If there's one thing we like to be on the Melbourne board, it's silly. :laughv1: But if there's another thing we appreciate, it's transparency. 🪟 And to be transparent, the "schedule thread" option is NO LONGER AVAILABLE. :crossmark: And that's bad, because it means we can't schedule these game day threads for midnight, feebly keeping up the pretence that we're sitting up patiently for the clock to tick over to post the thread on the actual day of the game.

Instead, I'm posting this today - that's Saturday - before the game tomorrow - that's Sunday. And I'm really, really sorry about it.

Anyway, we play Euro-Yroke this weekend in an ABSOLUTE BLOCKBUSTER. It's (at time of writing) 8th v. 14th. It's Goody v. Ross. It's the DEMONS v. the SAINTS. What could possibly be better? :sneaky:

We get Langdon back after attending a wedding last week. Tomlinson ostensibly replaces Lever, and van Rooyen ostensibly replaces Brown. Howes omitted is a bit of an odd one to me - Howes has been pretty good to my eye. But instead, in comes Hunter - a bit of a curious selection IMO given VFL form, but we'll see how we go! Billings goes out against ex-team Euro-Yroke.

The Saints have omitted three, and brought back Stocker, Ross, and Higgins.

We've collectively won three games out of the last 10, and that includes victories against North Melbourne (for Euro-Yroke) and Richmond (for us). Pretty grim reading for both sides.

My tip?

Narrm 49 - 63 Euro-Yroke. 🥳

The first quarter scoring shots graph sums up why we're so inaccurate. Can't kick everything from 45-50 metres out or hemmed in on the boundary line and expect accuracy. We don't get high quality scoring shots.

I don't know whether our forwards lead to the pocket or it's a problem with our system, but you're right, you'd be a less than 50% chance from some of those angles, no wonder we're 5.9.
 
Just atrocious, our system is broken, there's just no way you turn that around in a season.
Didnt look like a "MeLbOuRnE gAmE" at 1/4 time, needed to let the Saints catch up and turn it into a coin flip at 3/4 time. Goody = happy.
