  1. Worst win in a long time. Very few positives.
  2. Why is that when a Melboure player takes a mark the last place he looks is towards goal?
  3. Panic stations. Put away the cute little kicks and start putting the thing to the top of the square.
  4. Good start, shame I missed the first quarter because of Metro. Anyone else been stuffed around by them?
  5. Actually he was a terrible media performer before he came to Melbourne.
  6. I much prefer to listen to Buckley than Roos.
  7. This probably isn't really relevant to the thread exactly, but it's a story that I've been wanting to share for a while now. My better half is a primary school teacher and after the Geelong win the kids were doing some free drawing as it was near the end of term. My missus noticed that one little boy was drawing a Melbourne jumper, so she asked him why he was drawing this. He looked up and with a big grin said "Because we won." At this same school there are over 700 students and each year when everyone dresses up in their footy team colours you will be lucky to see 10 wearing red and blue. This includes kids who wear their local team colours which happen to be Melbourne's. I just hope that sooner rather than later we can start attracting more supporters through winning and playing well as opposed to just relying on family.
  8. I'm sick of the oversaturation of the football media in general. Melbourne losing all the time doesn't help but what annoys me is there is no accountability and everyone's opinions seem to change week-to-week based on the previous weekend's results.
  9. Just about every game we have lost has been because of the loose man in defence.
  10. Man up the loose man and he no longer becomes an issue. Nothing wrong with long kicks into the forward line, in fact it is the best way to play if you have the targets there to kick it to.
  11. When will we learn?
  12. This is either going to be our worst win or worst loss.
  13. Just wanting to show this again.
  14. Who's JKH on for? Fox Footy haven't said.
  15. McDonald's kicking skills are back to 2013 levels.
  16. I'd tear my hair out if Stanton played for Melbourne.
