GAME DAY - Round 4, 2017

Featured Replies

So so Melbourne - this is part of who we are unfortunately. Nothing's changed.

 

Hows that not 50 to Watts?

 

3 behinds, pathetic. We have Richmond essendon Adelaide & hawthorn the next 4 wks. This is a must win. I can't see it happening. 

 

Bottom 4 team just kicked 8 goals in a row on us. Just let that sink in.

Paul Roos 3 years of work undone in a quarter.

Just abysmal. 0.3 to 7.4.

We look slow, our positioning and skill execution is hopeless.

Take that Watts shot at goal from the boundary. Low percentage option.  How about we construct a set shot from 30 metres out in the corridor.


What's going on with Viney. He's letting Neale just run passed him constantly. 

He looks absolutely spent. 

Mmm could really use Hogan and Lewis

 

Could have gone away this weekend, instead I am watching a game of football. 

7.4 to 0.3.

Won't even enjoy if we win now.


Absolutely disgusting effort today. The players should have to forfeit their pay for the day. They simply haven't earnt it. We're losing to a bottom 4 team that's flown half way across the country to play. Absolutely pathetic effort. Even if we get up and win from here they shouldn't be [censored] ashamed of themselves!

Pathetic 

This club will never learn.

Viney needs a run in the 2s

Typical weak pathetic shite Melbourne.

We are a perennial shite club and showing every bit of it today. Why I bother spending 8 hours travelling to amd from the ground to continually baffles me. We just stink it up continually. 

Jack Viney is a complete liability his year. He can't even stick a tackle anymore let alone get a clean disposal. I'd make a statement and drop him.


Lack of ruthlessness when five goals ahead. Freo midfield is seriously good and has exposed ours as pretenders.

Tag Jones and gang tackle Oliver and we have nothing. Tyson and Viney are limited players.

No leadership out there. I hope Viney is injured because I tell you what, he has totally given up today.

My three memberships are going back to the club. That was the final straw, I'm done with this club. 

We have been exposed. Such a great start to the year but we are back to the club that unfortunately too many of us remember.

How important was it to build on last years wins. I have a feeling we will finish 10th. 

It is depressing... I wish I could change teams. Oh to have that winning feeling and be happy in life. 

Wow. What an insipid quarter of footy.

Watching Jack Viney get brushed aside like Cale Morton probably the most confusing part.

Let's see a good response.


This might blow out. Looking at them in the huddle...they *look* defeated.

You really couldn't pick a more Melbourne game.

We can still win.

If Goodwin can coach we will not let them touch it.

Im told we are just practising our strategy when coming from behind.

Have no fear.

For those of you gloating about the margins etc I worry about the delusion .

We are a young,flaky,confidence team.

 

Zero chance we win this and it just cost us 40,000 members Goodwin just got schooled 

Never have i seen a player panick so much when he has the footy in his hands.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
