Was just unfair.  The umpires gifted North the game.

I [censored] hate that team and their pathetic cry baby coach.  Bunch of pretenders

Glad I couldn't watch it, as the combination of bias umpiring, Brent Harvey kicking 6 and North winning a close one would have pushed me over the [censored] edge. 

Sounds like a decent effort at least after last week. But again why did we let them kick 8 in a row? It's [censored] like that we need to eradicate out of our DNA so that we can stop chasing impossible wins.

Showed good grit to get back into it and but held out my a more mature and experienced side. We were spent in the last and with that went the run and execution. The frustration now is when we are on with the inside and outside balance we are breathtaking to watch but we fall into old way too quickly. Take that effort and style in and you win most weeks.

I'm really looking forward to the day they completely drop off a cliff and fall back to the bottom.

Have the oldest list and are not likely to win the flag.

Well said. Umpires went blind when we were due for free kicks. Very proud of the boys. Go Dees

Overall free kicks even.

but the decision not to pay the mark to Harmes at the end was a disaster, compounded by the absurd free to Goldstein in the second quarter. It's not the number of frees but where u get them

Theft. 6 goals from frees. Many doubtful. Frees not given to us. Marks not given to us. Few mistakes and it takes three over 34 year olds to give them about 12 goals.

Excluding the first quarter, THAT is the intensity we must bring to every, single game.

It is the standard that'll see us win the next 3 in a row.

Fancy letting that little runt get 6.0. You'd be hard press to find an easier 6 goals. 

Hate to say it but we should have had all the run in the last and to have fewer rotations available was yet another major coaching error. We were getting smashed in the last and that should have been expected given North's experience. The game was ultimately lost in that 10-minute window, half-way through the last, while we were trying to slow down our rotations to stretch them out. They had more run and it showed.

Also, Dunn is finished. I am so sick of him and Garland dumbing up our team so damn much. You have a game there to be won and you look sideways. Astonishing. Just a dumb footballer. Can't wait until the final weeds of the Daniher and Bailey eras are pulled out of this club. Massive liability down back, once again. That mis-timed jump as Boomer and two other North players fell behind was just astonishing. Should have stayed grounded. 10-year experienced player making a rookie mistake.

Anyone know how many goals they got from frees? Be interesting to know

1000. 

 

Also the amount of times I'd have watched this game if we won. 

 

I'm so angry. 

 

Also would more funds fix this site / get a new one? I'll chuck in, this site is a lemon.

Jaded effort at the contest in first was pretty good but we turned it over and they killed us on the outside and were kicking with a big wind. Cant say I was happy at quarter time but the score made it look worse than the application.

Really good effort. Two clangers from Watts and Vanders cost us. Umpiring was a disgrace. Frost, M Jones not up to it and must go. Wagner not ready. Looking forward to Garlett, Brayshaw, ANB and Petracca coming in.

LOL loss 16 against a mob of pretenders, and some are trying to blame it on the umpires.............. again............

MFC have WAY too many supporters who are too easy to please.

Glad the sugar-coaters fund this chit. Means i can keep saving the money i would have spent on membership for stuff i actually enjoy.

This was a statement game believe it or not. Makes me laugh.

Or not.

Geez, the umpires better be careful. Gave us a rough run in rnd 1, we're appalling and had real impact in rnd 3...

One thing you couldn't wish on anyone is the pent-up rage of 1000 years of Demon frustration suddenly turning to you and holding you responsible!

Meanwhile, some congratulations are in order -

Jazk Ziebell, 19 tackles, equalling Jude Bolton's all-time record.

Max Gawn 63 hitouts, equal 4th of all time.

Brent Harvey (you utter, utter, jammy bstrd) outright career-high goals. Should we take comfort that we were beaten by a once-in-412-games achievement?

Gawn monstered Goldy in the ruck, but Goldy did the job around the ground, including a couple of soft goals from frees. What a battle, 172 SuperCoach points each.

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
