Im just waiting to hear how much the Weid is on in his new contract. We will then probably hear that Charlie S has signed a 3 year deal.

    Plan A is to play on at all costs, run helter skelter down the ground until we lose the ball due to poor skill execution.

    Plan B is to what.....invoke Plan A.....?

    Amazing how a 2nd year player in the system can make our defenders look 2nd rate

    Marie Kondo says to thank things before disposing of them . Thanks Garlett and goodbye.

    Think Kielty will make a better CHF than Weiderman

    Hes just not a footballer

     

    Not a single body on Stephenson. Jones avoided the space snd contest. He was free to go up for contest after contest. There is consistently space in front of him.

    There is fundamental coaching and structural issues here. Surely you can all see it.

    We are playing like we've already lost. It is heartbreaking.


    The most wasteful team in the comp


    Hunt our only viable forward who can kick a goal.

    But surprisingly Hunt really is a footballer

    Hardly defenders faults. They have Cox and Grundy floating back. Our midfielders are defensively inept. 


    Viney's kicking coming inside 50 never gets better.  Just woeful skills and we are half way through the season already.

    Every single comment Tim Watson makes is anti Melbourne no matter what the topic is.

    It should be noted he does it when we’re winning as well.

    We have to be up by about ten goals for him to remain quiet. So he’s very rarely quiet.

    He is just an ordinary footballer in general. Thinks he's playing rugby union half the time.

    • 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.
