so your improvement is based on winning more games than last year?

Better then losing more!

But games one is a good indicator of improvement, especially since the MFC only won 4 games last year.

    Not that it matters but I was at the ground and though the structures were fine

    What went wrong is we lost 1 v 1 contests and our young blokes couldn't keep up for the whole game. Costly costly turnovers and poor decision in possession made the hawks look good.

    HH please point out tactical errors Neeld made or is the the [censored] comment thread?

    [censored] me what a surprise losing to a top 4 side at our developmental stage

    Thanks for sharing :) .... In all seriousness there are 100 other I hate mark Neeld threads - post rubbish in those.

    If you want to discuss issues in details about the team and their performance let's at least have one thread where we can do that

    I'll repeat the question I posed to HH - I was at the groung and thought the structure were good - we got punnished for poor turnovers and lack of experience.... What tactically wrong did you think Neeld failed at?

    we got smashed by Port and Gold Coast too genius

    wake up

    No you wake up jackass

    both those sides have pretty good mids - what structurally did MN fail at??

    Hot tip you can't answer it because you're a I hate neeld [censored] - all you offer is enjoyment of your club suffering - you're a leech

    Offer a decent opinion or [censored] off

    Hugely encouraged by what I saw today. Yes, the scoreline when taken in isolation is damning, but it in no way reflects the game. That is some of the best football I've seen us play in recent years, let down by poor disposal when we were attacking. Why was the score so bad? The inability of many of our players to kick properly to a leading target and the fact that when passing to a player running past they tend to pass it TO them rather than AHEAD of them. The number of times I saw these two things mess us up is astounding, and they often don't even count as clangers, because they do reach their target, but in such a way as to destroy their attacking momentum. TWO THINGS to fix and we would have seen a more competitive score today. I'll take that over some of the other games we've seen this year.

    If you still think Neeld should stay then you don't understand AFL football. Sick of these supporters accepting mediocrity. Doesn't matter anyway he's gone this week.

    Who said anyting about Neeld staying

    I asked a simple question

    Structurally what did Neeld do wrong? I don't believe his coaching was poor today - doesn't mean I think he'll stay as there are too many other factors but once again

    Offer a decent opinion or go cry in another thread

    I am happy that Neeld will be gone tomorrow.

    Close family member has link to a player. They have to stay in their"structure" with their location determined by the GPS. If they move outside that structure that's a breach of team rules and they get dropped. They are scared.

    Encouraged by a 100 point belting by a playing group and fd that is being paid the same as the opponent?

    Yes, the loser culture is well and truly embedded in the MFC.

    But if you don't like what I say then then it really simple, don't read it!

    Don;t bother. It's not just that they are incapable of providing an analytical post, but that they think the comments they are making are in fact valid arguaments. I've tried to explain that their complete and utter failure to provide any evidence to back up their claims is basically conceding the point, but they respond with "Neeld is crap and we keep losing" and not much else.

    How many times do I need to repeat myself to you dumbasses

    The result was a reflection on our poor execution and in-experience yet you muppets dont' even want to discuss or can't identify the difference in a debate about team performance to If MN should stay

    Where do i say neeld should stay?

    isn't this thread about the team's ability?

    Wake up morons there are enough I want neeld gone threads

    Haha true RM not sure why I am bothering

    I just thought the team offered a bit today - poor skills and inexperience really cost us today - Hawks are top 4 if not top 2 and muppets on here just want to dance on graves

    Just shows how [censored] weak this club is

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
