I do love how much more pace we have in our side over these past 2 weeks. Frost, Hannan, Garlett, Spargo, are all pacy players who were dropped for next to no reason.

Especially on the MCG, we need players like this.

Oh god... Razor Ray is umpiring.

Glad I pay for WatchAFL and woke up early (UK) to watch a screen showing me how many minutes I'm missing

Same problem here. Fine for the Lions match, not for ours. Typical

Anti MFC commentators and Razor. Magnificent.


Don't know where JKH is gonna make his mark today but its not as a backman

Way into Q1 and Watch AFL hasn’t started working yet. !

Looking like this will be a massive scoring game. Two horrific defences.

 

Cmon Lewis thats 2 shockers in a row.

JKH opted out there. Soft. Sorry, if nothing else you MUST compete if you want to play in this side. Cards marked. Not a MFC player


Hogan looks off, big time.

Oh boy, MFC of old there.


That was a mark to Bernie.

And that ladies and gentleman is why Tom McDonald should not be a defender.

Hospital handpasses and kicks galore from both teams.


If u ever needed a reason to never play T-Mac down back....there it was!  Will Goody ever learn the basic does and donts!??

Letting some obvious frees going

Lazy, lazy, lazy.

We will lose if we keep this up.

Where is the intensity?

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.
