red&blue1982

Sensitive.

He won some fifty fifties, but looked shaky again. Unsure in decision making. Not sure what's up with him.

Agreed. Brisbane have been my biggest worry, and Langdon is an absolute gun!

Are we joking about Brayshaw? He needs time in the seconds to get back in form.

We had a lack of good big men in the past, we shouldn't give that depth up.

So negative.

What evidence?

Brisbane are an ugly team that are going to be hard to beat.

Such negative comments. I think people forget how good Sydney are. It's another impressive win, so for me there should be mostly praise for our players.

Brisbane player on the wing swung around twice in a tackle and no free kick, but then the other way around in front of goal was paid! Hard to watch.

I'm leaning towards the 1994 team. From my memory the 1994 team had more star quality, the 2000 team had more balance. I think we've had a few other teams aswell that were better than the 2018 team; the 1998 team was definitely better as some other posters above have eluded to.

When did Frost become Gary Ablett? Hehe, a little overboard. Howe is revered now, but wasn't at Melbourne. I, with obviously many think it's part of a bad pattern our club.

The comparison is of Frost now and Howe back when he was at Melbourne, why do you state that Frost isn't half the player Howe is? They're at different stages of their carrers. I think the comparison is about highlighting the difference between clubs ability to get the most out of players. And if Melbourne can't get the best out of the raw talent that Frost has, other clubs will.

I had a bad feeling the other day that a club like Hawthorn would definitely want him and support him to the next level. It's like a recurring nightmare. Us giving up talent for some low (who cares) draft pick and Hawthorn scouting talent from everywhere. The thought is making me sick.

Pruess will kick a bag!

One word respone to this thread - Pessimism.

It seems the turd still hasn't been flushed!

You've got a right to have your opinion of course; but so do May and Frost, and they have to work together and build a relationship. They need space. To squelch any passion from our players right now seems totally regressive.

You'd want to pacify a player (May) that plays like a beast that isn't afraid of anyone? At a club (our club) who haven't had anyone so fearless and impassioned before in my short memory?

Please!

Fingers crossed!!

Mmm.. 5 million Jeff Kennett's... yuk! One is more than enough. Hehe. I get your point and agree.

Cool mate, i'll keep it in mind next gameday. Touch base for future matches.

A thread for all the Gold Coast Mebourne fans to engage in, catch up to watch the match somewhere, discuss getting to the grounds up here. I'll most likely be watching Melb v Freo at Fisherman's Wharf Tavern. Would be great to catch up with some others Dees for the match! Go the Dees!!

I think there needs to be more sophisticated methods used to ensure fans treat other fans with respect. Perhaps replace the wages for the new crowd behavioural officers (watch dogs) with wages for a team of people who conduct surveys pre and post gameday about their experience. This is just a quick thought that came to mind as an example. I don't really care what the method is, but i assume it's better to work with fans rather than alienating or punishing them.
