Jaded No More

Burn the tape and move on. It is clear that our midfield has got away with subpar performances all year, but not tonight. A big area for improvement.

It’s the meltdowns from supporters for me

Putrid display. Throw away the tape

This is a very non Melbourne performance.

It all comes down to the midfield. We are getting smashed in clearances and contested possessions. That’s the game. You can’t blame the forwardline when the midfield is not able to win the ball.

Missing Kosi badly. Could spark our midfield right now.

Probably the worst half of football I’ve seen us play in many many years. Midfield is having an absolute mare.

Iconic 🫡

One of my all time favourite players. Absolute legend

Stop listening to John Ralph, start listening to @Dannyz

School holidays and decent enough weather will help. I reckon we will push 45k

No rain in the South East here at all

Thank you for the voice of calm 👏🏼

Kolt’s mother is 100% the best recruit of the off season

And Pies have a bye so Nev should be free from filth duties.

The fact that Viney is his role model and mentor means I have never been more relaxed about a player's debut. Knock em dead Kolt* *Do not get suspended

We have never debuted a kid as the sub. Doubt we will start now. Also I think his debut was dependant on the result of Kosi's hearing, so not sure how quickly his family can come over given they are some distance away. Hopefully they can make it!

It has definitely crossed my mind that there is more than a hint of racism in all this. Media were at pains to paint Maynard as Mother Teresa, but Kosi is the biggest snipper in the game? Something stinks

Hot tip: neither Jed or Harry will be replacing Kosi this week You’ll be fine 😂

Is our interest more recent because we’ve been told Gus’ contract is off the books? Or because we are resigned to losing Petty? Or is it neither?

I planned our wedding for the weekend before the footy season starts so we can always go away for our anniversary … and then they went and introduce [censored] round 0! 🙄😡

RIP kid. I hope you enjoy the orphanage.

This. No wonder the AFL media is at an all time low.

Nothing will ever make up for the injustice that Gus and our club was served over the Maynard incident. Kosi deserves a week in the current climate and it takes nothing away from the rage that still burns inside all of us for Maynard, Collingwood and the AFL. Kosi has missed too many games for too many poor choices. He is a match winner and his absence from games is incredibly costly. I hope he learns and I hope he doesn’t ever have to meet the MRO again.
