The heart beats true

No you don’t. Brisbane had 9 players out from last week due to injury and Covid protocols. Why are Melbourne supporters so keen to kick their own? It’s bizarre. That win against Brisbane was amazing.

There’s only one way to settle it. An unnecessary poll.

He’s had an interrupted few months. Do we need a new thread for every negative thought everyone has? I really don’t like Pineapple on pizza. Should I start a thread?

I just have this feeling Essendon will fall in a hole, but I’m holding out hope Daniher or Hipwood will do one of their trade mark dumb things and cough the game up.

This makes me feel better. That bloke knows nothing about the modern game.

Listening to Dangerfield commentate is a really good reminder of all the reasons I don’t like him.

My instant reaction was ‘why would Alex Neal-Bullen want to play at Collingwood?’

On the percentage ladder they are 12th. Tells you everything about how lucky they’ve been in a season where 2 of the teams have essentially been byes.

If you take your arm off the ball to draw the tacklers arm high it should be considered prior and holding the ball. It’s ruining the game. Supporters absolutely loathe it.

Collingwood win another close game that they shouldn’t have. It’s driving me insane.

This is why I phone it in for every job I ever do. No fluctuations in form means everyone’s always guessing.

Big Goldie just reminding Mason he’s been at this for 20 years longer.

I dunno. Beetroot just slides around the place and makes my shirt look like a crime scene. Maybe I’m UnAustralian?

I thought North were really honest against us. Collingwood have won so many tight games this year. They are due.

Great to see 17th vs 7th playing at a ground with capacity for 100,000 people - unlike Thursday nights 1st vs 2nd played at a stadium with a current capacity of 21,000. Remind me again AFL what the point of being successful is?

I’m starting to buy into the conspiracy theory that Demonland asked Jackson to stay unsigned for as long as possible in order to drive up advertising revenue on this site.

I think we were happy for them to show us what they have. They spoiled our ruckman hard and and away from the contest consistently, and the set up around stoppage a certain way - which is awesome to know in July. We didn’t change much until the last quarter when we shifted the forward line about the place and scored differently. We know what they want to do now. I’m still convinced that we aren’t changing much up in game because we don’t need to. We are in a learning phase about what others want to do against us. We still have the best midfield and defence in the competition. I think we are keeping our powder dry.

Jackson ‘I’m not sure what I want to do next year. I miss my mum, and it rains sometimes in Victoria’. Oliver ‘I’ve just signed a 7 year contract and had my thumb smashed. Just cut the bloody thing off and I’ll see you at training in the morning’. Clayton is what I’ve waited my whole life as a Demon supporter to have. Enormously skilled, tough, determined, and committed to our club.

I don’t think he’s Un Australian. I don’t even know what it means to be ‘Un Australian’. Does that mean he doesn’t have an egg on his burger, and he says Shrimp when he means Prawns? Regardless I can’t stand Nick. He’s a petulant child whose now been charged with assault. It’s not about what country he comes from, it’s the fact that as a culture we are sick of people who treat women like objects. I hope I never see his terrible haircut and stinky attitude ever again.

Oliver is an absolute gem. He’s hard, loves the club, plays second fiddle to Tracc and Gawn in the medias eyes and is our best player a minimum 15 weeks a year, every year. I firmly believe he will go down in history as the greatest Melbourne player ever. We are blessed to have him, and I hope all our supporters appreciate how special he is.

They cut to the cheer squad only once last night in the broadcast. They showed the bloke with the blonde hair going absolutely bananas at the umpire when Hawkins held May and the umps did nothing. @WalkingCivilWar if you know that bloke tell him he’s a legend. I was doing the same thing at home.

Wow. Take a walk and pet a dog. Chill.

5 day rest off a combative interstate night game at the hardest ground to win at in Australia. Context is everything. We are better than we looked last night. Our draw is a literal joke compared to everyone else’s. Just got to stick together and back each other in to get the job done when it counts.

My biggest issue is Geelong don’t insist on. Every year Scott comes out and preaches to his local choir about how it’s unfair that they don’t play finals in Geelong - yet 2 weeks ago they played a Geelong ‘home’ game against Richmond at the MCG and nobody from their club said a word. They are so hypocritical about it.

May as well call it what it is… Financially Disadvantaged Stadium.
