Taken Daniher's spot as my most hated played based solely on looks.

He's played like 20 games. How many games into Garland's career until you called it quits for him? Which mind you isn't over, he's injured.

Hmm what I mean is he's demanding the attention of the defenders by going up at the contest. I suspect this is why he's still in the side, next to not wanting to bring in two players without match fitness. He went up a lot on the weekend and you'll see that he was involved in a lot of contests even if he didn't get the ball. I agree he isn't getting enough of the ball but I suspect that so long as we can hit the scoreboard as we did last week albeit without converting, then he's safe.

Me included. Thought he held up. Skeptical of rushing Frost in.

And just like that...

1-2 goals and he does his job. He's at every aerial contest, which is what we need.

Weeds is obviously the tall we need because he brings the ball down. Bringing in Frost AND Pederson would have been dangerous. I just don't see Pederson changing our forward structure much especially seeing as we had 100 scoring shots last week.

So we bring in Frost AND Pederson, two without game fitness for the year. Clearly it was between Oscar and Weeds. We've proven we can score with an underperformed Weeds.

We drop Weeds and we go in VERY short. He brings the ball down and is at every contest. No Brainer.

I'd much rather throw money at Dusty.

Woah, deep We miss what we got him for, though. He'd have beenexceptionally useful last week. We had no answer for their talls.

Back the kid in ffs.

I don't suspect it's a *massive* hit as we're going to see membership boost and crowd increases. But agree it looks bad. Like we're state-sponsored or something. Only thing I can think of is that PJ and Co. aren't budging on price and would rather sell at a premium than lower the price. Could also be a few potential suitors waiting it out. Very important we perform and win when on FTA. ANZAC Day Eve match is very important.

Must have been a little news tidbit. Maybe Hogan contract news or something.

Oscar is certainly Melbourne fans' favourite player to hate. When we lose or perform poorly it's generally his fault. Forget the fact he's played like 20 games and plays as a defender with as much confidence as a 200 gamer, and has also -- coincidentally -- been part of a team that has started a rise up the ladder. Make no mistake that he along with his bro are part of the reason why we are improving. I'm much more concerned about Tyson, Viney, and Vince whenever they have the ball in the back half.

Reflection.

I actually laughed out loud. Well done.

He's going to kill it. The way some carry on around here... I think the problem is that Gawn has been part and parcel of the only semi-decent Melbourne team in a decade so now that he's injured we're a rabble again. Spencer exists for this very reason and is most definitely up to the task. He's a different kind of player but I can't way to see him help us win on Saturday.

Yep that game in the wet. Even then he didn't get much notice. Hoping ANB has a similar breakout game soon.

His breakout game was against the Crows last year.

Jones you'd think will play until 33-34, possibly longer. He's well on his way to 350. No doubt he'll break the club's record.

He should be shown the door with Goodwin tbh.

Needs a couple of weeks at Casey.

His pace worries me. He's very bottom heavy. But he's been very consistent with 1-2 showboat performances a match. High football IQ and great delivery going forward, too.

Spencer will be our Tracey McGrady: played for years in the shadow of better players at his position, and when given a real opportunity absolutely smashes it. He actually doesn't have a choice. He'll have his ups and downs and will make mistakes because that's just the kind of player her is. But he has a very high football IQ and is a ruthless competitor. I have no doubt that by his 5-6th game, many on here will be eating their words. Bookmark in a couple of BOGs.
