Pies for the W.
This is always the game I most want to win every year.
Getting the smirk off ossie's face is wonderful.
Keen as beanz.
Either gonna be particularly salty AF or particularly elated after this game!
No late changes
I've said it every year, but I really admire the AFL for building this special atmosphere in this game through the Big Freeze.
Both solemn and inspiring.
Missed this game the last two years because of exams, all good for today so carn the dees, although hopefully it'll be a great and close game.
Holy shower Tom McDonald ::) easiest of handpasses almost became a disaster, lucky Bugg got a foot to it!
Hamish just said Treloar rarely misses by foot.
JM? :P
Can't remember the last time there was a "too many in the square" free kick :o
Some high scores early
Shaz started very well for those that went early on him (not me :( )
A nice touch that we have gotten goals from free kicks against Howe and Dunn :P
But a good game so far!

Shaz is on the bubble this week though is he not?

Oh yep you're right man, my bad
Pendles 35+ from only the 4 touches
Getting into it more now
Taylor Adams unusually quiet

First bounce Brisbane v Adelaide - 3 weeks ago remember it well.

POD in 1 of my 10 leagues which I have sewed up anyway.
Will fall just shy of 2,000 points thanks to him though.
Jeffy keeps running back to the goal square hoping his teammates can kick 60m over the back to him. Needs to lead up at them.
I've only started watching this quarter, I assumed Pedo must be injured. Surely he's better in the ruck than Tom McDonald?
Rico I think you jinxed Scharenberg - hasn't done squat since :'(
Pendles only 10SC in the 3rd so far and Adams not even on 40
Far out this games killing me :-[
Treloar in full flight is great to watch

Unless you're JM :P
Dees should be 3-4 goals up. Burning a heap of ball going inside 50.
Spicy hot take: Treloar is pretty meh tbh, doesn't do enough hard work and doesn't win games just is flashy so gets the attention ala Ablett
Don't love Pendles but he's definitely the superior player comfortably
Classic melbourne, i told ossie at HT we'd be up at 3qt

Do not mind as a nice price drop after the byes for me to get him in.
Adams hopped off the ground, hopefully it's nothing serious
Hibberd has been MIA for ages
The pressure in this game is insane!
I rate that win better than I do in the one against Adelaide.
flowerin ecstatic! Just, so god damn proud!
And I can't help but wonder the AFL wanted Melbourne to win because of Daniher, given our umpiring preferential treatment in the last 5 mins
