Friday Night

Featured Replies

Posted

This friday we take on the Hawks under lights on the big stage. With GCS & GWS playing this round we could easily find ourselves in last position after this round.

Need a big effort from the lads. A win would be nice, but i'm just hoping for a 4 quarter effort that does smash our percentage below whoever looses the new kid on the block derby!

As an interstate member i donโ€™t often get to many games at the G. Where would people recommend that i sit for a good view and to be amongst the MFC faithful?

Watching Hawthorn on saturday night was a hard thing to do. That list of players trusts each other. The MFC list does not.

Have our players learnt anything since the Round 2 2011 smashing?

Doesn't look like it. To be bottom of an 18 team comp when one side is playing its first season is beyond disgraceful. I doubt GW$ will win, but in a way i hope they do. So this whole club can feel shamed into ACTUALLY improving & not just talk about it.

Pity we delisted Shane Valenti. We could use him next friday night.

I must admit I have a hatred for Hawthorn, really the only club in the AFL I really Hate. This stems back to late 80's, then into the 90's and has been really highlighted over the past 5 years. To me Hawthorn are our school yard bully, they pick on us, intimidate us, bash us and their ex president had no problem sinking the boots into us. I remember 5 years ago walking to the MCG, Dean Bailey's first game as coach, Cale Mortons first game as player, we still had some old names on our list that gave us some hope that 2007 was just a bad year these guys are good players we keep them fit and who knows maybe back into the top 8. 15mins into the first our year was over, they smashed us, they distroyed any confidence our players had and this was the start of the rebuild. We realised that for our older players that was it and more concerning we didn't have anyone coming through.

Last year I still believe that our second quarter against the Hawks was the best we have played in 6 years, again hope at half time that was destroyed by the 15min mark of the third quarter that was the start of the end for Dean Bailey.

If there is any week I would love our team to go down swinging it is on Friday night, I don't care if players miss weeks through suspension, we have to stand up to our bullies, someone take to Buddy he struts around like Mick Jagger when he palys the team he once barracked for, the Chucker Sam Mitchell puff his chest out and seems to know that he can drop the ball throw the ball and will never be penalized against Melbourne. Jorden Lewis plays like he is 10 foot 2 agasinst Melbourne, Roili has feasted on us, their young kids Brucest, Smith, Shoenmakers, Suckling and co are in on the bullying.

I hate Hawthorn and I can't wait for the day when we finally stand up to them

I'm not sure... which pub is it that most here frequent? ;-)

I don't think it will be the 10+ goal drubbing that Harcourt is suggesting, but I think it would be the height of optimism to believe we could win it,.

Hawthorn learn from criticism and do something about it.

The MFC look for excuses.

It will be exactly the same as Round 1 2008 unless our list looks each other in the eye and says "F$&@k that...no more".

Yeah it will for bottom tier and top tier. If you want good seats in either make sure you get there 20mins early (thereabouts)

Gate 3 - and if you want to be sure of being in a sea of red and blue call the club to sit on the second level - it'll cost you but you'll be among your own,


I think we'll be beaten but probably by about the same margin as by Geelong, I don't think they are better than Geelong and we are playing them at the G not down at Skilled Stadium.

I'm dreading this game more than any other game this year. I will be happy if we get within 10 goals.

I am trying not to think about it. When was the last time we got near them ?

2010 midyear we looked good then the rain came down and I think we only got done by 21 odd points

See what Hawthorn have even done to us loyal MFC supporters they have smashed us into submission. The Yellow and poo brown supporters will walk into our MCG on Friday night knowing they have us beaten on and off the field. Hawthorn started our rot and it is the time we stopped it.

See, we can't even recall when we last beat those buggers. Beyond tragic isn't it!!

If you'd taken them at the line-bet over the last 3 games, all-up, you'd now have 7.08 times your investment.

This week the $1.92 line has them starting 48.5 points ahead of the Hawks.

See, we can't even recall when we last beat those buggers. Beyond tragic isn't it!!

It is, but I can't recall when we last beat Geelong, Collingwood, Carlton, North.

Besides Essendon and Richmond the only other teams I remember beating are St Kilda 2006 final and Western Bulldogs in 2007 the most selfish game of footy we have every won, if we had lost that there would be no Nick Nat v Jack Watts argument we would have them both.

i feel sick reading this

Would be nice if both Gibson and Hodge missed, which is a chance. Clarke could bag a few.

Me too! Hawthorn give me the absolute s@&$s!

I really want to see Rioli crunched, Buddy get a corky and our big enforcer Mitch really ruffle a few egos.

I really want to see a contest!

Meh.... we're tanking so we don't have to take Viney Jnr with pick 2 or 3....

I wish we were good enough to tank.

if we get within 12 goals i will be happy, we just can not compete with the hawks, they simply have our number and are far too hard and skilled for us

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
