C'mon. Gawn towelled up ROB, Oliver had a career best game, and Petracca was awesome. Melbourne played great and still lost to last years wooden spooners. Serious pretenders. Be lucky to play finals.

Enjoy the gift mate
Gift? Go back and watch the reply - Spargo touched it last - that's why Jackson - who was clearly unsighted - was the only Melbourne player that appealled for the free.Enjoy the gift mate
Did you just say Jackson was unsighted?Gift? Go back and watch the reply - Spargo touched it last - that's why Jackson - who was clearly unsighted - was the only Melbourne player that appealled for the free.
No. I meant he couldn't have seen Spargo touched the handball - that kind of unsighted.Did you just say Jackson was unsighted?
He killed it once again
did you cop the west coast over Adelaide over Demons therefore they are better horse s**t message as well. cant stand the campaigners instantly got 10+ messages from eagle supporters. would want to be a 1.75l bottle of beam. And yeah I said to a mate it's the game to lose with dogs and lions coming up to give us a week to work on what's not working. now we can reset and give dogs and lions a shake b4 our 2 byesAdelaide played pretty bloody well to be fair. Maybe we let them . Not overly concerned. It’s very hard to stay up for 10 weeks . Defending which is clearly our strength was horrible today. In the long run losing this game by a point will be better for usthan winning by a point.
Richmond 2017 lost to a sh*t freo at the G at about the same stage of the year.
Good :
Oliver was amazing
Brought a bottle of beam this morning (might not make it through the night)
Langdon
Bad :
Most of the team
Ugly
The last 8 minutes
Living in WA and having to deal with Eagle supporters. If you ever think a club has worse supporters I’m sorry you’re wrong

10 messages and Facebook posts would of been great. It’s more like 100 and still going. I’ve copped everything you can imagine haha. Wouldn’t mind a GWS win tomorrow at all. Just a 1.25 L bottle. Probably not enough .
Take your win back to your own board. Celebrate there. Now isn’t the time for your deconstruction. Don’t post here again tonight or it will be an infringement. ThanksGift?

I said at the start of the year that we're short by 1 top tier mid and I stand by it. Viney out hurts us remarkably and he's not close to elite. Our midfield just drops off too much from Oliver and Petracca.
Good: Oliver
Bad:
We are slowing up every week. Tonight's loss is not a wake up call (contrary to what I read), we are currently feeling the effects of the demanding way we have played so far.
4 crucial points wasted tonight, people drinking the 9-1 bathwater - it means nothing. We will soon be 9-2 and the second half of the season will be a different proposition to the first.
2nd tier players starting to drop off a bit.
Gawn, did some good things but boy he did some poor things. Every now and again needs to put the craft-work and low percentage marks away and just punch it. Last 30sec of the game wtf was he thinking.
Goodwin is not an innovator on game day. The days of our 8 goal wins are mostly behind us. In the second half of the year we're going to have a lot of armwrestles like tonight. This is where he'll earn his money. We can't afford to just play the same predictable way. Overall strategy has been succesfull so far but in game tactics lacking.
Ugly: Dogs next week under the roof. A matter of how much we lose by.

It's not just tonight but the last month mate that I'm addressing. Big picture.Wow, I didn't watch the game but jeez this seems like a massive overreaction.
You're welcome to.I disagree.

Even if it is the umps won't pay it!
I realise I'm coming across as a bit of debbie downer, that's certainly not the intention. I'm not overreacting to 1 game either.Our back line will keep us in games against anyone. Not going to lose sleep over the Dogs and Brisbane.
That's a little harsh. I thought a joke at the expense of umpires would be well received to any teams board. I apologise if I offended any Melbourne supporters that like the umps.Why have an account for two years barely post then go out like this? Absolute pelican you are.

However, our backline has been the sheep's back and we're riding it more and more as the season goes on. Tonight more than ever reminds us that defence comes from a whole team effort not just the back 6. As good as that back 6 has been.
Prior to this game the most we've conceded was 73. It was 95 tonight. We're slowing up. It was inevitable and many of our players have played above themselves.
9-1 is a great position to be in but it will come undone if we don't improve in some aspects.
1 good thing is (similar to Port) we are no longer in the spotlight.
