Multiple Hawks get away with dropping or throwing the ball and we got pinged for a dubious to high in our fwd line. Almost goal.

I think I say it every week how the hell an AFL player can still try to take a chest mark is beyond me, extend your arms, there is a rule where a player can’t chop your arms (never applied now a days) and you can’t be spoiled!!

Umpires see what they want or are instructed to see. Less integrity than wrestling.

Terrible skill level.

No leadership.

What has happened to Tom McDonald and Fritsch?! Neither are even VFL standard at present. Staggering drop in form.

I'm sure TMc is injured.  Fritsch has always been fringe imo.

Hawthorn are ordinary... we aren't even at the level.  So flat, no ability to maintain possession beyond aboit 2 to 3 links.  Too many getting sucked to the contest at stoppages....STILL!!!???  Are we seriously  that dumb we cant play to a structure?? Cover the inside of their outlets at least and force them down the line!

Skills?  Clarry perpetually bombing.

Jeffy / T-mac....Pffft!

Can't believe we've gone this far backwards in 7 games of footy.

    Jordan Lewis needs to never play again. Has hand balled to old team mates

    kicked to wrong team and will not even pretend to chase. Just watches and points.

     

    FGS please put him out to pasture

    We need to start manning up on these hawks. Far to easy with them being able to get the ball down the ground. 

    Just saw bartlett and perty killing themselves laughing about something.  Glad they are enjoying themselves

    Hawks will pull away to a 10 goal lead then put the cue in the rack to stay fresh and uninjured. We will still madly run around like ants whose nest has been disturbed, and to the same effect.

    I've never seen a team run and work so hard yet achieve so little. It is astonishing. 

    I’m not watching - just listening but they (commentators) said we are playing a zone? Explains a lot of so

    Well, cracked record here: confidence (lack thereof)

    2 goals against us directly from players handballing to above the target's head. Professional athletes and they cant do the basics. Skills are appalling.

    Oh come on, they're [censored] good at holding weights underwater

    Embarrassingly poor

    No skills

    Too many commit to contests and 

    Selfish

     

    Sloppy, slow and stupid...

    3 quarters to go. Sigh.


    50 to 80 UCP. They have learnt nothing in almost 10 weeks of football.

    At least Garlett learnt from his mistake 

     

    Our 18th place decision making really compliments our 18th place skills. 

    I haven't missed a Dees game in Melbourne for about 10 years, and I would normally feel deep shame for not going today.

    But today I purely see it as an investment in my mental health. ?

    We had 6 players alone in the F50 and still almost [censored] up that goal.

    Go big Declan, first mark leads to a goal

    Who did Lewis believe he was kicking it to then?   Run it out and use the new rules to pur advantage and gain another 10 meters FFS!

    Old man forgot the new rule, perhaps he's forgotten which team he plays for as well.

    So let’s see if this club has any ATTITUDE at all. 

    Goodwin your job is on the line, your players do not work hard enough every week. You can give me all the fancy [censored] answers about “processes in place” but that is all new age BS

    It all comes down to Attitude. 

    There is little pride in wearing the MFC Jumper, it has been shat on for too long, so now it smells bad. 

     

    Lift your game Goodwin, Coach the dam team to win. 

    You're sounding more and more like DV8

    OMG ...Jeffy

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
