Brisbane didn't win this. We lost it.

What the actual [censored] was Fritsch doing.

 

And that's why Oscar gets criticised


Fritsch has to know he is leading to his wrong pocket. That's not Hannan's fault.  That's just very poor leading from a forward with a game on the line.  He has a habit of it and more than coaching someone how to kick, you can teach people where to run. 

 

Threw it away. Why kick the ball so wide to Fritsch.

Bayley Frietch you are dead set [censored] idiot

yep that too....what a stupid place to lead to.  Always one step away from being a decent team.  We just dont get it at so many levels and always leave too much to too few against the rated clubs


We are a dumb team who could be anything if we didn’t make such bad decisions at times. Fritsch [censored] me. 

Weideman needs some kicking practice

Umpiring was a disgrace 

That mark revirw was a game killer.

Hang on a second i have an important job here.

Two games we’ve had chances to snatch the win at the end and both times poor kicks/decision making have cost us. We are our own worst enemies and this loss and the Cats loss is going to cost us.

Was stupid but they did the same thing multiple times and got away with it

 


That recall of Lever’s mark cost us that game. I am absolutely [censored] fuming!

More the stuffing around further up the wing.  But that kicked needed to be about 20m out from goal to create pressure and contest on the scoring zone.

 

Was it Fritsch who gave away a stupid 50 like that a couple of weeks ago? I know someone did

Just lacked a touch of polish. They are a damn good side. We were just a touch off in the second and didn’t take our chances. That’s what you need to do against the better ones. Learn from it an reset for Port. Good to see Gawn, Viney and Trac try and lift them on their backs.

  • 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.
