to be crucial and we needed to fare well in that stat. This time round we got not only beaten in it but completely rinsed.

You may well be correct.

Please rest Trac this week.

It's great locking the ball in the 50. Helps a lot, but we need to be able to score as well.

This time last year the feeling was that there were no real weaknesses in this team with almost everyone in career best form and the bottom 6 players better than anyone else's bottom 6. This isn't the case now, there is always a feeling that we are 1 or 2 players short of something great. It happens, these things are hard to win and it takes everything you've got and a bit more to win them. This year we have been a great side that has simply not shown it enough and I don't know whether that is application, coaching or fitness but it is a fact. It's one week at a time for me now, win this week and live to fight another day. Thinking beyond that is just too much.

Agree, replenish the small stocks. Richmond got to a point where they were pumping them out on a conveyor belt. It can't hurt to have more pushing for selection.

Absolutely 100% couldn't agree more. This is idiotic Nat Fyfe style managing by the sound of it.

Exactly, it is literally the secret sauce to winning football games. Geelong and Sydney's pressure is currently the best in my view, surprise surprise look where they sit.

Are the 'incidents' in this game overplayed and were we just beaten by an all round better team on the night? We really wanted to kick long to the pocket as much as possible in this one, despite it being the plan did this hurt us at times considering the Rd 23 game our delivery into the 50 was so varied?

In that case I might do the MCC walk up thing this time. Anything to avoid that system.

If there was a ladder for fan involvement this week where would we sit?

Get ready guys!

Sorry mate. Happened to me in 2002 for the Crows game, not cool.

You can do it Tank Abbott

Yeah bummer

He was crap last night. Not even the positive police could defend that

Melbourne madness

Got my vote

Walking crazy talk!

What is this then?

"We can see there is a gap" Where was the gap? How can you tell that on 1943 quality cameras?

Broke our hearts. They can't buy their way out of this garbage!
