We are coming back out. What an odd 2 weeks we have had. Sitting on a tarmac then going off for lightening. Goody in the last 10 minutes get our good players off. Don't take any risks

Gee the Brownlow voting will be interesting if it just stops now. I mean someone could have a great last 15 minutes like a petracca or oliver

If it ends this way it's kind of a downer just in the sense we want to roll them. David King is saying if I'm Melbourne I'm saying nah that's it. He said why would you want your players cooling down then running back out there. If we lose any key players to hammys or groins I will be filthy

I have to be up for work in less than 7 hours. I don't have time for lightening breaks

Lighting may kill our momentum. Ugh even the weather gods are helping west coast

What's with petraccas handballing tonight. Ugh

Fritta a liability tonight

Great quarter. Melksham justifying his place in the team with some handy crumbing goals. Gawn doing some nice things in the ruck and Neal-Bullen doing some good thngs to. Come on dees bring it home!!!

The more I see of Bowey the more I'm impressed. He just does not waste the ball. We just need to get back to what we did so well in that 1st quarter.

Fritta just cost us a goal then

Have not seen Fritta at all. Kozzie has to get into it, these conditions are made for him.

the storms are coming apparently well according to the weather report. Just got to start well and early and kick straight. If essendon and nth can best west coast surely we can?

So basically we can go from 4th right up to the top of the ladder. We can also get a 10 point buffer on the lions who are 5th. So us melbourne supporters having seen what this club can do, we all know what will happen tonight, yeh? I really really hope Im wrong. They said on the news before they reckon tommy will be out and because of the rain we may go small. West coast lost to nth in the wet a few weeks ago. The rain would be good because it would hinder kennedy and darling. I just hope Gawn and LJ run Nic Nat off his feet. Such an important game.

You do realise that Essendon have an easy last 2 games and will probably make finals now and we have to put up with there arrogant fans. They are actually not a bad team & could cause some trouble.

Just read Alir alir last night copped some racial stuff to. On Tex not only is he an ex captain who should no better but he is a married 31 year old man who is a father of 2. Not the best example to set. Also what's with the statement the players association putting out a statement basically worrying about Tex and protecting him. also is it a bit unprofessional to put out a statement and use his nickname than his proper name. It seemed all a bit casual.

Hope Freo win today, Hawks pies I have no idea and I do want the dogs to beat the bummers just to snuff them out

Eddie Betts made his thoughts clear today with a message on his wrist.

Wow that is a fantastic win considering all the great players the giants had out. Over to you Melbourne to get back 2nd spot

Nup olympics for me tonight. But gws need a miracle tonight and I hope they get one. I just want the dogs to win and just snuff out the bummers chances.

Look anyone at nay age shouldn't say racial things, but this is a 31 year old man who has seen what his ex teammate Eddie Betts go through stuff, he was at that camp where apparently things were said, like what was he thinking.

Just a dumb thing to do and especially 3 weeks out from finals. Not the right time to be out of the team. He may not get back in as someone may come in, step up and take there chance.

Is it true essendon used up there rotations leaving 3 key players on the bench in the dying minutes then tried to cheat and get there sub on but got shut down by the afl person on bench?

Good day of football. Dees had a great win & the bummers lose

Poor kicking in that final term
