Round 13 - the stuck in traffic games.

Washing my mouth out as I type this 'coz it's leaving a foul taste even thinking about it. Goin o.k. this year Colonwood. Eddie gone, Figgy gone, with the Fly n Leppa now running the circus. You'd think there would be a bit of unco happening before they got themselves properly organised. But.

So far this year they've beat St Kiddenme, the Moggies, Frockers, Carlscum, Smelbourne n run Brisvegas to 7 points at the Gabba. That's some fairly awesome performances against the top half of the ladder n miles better than anything we've managed so far. Can only hope Colonwood have shot their load early this year, because when the bastards are up n about they're showing plenty.

Yeah it feels horrible to say it, but they are playing some really good, high pressure footy. Very much a brand that will work well in finals.

Now, I'm off to punch myself in the head repeatedly.

2 losses against what are likely top 4 teams, that looked like a bit of a road bump, but losing another and to Collingwood who are getting better but aren't great, I would be a bit more worried if I was Melbourne.

They look like they may have lost the plot, but remain a quality team. We'll see what happens from here. I don't think the easy draw early in the season did them any favours, made winning feel too easy.

Easy run home for them as well just looking.
 
Can't believe the reaction over Melb.

They won 17 in a row? A flag by 12 goals? And now they are duds?

Injuries stop anyone. 10-3 isn't anythng to be worried about.

They are very similar to our profile, 5-6 A graders and a bunch of role players. I see guys like Neal-Bullen getting bagged, he's been one of the core role players.

Not saying it will happen, but they are playing very poorly. Pressure this year is only better than Essendon. They have a tough run till the end of the year, they are going to want to get their mojo back and get it back quickly. There are no easy games for them for the rest of the year.

Whipping boy.
 
Gone. Get ready for a typical Melbourne implosion. They will start eating each other.
It's great seeing Viney back to his turn over best again.
Shouldve gone to Geelong
