Kennedy is pissed. He such a rock but forced to go for some desperate plays at the end resulting in some mistakes

Some rubbish defence tonight and still insipid at maintaining pressure when attacking, we have no idea on the last.

In saying that we we're gutsy, there's a hell of a lot of upside to come.

A lot to take out of that loss. Few sliding doors moments and it could have been very different. I think we are in with a chance this year.

Melbourne simply too good tonight but we stayed with them for most of the game. There’s a lot to be optimistic about, Melbourne needed to dig deep into their box of tricks to put our blokes away, they also benefited from some silly penalties from our blokes, some poor refereeing, us losing Finucane and some good luck for them to see us off.

We will be back and I CANNOT wait for the return match, we can beat these blokes with a bit more fine tuning.

We showed we can be competition heavyweights this year with a bit more work.

Easily match of the year so far.

24-18 with 15 or so to go before it fell apart. Tough result, but plenty of positives.

Well we wanted to know where we stand in the comp. Things we have learnt:

1. Still give away cheap penalties and ball
2. One on one defence still needs work
3. Need to convert more line breaks into tries
4. Goal kicking is a concern
5. Still susceptible to soft tries on our line.

In saying all that we probably beat 12 other teams tonight.

Listening on the radio, we just let them off the hook with stupid penalties. Gifting them filed position. Didn’t defend errors and were poor after our scoring sets.

Lessons learnt, move on!

I don’t think he will complain at all, we seem to have a truce with Melbourne at the moment
I hope Fitz doesn't mention the refs... put it back on the players
