Jaded No More

Definitely a Sunday. We’ve had our 5 day break leading into the Port game and the AFLPA are very strong on only one 5 day break per team this season. It will probably be a 3:20pm at the MCG given we don’t fly home until tomorrow, and then Saturday night prime time vs Geelong in the last round. Fair to say there will not be any crowds allowed in before finals 😭

A golden opportunity for revenge after the Prelim humiliation. Let’s show the world how far we’ve come since then and why 2021 is different to 2018. We need to start off strongly to shut their dumb booing fans out. A Monday night, rain and poor form hopefully means a less than full house.

A role player that every good premiership team has.

Look there’s nothing surer than us blowing up this incredible opportunity we’ve been handed. #MelbournedoingMelbournethings

That is a massive blow for them. Suddenly it’s down to Naughton to carry the forwardline. He’s an excellent forward but that’s a lot of pressure against the best defenses come finals.

They are dropping like flies after a long season with full length games. But if they can pull off an injury free run from here on in they can absolutely win it. They don’t have anymore travel now either which really helps. They are mature and experienced and that always helps in finals. They know how to win it. The closest we got with this squad is a smashing in a Prelim.

You know the Bont is winning the Brownlow just by how much the umpires love and protect him

Did Bruce just do his knee?

Umpires will win it. As I said.

Nothing surer than us losing now.

If you can win the clearances against the Dogs you can beat them. Their backline is horrible. All attack zero defence.

2 Meter Peter take a bow mate!!!

Umpires will ensure Dogs win this. Don’t worry about that.

Essendon doing well. Breaking even in clearances and putting the Dog’s poor defense under pressure. Shutting down Daniels. It’s the way to go. Umps will make sure Dogs won’t lose tho.

Group chat was going off during this event. It is the most bizarre, difficult, dramatic and visually stimulating event of the Olympics.

She’s done amazingly well. ROC cheats win again 🙄 Well done Australia. McDermott did so so well.

Nice kick to Aliir Aliir. For the 19th time. Seriously Adelaide. Dead to me. We gotta win on Monday. No excuses.

Useless Adelaide.

Well Port won.

Adelaide kicking it to Aliir Aliir every time is not helping

I hate Powell Pepper.

Saints gonna choke here?

Adelaide have no forwardline without their racist ex captain. That’s a real issue.

I’m watching now. Port are trying a bit. Adelaide are no good.

I’m switching between the Saints Swans game and artistic swimming at the Olympics. It’s a lot of visual stimulation 😂
