Who could forget this one.

looking at the 25 listed there there were quite a few VFL players and then we lost Fitzpatrick before half time as well as McDonald.

Six no longer at the club and Trengove as we now know on one leg.

Surely we can win this one!

We had a fair few more scoring shots as I recall, and Riewoldt only cut loose after T Mac got injured

Gotta win this

It's hard to believe that only 14 months ago we put out a side with Byrnes, Georgiou and Trengove in it. It feels like several years since Jack played, and the other two have been long banished from my memory.

We should win this, but it all depends on whether we decide to play for four quarters or two.

If we lose this our players will definitely suffer from mental issues.....

Start of the year I would have marked this as a win, I'm no where near as confident anymore.

It would be disastrous if we lost this.

Another loss to the Saints.

Another loss at Etihad.

If we have "improved", then we should win.

If we don't win, I can't see how anyone could possibly argue that we've improved.

100% correct praha

the BS stops next sunday night

I'm 100% certain we will lose this. My wife is a saints supporter and this last 8 years has been hell. I've given up on getting one up on her with the footy.

Sorry mate, I hate to tell you but I think Mrs Pipefitter will be rubbing more salt into your wounds on Sunday night.

Damn Etihad curse!

Would have to agree, if the players are to show improvement and the club is to sell hope then we need to be beating the teams around us in the bottom four. For me this is the most important game of the year so far...time to beat them and move forward...

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
