Weid can't mark. He is a two grabber. Its his fatal flaw. maybe its confidence, maybe he just can't do it. It is what it is. And BB comes back in. His marks and gut running are gold. Oh and he kicks straight too..

North Melbourne in 2016 was 9-0 (and 10 from 11) They finished 8th and were beaten by 10 goals in their only final. Just sayin'...

Except this seems exactly how we are playing. We are losing clearances regularly and creating our scoring opportunities from defence. We are often 1 down at stoppages as if we are happy to concede them. Oppo clearances are rarely out the front though and are almost always sideways or 'dirty' - meaning f50 entries are shallow and easier to defend... At least that is my observation....

Viney has kicked a goal every game so that appears to be working...

And the player comes from a continent that generates 80% of global revenue....

Telstra Tracker (stats frm 2020 - I can't access more recent) BBrown rd 6 13.3km BBrown Rd 2 13.1km BBrown Rd 4 13.4km BBB covers a lot of ground for a big fwd...

Probably deserves its own thread but I read online that we hold a pretty amazing record. Number of games since we conceded 100 points.... Melbourne (rd 19, 2019) 51 games Next Brisbane 10 Syd 7 Carl 5 Freo 4 St K 3 WCE 3 Ess 3 WBDogs 2 Geel 2 Port 2

Forgot about him. He wasn't as big a signing as Lewis though... And Mitch Clark was probably the first we snagged out of the hands of other teams. I remember that as being a coup. I was having a laugh the other day thinking about players we 'missed out on' and Landers gnashing their teeth over like Jack Hannath and Jamie Elliott. Thank God we have moved on from those days,,,

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.
