  1. Great time for North to get a morale boost. They have Essendon next week.
  2. I’ve seen nothing so far to suggest we are getting ahead of ourselves personally. I saw a team refusing to lose last Saturday night.
  3. I agree @Demon_spurs...might be time to look at the oppo fan preview. Had a quick look at Talking Carlton earlier in the week and the best they came up with at the time when talking about us was “ They have to lose at some stage.”
  4. Not tonight on here ?
  5. Foxtel Mini Game replay at least a couple of times a night until next game day. Don’t mind these minis, can catch up on some of the other games in case you’ve missed some of the action.
  6. Where does training at Casey rate in terms of big changes? Fitness is an obvious factor but I haven’t seen us cover the G like that before. The speed in which we shift across the ground when a team attempts a switch is lightning.
  7. The man has actually tested positive here in Vic after completing quarantine in SA Cass. We received a text from the government tonight as some of the exposure sites are in our area. Watch this space I guess.
  8. We might not even get there with the latest COVID case here.
  9. They stated on 360 they were out celebrating Bolton’s girlfriend’s birthday.
  10. Not sure how it’s measured, was on the MFC site. In both cases you mention we did touch the ball, a Jordon errant handball and a Brayshaw attempted handball. Centre bounce clearances: Melbourne: 4 | Sydney: 17 Centre bounce metres gained: Sydney +522m (Despite the Swans’ dominance, they only scored one behind from centre bounces)
  11. Good stuff all, apologies if I’ve missed it but the defence should get a bonus in their pay packet this week. According to the stats that matter we only conceded 1 behind from Sydney’s centre bounce dominance.
  12. No problem Beetle, respect your opinion. He’s close to us as he predominantly plays the members wing and between the arcs. I see him chat a lot and barking instructions. We can only go by what we see and I think he’s playing his role well.
  13. Quietly cheering for the Blues (yuk), two games clear if they win, plus it might attract a few of them to attend next week.
  14. Watching it again Oliver was another that could’ve certainly closed the space down on Lloyd but I saw May give Melksham a mouthful only. A few players threw their arms up in the air due to that breakdown.
  15. CHEESE THEY’RE GOOD... Latest headline from HS, keep em coming....bloody tasty cheese though.
  16. Not only did he wear Buddy like a glove, May demands perfection Ox. He’s as vocal as any player I’ve ever seen before during play. Go back to Lloyd’s goal for Sydney in the third that started their run. How does a guy that takes their kick-outs find himself all alone inside our 50? If you watch the replay Melksham sees him but just jogs casually, Lloyd uncontested turns and goals. May let Melksham know all about it in no uncertain terms.
  17. He won’t be getting dropped anytime soon. I think you need to watch the game a little closer Doc. His game has a lot to do with the team rather than gaining a truckload of possessions. The amount of running he does to get back and set-up in our defensive 50 is incredible. Yes, we all would like our players to hit targets 100% of the time but it won’t happen. He’s a big reason why teams are finding it hard to score against us. Half his possessions came from intercepts last night.
  18. 35 tackles in forward 50 for the Swans?????Must be some kind of record.
  19. That was one brutal game from ground level and conditions were fairly slippery all night. The hits were hard and our boys just kept fighting on and on. Pure G & D! Such a professional outfit are the Swans and they have tormented us for a decade, absolutely ecstatic we got the W. Oliver’s last quarter has been highlighted already but he literally was everywhere in that quarter. Harmes ran his backside off all game and was very pleased with his return. They all did their bit at different stages but a big shout out to Jordon. Kid is meeting every challenge thrown at him. Coaches recognised Dawson was a problem for us in the third quarter with his intercepts and they put Jordon on him in the last to do a defensive job up forward and it certainly had an influence. On a night where goals were incredibly hard to get T Mac was BOG for mine.
  20. There’s a fair amount still streaming in, they were just having a dart and enjoying some hot jam donuts.
  21. Thank goodness for a half time melee in the Suns game. That was the most entertaining bit so far.
  22. Daisy giving us a plug. On ya Daisy!
  23. Probably in the minority but not perturbed. Weird to feel like this when it comes to changes as the season goes on.
  24. Bugger, Jesse injured again. Wanted him to kick a bag against the Bombers.
