Straight Sets Simon

I'm guessing the players don't love him then?

You're comparing Garlett with Melksham?

I'd love the Crows to win.

After that effort I'm tipping a West Coast and Hawthorn Grand Final.

They should be booing their own players, Fremantle's decision making is simply putrid. If Sydney had a couple less injuries they would bee all over Fremantle.

Fremantle's decision making when they take a mark is reminiscent of Melbourne's.

I'm convinced that umpires don't know the holding the ball rule. I'd be surprised if many of them can tie their own shoelaces.

I don't think anyone frothed over those players, also what did we have to give up to get them? Not much. The fact that we know most of those players were a mistake should be a lesson to not repeat it again with Melksham.

The only way I'd even think of taking Melksham would be as a rookie.

I think I might vomit.

Will this nightmare never end?

This. Anyone who has studied even the slightest bit of sports economics would understand that socialism in team competition sport is the best way to go. I remember when people were complaining about Brisbane's dominance, well look at them now.

You're missing my point, the grounds aren't identical in size and shape. If it were a basketball court or a soccer pitch I would agree, but Etihad as a ground suits the Bulldogs and how they play which is what they are missing out on. It's essentially a neutral venue.

100% disagree. If Etihad was the best ground you would be happy for Melbourne to play finals there?

If Barry Prendergast rated him highly then I'm suddenly less interested.

Can we please make this a thing.

He's struggled playing with Hawkins, he will struggle playing with Hogan.

It's a disgrace that the Bulldogs have to play their final at the MCG, if the grounds had the exact same size dimensions, both had a roof only the MCG held more people then I would understand but the Bulldogs are giving up a huge advantage. It's the same as Melbourne having to play a final at Etihad instead of the MCG.

And some people still think it's Melbourne's development that has been our biggest problem. Amazing.

Easily the oldest head in the AFL.

The Garland result is the biggest surprise to me, he may do his job but his use of the ball has been costly this year.

Mitch White with 16 votes after one game is impressive.

The article has been edited, it did say that Melbourne had put forward a four year deal to him. I guess that's what happens when your source is BigFooty.

Well done, Jack and Bernie.

Jake Melksham.
