Don't ride Melbourne off, they had a late preseason due to play deep into the finals and a lot of the players had preseason injuries and have only started to get back on the park and build their fitness.

It will take them 4 weeks to catch up to their required fitness, that's why I wasn't overly impress with Port Power R1 win against them as proven by how competition Carlton (who lost the key forward and 2nd most important player by half time) played today.

Hope our coaching panel have stayed up late tonight and watched how WC bring the ball back in after a point.

Couple of times they have gone bang down the middle for a f50 entry, not like our short chip kicks to the right.

Why does that only affect Melbourne and not the two clubs that played the week after?

They're 0-2 and already about 120 points off the mark percentage wise.

I know it's only round 2, but I think they're done.

Geelong are a much better team than Melbourne and tonight's result showed that, was the easiest game to predict this round. This year is their final chance with Selwood, Ablett jr, etc to contend for a premiership. I had them in my top 4 at the start of the season.

Commentators mentioned Melbourne had the most preseason surgeries of any AFL club, Richmond played Collingwood who both had late starts and West Coast has a huge home ground advantage.

Only 3rd rd but there are some crucial clashes next week:
Crows v Geelong- we lose that and top 4 very difficult and unlikely
Dees v Essendon - loser won’t make finals
GWS v Richmond, Tigers lose that and top 4 starts to get tough
Pies v West Coast - both will be fine but huge clash
Carlton v Sydney- Carlton lose and lock for bottom 4, swans lose and can kiss any chance for finals goodbye

I think the ladder is going to be close this year, expect more unexpected results. Melbourne vs Essendon is a hard one to predict.

Says more about how GWS isn't defending that and giving the opportunity for the kicker to see it, mind you the dimension is wide at Optus.
 
The pear posters seem to think it was them who broke Melbourne rather than realizing they beat up on a currently very average team.

Like last season (and the season before that), the puffers will probably be getting a reality check in round 3 when they actually play a good performing side. They got Brisbane at the Gabba next week.

As for us, going to be tough against Geelong - need to be at our best!

Melbourne play Essendon next week. For the loser the season is shot. Amazing really as I had both teams in the 8.
 
The dees had 73 inside 50s for 46 points. That is amazing.

When you look at their forward line you wonder why we rated them so highly. Probably a bottom 6 forward line, maybe even bottom 4.
