Melbourne are the real deal.
They were fightying for a top 4 spot so had a lot to play for...
They came to play and we matched it with them in a four quarter effort in an intense finals type game.
We backed it up for a long time against another top 4 side with just as much to play for...and in fact dominated them entirely for a quarter.
Maybe we should be cautious, but at the same time don't dismiss totally the quality of the effort if not the execution of those last two games.
I agree. Those two games showed the progress as well as the work yet to be done. Basically 2 finals in a row with plenty of effort and good fight and extremely close to winning both.
