Yeah, its quite clear now that they dont want to win. A game we needed to win to keep us in touch with the top four and effectively keep our season alive, but we failed. I'll keep going to games, but its quite obvious we won't get far at all.

Obviously has you confused with a player. They're the people that sort of thing should be directed at.
Yeah I think so. I mean, I went to the match, I stayed till the end, and I intend to go to every other Melbourne match for the year. How weak of me. Maybe I should pull on a jumper and get on the field, god knows I would probably do a better job than half of them last night.

Not just yet. I am extremely worried about the side, but I have some faith left. Not much, especially when you look at how we are playing and our draw, but I'm holding on to the hope that we can somehow turn it around.

However, if we get flogged next week at Subiaco without a whimper, then it's gone. And that's so terribly disappointing to say!

I'm with you. Lose to Freo and I'll say this is yet another letdown for the supporters. I'll still go to all the games (I don't care who we lose to as long as we don't lose to Essendon in Round 22. I have a pack of them that I know who are all thinking they'll roll us and it can't happen).

Stuff that we'll smash freo and win the flag!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hehehe your good humour made my day

honestly we can beat freo if we play our best. i rate our best above theirs. pavlich is they key like he normally is with them. i would read to much into their game today. 9 goals, while a fine effort vs carlton is like 5 vs another team.

For what it's worth I think we're shot for this season. We may limp into the 8 but we've been doing that for years. If we had hung onto 2nd it'd be a whole new ball game 3 home finals & hey presto ya premiers, but now at best we're due for a gallant interstate finals defeat.

We have something here to build on though never lose sight of that.

Umpires.. Pff.. Maybe if our players showed an ounce of discipline and didn't try to walk through tackles like millionares we wouldn't have given so many frees away?

Put it this way:

we are palaying such sh*t footy. If we beat adelaide or geelong and then beat the upcoming bulldogs and then essendon we are gonna be in alright form. hence, if we make the 8 we are hopefully gonna do well.

Realistically: were not gonna even make the 8, but theres a reason at the end of round 16 freo had better odds for the flag than richmond even tohugh they were 2 games below.. coz if they did make the finals they would ahve to be in stellar form..
