Jaded No More

This. Unfortunately Rivers is the most dispensable down back, although he does do a good shut down role. Gus stays back and Salem replaces Rivers. Depending on form and fitness I wouldn’t be totally against trying Rivers on a wing alternating with JJ as he has good pace and a booming kick. Not sure he has the endurance however.

No team backing themselves to win a flag is going to tag 3 players, they will go in backing their own system. And the rest of the teams are just crap so good luck to them.

He is literally the best guy to listen to in footy. Just so happy and relaxed. It definitely doesn’t sound that bad and if they even suspected a PCL he would be on crutches for sure. Still reckon he takes a week off and doesn’t do that god awful trip to Perth.

The next two games will hurt us if we cop injuries. Otherwise I expect we collect the 4 points with minimum fuss and move on

Wow Langdon with 39 and still can’t crack top votes. Wingers get nothing 😂

Lyon, gets it right as often as Malthouse.

Exactly, should be 187.

If Gawn is not 100% he needs to rest. Too important to risk. Just play Weideman or Daw.

Lever bottom 7? What now?

Would you take pain killers for a corky?

Freo game will tell us more than the Brisbane game IMO as Freo play a very similar game style to us. Brisbane is a totally different team although a much more talented one than Freo on paper.

He is that far ahead of all other defenders this year it’s a joke he isn’t being spoken about more. It is truly a pleasure to watch this man play live. My favourite thing about watching him live is his leadership. He often calls the backs together for a chat after we concede a goal and calmly (well not really, it is May after all) talks them through positioning. Has held up the backline superbly with the continuous disruptions down there due to injuries and Covid. Just a gun. Second best thing about yesterday, win aside, was Trac coming to the bench in the second quarter, massive smile on his face, woo-hooing. It’s so nice to see how happy our team is. They worked so hard to be in a position to enjoy their footy and it’s only making them better.

Husband is a full Melbourne supporter now. Says “when are WE playing” and all. ANB is his favourite player. That’s how much of a Melbourne supporter he is!

This comment made me lol so hard

MFCSS says we lose the next two games then win the flag.

If only Tom McDonald didn’t kick that goal after the siren in the Grand Final…

Could he have been the hold over emergency? Gawn didn’t look 100%

Goody is pulling your leg. Lever was visibly limping and couldn’t put weight on the foot. He hurt it and was taking lots of painkillers.

They couldn’t go with him so they tried taking him out. Pathetic side.

Just date someone who isn’t mad for any side and turn them. Trust me, it’s great. They don’t know any better 😂

Yeah probably the next 2 weeks. GWS gave up. Richmond would have been a belting if we kicked straight.

Nah last contest of the game he was again heavily limping after jumping up to defend and landing on his feet. He is definitely suffering. I sit right by the bench and he was in serious pain. He was limping so badly. I worry that if we keep pushing him he will break. But I’m not a doctor and happy to be corrected.

Lingers Gus Clarry May Trac Brown

Lever out Tomlinson in Lever is buggered. He was on the bench popping pain killers like candy. Never a better time to rest him.

Zac Jones is an embarrassment to the Jones name. We are a great team. Lever deserves the next 2 weeks off.
