Round 12 - the Datsun 120Y games.

That Hayward kid is a star.

Some quality kids The Swans
Of course they do. Swans academy zone serves up first round quality kids near every year for Sydney.

Anyway, seven goals last round and nine goals this round. Melbourne’s got a scoring problem.
 
I'm pretty sure he isn't aware that we had 7-8 players out over that month and once they came back game over, we won the next 12 inc the premiership.
Exactly. Pretty sure we made seven changes in the St Kilda game after the bye which was the start of our run. Melbourne fielding a near full strength side minus May right now.

Almost as pathetic as their crowd. Where are the supporters of the oldest football club in the world? Snow hasn't come yet has it?
Yep bumper June so far, already half a metre of snow at Mt Buller.

Talk all year has been about the huge depth the Dees have. No idea where the media got this from, it was never tested last year. Now we are seeing their depth and its crap. Mitch fricking Brown :rotfl2:rotfl2

Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t rate the swans a top 4 team.
Melbourne on the slide.
Beaten Cats and Demons, 4 goal loss to Brisbane, 15 point loss to Blues, so they're thereabouts. Only play 3 more games against current top 8 sides, Saints twice and Fremantle. Looking in good position to snag a top 4 spot.

Demons had a very soft draw in the first half of the season and I don't think they were that impressive despite winning the first 8 games. Have lost the last 2 against top 8 sides and will need to still play Dockers, Cats, Lions twice and Blues. They don't play any of the current bottom 4 teams. Ladder is tightening right up.

But but, the media called them the "All conquering Demons"

Shows how brittle this Melbourne team is.

Steven May gets injured and their defense looks awful. They had a ridiculously fit list last year and it was always a question of them, if they were to lose 1 or 2 of their key players. Looks like they only need to lose 1 to fall apart.
The dynasty lasted 5 months of football.
I know it's not over but I have crowed from the start they are two injuries away from being found out.
Lo and behold.
GAGF dee's.

The clown in the forward line is shocking.
If it's good enough for the media to bag Cox, it's good enough to bag Ben Brown.
Tomilson what a potato. And they were talking up his return.
I said it last week, May is Melbourne's most important player, if I was playing them I would have a player like Townsend tag him.
Lever is ordinary as a one on one defender.
