He went further than that. He actually floated the possibility of us missing the 8 altogether. He then dropped the idea when we won the following week. To his credit he jumped on pretty early last year as I recall and never really jumped off. This year however he’s all over the shop. Just this week he suggested Port could run the table in the last 4 weeks and play finals. Seemingly entirely based off a commendable performance against Geelong.

Fantastic achievement. Onya Jess 👍

This is pathetic from the Dogs.

Oh that wasn’t a typo my friend.

That one he slotted from the boundary was a thing of beauty. Could not have kicked it any better.

Time for some pig love. This bloke is quietly compiling a very impressive season. His coolness under pressure is really something to behold and is infectious. Deserves to go round again next year if he is that way inclined. Our back six is sex and Hibbo is an important part of that.

Spargs is that player who earns you sideways looks when you enthusiastically defend his value to the side and wax lyrical about his skillful ball use. Opposition supporters seem to genuinely think he’s no good. His role, onfield demeanour and physical size may have a part to play in that. I feel like many would get a real shock if they paid closer attention to him.

Nothing takes the gloss off a win quite like a 10 minute Joel Selwood montage. Thanks Fox.

Raise your hand if you kept the faith after last week.

Lol @ Taberner getting the Bronx cheers

Dogga not doing his sticker price much good tonight.

Loving the silence around the ground. Music to the ears.

Trac leading all comers for tackles. Love to see it.

Great start Frittata

God that’s a frustrating rule. He went for the damn ball.

Beat me to it. The AFL average is 10. Swans had 22 against Adelaide. We had goose egg. In a weird way that gives me cause for hope cause the scope for improvement is so huge. We put ourselves in a position to win with a pretty non-existent forward half defense. The only way is up.

Odd feeling reading this thread. I’m a long way from hitting the panic button that others seem to be smashing. I agree the lack of forward pressure and getting well beaten at stoppages are concerns, but up until halftime that was looking a lot like the ‘good Melbourne’ I’m familiar with. Some of the ball movement was as good as you’ll ever see. Not blaming May for the loss but take away that brain explosion and this could easily be a post-match win we are discussing. If we trust the coaches and conditioning staff to have the players cherry ripe leading into finals, we will finish top four.

Oh get stuffed. Have to reward tackles like that.

Harmes is playing a stinker.

The long sleeves make me hate him more somehow.

Say what you want about Melk. The man knows how to kick a football.

Langers. What a kick.

Just put Gus in the AA team now.

JJ back on.

Geeze there are some rough heads in that Bulldogs cheer squad.
