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!

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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
