    I prefer the Bombres lose.

      Every day of every week but I don't mind either way. At least if Melbourne lose it might give those who have been pumping them up for the last couple of years cause to stop and think properly about what sort of club and team Melbourne are.

      The problem is that if Melbourne have another shit year then the AFL will again fall over themselves to make things up to them by making it simple for them to get a couple more players from other clubs. Again they wont be the type of player Melbourne need (for instance, they didn't need a May type) but City Hall will do it anyway. Anything for the Dees is the mantra at the moment.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        Heard on the Fox Footy Show "On the Couch" that May rocked up at Melbourne out of condition and came last in the time trials. Great pick up.

          I think that they are going to really regret effectively swapping Jesse Hogan for Steven May. Hogan might have some problems at the moment but lots of young blokes have had mental demons and overcome them. There is no cure for being an arrogant turd like May.

            I love it when 2 teams I hate play each other, because it means I'm happy when 1 loses either way.
            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                Ditto.
                I suspect Gawn destroys Bellcho who I simply don't rate very highly. Gawn is back.

                  Could end up a nil all draw.

                    Wouldn’t that be awesome. Both teams suck it up so bad and neither can get the job done and split the points. I’d like to see the last 10 minutes spent with both teams locked on the same score and just a montage of calamitous moments that syncs beautifully with Benny Hill music.

                    If there can only be one loser it has to be the Bombers for me. They should have ripped that club from the face of the earth when they had the chance.
