BRUISE FREE FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!

Softest team in the history of the AFL!

It's strangely comforting reading this thread. At least when you do you realize how many people out there feel your disappointment.

Can I make a prediction though?

An absolute roasting in the media, followed by a much improved performance – probably a narrow loss, maybe even a win – next week against the Blues. Seriously. For a couple of years now the only thing that fires our playing group up is bottoming out and then getting lashed by the media.

PS Bailey has to go.

 

Neil Craig did the right thing after the Crows got spanked by the Saints by 100+ will Dean do the right thing too...


The softness is unimaginable.

If the club wants 15k members next year, they better announce a change of coach and football department on Monday. Not that i think that can even save this club, but it will at least give hope to some supporters.

The administration sold the rebuild to us, and it was the last roll for a lot of long suffering supporters. It has failed. I fear for this club. The culture of failure beat everyone.

What, we should start a new rebuild then?

I'm disappointed, disgusted and repulsed myself. But in two years time this will be nothing more than a blip on the radar. I don't think the rebuild has failed- it's barely started.

maybe but if not hopefully the club will do the right thing on his behalf

 

Embarrassing.

I don't care that it's Geelong in Geelong, to concede 20 goals in one half of football is pathetic. No team should ever concede that many goals.

Our youth/inexperience/whatever is no excuse for a performance this inept.

What's the bet we come under immense scrutiny this week, and then put in a half-decent performance against Carlton, thereby removing from people's minds how bad we are right now?

Brian Royal (backline)

Please tell me why this football 'genius' is in charge of our Backs???


I'm more concerned with having Josh Mahoney in charge of our forwards.

Is that 41 inside 50s for 32 scoring shots?

All i will say about today's performance so far, is that it goes way deeper than just the Coach.

If you want Bailey gone, then Brad Green has to also cease as Captain after today.

NEW START...

Absolutely agree we need assistants that know what they are dong.

MFC is a joke right now. Would love to see JMac in a assistant coaching role next year. Could we entice G Lyon?

Josh Mahoney...never heard of him. Must speak volumes of his capacity.

I'd only keep Scotty West from the whole coaching staff.

Stop talking of Garry Lyon, he has been out of the game since 1998...it won't happen.


For months now i have been saying that our players are no where as good as we think.

For months I have been told I do not know what i am talking about.

"We have a talented group" "who only need time"

I am constantly told.

Well guys what is the line tonight?

We have A football department that after four years has us producing what may be the worst performance

In the clubs history.

The has beens we threw out did not play this badly

at least they gave their best.

Unfortunately we have to start again.

I am too old for this but what is the alternative!

Sorry DB but after 4 years you have taken us backwards.

Do the honourable thing and resign tonight.

And CC it is time for the same mate.

Third biggest lead at three quarter time in the history of the game.....says it all really.

No woman in my life has left me more broken-hearted over and over and over like the Melbourne Football Club.

+1 +2 & +3

Well said. Sad thing is i dont think the club will survive another rebuild.

Id be happy to see all the over 23s go at the end of the year. They have contributed to the rotting of this club as much as the coaches.

After reading todays Hun and hearing the players state they want Bailey as coach, Is that really the way to show it. Very hard to keep positive.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
