Jeremy Howe IS the MFC forward line.

Melbourne FC ‏@melbournefc 1m

Howey again goes bang from outside 50 - he makes it two from two. We trail by just eight points now.

Please see my post above.
He will crack Sheahens top 50 this year, mark my words.

If Nathan Jones's cut under the eye resulted from Jordan Lewis bump then you'd think Lewis'd be up for a holiday.

[DeeZee 7,456]

Could Howie be our saviour at full forward with so many injuries to tall forwards?

[The Song Formerly Known As 6,479]

Never said it wasn't to be expected, just pointing out that we are no doubt struggling to get the ball forward, particularly with our 3 first choice talls not playing.

not having a go sunshine, just sayin'

[monoccular 17,678]

Is JKH, or Salem playing?

21-1 early. Obviously struggling to get the ball forward. Jones is back on the ground after the Lewis hit so that's some good news.

ohh woe is me....we won't win a game all year and have a percentage of 20 :-(((((((

[PaulRB 6,435]

Quarter-time: Haw 3.5.23 to Melb 2.2.14

Sounds like we had a mini-surge in "red-time " to bridge the gap, good to see.

Excited by the time (soon) when Jeremy is our third forward.

Rule 1 - the head is sacrosanct

Rule 2 - except when it is on a MFC player, like last week for example

[Ted Lasso 19,550]

any big possession getters for us so far?

We weren't scoring at the time which would mean we were struggling to get the ball forward. Didn't realise stating the obvious was a 'woe is me' type post.

Not sure about JKH but Salem isn't playing if you had read the team lists, as he wasn't even named in the squad.

[demoniac 1,337]

8 scoring shots to 4.

We have to close the scoring shots gap but Roosy would know that.

[Crystal Dees 372]

Can someone who is actually at the ground give us your thoughts please

[s-t-i-n-g-a 439]

Pretty please

[hardtack 10,900]

Pretty please

With sugar on top.

My woe is me comment wasn't directed specifically to you, but I am certain that there will be some, maybe many, who will delight in that interpretation of events

8 scoring shots to 6 given an out on the full and one that fell short

Is there a "scoring end" favoured by the wind? If YES, who had it in Q1 ?

Jonesy lays a great smother. Right in the thick of the action, yet again.

Dunno, im not there. Just following on twitter

[hardtack 10,900]

29 - 14 Roughead scores

[s-t-i-n-g-a 439]

WJ would be seeing our half this quarter...I wonder if he will see much of the ball?

I'll be more excited when he is our 4th. Hogan, Clark, Dawes and Howe.

[DeeZee 7,456]

Whos on Roughead?

Expect to see the bookies revise the odds for our first game.
