      Melbourne had a "play the kids " policy and now are flogging us and challenging teams like Collingwood.
      I think they are a good team with a good coach and we underrated them. Not soo bad to lose to them!

        Yep and when they eventually get their best 22 on the park watch out.

          No need to linger, there is another game next week and with North and Adelaide losing it looks like we will play finals this year which will be a nice way to say good bye to both Kirk and Roos who have done so much for this club, while allowing blokes like Smith, Hannaberry, White, Merideth, Jetta etc to get a chance to play in a final.

          We still need at least 1 more win to play finals this year IMO.....where is it going to come from? Brisbane in round 22 will be tough, they will be keen to go out on a high note.

            Are you confusing them with the Eagles in the old Chick n' Cuz days?

              I was totally depressed yesterday afternoon. A glass (or two) of red and watching the TDF last night helped a bit. I always thought this Melbourne game was a danger game for us. Hate going in as favourite especially when playing a Melbourne based team at the "G". Demons were on fire, helped by some early umpiring decisions (don't get me started there!) and when sides get on a roll like that and they run, tackle, chase hard....well, they're impossible to stop. I felt for our boys, but there's some games left this season, and let's hope we can acquit ourselves a bit better. Perhaps going in as the underdog will help.

                You two must have been salivating during that game at how dreadfully we were playing, it's been a few weeks now since either of you have been able to stick the knife in and turn it so completely.

                    Melbourne had no choice but to play the kids, they were useless. Our list is nothing like theirs was and I personally don't want a couple of wooden spoons.

                      That is one massive bonus. Turn it over constantly those two.

                          A few positive comments about Bevan in this thread.

                          Dont know why? May be I accidently watched a previous Melb/Swans game?

                          From what I saw, he made Green look like a super star, instead of the 'good' player that he is.
