Game Day Round 9 v. Carlton @ MCG - Thursday, 7.30PM

[Crimson Azure]

I know it’s a insane idea, but imagine if we decided to score in the first?

 

[Charlie_s123]

Tracc played a great game but really poor last disposal, needed to be more aware and at least get us in a position to score a point

 

[Topkent]

You know what expected scores are going to say…

Hopefully a graph of a the giant dick we sucked most of the night

Huh I'm allowed to write this. Interesting

 

[Crimson Azure]

Yep, you just know Goody thinks we are on the right track and just got unlucky. Roll on similar results again in finals.

You have no idea of the learnings we will get from this.

 

[420]

Fairly over losing to these dickheads by under a kick, fmd

You know what expected scores are going to say…

The kings of winning expected scores and losing. Expected scores lose meaning with this club.

 

[Charlie_s123]

Never mind, this is more piss weak than the club

We put ourselves in a winning position after a really poor start. Far more than I can say for most of the last 2 decades of watching Melbourne.

 

[Proper Gander]

Think of the opportunities that await

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

You have no idea of the learnings we will get from this.

The learning will be we should have held them to less than 70 points and then we would have won. Need more contest and defence.

 

[Charlie_s123]

No we weren't. It was a bad call but we had plenty of soft ones go our way. We were vastly out played in the first.

Let's not blame umps.

And we vastly outplayed them in the last ... I'm not saying it's all them but it was a controversial and very costly decision

 

[Topkent]

Think of the opportunities that await

So many you dick head!

I’m with you. All time dreadful in the first and nearly got there. I’ve felt worse

 

[Daemon]

You have no idea of the learnings we will get from this.

At this point I feel the club had collective amnesia.

 

[Proper Gander]

So many you dick head!

I’m regretting this now

 

[netslave]

you can throw any umpire talk out the window when you have a scoreless first quarter, we only have ourselves to blame.

 

[Daemon]

Going to bed grumpy and still got work tomorrow.

**** Thursday night footy and **** MFC.

FoxFooty on the money. Where was the urgency for the rest of the game? We keep having these surges in games we've already lost.

He backed himself to break the tackle, got no problem him backing himself in that moment.

With that many people around him at that time in the game I'd prefer he'd back himself to get the ball forward towards goal at all costs

I await the 2024 expected premiership with much anticipation.

This year? When?

 

[Topkent]

Melbourne or Brisbane which was the best triple premiership

I've said it before but I think it's part of our strategy. We rope a dope and attack when the oppo are out on their legs. It's why we often kick back in the last 5v minutes and come home like we did today

 

[Lampers]

I reckon he decided to take it all on his shoulders and I can’t fault him for that.

It didn’t work. But he was hot. Kicked 5, could’ve had 6 or 7. I don’t know who else I would’ve wanted with ball in hand 40 out in traffic.
