The Petracca squib summed up his season thus far.

We need to win next week or it’s season over. Only 3 teams in 100+ years have won the flag from 0-3.

    You hope to get four goals s quarter   Bloody not four goals for the whole game !

    Bit unfair though

    wet, surgeries, we forget how to resemble ourselves, we didn’t know when the season started, no one could get the BOM forecast  etc etc

    Petracca check your pants, little bit of poo will be in your undies

    Absolutely squibbed it. He has been awful. Not improving...a footballer going nowhere! I want him to be good but it ain’t happening

    They and we,  all fell for the positive fugazi during Preseason. 

     

    And we all made much of the fugazi ourselves,  selling ourselves our own hype.

    The players obviously believed it,  and are mentally under-prepared now,  and are playing catch-up,  Re confidence and also fitness,  because I think the Mfc fell into the same trap,  as we have.

    Not really, no experienced Melbourne supporter believed all the media BS

    Barlett should have Pert ,Goodwin, Jones in for a coffee first thing tomorrow.

    Losing a home game to a non finalist followed up by this says there is something wrong somewhere.

     

     

    Goodwin will be full of excuses, because this club loooooves an excuse. We had a short pre season. Boo hoo. We played finals and now we are unfit. Boo hoo. 

    Cry me a [censored] river Melbourne. Let’s continue not to ever compete in September and have long and healthy pre seasons.

    We aren’t winning the flag this year no matter what.

    Start the rebuild again!

    Maybe we can grab one of WCE’s theee small forwards who are fast, tackle and provide pressure. 


    This is a good time to look for which players continue to fight it out, in this last Qtr...  and again next week.  To rise to the occasion and fight back for form.

    Those who turn up their toes in the next 5 Qtrs,  can go back to Casey for a month.

    This is a timely reminder to our infant supporters who just expected strong performances, after finals last year.

     

    Get in your lane kids..... This is more like the Dees we know.

    I’ll take Cory Wagner. Petracca needs a rocket 

    That's the answer? Wagner? FMD.

    Who replaces Lockhart? Who replaces Sparrow? Who replaces Frost? Who replaces ANB? Who replaces Jones? Who replaces KK?

    Replacing with a Wagner is just shuffling the deck chairs.

    I'm not saying you are wrong. It's just that replacing Trac is a luxury we can't afford at this time. I would love it if it was. I'm very disappointed with his output, just a bit more realistic than some others.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
