Folded. Tassie becomes the 18th team and that’s all this competition can sustain. McKercher becomes the inaugural captain.

It is pretty ordinary and Crows have a decent fwd set up.

Each week in addition to my other bets I do 8 x 9 game multis at $5 each (every AFL game, all head to head) By doing 8 bets can take 3 games each way. This week I’ve taken Cats v Blues Freo v Dogs North v Crows all each way. If all / the majority of favourites get up it doesn’t pay much but if a few of the long shots get up it can pay quite nicely.

Anyone give North a chance? I’ve tipped the Crows but taken North each way in a few multis.

We got the 4 points, most of us have 4 days off. Plenty more betting to be done and time spent with family. Looking to McAdam coming in against Geelong and our mids getting back to form we showed against Port, and finally any chance we can open up our fwd 50. We often look so congested when going inside 60.

Oh wow, this is a serious post. My wife said the same thing, she’s been following Melbourne and the sport as a whole for 8 years. I’m not trying to be disrespectful but Mel Bourne’s post was hardly visionary, what Melbourne did last night was what we do just about every time we play a team we should put away. I posted we should be aiming to win each qtr by 4 goals, because that’s what I believe a team of our calibre should be doing, when we play a bottom 4 team with 6 of its best players missing. Had Mel Bourne or anyone else told me last week to load up on the Eagles, well then I’d be sitting up taking notice. And while I’m going to all the posters / commentators who continue to roll out the Yze / McQualter factor played its part last night. This is the nearly the most scrutinised / analysed game in the world, with stats, graphs or heat maps for just about everything. Clubs have coaches whose sole job is to study the opposition. All clubs know what other clubs are going to do 99% of the time.

?

We should pump them & if we do I still won’t be getting excited. Cats & Blues is the real test for the season so far.

Should be aiming to win each qtr by 4 goals.

Considering Richmond’s injuries we need to put them away early. Our real test comes the following weeks against the Cats and Blues. Looking at this weeks results 4 & 2 on face value is good but we effectively haven’t beaten a serious contender yet.

Port have beaten Eagles Tigers Bombers And Freo by default

Saints were similar to us against Brisbane, stuffed.

The club have been very proactive in recent years in signing / re signing players. We also have recent experience in players wanting to go home ie L.J. Petty is contracted until the end of next season, I’m guessing we’ve already offered him a new contract which supersedes his current. I think he’s definitely a keeper because of his ability and age. He can replace May in 1-2 years time. If we’re getting L.J vibes we need to move on someone else, can’t afford to get caught with our pants down.

When they tackle we can’t dispose of it and are caught holding the ball. When we tackle they dispose of it with ease.

That kick was WTF, kick it sideways if nothing else.

I think the Eagles may be a sneaky.

Really excited to see him play. Could the club not have told him yesterday to give his family more time to get over to Melbourne?

600K is a lot of money.

Would love nothing more than a fit Jake Melksham for the run into finals. He’s a class player, great defensively and has a bit of X factor about him.

Out of interest have you ever had plantar fasciitis? Thanks

I honestly didn’t know who McAdam was until we drafted him. Looking fwd to him getting fit and seeing what he brings.

Unless we were guaranteed of picking up a gun key fwd with that pick then it’s a no, Petty I think is only 24 currently. We are still very much in our window this year and next. We’ve managed to find some great players in recent times with either later picks or rookie drafts. While May & Gawn are still out there we must go all out for another flag if not 2.

All in all an average round of games.

Can’t trust Swans, Saints or Tigers when betting.

Time to fold St.Kilda, Tigers have a lot out plus last years retirees. Embarrassing.
