No doubt we will get smashed if some of our players drop an easy chest mark then get comfy on the recliner and watch it all unfold like Brad Hill did last week. The one thing that has stood out to me so far is our ability to play right until the last second of the game. I think we will be in this for a long way.

Yeah, the ‘haven’t beaten anyone’ tag is starting to frustrate me especially when other teams fans throw it out there in a conversation. Most ‘experts’ and footy followers had us missing finals preseason and probably would have pencilled us in for at least a couple of losses in the first five rounds. We beat the teams people thought would beat us and “ oh... but you’ve beaten bottom teams”. Definitely sterner tests to come but so far the signs are promising.

We haven’t had one of these fun threads this season and it’s worked so far. Disclaimer : This topic commenced later than the Days Since Last Loss thread. Days Since Last Loss thread is now the rightful owner of the word ‘jinx’ should we lose. Fire away....

Big news continue. Mourinho sacked overnight just days before the League Cup final. Reportedly he was against Spurs joining the Super League.

Hope Jones gets some rest this week at some stage, he’ll be on SEN this morning after 7.

He reminds me of Christian Slater....no idea why. Recruiting Langdon has changed the dynamic of this team.

Very close to voting Yes. What makes me all warm and fuzzy right now is seeing some individuals become team first players and not being content with a couple of highlights. This team means business, time will tell if we are good enough for the ultimate glory. Trac slammed his fist on the turf 4 times in anger just after the half time siren, obviously very disappointed with himself for spraying the shot on goal just before half time. Watching Lever rule the roost back there is a sight for sore eyes. I love the fact they expect better when making errors. Very encouraging signs to say the least.

I read banners are back next week, can’t wait to see a big 300 next to Jones’ pic Saturday night. What a night to look forward to.

Learning to win different ways is a good thing really, wasn’t expecting it to blow out to 50...nice bonus. Go you Dees!!!

Good teams bang down doors and I’m sure not many in the firsts will be just sitting back nice and cozy.

I know it’s only one quarter but surely some must be salivating watching the two boys up forward.

Disappointing Benny Brown, that was only a 6 step run-up for goal.

Jetta in the centre square. Is he tagging a specific player?

You’d call yourself silly if you thought City would go one better than the last derby FD. It was incredible, one team sniffed blood and went for it while the other went looking for a hole to crawl into for the rest of the season. Was trying to figure out after the game a 7-0 result is like what in AFL? The margin mentioned several posts above comes close to describing the Victory performance.

Just returned home from the Melb City v Melb Victory game. Is it too late to text some Essendon mates telling them City scored more goals than their team tonight?

Wow...great ticker shown by the Giants right there. Haven’t said that too often , well played.

Langdon would not have dropped that mark.

Thanks, sounds simple enough D_J.....will supporters get their reserved seats back if it eventuates? Oh sorry...I was sure I didn’t select the 1-5 option. There’s not one of us under 5 so I thought it could be an issue.

I got through to someone at the club daisy and he assured me scanning junior tickets won’t be a problem as the MCG staff are well aware and understanding of the ticketing problems encountered by supporters.

Just heard on radio there is a chance of going 100% capacity by Anzac Eve, all depending on trialling some new format this weekend with the ticketing agencies. Health Department to make a call as early as next Monday possibly.

Lol, a two hour window on a working day to try and get tickets. I’ve somehow ended up with 6 x junior 1-5 years tickets. Wonder if they will let us in.

Well...my nephew’s 15th Birthday party just came to life and he’s wondering why there’s only 13 candles on his cake. Fantastic news.

There was talk a couple of weeks ago of going 100% capacity by Round 6 DD, gone quiet since though. There were a lot of perplexed and frustrated Melbourne supporters around us on Sunday. Watching Cats’ fans not only in an MFC reserved area but in your actual reserved seat was a head scratcher.

Enjoying watching him so far, just looks relaxed and controlled. Love it when the supporters find extra voice when he starts to run. He burnt Dahlhaus in the first quarter with ease after starting behind him and the look on Dahlhaus whilst chasing was priceless....and that 50-60 metre chase he didn’t give up on in the last quarter when he wasn’t going to get near the Geelong players was inspiring, he actually beat 3 of his teammates after starting way behind them to get closest to helping Lever.
