Just to remind you all of my pathetic year on the punt. I put 50.00 on Melb, last year to make the 8 !!! What do they say about a [censored] and his money?

I just watched a horse of mine run 20 lengths last in heavy 10 ground.

I should ask him if he has ever played footy, I know where he could get a game.

    My guess is Messendon for their special amd mysteries compounds, but I could be wrong.

    I'm watching GWS v Richmond and if GWS has any interest in winning I'm staggered. But it's the AFL's baby so nothing will ever be said.

    Perhaps I'm just imagining it.

    You are not saying Tanking are you?

    I'm saying that this side is 80 points down at half time and I find it hard to believe they are anywhere near that bad. Bugger it, yes tanking.

    No guilty but here is a $600,000 as the boys in the AFL need a first class holiday after a very bussy year and every bit helps.

    Big bodied midfielder I'm guessing.

    If Yes , forget Messendon we have a few places right here in the MFC.

    Should the MFC have award the best and fairest award in 2013?

    Yes, award it to the supporter who went to every home game.

    No but I think he was selected at the sales by Prendergast.

    both, Prendergast said he wanted to be consistent across the board

    Out on Saturday night at a birthday party at which the Essendon / Carlton game was being played.

    two interesting things

    - How I would like to support either of those side, they played it out to the last seconds.

    Both in my opinion are on the way up and over the next few years to possible grand final appearances

    They were both below the MFC 6 years ago!

    - To a person all I got from the assembled group was pity. That is the ones that knew I was a dees supporter.

    The rest thought I supported Carlton. Oh for the days when we actually meant something in the competition.

    Supporting Carlton on Saturday reminded me what it is like to barrack for a decent team and being involved in the match.

    A lost feeling I realised on Saturday night.

    PS it is probably the wrong thing to say on here but the mate and I that I go to the games with most days decided yesterday we are going to a number of decent games next year instead of the agony that is the MFC.

    I would really like to enjoy a game of AFL for a change.

    I think the Blues may be on the way down, as Judd, Scotland, Simpson, Waite and other experienced players will soon retire, or leave, like perhaps Betts.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
