Not wishing for a repeat of last Sunday's goal kicking yips! 3670997906814f837b8784788c9537c6.jpg.5a78564e83df1ae03981daa28f4ff025.jpg

Fox Footy just showed footage from Round 1 last year with Gawn getting targeted, I hope this has been reviewed and they're ready for it. In fact I would love to see a few of our players target Rockliff from the start with a bit of niggle.

I’m excited about this game. Reckon we might shut up some critics. 
 

I’m a bit further into the booze than I wanted to be at this stage and I just loaded up on Sportsbet- bad combination 

But ..... who GAF - I’m confident

Not confident at all.

I think Port we'll get us in a close one.

just saw team line up on tv, hope it's wrong when it has Fritta in the back line and Harmes up forward.

In the post-game last week a couple of the players made mention of what happened last year and that the players hadn't forgotten it.

Hope you’re right Bitter. Most nervous I’ve been for a game this year. 

Looking forward to spending the next two hours being angry at footy rather than Covid and the stupid people in this world. 
Bring it on.

Don't worry. If they try that again, and again early in 2021, our coaches will absolutely take notice and begin the process of commencing to start preparing to plan to counter.



 

Was Harmes even trying to spoil?

  • 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.
