Can I please watch a football game without Garry Lyon constantly putting a downer on the demons. Followed this awesome club for nearly 40 years now. Sick of hearing his sarcastic [censored] commentary and putrid comments. [censored] Him off from anything involving the demons annoys me so much. We know we aren’t playing well don’t need a constant reminder from this [censored] 

Unless we find a way to "Make Melbourne Great again" you better get used to it.

 

Cue the Democrats... "Melbourne was never that great".

 

 

Awesome is not the adjective I’d use.

True. He should only be focusing on the positives such as .......

positive that this is the worst team in he comp right now ...

As an ex captain of this club, he's more than entitled to his opinion.  

If you don't want to be constantly reminded of how bad the Demons are going, I'd suggest not ever turning on your TV or opening a newspaper.  

We are woeful at the moment. Best you get used to it.

fmd what did he say? 

I'm sick of people on here and on Facebook posting [censored] without context.

What did he achieve as captain

Sound like you don’t like hearing harsh truths. It’s his job to commentate, we are playing bad. What do you want him to say?

Nothing. Just doing his job well.

Well lol what a joke 

Hard for anyone to commentate a Melbourne game and not be negative. We are woeful. 

Lyon is being honest. The turnovers and dropped marks are ridiculous.

Salem

Jones 

Petracca

Melksham

Kennedy Harris

Viney

all multiple offenders of lazy lazy play

More than you, it would seem

Seriously, another thread bagging Lyon FFS, some people cant deal with the truth

Yeah how dare a former captain of the club and team of the century player whose job it is to commentate say things about the club he played for. Worst thread ever.

Apparently it would seem excellent call. 

Well, it will be all over in two weeks time.?

Are you [censored] serious!?? He has every right to sink the boots in like anyone else. There is not sugar coating this at all! Everything he has said today has been spot on. He is not a MFC paid official he's a media commentator who's role is to give his opinion and thoughts.

I hope we cop it hard all week!

I hear a fair bit of Garry around the place and he is one of the only media types who watches Melbourne close enough to have an accurate opinion. Almost everything he says about us, which is obviously mostly negative at the moment, I agree with.

What was sad for me to hear is how listless Anthony Hudson was. The man is a quality commentator and can build excitement for the contest.

But Melbourne (and Collingwood!) were so listless and bog standard that you could tell he wanted to be anywhere but the commentary box.

FMD what a waste of three hours for everyone involved...even the security guards who only had to watch over several thousand bored people just sitting there like stunned mullets.

Go and hide mate, coz after a comment like that this place isn’t going to be good for you mentally.

Garry is 100% right in his negative assessment of us.

This thread is a shambles. Mods close it down.
