Well I done my pregame warmup. I have had 2 wines and 8 bundy rums and still counting.  I have always said that an alcohol voucher should be included in the MFC membership pack.  Make u

It’s amazing how Dangerfield can scoop / throw out the ball right in front of an umpire and it’s play on.

Petracca and his long bomb just cost us the game.  Why the hell didn't he chip to an uncontested mark??

The AFL "live" ladder looks magnificent

 Sitting in 4th spot.?

Live ladders mean nothing if we're not in front in the end.

Did Garlett get refused entry into the ground?

Might have been ejected after the first goal.

He's a great clubman and has 4000 bad kick credits in the tank

I do not have a good feeling about this. 

As I said earlier, a tight contest will see the crowd and the umpires get Geelong the win. 

Effort is definitely there, but we are again wasteful which we really can’t afford. And our backline is so suspect. We need to not break even but actually start to dominate clearances if we are going to win.

we are playing better than Geelong, just need to keep up the pressure, Hogan has to get moving and needs to chase, he is a lazy football, who seems to figure once his jumped for the mark he does not need to do anything else.  Tyson needs to learn how to handball, seems like he is trying to do some clary jump and handball over the player moves that are just not working out, he keeps loosing the ball. 

Another half like the first with straighter kicking and we will win this one.

We are still long bombing into the forward 50. Doesn't work on the narrow Geelong ground. LOWER THE EYES!

It's also partly an issue because by the looks of it we are letting them have a man loose in defence from the bounce. Just about every time we move the hall forward from a centre clearance we turn it over due to poor disposal or being out numbered. I'd like to see Goodwin back our mids and make Geelongs defenders accountable. We need to make more of our inside 50s yet again.

Doing everything except finishing our hard work inside 50. So frustrating because it feels like the Dees are continually going to explode, only to kick to Hogan, TMac or Petracca who have 2 opponents. I feel we are far the better side but wasteful (again!).

Harmes has been on Selwood who has done FA. Was only on Danger when the ducking one was off according to Channel 7.

Bernie, Smith, Frost and Salem have been solid down back.

Need to keep the pressure up and use the baller better going into our forward 50.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

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
