The Love

Re: The Love

I have never seen a more focused TEAM belief than this group at the moment. They want to play for eachother, play their roles, and enjoy that winning feeling.

Re: The Love

I feel like we don't have any 'me, me, me' types - no Fritschs or Jeremy Camerons. That makes a big difference to everyone buying in to the team mentality.

It's been really nice watching the boys enjoy themselves, and makes the viewing experience a lot more enjoyable for the fans as well.

You touch on something really interesting actually, and until you posted I hadn't been able to put my finger on what I had been thinking/ feeling about the Melbourne forward line.

I've seen things from McDonald, Pickett and Fritsch over the first couple of months of the season, but also not sure if it was last week I saw it from Jackson where I've thought hang on, these guys think they're pretty damn good and might be getting ahead of themselves.

Credit to the rest of the side, I don't get that from anywhere else (albeit Oliver is a bit of a douche and Gawn attracts my chagrin because he thinks Melbourne is special because of its coffee - seriously if you want to make me cringe say that), but the forwards sometimes seem to be setting themselves up to be made fools of.

Re: The Love

The 'love' shows the belief in the team. Bevo said before the game on Sunday that "there are a few things we pride ourselves on" which I translate as all have a strong belief in the group. They really believe in our team and what we can do with everyone firing. So the love comes out for each other when standards are high and met.

Re: The Love

Sort of a slide note: Naughton has really sparked joy .

His arrival and high flying efforts are such classic, visceral examples of pure footy, the real unadulterated exciting moment of footy. I think he has really created the circus,stances for this to happen with his skillset.
