2022 R18 Sun - Melbourne 16-20 Canberra @ AAMI

There are at least 10 other teams going much worse than Melbourne but it is concerning times for them

Since they lost their CEO in Dave Donaghy (something they were prepared to go to court over), they've made some very questionable decisions and even off-field their standards have lowered. The pre-season drug shit, the inability to retain key forwards (I get losing one or two but it's nearly an entire pack)

The Melbourne of old after losing 2 in a row would come out and put on 50, I didn't even fathom the idea of them losing a 3rd in a row, Melbourne fans would be nervous heading into next season

What rule is that? Not being snarky, legit question. You’re allowed to take out a chaser as long as it’s just by swaying?

Manu he ran right at him

Mare he ran right at him

Hard to stay 100% still from the moment someone kicks a ball. I sometimes think they are too quick to give those penalties and we have seen them called. This time Canberra just came up aces.

Papa can't disappear mate

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Can't see us losing again this year tbh, Raiders 57, Storm 53.

Got the score slightly wrong but picked the winner and margin. Well done you magnificent bald lesbian bastard.

Turns out Savage made the game winning tackle on Hughes. How bout that @bileduct @baselinepanther

Blaza f**k the Storm..lol

I agree, they knocked us out of many a final, think the only time we beat them in a final is when we won the 2006 premiership

I just think the wheels are falling off at Melbourne, I have held a theory that the Dolphins whilst being based as close to Brisbane as any other team will actually attract a bigger rivalry with Melbourne. Melbourne's feeder team is the Sunny Coast Falcons (which is basically right in the heart of where the Dolphins will be looking to get setup) and certainly the way the Dolphins have recruited.. they've made it known where they would like to get their players from

 

[baselinepanther]

well that last call was the first time the raiders have got a call go their way all season
they've been rodgerd pretty efficiently by the refs all year & the last 3 in fact

While the Storm have been getting every 50/50 call for 20 years
so

F you storm

ill take my humble pie with ice cream please

 

[no name]

From Western Sydney mate know the rules well. Lived in Melbourne for 6 years and can't believe so many people are addicted to that rubbish.
100% correct call but I'm still allowed to act like an idiot about it as everyone else does on here?

Ah, you were in skeepe mode? We all do that now and then. Play on

One I think, one Melbourne based player, he was a winger from memory

 

[GongPanther]

Raiders are specials. Will tear Melbourne a new one provided the right side turns up. Can by 34-18.

Nearly got the score.

It's usually 14 or 15.

Not Papa's fault his ass covers 2m of the defensive line on it's own.

 

[Pugzley]
