at the game - it’s clear sydney’s positional structures and where they run is far superior to ours.  we look scrappy - they look polished.  partially it’s coaching and partially it’s our lack of maturity i reckon.

 

Pederson kicks the goal but Oliver being manhandled, what the hell do we have to do for a free kick?

Geez, I know we’re not settling the world on fire but a decision our way wouldn’t go astray!

Gil says no.


Another year of failure. Thanks Dees, the most reliable peehearts in the competition. 

Get stuffed. Don't know how many times you can get supporters hopes up only to fall over at the line time and time again. Missing finals this year, after last year's capitulation, will be the final insult. 

You arent going to win too many games of footy with Tyson and Jones on both wings 

They've had 12 free kicks. I've counted 8 from Nichols.

We are not playing well (we're witches hats), nonetheless, the club has to at least ask the question of the AFL.

 

We have the players but what this and the Hawthorn game show is that we don't have a Head Coach who is smart enough to get us a Premiership.

Honestly jonesy i love you but if you’re playing injured just give up your spot. You’re so behind it atm


they are 2 players down. 

we haven't played finals in 11 seasons. 

why is Jordan Lewis on Papley.. whyare all our defenders so slow 

Horrific stoppage work by us to give up whatever ghost of a chance we had.

Cheap easy goald..

 

Who the hell is on Papley? Where Hunt??


[censored] midget [censored]. No opponent either.

Also #freekickswans

Our chasing has been pathetic and second effort chasing does not exist.

if Jones isn’t injured he is shot.

Agree the umps (Nichols) are quick to pay anything that looks like a free to the Swans, yet continue to give us nothing.


Well what do you know, Nathan Jones missing again when the heat is applied, wheres his admirers now? An ordinary player his whole career.

Who said Sydney were easy beats? I knew they'd come out firing after last week, too many good players.

Goodwin again clueless in the box.

We are so [censored]. 

Still think the AFL is rigged. 

The bald [censored] of an umpire hates us.

Always next week. We need to kick 5 golas now. Can't see that happening.

 

5 goals down and its game (Season) over.

If we cant beat the Swans with their injuries we have zero hope against WCE and GWS.

Cant wait for the presser describing the "learnings" from today.

Actually thought we could win today.... i really did. Guess that will teach me to believe in this mob.

Lesson learned.

4.2 to 6.4 that quarter.

they are 2 players down. 

we haven't played finals in 11 seasons.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
