Well we outscored them that quarter at least.

They have been very good today.

Classic Salem.

Yeahhh we not winning this lol

Statistically we're not doing too badly. How we *look* is a different story. TMacs checkside kick from 50 out preceded three GWS goals. Our pressure is very poor. But we are defending okay. Not out of reach. Unlikely, but not impossible. Let's back them in. Our Brisbane game looked ominous at half time.

Have we been 25 points down at any point this year?

Hibberd understated Greene's strength there. Hate the block but boy is he good

what style? outscoring your opponent?

Can everyone calm down.

We look flat everywhere except down back.

Classic Greene duck.

Can't wait until Viney gets more match fitness. He looks ready to explode. Can see him tearing up Port next week.

Can't go today. Sick as hell unfortunately. First Melbourne game all year I'll be missing. Spewing.

Actually the argument is they could earn more based on purchase intent of fans, attendance, broadcasting etc. Pre covid of course. And besides, a decent place in a nice area down their is not cheap. Most players earn less than 250k and that's only for a few years. Few players are buying million dollar properties. And no player could afford a place in Sorrento or Portsea, or really nice pockets of Mt Martha.

Surely aligns with plans on a home base. Something must be in the pipeline.

Thank God for our backline. They are streaming it out of defense. We are flat and slow.

Am I crazy or was that a point.

Gawn absolutely pasting the defenders after that Stringer goal. Gave them a spray.

Mistake not having one of Brown or Weids in tonight. They are killing us in the air down back.

I got 5 on level 1. Sorry fam.

Well that was the least amount of time I've spent trying to get tickets. Which is strange given the reduced capacity. In and out by 9:03am. AFL Members, level 1 undercover.

We're the fifth highest scoring team in the league. Bombers score less than a goal more than us a game.

probably still would have struggled for a ticket.

Nothing new here. All of these journos claiming to know anything are just setting a wide range for social media klout. They can't be wrong if they say "as high as" or "between" and then set a wide range. We all know it'll be less than 50% but above 20%. This government has form when it comes to arbitrary benchmarks so they'll probably set it at 29.879% and claim the supercomputer spat out that number. Footy crowds seem quite triviap next to announcements for weddings and funerals. What is someone supposed to do on a Wednesday for a Saturday wedding if numbers are bumped up? Why not announce it on Sunday to allow a full 5 weekdays for businesses and people to prepare? The argument that a jump in cases could then lead to a change again is irrelevant because that's the case regardless of when the announcement is made. The government is simply playing politics here, an effort in minimising perception damage. ie if they announce on Sunday that weddings can have more people and footy can have more people but then need to tighten up again due to more cases, they look bad. But if they announce it two days before on Weds or Thurs, there's less chance they'll look bad. It's pathetic.
