Game Day Melbourne vs The bye

[Crimson Azure]

I know the last record of a team playing the bye ended in bitter disappointment but I think things will go better for us.

One of the great joys of an AFL season is the weight lifted off our collective shoulders not having to worry about football for a week.

The Bye by 22 in a low scoring affair.

fingers crossed lads

Bye to roll us in the second half after we kick 1.8 in the first.

 

[SugarHealey]

Is it time for the board to play they're game...?

No more deck chairs. It's time to plateau, and to start to rejig the list from the base we now sit at. Plan for the 2024 draft, and beyond.

Maybe I’m a glass half full but we have a lot of young players filling roles. Forward line full of under 24’s; backline had 3 starters under 23; bench had no one over 24. We’re not falling over the edge Geelong like, we just have an old/ young mix. Could still click

Also, everyone saying we should rebuild. We are in a sense. So much youth playing in the best team in the last 5 years. Let it settle

 

[Bluelegs]

Do I know what rhetorical means?

Just because we have young guys playing doesn’t guarantee the rebuild will be successful, it’s pretty obvious outside Kozzy and maybe Windsor none of our younger guys scream AA quality. I’d rather not be St Kilda and rebuild with no elite talent.

Secondly we are not the best team of the last 5 years lol, and that’s also such a weird thing to say when aside from 2021 it’s been a very frustrating period to be a supporter.

I think we can hold them to 0.0.0, not sure we'll score more.

No, no - we don't play North until the following week!

 

[netslave]

watch us struggle to a 2 goal win over North and Goody will pronounce our season back on track.

North undefeated in recent memory, we're cooked.

I'm quite enjoying this match. Most entertaining we have played in years.

 

[SugarHealey]

Bye bye Dees.

We'll lose percentage this week for sure.

We’ve let inanimate carbon rod get off the chain though.

Yeah well, blame Goody for not running a tagger. Knew he would revert back to old after only 1 week.
