Agree, shut those power fans up

Im sorry but are west coast a 2 man team now? No darling no Kennedy no wc. Yes I know if you take 2 forwards out it's harder to score goals but West coast are on there home ground, sitting 2nd. They still have a number of great players. They are playing a team that lost to Carlton. My god the scum cannot be that good. Anyway the socceroos are on in an hour.

People go on and on about our camp and cancelling it, well you know what adelaide went on one and stuffed it. To only kick 4 goals that is a disgrace. There performance was worse than carltons in the sense that this was last years runners up. They only kicked 4 goals and scored nothing in the 3rd quarter. Clarkson reminds me of Craig Bellamy he Melbourne storm coach in the way that they both lose players but get someone else in to fill the position and do it well. Gee looking at the ladder last weeks loss hurt. If the tigs win they will joining WC and Sydney 2 games clear of us. Cats win they go one game clear. We really need to beast port next week to keep the teams below us off our backs.

Wow I actually gave Carlton a chance today, but this is just horrible. There could be a mass walk out at half time. This was a team that beat essenscum who have beaten teams like geelong and gws at there home ground. Well the loser out of the suns and saints could escape scrutiny because I think next week the focus will be on Carlton.

I haven't been to geelong since that horrible day. But can we just rock up and by a general admission ticket? It never seems to be a sellout.

We also have to come up against Lindsay Thomas next week as well. Great.

So who do we put on Wines next week? The games this weekend on free to air arent to bad. Tonights is ok, tomorrow night Sydney v WC will be a cracker and Saturday night Hawthorn Adelaide will be interesting and its a shame we don't get Geelong Richmond on sunday arvo.

I wonder if Roosy was asked an opinion about this as they are former teammates and good friends still. Anyway did not see this coming but good on melbourne because even the main footy reporters obviously didn't get the scoop. Maybe things arent leaking out anymore. When they talked about it on classified the other week Perts name wasn't mentioned. He has big shoes to fill.

Well just got home from the game. The way I saw it was collingwood were just to quick for us, they went up the middle all day, cox killed us, they had multiple goal kickers and shared it around, we over handballed in the first term, dropped simple marks lacked pressure, missed easy tackles and didn't have enough players kicking goals, some of our big name players didn't exist and again we were smashed in the clearances. Our midfield coach has a lot of work to do and viney on the radio after the game acknowledged its 2 weeks in a row we have been smashed in clearances. But this is a reality check. Im confident we will bounce back. Im not about to make ridiculous calls about trading players out or if goodwin is still the right guy. If we get thrashed by port in 2 weeks then I may ask questions. But its not time to over react. We have had a good 6 weeks.

Maybe we don't want 2nd spot. Collingwood just to quick and used the corridor well.

Maybe its the reality check we need.

Need petracca to lift to. Stick him in the forward 50 and see how he goes. But we need to lift big time.

Christ someone needs to sit on degoey. He is killing us

Need to stop the over handballing

Hope for a dees domination and howe doesnt get mark of the year nomination

Glad to see jetta finally get some recognition. Nice article of him in the age.

Found this on the herald sun website. Gawny playing squash sounds interesting. https://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/teams/melbourne/jack-viney-says-melbourne-bonding-sessions-make-club-more-united-than-ever/news-story/0a94798629d3ab9ac4656fc111bb22d8 Pumped for today. Hope Gawn smashes Grundy and shows who is the number 1 ruckman in the comp. Hope our forward line just dominates and we have a good win and grab 2nd spot.

So many reasons why it's important to win tomorrow. Not just to get one over the pies but to grab 2nd spot and a 2 game break on nth, collingwood and port.

Next saturday is the game of the round. Gold Coast v StKilda. If the saints lose I fear for Richo.

Funny enough essendon winning doesn't bother me as much. Yes I enjoy them losing and do not want them to make the 8 but they won and im not bothered. I think it's because we are going so well at the moment. Hope freo can beat the crows. Would put Lyon in a happy mood for the slide tomorrow.

What did people make of the Hodge heppell collision? A player goes off concussed and people go on a rage about it. All I saw was hodge go for the ball keep running and Heppell was exposed. I never saw Hodge deliberately raise an elbow or set to knock him out. Just one of those footy incidents.

Was hoping for the lions to beat essenscum today but don't think that will happen.

I have found the Melbourne v Adelaide game from a few weeks ago. Watching the 2nd half and seeing lever dominate and realising what we will miss. Anyway im yet to see this game. More enjoyable than whats on tv. Even flicked to the wallabies game and they were losing to the Irish

Id prefer it to be essenscum orcollingwood down there. i just heard on the radio that gc did not take 1 mark in the forward 50. How does that happen. These are professional well played athletes.

I tuned out. I look at the saints and have flashbacks of the bad days for us. Going to the footy and the game would be over by 1/2 time. As for the suns my god they look like they will never be successful.
