Sweetly!!!!!!

Two votes deserve two posts!!!

Sweetly!!!!!!


Doing the math, it was one coach, I’d say ours. So Bevo rated him his fourth best player which is a huge reward as we had a bunch of outstanding players.

Great recognition from Bevo, it was a massive performance from Sweet. Looked like he came in with a decent corkie/knock too, if that padding on his thigh is anything to go by.

Saints fans truly believed Ryder was their trump card going into the game and Sweet completely neutralised him.

Yeah Sweet was totally better than Jack Macrae and his 41 touches. It shows why you can’t take these things too seriously.

We often talk about Macrae being under-rated and this highlights that it is by everyone.

I think Sugar wears the padding every week.

Macrae is leading the league in possessions and now equal first in score involvements with Petracca on 83.
Doesnt get the plaudits he deserves.

Got the standard 60 seconds on both AFL 360 and On The Couch.

In fairness, St Kilda were always going to be the talking point out of that game.

That was a putrid effort from a team that has gone all in on trading and FA over the last 3 years.

Anyone else having problems watching replay of game on kayo?

I feel like Libba is our de facto vice captain.

I've been to every Melbourne game this year, I'll tell you now, Libba is 100% VC on field, his really important at getting people into position and yelling orders at team mates around stoppages.

[westdog54]

I’ve noticed they talk to each other a lot on the field

That play looked almost planned.

Their combination is phenomenal.

I loved that we seemed just as desperate for the ball in the last three minutes of the game, with literally nothing to lose, as we were in the first. That's the spirit that will get us all the way.

Yep totally agree. Bevo said we were manic which says it all.

Irritating to say the least. Each episode I settle down on the sofa expecting more. Melbourne dominates the discussion On the Couch with ex players Healy & Lyon.

Lets hope it dominates this week but not in a good light.

Did he though? I thought they won the taps by a long way. Not that it makes much difference with Libba hunting the leather around the ankles of the pack.

Taps are a useless metric on their own. I was there live and watched the replay, and while Ryder got his hands on it first and did tap it directly down to his mids at time (mostly in a stagnant, flat footed position), there was no dominance.

Compare that to the final where Ryder was just putting the ball into space for running mids, was monstering English out of the contest and grabbing it and pumping it forward, and was taking marks around the ground and forward.

Ryder destroying Sweet was my only concern going into the game.
