Jaded No More

Brisbane talk a lot of [censored] for a team that has not won a flag since Y2K 🙄

Demonland after a loss is a special place

6-McDonald - the only player who comprehensively won his position 5- Gawn 4- Rivers 3- Chandler 2- Langdon 1- Lever On ballers have a night they would want to forget. Never seen Clarry Trac and Viney all stink simultaneously

So it’s Max’s job to stop 3 Brisbane on ballers from reading his taps? Or is it the job of our 3 on ballers to get their hands on the footy? If our mids can’t read Max’s taps, then heaven help us. They’ve played together long enough.

I’ve watched him kick 6 in a prelim and lift a premiership cup and wear 6 AA jackets. We won hit outs tonight 58 to 27 ffs. You really think Gawn is the reason we lost? Name a better ruckman in the AFL right now. I’ll wait.

Doubt anyone who actually watched the game is thinking that margin reflects the results. We were comprehensively beaten by a side that played much better football. Last week Norf went down by 70. I rather not see that from my team.

Max is a 6 time AA premiership captain. He is not overrated, he’s one of the greatest ruckman of all time. Give it a rest, this is never an argument that you’ll win.

Much easier to dominate a quarter when the opposition know they’ve won the game. Just saying.

They also tell me that we don’t just give up. Would you rather lose by 60? I am not suggesting the final score was a reflection of the true result, because it wasn’t. But better to give something than give up. Those were the Neeld days. I don’t ever want to see that again.

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
