  1. I want us to score more than 100 points in a game.
  2. But we need another key defender, sadly McDonald and Dunn aren't big enough.
  3. What was wrong with them? We raised over $500 for the Mt Theo youth program in Yuendumu from the sale of those t-shirts.
  4. Fitzpatrick is a crumbing forward trapped inside the body of a ruckman.
  5. No need to be rude about it.
  6. I'm not sold on Newton just yet, that fifty metre penalty he gave away at the end of the Essendon game was something a seasoned Melbourne player would do. Not someone who has only just come from a successful team.
  7. I agree to a point, but speed over the first five or so steps is paramount.
  8. Melbourne are too slow to pull the trigger going forward, first instinct is sideways and backwards. I hope this isn't a result of the coaching.
  9. I've made that comparison many times in my mind already.
  10. Looks good, but I would have vandenBerg in for Viney or Newton.
  11. No, Todd Viney.
  12. That's assuming we would get something for him.
  13. What are the chances that Toumpas will be given a new contract after this season?
  14. With regards to Viney looking sideways first it's not just him, all Melbourne players need to improve this.
  15. That's my only criticism of his game.
  16. I used to bang on about this in 2007, nothing's changed.
  17. I think this will become the elephant in the room if things don't improve.
  18. He's not alone there, so many Melbourne players just give it of without first tryng to create some space for themselves to work in.
  19. On a positive note Watts, Lumumba, Garlett and vandenBerg all showed a lot.
  20. So did Trengove, Gibbs and maybe even Tapscott.
