Analysis Death-Riding Melbourne 2018 (now with poll)

[earlsta]

They’ll still beat Geelong imo.

 

[Big Crow]

Longest premiership drought has me worried - are they the next AFL project team?

 

[Elite Crow]

Lever on Hawkins will be interesting

 

[WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot]

Lever on Hawkins will be interesting

And by that you mean hilarious. Lever's only chance is if he can play off him and spoil at the last second. In a one-on-one wrestle he's not going to have a good time.

McDonald will play on Hawkins

Oscar?

 

[FR0GGY]

McDonald will play on Hawkins

Hawkins looks like he’s no stranger to McDonald’s should, cope fine

Almost half way through the 2nd qtr v Geelong and Lever has been beaten in several 1 on 1 contests....

Do you think the Goody is looking at the list management team yet?

I feel so dirty.
No Dflog makes it easier.

' it usually takes a few games for people to settle into systems so we certainly see Jake as being part of our team for a long time and he will be a valuable asset , not only to our leadership group , but our playing group'

'He's a quality individual, full of leadership and integrity'

 

[crows dude]

Lever has been terrible. That will happen now Talia and Hartigan not with him.

 

[conVINCEd]

How the hell was that not holding the ball against Hunt? The little things make such a difference.

 

[Gets!]

Lever a spud.

 

[Squiba]

Great tackle

 

[Squiba]

Am I genuinely seeing Hogan on the ball?!

 

[GrommoT]

 

[footy4ever]

Mwaaaw, bad luck Melbourne.

 

[Squiba]

Would've been better if Lever had snuck forward and missed it, instead of Gawn. But wow. Imagine if that was a final

EAD lever ya flog, sucked in Melbourne! I hate Geelong but god do we need Melbourne to finish as low as possible, we desperately need elite talent on the list

 

[Thetrader15]

Gee, only 10 touches Jake - It's a bit harder in a crap team hey!

Still, Mum will be able to cook you a nice meal tonight

Melbourne just aren’t a good ‘team’. Bringing in players of character quality like Lever isn’t going to help.

Melbourne used to be my second team. Overjoyed at their loss today. Lever sucked. Happy days

Not my second team, but really enjoyed watching them early last season. Was barracking for them in most games. But now of course I am death riding them. Don't think they will finish very low though. Can see them sneaking into the 8 if they have a good run with injuries. Gawn may have dropped the game, but his early form is ominous.
