People forget there weren't many many players (let alone multiple Pemiership players) wanting to come to Melbourne. We were a laughing stock for many years. These guys changed the narrative and I for one will always be grateful for them coming to us.

Agree. The guy ran directly at BB and was 70m away from the ball. The generous take is that BB was protecting himself and was clumsy. By not penalising the off ball sniping this stuff happens.

Interesting take. What the hell was the Willy guy doing trying to run a BB 70m away from the ball? That in itself is an infringement. Maybe BB was just trying to shrug the guy off and being a 7 ft tall gumby was clumsy?

A young guy who was drafted in 2020 and played only 2 games last year due to injury, and you are struggling to understand why we drafted him. Have I got that right? There aren't enough eggs in the world.

6. Gawn 5. Harnes 4. May 3. Jordan 2. Jackson 1. Langdon

How bad has the umpiring been? Pathetic

Is that a real question?

Oliver out of this world Outstanding game. We would have been lost without him

Not sure. Each time I go past it seems there is v little activity. Possible waiting for winter to set in before grassing and allowing to settle before spring growing season?

Zaharakis? Not sure I have seen him play at Melbourne What number is he?

ooops

Today. Its still dirt.

Probably the same as this guy. Gone into hiding....

Allen Jakovich went alright. Didn't get the plaudits that JB has but all the same kicked a few goals...(50 in his first 9 games...)

My recollection is that they used to hang off every word he said.. He was a superstar with 4 flags. They had never played up close with someone like that before.

This, Who else had premiership experience? Our fortunes improved as a club when we started getting people that had been to the top in recent times including Choco and Yze

I miss the button where you can silence the commentators and just hear crowd noise.

I am worried about Parish racking up 40+ possessions and destroying us..... [End://sarcasm emoji]

The players in danger of being delisted at the end of the year would likely be MBrown, JMelksham, MHibberd, Basically anyone with an Essendon connection

My intel says that all is not right at Bomberland. There is a bit of turmoil behind the scenes with a push to get Hirdy back amongst other things (before he takes the GWS job..). Players unhappy about game plan etc

I don't think he was ever stop gap. He was the best kick in his draft according to Jason Taylor. Bailey Laurie was 2nd best Thats the reason they were selected

They'll bury it like everything else they deem 'distasteful'

I can't for the life of me understand why Weid doesn't try something like a glove on one hand? Maybe he has but plenty have used them including Mathew Lloyd and Travis Cloke etc His two grabbing is the biggest problem for mine. His kicking is shot because of confidence most likely but that can turn around reasonably quickly given his reasonable kicking technique 6 years and he has basically played one decent game. Something wrong here.

Would that make you feel better?

And against Richmond a few years ago from memory when Jordan McMahon kicked the winning goal after the siren......
