sylve ALMOST got it!

come on boys, just over 20 points! Get back in there!

Could we lose it from here? - Roughead first goal, Williams a shot at goal, and Morton kicks a goal.

BAH - Stokes Goal as well now. Come on fellas.

im worried too...

If we win or not, I want someone new to step up e.g Grimes, Frawley or Martin.

i totally agree

HEARTBROKEN !!!

We are a [censored] joke. Absolute joke.

Also, [censored] you Bartram.

Unbelievable. Actually, no, typical.

I love barracking for Melbourne

That Grimes smother was awesome though, and Cheney and Spencer showed a lot. In the end, it was our poor kicking in front of goal and our midfield (which is seriously terrible, aside from McLean) that lost us the match.

Oh, and Newton is an absolute joke of a footballer, and I sincerely hope to never ever see him in a Melbourne jumper again.

Oh well, we're off to the sticks! Who's gonna guess the first serious knee injury on a concrete oval??

How did that just happen. Just lacked the polish and quality in the end.

Looking at the positives Frawley was superb. Bail looked good and Grimes had a fine last quatar under pressure.

The likes of Sylvia & Newton really need to step it up. Both lacked impact in a big way.

HEARTBROKEN !!!

The '87 Preliminary Final all over again!

Bloody ridiculous. How long before the siren did he kick it?

That was a friggen terrible game, even when we were in front it was becaue the Hawks weren't trying.

We have too many players with poor skills, ie Frawley, Bell, Bartram, PJ, Dunn, Newton...bah, makes me mad just thinking about it.

If we continue like this pencil us in for last

Why do I put myself through this? Why do I care about the MFC???

I think we're at Princes Park next Saturday.

Wow how did we lose that

Didn't we have 8 weeks more preseason than them.

dismal display and lacking of character

Pathetic last quarter - and that was the only quarter of football that was anything like what Melbourne will experience this year.

In the first three quarters, I would have looked good out there. The opposition wasn't trying.

What we can take out of the game is that Newton's time is up. He will not be at the club next year.

Sylvia was exceptionally disappointing.

Miller still does not have good enough football brains.

Did we really expect any other result? lol I mean, Melbourne 30 points up at 3 quarter time is hardly in the bag.

Why do I put myself through this? Why do I care about the MFC???

Its only the NAB cup. Surely an expected result before the game started.

that was shithouse 1MIN to go and they cant keep possesion, i about to throw a brick thru the TV.

I think we need to look at this game in a constructive way - first game at Launceston and none of our draft picks from last year except for Bail. Lots of room for improvement - Watts in the Forward line

Its only the NAB cup. Surely an expected result before the game started.

I disagree, we should have won the game

The tradition of the mentally weak MFC continues.
