    I'm pretty sure Peter K would gladly throw his hand up, plus his photos are always great!

    Please don't.

    Still have no idea what you are ranting about, as in the pics posted there is no collage.

    What makes me laugh is that after a loss, the club and website basically go into lockdown.

    On Saturday for example, all the facebook feed could manage is a link to the "play by play" page on the official site.

    In fact, the club didn't even mention that the team lost.

    First there was this post: https://www.facebook.com/MELBOURNEfc/photos/a.414317157316.209227.285839797316/10153297419662317/?type=1

    And then this one, a prompt 60 minutes after the loss: https://www.facebook.com/MELBOURNEfc/posts/10153297646372317

    I get that it's "damage control", but it's a pretty poor effort in terms of informing your fans how the team is travelling.

    Compare this to Brisbane's page, which actually keeps the fan engaged and informed throughout the match. The lost by 80 points: https://www.facebook.com/BrisbaneLions?fref=ts

    And Carlton: https://www.facebook.com/OfficialCarltonFC?fref=ts

    My number one pet hate about the site's coverage is when they do the "Past record doesn't matter" article.

    I've seen it about 5 times this year. Obviously Burgs is asking the question, "What does the playing group make of its recent poor record against this week's opposition?" And the answer is always the same: "We don't talk about it."

    Ah Ha! BURGS is the spectre!

    We've been looking in the wrong place! It's not the players, we should get rid of Burgs! He keeps reminding the players, publicly, about how [censored] they are.

    Get on it Roos.

    We really are a long way behind most other clubs in the media stakes. I think the only player we had a debut reaction video for was vandenBerg.

    We really aren't. Many of my mates who barracks for various opposition clubs say how much onto it our media team is compared to theirs.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
