What a complete and utter disgusting display. 

I can deal with a loss but this is heartbreaking.

    FU Nichols you are a [censored] dirty hopeless umpire with a vendetta.

    I didn't realise the skull was out there... but I shld have known the AFL would arrange for it.  Got their insurance for the interstate vs Vic GF

     

    I just feel sick. No thanks even one goal

    Can we break a few records?

     

    Midfield should be ashamed of themselves. Disgusting display especially by our leaders. Jones, Gawn and Lewis have done absolutely nothing.

    I get a feeling the boys didn’t want to front up to Collingwood next week.

    One hell of a reality check.

    See y'all on the Draft and Cheese board.

    Need a response.. game is gone, but cannot let this be 100 points.. save some pride

    [censored]! A goalless half, where the prize is a Grand Final berth

     

    Pathetic..

    Leaders have gone missing again when it counts. 

    Diddnt even know Jones was playing. 

    Viney to be sole captain next yr please.

    50 years of this just another to add to the list. Only positive we won two finals and clearly this game will highlight who can't cut the mustard. What hurt is these flogs have been consistent finalists for years and we just keep being let down. Does it ever end.

    Team just isn’t ready to be a serious contender yet, won 2 finals after a decade+ but today was a bridge too far

    Worst half by a team in a final since 1927. That’s how bad we’ve been. The midfield today has been Neeld era bad. 18 tackles in a half in a final. Less than half be opposition who have had the ball the whole time. Pathetic effort. 

    So disappointing to completely sh*t the bed after all the good work to this point.

    Very very very disappointing 

    Some players out there are not up to the pressure mentally and physically 

    List changes MUST be made in the next few weeks

    Those who want to be part of a premiership in the next few years need to stand up in the second half!!

     

    Wow.  A complete capitulation.  Jogging to contests now.  Can’t win a contest, cant execute basic skills.  At least 4 players having absolute stinkers.  It is getting embarrassing.  We lack composure and have created this mess.  Eagles have take our slop and are running past us like witches hats.  

    Gotta reflect on the positives for this year, and this will not be one of them

    0 marks inside 50 for the entire first half, is that a record ?

    • 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.
