That is an outstanding analysis from an opposition supporter.

Sure, you can ask but don't expect an answer I come to this site to hear intel like this. Sure a lot of it is off track but I like to know whats out there, not too fussed where it comes from. You learn which posters are generally on the money

This was about Petty. Didn't age well.... ?

If he needs resting, I'm in favour of resting him not making him the medical sub. He might have tio come on in the first qtr..

It would hardly be a surprise would it?? and 'oh I am going to tell you my source so they get sacked' Seriously its a fan forum.

Really liked the work of Harmes, Chandler, Sparrow, Foote, Bedford, Bradke and Rosman We are building some real depth.

I'd love for there to be a TV feed of the game without commentators Just give me the crowd noise.

He can be miffed but BBs track record is miles better than Weids

1st or 2nd are essentially the same

Jackson has already extended to end of 2022

I remember Clarkson a few years ago when the Hawks were 100 pts up against Melbourne and in the last quarter he played a spare man in defence. I said at the time thinking Clarkson was mean and wanted to inflict a 100 pt loss on Melbourne but a few weeks alter I was chatting to a Hawks Board member who told me that Clarkson uses such occasions to experiment with game plans and style. Like practice a 'last 2mins of the game drill with scores level' type of thing. It made total sense not to waste such an occasion. Even in a lop sided win you can be practising different tactics . I really liked that idea and think Melbourne should try to get control of the game but use it to refine or rehearse certain strategies. Our forward line hasn't yet dominated a side and we definitely need to frefine our skills in this area.

This is rubbish. Kozzie was slated to go in the mid-20s. Clubs were surprised we went so early for him

But he's now playing forward. And not particularly well.

Dee-Fence wins flags from Fox Footy The tale of the tape.....Melbourne's 2 year turnraround to get its defence right The ability to stop oppositions scoring once they enter their fwd 50 is an historic low by a long margin..

If you are after historical perspective we have played both Grand Finalists from last year Here's another one. Since Bartlett's spray after the Port game we are 12 and 3. You were saying....

Wish Oliver had nailed that goal after the Kossie incident He needs to fix his goal kicking

You do know that it was the highest crowd for the AFL this year don't you? In fact it was the highest crowd for a sporting event anywhere in the world. Todays ANZAC day game is now higher. And at nearly $200 for a family of 5 plus transport/parking and/or something to eat and drink you are wondering why more don't go to the footy? I can't help you.

I reckon this goes a bit unoticed but he always tries to hurt by going in with the knees or a flying elbow etc. pre-meditated carelessness.

Amazing night at the footy. A real test that we not only passed with flying colors but we gave back better than we got. Even from some of our younger players. Their sniping and clips to the head is a disgrace but we held firm and didn't take a backward step. I have to comment on Umpire 22 who is the worst in the comp. He made at least 12 blunders and in particular during the first 15m of the first qtr. That we were able to remained focus and hard at the ball gives the team a huge amount of belief. Well done to all. Enjoy the ride. We're going places.

Maybe the selection committee has chosen a side they think is suited to beating the tigers.... Just a thought

Is it school holidays again?

Trust the science We just don't know whose science though...seems to be lots of different takes....

It is. Until it isn't Typical AFL

He also kicked a left foot pass that hit Gawn on the chest which he duly converted from 50m
