Melbourne United's performances

Breakers aka Brickers were plain horrible at both ends. United still have a way to go to get anywhere. They will struggle with TSV/ADE/Perth size - expect kickert to foul out and be ineffective. Pledger is injured and unable to come out to cover kickert - well that was most of NZ.

I'm not buying into this "Cairns are just Melbourne's bogey team argument"

I think they will struggle to make the top 4 in general.

They don't have the size and inside presence to compete with the likes of Perth and NZ and can't beat Cairns.

Those three teams will finish ahead of them.

Then they will have their usual inconsistencies and nightmare games (like the Tigers of last year) and drop a few games to the other sides.

I see them 5th or just limping into the top 4 for an early finals exit.
