Meh.
Melbournes 'form' can be very much explained by plotting injuries and/or players at peak fitness along with wins.
They go hand in hand....and this comes from within the club as well.
They knew 2019 was going to be a terrible year for them before a ball was bounced in anger.
Not sure of their thoughts thus far for 2020, but i do know they have their best 22 fit and available for selection, which is probably the first time in over 12 months.
