Analysis Death-Riding Melbourne 2018 (now with poll)

[mattymac]

With Melbourne's 2018 first round pick in the bank from the Lever trade, here it is. The Melbourne death ride.

I actually think Melbourne will do ok, but for shits and gigs lets hope for player unrest connected to Joke Lever becoming their highest paid player and a fall back to their lazy ways of old after overachieving in 2017 and reaching the dizzying heights of 9th on the ladder.

hopefully this is all part of the plan and Goody's not betraying us after all

EDIT: how many players do Melbourne still have that know what tanking feels like?

 

[DoubleBlue2]

Too quick.

 

[Scorpus]

Bottom four finish, come on down!

Melbourne to get a dream draw and finish top 4 in 2018. Bookmark it.

No chance they don't make finals next year unless they have a horrendous injury run

 

[rocket18]

In for a new experience next year, be watching Melbourne games with interest.

I do get the feeling they will be next on Gill's miraculous premiership drought breaking VFL fairy tale arm chair ride list

Got a Lever doll and a full packet of needles. Which ****ing knee was it?

Reckon it was both... and his genitals as well I think

That would be a hat trick of them, and probably bring too much attention to the AFL dodgyness. Reckon a 3-5 finish more likely.

Agree, stage is set for GWS to win one.

Agent Goodwin, report for duty

 

[hippyhippy]

have they started selling their finals tickets yet?

 

[Big Crow]

They're a good side, will play finals in 2018. Sneaky chance for top 4.

Still not the worst for us.

 

[BTs Nana]

Bunch of pretentious campaigners anyway.

Will be riding their spoon with glee.

Will be unpredictable. Could make a Prelim. Could go first week of finals. Should make finals though. Goodwin will be turfed if they don't

Their best-22 on paper has the potential to finish top 4. But it's Melbourne we are talking about here.

 

[Bazz_27]

enjoy

sure you enjoyed the hawks demise this year!

 

[pjcrows]

I've got them in the Top 4.

 

[Scorpus]

I've got them in the Top 4.

Yeah unfortunately I can see them giving us about pick 14-16 next year

 

[Jarman3]

I'm gonna put a lazy $100 on them to make the 8 next year.

That will fix their little red wagon good and proper.

Having said that, up until about a month ago that was our standard Richmond refrain.
