Dissapointing loss against the team who we can't beat.
Smells very much like last year.

Need to restructure our midfield for the 2nd half of the year.

I'll tell you where we won't be going. A top 4 position at the end of the year.

We played a good 2nd quarter and played some parts well in the 3rd but that was it! We sucked, plain and simple. With a couple of players like Burns, Shaw, Stanley and a few others playing well

no we dont.with Clement,Rhyce and harry out we were missing our usual drive from half-back so our mid-field has to work harder.youngsters are a bit tired as well

we be will ok
 
Holland is a chaser, not a winner.
BJ is good around the ground, but won't win you clearances in the middle.

Put Thomas and Peddlebury in there.

Guys, yes we got done. But we were very very undermanned losing Reece Shaw before the game and then Harry O. We had to cover those losses and we couldnt do it, we had no backman. The umps didnt help...

Also when Wakelyn gets a game you know we are in trouble from the beginning.

i expect us to bounce back against the Swans..
 
Very disappointing today even with injury's we are a better side then that. Mistakes cost us again and even though he has been OK this year Obree has to go. Play younger kids a few times today he just didn't do the hard things like run with players when he had to. He will come out and get 30 Pos next week but i don't think he will take us to the next level.

Young guys made mistakes today but that doesnt worry me its the older guys who make basic mistakes that cost us all the time.
 
The break has come at a good time for us. Our backline is decimated on the injury front at the moment with Clement, Presti, R. Shaw out, H. Shaw not 100% and losing Harry early only compounded the problem. Those 5 are in our top 6 starting defenders each week.

We'll get Clement, Rhyce, maybe Presti back and Heath will be better for the rest. We'll be fresh against the Swans and can hopefully bounce back to make an assault on the top 4 in the second half of the year.

Far from panic stations yet.

Knee jerk reaction.

We have quite a few players coming back in. Today wasn't "that" bad. We lost a game and got beaten because our forward line was held well.

Still a long way to go to either be writing them off or building them up.
 
We did well to get close under the circumstances: Presti, Clement out, then Harry injured, Robbo (Harry's opponent) kicks 7 and umpires snorting crack.
 
no clement, no harry, no presti, umpires were bribed, its all uphill from here

All you soft bastards whining about the umpires. You get it easy all the time and its not like we got off easy.

What about that McLean free kick? and 50? Gave you a goal in the most important part of the game.

Quit your whining, your an overrated team and wont make it anywhere this year
 
Melbourne only kicked 13 against the Williamstown Backline and 7 of those were after quarter time.

perhaps we need to look at why our forward lineonly managed 11.

get a bed then talk to me, ****ing blind melbourne supporter, if you werent biased like shit you would know the umpires sucked

lets all pull the forwards arm out of its sockets, lets throw the ball away when getting tackled and get away with it, lets punch people in the face and get away with it, get a clue you useless bogan

Junk time is only the most important part of the game in SuperCoach, tool.

OMG the hole world has caved in. Yes we will make top 4 and didnt a number of top 8 teams lose this weekend so lets see no top 4 for Hawthorn, Westcoast either. Get real it just didnt happen for us today due to a number of bad luck sittuations. Sittuation 1 Harry getting busted, sittuation 2 hitting the ball out of a pack in the middle of the ground and getting it called deliberate and the bloody touch someone in the back rule is pissing me offfffffffff
 
we're not going to go 22-0, no need for panic stations.

Melbourne will beat alot of good sides coming home if their list stays intact. They were considered top 4 material this year, the just pipped us and we were the side decimated by injuries.

Roll on Sydney.
 
They have been told and told and told that you can't put your hands in someones back. Why f**king do it in the first place! Play in front!

The mark to paid to Robbo in the final quarter was a disgrace! Cost us the game.

:) happy the split round is here, we need it so we can get our injuries back, the difference between this year and last year is we have key players to come in not out. I hope we do well this year but we are still a couple of years of making a grand final or winning a premiership.
