idiot looks like a complete deadsh*t.

Just a dumb campaigner

 

[freo84]

Melbourne should belt them around the ball..should.

 

[MadMundy]

Should be at least a 30 point win.

 

[gaskin]

Not too sure what Warner was thinking with that haircut.

 

[Taylor]

This ugly game needed a bit of line breaking run and carry like that

 

[Yeti]

Logan McDonald starting red hot. Four 1st Round picks Kornes said wasn't it?

 

[FUS_RO_DAH]

God the SCG is a shit ground.

 

[gaskin]

This supposed midfield dominance Melbourne are supposed to have is not showing. Sydney are clearly the dominant team in this quarter.

Definitely not doing me, Polo342 and Mrs Mac herself, Docker82 any favours

This board complain about Hughes and Banfield running around for us but then I see Josh Schache

getting a game for Melbourne.

Every team has them guys.

 

[heypenny]

I'm not sure what others see in McDonald. He's going to be a solid second forward, but he's not a game changer, and not worth a 1st round pick, let alone multiple first rounders.

I'm not sure Treacy is the answer either. But I think we're better off using our first rounders elsewhere.

Delivery into the 50 outside of that pass to Heeney from Blakey has been almost as poor as I’ve seen Freo do it. Perhaps they’re just preparing Logan McDonald for us.

In all seriousness it’s been one quarter. He’ll still probably kick his 1-2 this game - when he’s not playing on May and Lever it’ll be more.

 

[Shoeless Joe]

3 minutes into the season and I'm scratching my head over the umpiring already

Maybe I have this rule wrong..Petraca tackled by 2 opponents ...tried to hand pass but couldn't get his arms free...tries to kick but misses the ball

Why the F..... is that not incorrect disposal

Happens so often I'm sure they have changed the rule and I missed the mem0..

Dropping the ball doesn't exist anymore for some reason.

Watching this game makes me feel better about how Freo will do this year

Couldn't agree more, it's been terrible. I'd fancy our chances in this game against either team. Melbourne's attack is as limp as a wet noodle without Kosi

 

[heypenny]

I didn't see a finger clearly move for that goal to be overturned. It must be obvious and clear.

[largebus]

Round 0 is a good name, the winner of this game should get 0 premiership points for this tripe.

 

[Kapow!!!]

...did the AFL forget about the dew factor in early March - April in the northern states night games when they scheduled round 0?

If this was supposed to be a spectacle to convert the northern states into the game, I'm not sure it's going to do it. I'm sorry, but the first match of the season must be Richmond v Blues at the MCG.

 

[mike91]

Sadly not watching the game, but I see Melbourne are losing, have only kicked one goal and the tall forwards have done zilch

As if this wasn't guaranteed to happen. Melbourne aren't even remotely a top 4 threat, they'll get exposed this season. Horrendous forward line, their only semi decent tall forward in Smith is long gone and their entries inside 50 are deplorable.
