If McDonald wasn't going to get dropped he certainly is after that effort

    Haha remember a few years back when Port were a joke, the Lions were getting smashed, and the Saints were just plain bad?

    ...and we were on the up and up.

    Ah, memories.

    This midfield reminds me of that time we had Moloney, McKenzie and Grimes as our starters.

    What do you expect him to do?

    He's got Fritsch on a wing, Viney in the forward line, TMac higher up the ground.

    What do you want?

    It's systemic change from him we need, not gameday flipping of magnets.

    The players have been pathetic tonight. No guts, no desire, no run, ****house disposal, just an absolutely rubbish performance. I don't know what Goodwin could do? I'm not saying he's not part of the problem but when the players are as pathetic as they've been tonight I don't know what a coach is expected to do. Clarkson the supercoach couldn't do a thing to turn the tide against us a few weeks back. Sometimes it's not the coach.

    The players need a massive rocket because this is just pathetic.

    Georgiades went 6 picks after Pickett in last years draft... and they say talls usually take longer!

    Jason Taylor thought he was getting him at 32. Joke.

    Hibbo's tried. Langdon runs hard. Lockhart was good in the first half. The rest...? They've been utterly atrocious.

    Goodwin has destroyed this team.

    McDonald is officially cooked which is sad. He looks like a big truck out there trying to keep up with everyone.

    We can’t buy a free. 

    True, but even if they gave us the free, and we had the ball, what would we do with it?

    Probably plant it straight onto Westhoff's chest 30m out. Goal. Nah, not keen on that.

    This is far more of a problem than gameday moves.

    I get people are frustrated but there is so much rubbish in this thread. There's plenty wrong with the club but complaints about Lever (possibly our best), Pickett (7th game) and Goodwin not flipping magnets is ridiculous and doesn't address the real issues: turnovers, gameplan, lack of leadership, inability to play football unless we win CPs/clearances, lazy midfielders.

    It would not. I’m all for cracking jokes about this club and this game but when someone you know is fighting for life from this virus, this [censored] pales in comparison. 

    Most people don’t get sick at all with the virus.

But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
