Lord Byron, I have aggregated the last 2 weeks, us vs opponent: goals: 9-29 I-50s: 62-118 disposals: 609-767 clearances: 72-84 now, we are all each allowed to interpret stats in our own way, but to me, I look at that and say we are getting SMASHED in every key department EXCEPT for clearances, where our deficit is relatively minor. To me the clearance stat is the best indicator of inside mid effectiveness.

He might drown the odd ale with his old man Probably not allowed to do that though if youre an AFL player these days

It's all that got me through 2007. The novelty has well and truly worn off in the 7 years ensuing, underscored heavily by the fact that by and large all those picks have done jack squat for the position of this football club.

a few years back that would have been a 150 point loss. Halfway through the 2nd quarter if someone said you would only lose by 66 Id gladly have taken that. it seems like straw-clutching, but you are right, it IS something that we can play out a second half instead of capitulating Garland did a great defensive job on Bartel keeping him really quiet He had one kick and seven handballs. It's just nowhere near good enough no matter what position you play or who you're on. Watts is always an easy target from fans when we lose. Yes it wasnt his best but he had friends that were also in the same category What does 'having friends' have to do with anything? I don't excuse anybody for being rubbish because their teammate was also rubbish, I have never understood this attitude. Frawley proved today no club will pay him 700-800 grand Well let's hope that he is still worth a first round compo pick and that the AFL doesn't screw us again somehow Also we just couldnt stick our tackles where as geelong did We managed to tackle like an AFL side for 4-5 weeks earlier in the year. Apart from that we haven't done it since Daniher left (and even then it wasn't our strong suit)

I would just about cry with embarassment Look at Melbourne scooping up picks again, all in futility God help us

How was that incident, Dawes gave a little knock-on it was nice, and Wattsy pooped himself and fumbled it instead of just running into goal, and then tackled somebody blatently around the neck and gave away a free. FMD. I am one of the worst footballers ever to take the field but I tell you I would have done better in that situation. He got a 0/10 for that play. He's a tough man to love is Watts.

I punched out before half time today, it's just too painful

it all depends on whether having coffee with a player makes you as good as him haven't seen a star at Melbourne this century and then some

stevie mothereffing J gets a nothing free to put us 50 points down i have counted NINE absurd decisions that have gone against us not one player has done a single thing that is special Roos looking like a pretender at this point I am not watching this club again until they win a game

a billion to one Jack Viney is going anywhere

He's a stinker of a bloke off the field too

this will be another smashing from these smug pr1cks, with that boofheaded [censored] 'Stevie J' doing as he pleases again. It will be cold and wet and we will be awful and I'm furious about it already.

'forgotten' as in, 'trying to forget' pick 18 in his fifth season, grand total of zero good games for the club another melbourne drafting success story

'why are you both so average?'

I had completely forgotten about Evans

No

and for being completely useless

Ah yes another mob with a huge wining streak over us. At least we have the privilege of actually facing them at home for the first time in FIVE YEARS. We are paying 6.00 with the line at 37.5 points. Can't see us getting within 10 goals after last week's pitiful performance.

the ball came in 61 times and he had 9 disposals, wtf was he all night? also waltzed straight into a tackle in the middle of the ground and got caught holding it, far too stupid for a 109 game player I love him but he has been super super average all year

Also, the nature of Tyson's possessions are that he is nearly always surrounded by extreme pressure, much more so than Grimes

He wasn't even good, is the sad part PS Cold sober

They missed a flag by 15 points last year and will be right up there again this year But still... 32 inside 50s and 4 goals.. our score was nearly tripled Halfway through Q2 Grimes misses a sitter that would have had us within 5 points, after that at no stage did we look anywhere near even being in it as Freo kicked 12 to 3 in the remainder Looooooooooooooong way to go, so far it seems impossible

N.Jones Viney M.Jones McDonald Terlich Tyson Horrible: GAWN, Grimes, Dawes, Garland, Watts, Salem, McKenzie,

wtf with everyone talking about who they have out.. pretty sure we could use Cross, Jetta, Hogan and Trengove right about now
