F U Melbourne, you are ruining my weekends. FFS A goal!!!! A goal!!!!! No that can't be right

A goalless quarter coming up??? Would almost make it a goalless half if not for the first 4 minutes.

our first score for a quarter and it was a rushed behind. And another

They've kicked a goal in the opening 30 seconds. So much of this game is about desire, why is it that even after 7 years of re-building, we still have so many players who pick and choose when to put in?

That's Roos' ethos.

God i hate how we continually have scoring droughts. It happens every week when we lose. Frustrating as hell

I was surprised at how quickly he was off the crutches.

...............because he is a 196cm forward. Highlighting that height shouldn't be the main yardstick. If you needed that pointed out to you, you are beyond help

watch the replay again and again

Endeavour and style of play has more influence than height. Watts has the height to play at CHF, but i'd put everything i have on Petracca making it as a CHF compared to Watts.

Not the worst suggestion ever. Jones is a blue-collar player (Roosy's type), whereas Jack is about as white-collar as they get (though i think that's because he doesn't want to get his clothes dirty).

It's about the only impact Howe has had this year. And it took out a really important player for us. Cheers Jeremy! #timetohearoffers

T McDonald O McDonald Dunn Frost We have plenty

Weideman or Schache will be up there for our first pick if we decide to go tall (we have enough KPD's surely). KPF's, Rucks and Mids Mids Mids is what we need

Pretenderghast has since moved to Carlton (is he still there???) and look what has happened!!! Karma, for how much he screwed us over with his unequalling draft ineptitude. (As for the recruiting of McDonald at pick 53......................................... even a broken clock is right twice a day - no points awarded)

Forward Line - Barely had opportunities Back Line - Held up Well Midfield - Rolled over again - Our biggest problem - Responsible for losses Roos - Adapt your gameplan

Is it too early to bring on Watts? LOL. I get what Roos is trying to achieve, but surely there is a better way of going about it. I would hate for his ego to get in the way of him willing to change some of his plans, in order to achieve a better result. Doing something over and over again, expecting a different result is the epitome of stupidity (especially with some of the coconuts we have playing for us at the moment).

1.3 to half time. Yep, we sure know how to play. Even Victory kicked more goals in a half than we have. FMD.

We are a [censored] disgrace. We still have sooooo many players to cut before we even think about starting to come good. It's astonishing, 9 years into a rebuild, and we still haven't made much positive progress.

half way through the second quarter and we are on 8. On track to score just over 21 tonight!

we're still a team that picks and chooses when to have a real crack. This sh!t's been happening for the past 6 years

I reckon he'll stay on until at least a year after Roos steps aside. Roosy hands over to Goodwin at the end of 2016, i reckon PJ will stay on until at least the end of 2017 so as to avoid as much instability as possible, which would be greater if come 2017 we had both a new coach and CEO.

The Wiz

Or after he kicks another 600-odd goals in the red & blue

I remember exactly where i was on draft night when we drafted Cook. Sitting at the kitchen bench, eating dinner listening to SEN cover the draft on the radio. The moment Pretendergast read out his name i moaned "noooooooooooooo". Admittedly, i was hoping to draft Lynch from Sorrento (who went at pick 11), but with him gone wanted Darling next. Instead, we drafted Lucas Cook. I know it is hard to predict how kids will develop, but i was as sure as i have ever been that picking Cook would haunt us (i'd thought that he'd at least debut). Felt a similar way when we drafted Gysberts whilst Talia was still on the board (JCB was a fan of Talia's very early in his draft year). I will admit though, when we drafted Toumpas i was not unhappy about the decision. I would've been happy if we drafted either Wines or Toumpas, but had expected us to draft Wines until the late mail a day or 2 out from the draft. Hindsight is a wonderful, yet very cruel thing.
