What a joke of a game.

The only time we find space with a weighted kick it’s out on the full.

When we aren’t allowed the opportunity to run we go to water. Need to be able to work through

This is a hard watch right now.

Missed chance, missed chance, missed chance, sucker punch. Watching Melbourne..

That was Benny Hill of the highest quality

Melksham on fire

More lacklustre football and I'm not just potting Melbourne here this is a league thing. Between the arcs we look good but can't nail the kick into the 50. That sentence defines the league right now.

I am leaving Players in Lygon and going home. Had enough of watching in SD on a 42 inch screen in a ping pong parlour pokie bar. Hold my calls

Good turnover

Petracca is going to have to be a focal point. More grabs like that

We showed some signs of getting going

Mean no Harmes!

Fluffing some chances

Was Players in Lygon always this terrible? I literally walked straight out and trust me it takes a lot for me to walk out on a Melbourne game.

For next 4 weeks I'm going to be taking a uni course at RMIT and will be finishing today about 5 mins before the ball is bounced. Most likely gonna have to duck in to one of those terrible Lygon pubs.. Anyhoo, yeah big game but let's face it they all are from here on in. Not flashing forward or jumping ahead in my mind just looking forward to finishing today and seeing me some red and blue go around.

100% Supermercado. It’s been the question for a while now as well. If the plan is to just throw J.Wagner in and expect him to control tempo, hit a composed kick on demand and organise the backline then forget it. Having said that to carry this kind of player for over half a season is a stretch (no pun). I can’t see anyone becoming this role player any other way than choosing someone and just sticking them down there for a prolonged period of time, accepting mistakes might happen along the way in the process. Similar to persisting with Hunt up forward.

What is the alternative?

6. Harmes 5. Oliver 4. Gawn 3. Hibberd 2. Salem 1. Lockhart Mentions - Brayshaw, Hunt

Fantastic result today. Man there’s no better feeling than being on the right side of a close game and hearing our song as the relief pours in! Couldn’t focus as much as possible as usual, had a special guest with me and was trying to keep them entertained. But will give this a shot: James Harmes you star. Elite level midfielder for sure. Clayton Oliver copped some stupid heat from some of those around me, even one suggesting a VFL run. Get stuffed. Hibberd back to the rebounder we know. Salem up the ground was an excellent move and is there a better sight than this guy kicking the ball? Lockhart is a player, the desperation is what sells me on him. Last but not least and some might baulk at this but welcome back Oscar, you belong here.

Oh how good is this baby!!!! Back later, love you all.

Let's go Dees! I'm here but have a special guest so only 97% focused instead of the usual 100.

Toumpas? You can only imagine what would have happened to the boards if this concept was suggested 2 months ago.

Totally with you Gorg. My attitude to footy has taken a massive change this year and it was like that right from the get-go well before our nose dive. I still love the game and have gone to every Dees game in Melb so far but the interest seems to end there. Last year I’d also watch 5-7 games a week (especially Fri night regardless of who was playing) AFL 360, FC, up to 5 footy related podcasts. This year I reckon I’d be lucky to watch more than 2 or 3 games a round, never watch FNF, never watch any of the shows (occasionally watch FC recorded a day later if lucky). I don’t have the patience for it and it’s boring.

You’re kidding! I had a major dress down in front of 5 mates! Well not that drastic but will be pressing the case a bit more next time!
