We've won 4 of our last (approx 18) games

WCE win, L, L, L, North win, L (etc, etc) WCE win, North win.

Can we play WCE or North again next week?

Essendon should run away with it in the last.

Try working out this push rule?
How is the Darcy Moore push not an offence?
It's bloody ridiculous!

Disappointing to lose that, we had our chances, and so did Essendon. At least that was almost watchable this time around, that's from.my point of view and keep in mind I'm coming from a pretty low bar here between these guys and the legs.

Ryan, what are you doing, mate? Just hold the bloody thing.

There were positives, Hewett back into the side and played his best game for us so far. I like what I see from Davis as well, I'd like to see more of Gross rather than the sub at the moment. Graham and Baker have slotted in well and gave us something in the middle, but honestly anything was going to be an improvement.

Our decision not to play Allen was an odd one, and I would suggest it's more than just managed, and he's carrying an injury, but unfortunately, he normally is.

Maybe, just maybe, thinking one man can fix a club isn't the answer.

Defensively they were a rabble yesterday.

They need to look at player development, who has improved since coming into the team?

Xerri for sure, anyone else?

Freo lose this the pressure surely will start to mount on Longmuir, makes some very strange calls

Have to wonder when your best 2 possession winners and ball carriers in Brayshaw and Serong have spent less than 3/4 of the game time on the field (for 20 possessions each mind you) where others are up around 90%

Pickett for Melbourne, 20 possessions, 5 goals, 90% game time
