On what for those of us "working"

On what for those of us "working"

Kingy basically slammed Melbourne medical staff because Petracca ended up going yo the hospital at 3/4 time but was subbed off at half time. Chief didn’t like the tone of it so said he trusts medicos and let’s just leave it and see what happens, so it kinda went back and forth for a bit

 

[Paracleet]

Stopped clock maybe, but King was right. No way he should have gone back on.

 

[Madas]

If you have time pre book a MCG museum visit and a MCG tour . Well worth the cost.

Thanks

Yep have booked the museum but didn’t know about the ground tour , is that seperate ?

Caro reckons Yeo to Norf.

Cause that's what they need... another midfielder.

 

[Lach72]

Just watching Jack Roo’s big spiel on
Dusty and his almost 300 games.


Got me thinking about the vagaries of this game and how our “Dusty” played a season every bit as good as Dusty’s first, then blew four knees and never really played again…

And even taking into considerations some more finals, how when we got a dual Brownlow medalist, he’s played 69 games less than Dusty.

Over three full seasons of football less because he’s been cruelled by injury.

Footy sucks some times

 

[Minz]

Personally, I love the idea that Melbourne is an average team, because if the Dockers can absolutely pants a league-average team, well, that a strooong team we have

 

[PurpleEyes]

Freo curse is what? 11/12 if this game continues the way it is? Even the dees somehow turn it around it’ll 10/12

It shows just how good Sydney are going ... even the Freo curse couldn't stop them from winning the following week.

Isn't LDU one foot out the door?

 

[james haish]

Nah, Essendon and Carlton are middle range sides. Essendon are very average and kicked 9.16 tonight, but smashed Carlton in inside 50s, 57 - 37.

Tbh that's an insane stat considering how average Essendon's midfield is and Carlton's is meant to be filled with prime movers.

Yeah true. I didn't think of that..

 

[james haish]

Can't see how Melbourne turn this match nor their season around. Their forward method is terrible. The players down there are a problem, but it's not like Kreuger and Hoskin-Elliot are any better than say Van Rooyen and Fritsch. Pickett should be more dangerous than Hill, Schultz, etc.

They play a very dull style, worse than us at our worst tbh. Considering the midfield firepower they've had, the past two seasons of straight sets finals exits should ring alarm bells about Goodwin's coaching.

 

[mike91]

10 games left for Essendon. 9 in Melbourne......in a row. Amazing hey

 

[Righteo]

Yeah true. I didn't think of that..

As old as Yeo is he's at least a great competitor, something that LDU just isn't. Not just a FIGJAM but a lazy one. With how young North are another Cunnington-ish figure might be a good fit to provide some guidance and grit. Shiels aint it.

You can book a package or individually.

Agreed. Yeo's a pretty intense dude and will drive some standards at least. Plus his ability to win a contest will be an upgrade from Tom Powell who I think is a decent kid.

Wouldn't mind having Paul Curtis in our side as a small forward...

 

[Wilksyy]

But yeah what the hell has happened to Melbourne? Look like crabs.

Booked the tour on the afternoon of the Pies Carlton game

Can’t wait

About 10 year since I did the tour, it's still a great memory.

I did both on the eve of our GF 2013.
I was really shocked at how bad the ground surface was walking around on it.
The Shane Warne hologram thingy is truly amazing.

That would have been awesome
I was in the Gili Islands that day on a months surfing trip through Indo , my mum and brother went .
I still kinda regret not going

Can we blame the surface conditions for Fyfes bad kicking ?

Nah, the conditions were terrible that day with the wind swirling around. Our lack of familiarity with the ground and the weather conditions was a major factor. Plus the nerves.
