Pies just look very average all over the field, hard to see what they are trying to do

Pies are tanking

I wouldn't get to excited yet, the blues still have some handy players, they will struggle to do that with any consistency and the Tigers were pretty average and missing some good players, but your point does stand. Buckley and Hardwick to me are both very average coaches, Don Pyke looks like being a pretty good find over at the crows

Swan won't be playing

I think Lumumba's experience was missed a bit today at times, so i'd probably go Out: Pedo, O'mac In: Dunn, Lumumba give Brayshaw another good run in the 2's

I don't think Tyson is a bad kick, i just think he's a bit lazy at times and makes some awful decisions and doesn't execute well enough

i was huge on Parish and still firmly believe he'll be a very good player but my god, Oliver is something else!

It's scary to think what some good sides could do to the bombers this year, they're us of 2013

Gus Brayshaw and Hogan last year, Oliver and Petracca and even Weeds at some point should have an impact this year good signs

he was well held after half time but some very important clearances, i personally feel 23 touches, 15 contested and 7 clearances or whatever it was should get him right in the mix for the rising star nod

2 interesting stats 1. Clayton Oliver had 15 contested touches, record for a first gamer is a tie between Jack Viney and Ollie Wines on 16 2. Jack watts had 100% disposal efficiency 4 score involvements and a goal in the last quarter

Jesse Hogan woke up

Has kicked 2 goals in a row since you posted this, but i agree

I hope they get the rocket to end all rockets at 3/4 time, especially Jesse

They're right on top but a couple of quick goals to us would really knock the wind out of their sails

if we want to play finals we need to win games like this. it's that simple

Reminds me a bit of the port game, they aren't going to beat us, we are handing them most of their scores on a plate.

we have dropped right off and they haven't made us pay, when we find our mojo again we will be fine

hogan needs to find a way to get involved and build some confidence

Jack Watts and Matt Jones have transformed, they are so far from the 2015 models it's crazy.

He doesn't duck his head the way Selwood does, he just wants it more than anyone else on the ground.

This is a totally different Melbourne team, weathered a bit of an early run on from the Giants and have hit back hard now, and still playing well below what i think they can, dominating out of the centre but not converting
