FP please clarify, are you implying that religious or those searching ARE young and foolhardy?

Off topic and poorly disguised baiting.
Particularly ironic though given the thread title, as it would seem you are clearly looking for something to get your panties in a bunch over...  :-*
It's a very clear statement Jerome and not a unique concept by any means.

And now look what you've done... Kareem is now more than "implying" that you have major problems...

A bit harsh I think... but don't worry, Kareem does seem to say things like that a lot...

For the record your feelings over whether we will win or lose rarely bare any logic... hence my concern over your postings  ;)

Would anyone, in all honesty, swap our position at this stage of the season for any other club? Or our squad? Not me.

No we have a good position..And i like the squad we have formed. it looks like we are gelling well, i am a big fan of some of the players in the Victory Team though ( Ward, Thompson, Lejier and Vagas) to name a few

Yep, Melbourne have a good squad and will be one of the teams to beat.Some of the other teams have good marquees, but are a bit reliant on them. So far, apart from Huke, we are injury free. We have only just discovered our best 11, and are improving. The squad has more depth than any of the others (IMO!). Best defensive record.Proven A-league coach. Finals experience.Apart from the team and supporters no one gives us a chance, nice to not have that pressure! Nothing is ever perfect, but happy where we are at this stage. Think back a few months, it was looking a shambles.

Excellent point!
And it gets better, we have two Socceroos very slowly getting back their form & touch  ;D

Agree totally. There will always be things the team can improve (currently, I'd say that scoring goals is our biggest hinderance, although last weekend was enlightening). Still miles ahead of where we were halfway through the year, when we couldn't attack OR defend. Our defence is currently best in the League, and we are running third.

Just be glad you aren't following the Fury (bottom of the ladder) or the Scum! Or even the Roar, who are the biggest underachievers on and off the field since the A League began. We, by comparison, have been the biggest overachievers.

How well we're 'travelling' doesn't really mean squat until we become capable of winning a gf.

Which we're definitely not.  And, as I don my flame proof suit, I don't think we've ever been a gf winning team, not mentally at least.

We've beaten the Tards, should have beaten SFC, beaten GCU, Beaten Perth...
Thats the top five...
Lowers flame thrower...
But I think we all know that we are still missing a key ingredient.

From Lawries post match interview, it seems he has faith that quote "there's goals in them" referring to our strikers. Geez it'd be nice for him to get this one right.

I know I'm a lunatic, or at the very least a sad riddled addict who just never learns...
If miracle of miracles Nik could finally deliver on his potential for the second half of the season... Then we could still give it a shake.

Re Mentally... I think perhaps at times we seem to suffer from some sort of small club syndrome against some teams... especially SFC.
If so time for that to end and get some serious self belief and mongrel or we are never going to win back to back, which means no, you can't win the lot.

I think personally, this is a HUGE game for us coming up...
Beat Tards again... and anything is possible... If not...
Then I don;t think we will be able to challenge for the plate...
Though anything can happen in finals and we could nick the Toilet seat which'd be beyond awesome.

Why didn't I salsh my wrists then and save myself the trouble, honestly? ::)
