Picket, I reluctantly have to agree in fact I have writtwn a new club song which is more appropriate to our current situation. Coincidentally the original, She Loves You  was written by the Beatles  about the same time Melbourne enjoyed any real success  

They’ve lost another game, the eighth one for the year.

There’s nothing left to do, but to have another beer.

Because they’re lazy and they do not give a stuff .Yeah Yeah Yeah

They’re lazy and they don’t try hard enough Yeah

They’re lazy, Yeah Yeah Yeah, They’re lazy Yeah Yeah Yeah

And when they play like that they really make me sad.

 

I caught up with the coach at the front of the team bus

I yelled out from the street, Apologize to us,

He said you’re crazy, you’re just another fan Yeah Yeah Yeah

We’re not lazy I’ve got a new team plan Yeah

I cried I’m crazy Yeah Yeah Yeah I’m crazy Yeah Yeah Yeah

Because a club like this has finally sent me mad

Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

I think it really has!

Jones - Battled manfully throughout

Viney - Solid without starring

Gawn - Appoint him captain

Stretch - Just not improving 

O. McDonald - Embarrassing the jumper

T. McDonald - Tranquilized on ketamine?

Frost - Football brain lobotomised

Smith - Didn't do enough

Hibberd - Unfit and underdone

Hunt - Couldn't get going

Oliver - Brilliant then faded

Brayshaw - What's going on?

Harmes - Below his benchmark

Spargo - Has Goodwin photos

Weideman - Unimpressive yet again

Petracca - Flawed kicking mechanics

Kennedy-Harris -  Has McCartney photos

Players lazy. Don't give a stuff? You have to be joking. You , Picket Fence and other haters  go and watch some other sport.. 

the absurd aspect is that if Weideman's kick had been a goal none of you knockers  would have bern writing the crap you now are.

every player tried his guts out, every player was bitterly hurt. When Melbourne was easily the best ream in 1955, they kicked  5.15 then 6.16 then 8.18. Surprisingly enough  they lost all three matches. It happens to every team from time to time.

Agree on most, but thought Brayshaw & Petracca were ok. Harmes should've kicked that goal needs more composure.Someone needs to tell Hunt to slow down a couple of strides when on the run he'd be less eratic.

Nice trip down memory lane Farmer.  

However It’s now 2019 some 63 years later, the skill levels are far superior & we as a club kick for goal like the little league. It’s completely unacceptable & has put us under enormous pressure.  We should of beaten West Coast & Adelaide however due to basic kicking errors we didn’t.

Weideman didn’t kick that simple goal from 20 metres out directly in front & we as long suffering supporters & The MFC are now in an even bigger world of pain.

Strangely I have seen enough this season in a couple of games to suggest we can & will make a big Statement in the second half of 2019. To think Geelong sits on top at the halfway mark makes me want to vomit.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
