It is possible for today to be pathetic (it is) and the 2016 season to be successful (it has been).

We may have improved some elements but it's hardly a successful is it if this is the litmus

Maybe if you were clearer

Pretty sure you were the only one to interpret my post as blaming the supporters for the way the team was playing. Honestly if that's the inference you drew, nothing else I say is going to help.

Looks like the social media people have gone on holiday, no tweet from Melbourne for 20 minutes

Honestly, I reckon they're as fed up as we are.

Sounds like a good game for me to miss. The off season can't come quick enough for us or the players. Thanks for the improvement this year MFC, have a break, get stuck into preseason and let's launch an assault on the finals in 2017.

Salem our best player today. 

Frost and Hunt. Easily.

And we will go below 100% and to 11th after this limp ugliness.

Hogan has laid 2 tackles over the last 5 weeks.

Checked out already or just another youngster at the end of a long season?

I just watched that incident a couple of times and it was caused by Hogan playing for the free, and animating the effect of the jumper scrag.

So why is this the litmus? Why not say the Hawthorn game was the litmus?

No one game is definitive of the season, the season is the litmus and the season has been a success.

It would just have been more successful if we hadn't turned in a disgrace of a performance today.

Essendrug leading Carlscum by 7 goals yet we lose to both of them. 

Sadly beating Whorethorn was a blip on the radar. 

Still a Mentally Soft Club after 3 years of Roosy. 

Club is still on shaky ground. 

The season is 23 weeks long. Not that this list would know that

Could be too, I just got a bit worried after he got to his feet he went down on his knees again. He seems ok now though.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
