Hardtack are you at the game?

No... like you I'm in Sydney... just watching Twitter for updates from MFC


Guys I'm in Thailand so can't make it. Lots of progress reports/updates in this thread would be much appreciated thanks.

...phhhh Typical MFC supporter....no commitment so won't come to the game just because it isn't at the G :-)

 

15-1 Hawks after 17 mins. Hawks have had five scoring shots to one.


I've noticed with Matt's tweets they get further apart as we get further behind...

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.

Hehe. I tried to change my flight!! ;)


21-2 Hawks

Couldn't agree more Mono. It is because of supporters like Allen Jakovich who won't fly home from Thailand to watch a practice match at Casey that Port Adelaide has signed 150,000 members.

Whoop whoop

is it sad that i'm lying on the couch, hitting refresh every minute, watching for updates of the game?

i gotta get a girlfriend.

I have a wife and am still doing the same thing. At least you don't have anyone nagging you to get up and do the dishes from lunch.


Howe goal 22-8

Jeremy on Fire!!

"two from two"

 

we are one of the worst, playing one of the best, if not the best, this is all as expected.

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.

Another Howe goal! 22 - 14

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
