    I get the shakes every time Clarke goes anywhere near the ball. Does not add any value to the team.

    Great potential. Will be even better when he gets stronger. Not much over 70kg at the moment I reckon.

    Maybe it's Melbourne's errors, but this looks like a very good effort by our blokes, especially the youngsters. Much more run and pass than we had last week. And the service into the attacking 50 is very well executed on the whole.
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

    Yes, I can live with just Campbell and Gulden, plus a later pick.

    Fantastic.

    Wicks is the defensive forward we’ve been desperate for. Dawson and Blakey superb. McLean presents and crashes in. Florent better. Even Reid managed some grabs.

    And yes, McInerney - he looks like he’s starting to work out where to run to use his pace and workrate to advantage. Plus that’s a nice set shot routine.

    Though he seems to have added a bit more muscle, lately. Melican also seems a fair bit fitter, than what he was a month or so ago.

    Melbourne_Blood called it - McInerney has stood up and announced himself.

    He was playing pretty well before the goals too.

    Please continue the intensity Bloods - I need a cheer up being in Melbourne

    Half time inside 50 entries now 20-21 and a 28pt lead. Great use of the wind!

    Mark by Reid 45 out near the boundary. Hand pass to Dawson and the kick just missed.

    This is the kind of performance we can expect from a young side - good patches showing their potential, combined with some shockers like the Fremantle game.

    Sydney being Melbourne's "bogey side" got a mention during the second quarter on the ABC commentary. Seasons this century when we've not beaten Melbourne: 2011 (draw, 1 game away), 2010 (1 game away), 2001 (2 games). Our record against Melbourne this century: 19W, 1D, 7L.

    Excellent quarter, not only did we keep Melbourne goal less, but we also looked crisp in attack. Nice seeing Blakey and Dawson get plenty of the ball: both look very dangerous. McInerney might have earned himself a new contract. Hoping for a Papley bag in the second half.

    Think he's fine. May have been balls landing on ball, in a tackle?

    Wow thats a bloody good record. Even though Melbourne have mostly been crap but they did play in a Grand Final I watched in NYC at about 4AM.
