Gorgoroth

Are they resting Brayshaw during the week a bit more since he has been playing or does it seem like he is coping alright with the loads.

Imagine if they watched players who ran hard, chased hard, hit targets... They may even learn... Alas, they are all footied out. Poor bubbas.

Does any money from the jumpers go to the RSL?

Let's hope Macca can teach us to tackle like the bullies can. He got them tackling really well last year and they have taken to a new level this year.

I'd rather hear Roos tell the truth. The team, led by its leadership group go to water as soon as their is pressure applied, Jones normally stands up alone but even this week he failed. Our leadership is so poor that once challenged the game is pretty much done. (Last week vs GC seems to be a blip on the radar only)

They dug deep and beat the Hawks. Didn't see that two mins ago

I wish Melbourne players had as much fight and determination as the Essendrug players.

Jamar needs to be replaced, we do not have a decent ruckman on our list, Jamar can get his hand to it, but doesn't do a lot with it. Gawn I don't think is the answer, nor Fitzy. Spencil I don't think is the answer either. We need to target a good ruck at years end. Next we need a A grade midfielder. And I mean of the comp. Jones is fantastic, but he ain't a star of the comp. Tyson also was immense last year but butchers the ball too often and does not like a tag, I hope he gets better but I still don't think he will be a star of the comp. Brayshaw looks very good, but like Viney I think will be a hard nut, but not a star like Pendlebury, Judd etc. Will Petracca be that player? Not sure, Salem... Maybe. But I think a dominant ruck should be our priority. We saw yesterday with Mumford that when a ruck dominates and there is a decent midfield under him you get first use and usually in a good area.

[censored] this club... [censoooooored] it!

Melbourne: still no leadership

What has Roos tried? No change, no player back to stem the flow, we are playing Neeld football, Mark, go back, down the line, turn it over, don't chase. Fucken pathetic, typical Melbourne fucken shite. God I'm over this club. Weak as [censored].

Jones has been pathetic today, the last two contests he has jogged, one was the centre bounce. He is usually amazing, but he is pathetic today.

Our leaders are missing, weak, fucken weak.

Pathetic effort by all players. Game on, and we look second rate.

Our chasing and pressure is pretty pathetic at the moment.

Jones needs to learn with the new rule he can't try and break tackles, he will be pinged every time.

Need to get Jones and Tyson into the game, but as importantly get H running and get the ball to him in space. With Tomlinson out of the game when their resting Mumford we need to make sure we dominate the hit outs and clearances. Kent and Jeffy need to get in their bikes early in the quarter and pressure pressure pressure.

Ten less inside 50's Need to get running and spreading like we did early and last week.

How is it a throw when he handballs, geez the umps are [censored] me.

We are really living dangerously at the moment, they are missing their shots other wise it would be a lot closer. We are so stagnant, need to get running.

Tomlinson subbed out injured. Tmac, I love you but that was a horrible kick in.

Need to get back on top, getting sloppy and they are having a few shots in a row.

Ha ha, just too excited to get the post out... Ha ha

What a snap from Garlett! Misses the easy set shot and gets the hard on

How was that not holding the ball on Treloar?
