Two of Melbourne’s high profile recruits Stephen May and Jake Lever are playing great football. May arrived in 2019, Lever in 2018. Can anyone remember the sort of reviews they were getting from the Melbourne faithful after 10 games??

There was some article written by Bob Murphy which i glanced at talking about our last game.
I say glanced at because he was lashing out because we played Casboult in defence. Saying it didn't work and why would we do it because he has never played there before.
....and thats where he lost me.
No, not because i suggested we do exactly that leading up to the game, but because he said Casboult has never played there before.
Pretty sure he spent at a season or so in defence and played pretty bloody well during that time. It was simply because all our key forwards got injured that we had no choice but to play him back up forward....and he played pretty well there too.
So i'm very wary of some of these football 'experts' who are obligated to write 'something' to justify their existance, rather than writing something when there is actually something worth saying.
Sorry Bob....you should be better.

Fans have to surrendered the idea that these "AFL Experts" watch games like we do!
Most probably write articles like that off reading one line in a summary.

Imagine the fun they could have if they swapped jumpers before the game.....
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?
