Buzzy

Just classic Melbourne. Give away a soft bullsh*t goal in the last minute. But up the other end we have to work so bloody hard to even get an opportunity.

sorry, he only has one defensive effort per game and he already ticked it off in the first quarter.

He and Melksham too. We're not at training now boys.

Have we managed to stick a tackle today? Blokes just walking through us. Embarrassing.

I agree. I like Smith as a forward - or at least half-forward. With Howe and Pedo departing, we lost our only real marking strengths. Especially now Tmac has suddenly started judging the ball flight about as well his brother. The poor guy has played next to no footy in the last 3 years. We have to let him build confidence. It's pretty obvious he has more in his kit bag than Omac athletically, so we've got to give him a chance to learn the game and develop. Footy IQ... Not really our strong suit is it..

Whilst I'm sure he'll be better for the run, I prefer Smith up forward... God knows we were crying out for a target at half forward yesterday. Agree re Petty, he looks cumbersome but seems to get to the right spots. Where is he at the moment? Or just not best 22...

It wasn't for the sake of it though was it! He was proven to be correct. We nearly (should have) lost that game from a dominant position. Garry saw the signs early on and he was dead right. He doesn't trust us, even 42 points up - and nobody should. Not sure this is a great example for you to use.

Garry is spot on though. He's sick of it like we all are. What good does sugar coating it do?

and the only one who gets it is too nervous to kick straight..

Pathetic smile on his face at the end. Could you imagine Roos doing that?

Personally, I think we owe Smith another game after what the club did to him last year. He hasn't played in 18 months and will be better for the run. Has clearly more upside than Omac. None of the talls played well today.

Tomlinson can't play tall, yet also has no leg speed. Not really clear on his role.

HAHA seriously Viney. Straight to their ruckman. We do not deserve to win this.

Game plan: Be horribly conservative, but also be sure to panic at all times.

If you see Oliver standing the mark, just play on every time. The guy will NOT put pressure on.

Tom McDonald's timing is so woefully off, we're just carrying dead wood at the moment. Carlton have SO MUCH time on the ball now. I'm almost at a point where I hope we lose, so some meaningful change finally happens at the club. This has been sad to watch after quarter time.

We're better off just kicking it along the ground and hoping for the best at the moment.

How did he miss Harmes getting 50 and then getting blatantly blocked on his way to down to take the kick? It's a clear second 50 and certain goal when we had all the momentum. Ridiculous he let that go.

FFS Jones. If you can't see a forward target then why call for the handball receive? Then kick to nothing? This is our most senior player, what hope do we have if that's the example? 2 goal turnaround FFS

Zero composure all over the field. We're lucky to still be in front against a rabble.

Sloppy panicked Melbourne of old. Any danger of not letting the Carlton kick out player run all the way to the 50 without any pressure? Pressure has dropped off completely and so have our 'skills'. ? DANGER SIGNS

more than ever, but he still has no polish and that hurts us as a team. We are so light on for skilled players. If we're going to improve we can carry players with sub-par skills.

Neal-Bullen continues to be a chain killer. Every period of good clean possession ends when he gets it. It's either a fumble or a ridiculous attempt at a handball.

I hope we lose by 150 points next week. I don't know why, but this list don't want to play under Goodwin. If we don't make a change, yet another year will be completely wasted. Unwatchable heartless sh*t.

Cue Goody with: 'We never gave up and showed some improvement in the last quarter. Week to week we are improving.' ?
