We have to stop calling Salem a great kick. He’s barely even a good kick.

16 disposals, 8 clangers.

    Great goal to the yellow guys,

    some ...yellow/red/black

    I can only distinguish Red& baby blue and the other guys with a bit of yellow.

    We're in trouble!

     

    We are in front, yet I feel just as bad as I did last week.

    We have so many passengers and blokes that, right now, aren't AFL standard.  It's terrible.

    Salem has gone backwards.  Can hit a target over 15 metres and that's it.  Gus has no impact.  Bennell looks like he is running across ice and doesn't want to be touched.

    Only plus for me is May.   Has been sensational, and love that he is bashing and crashing and sticking up for his teammates.

    Seen enough. If this is the club response after last week then we should fold. Not even joking. Soulless.

    Seriously how many passengers do we have.

    Angus brayshaw.  Has been a passenger for 2 years and goodwin continually refuses to drop him

    Deplorable. Goodwin has lost the players. It's going to be a long two years.

    Harmes pushed in the back. Play on. Can’t buy a free.  

    We can’t but instead of worrying about that let’s concentrate on the things we can control. Like I don’t know, learning to kick a football.

    This is the classic lose lose game

    Yep this team is trash. This game just looks and feel like a bottom two clash. I'm not looking forward to getting beaten by 6 goals by norf on Sunday 

    Woeful kicking to open players inside 50.  What is happening at training?  Do we train this at all?  Doesn't appear that way.

    Salem's cost us 2 goals now.  1 dopey push in the back in the middle and one horrid 45 kick straight to a crow forward.

    He's done a few good kicks, offset by a few horrible acts.  So Melbourne

    If harmes just gave the umpire lip, we can’t expect 50:50s to go our way

    Good on him. If Goodwin has courage he'll be asking some questions of them too.

    Gees the unpiring is just terrible

    I'm most annoyed about the lack of 50 when we finally got a holding the ball free kick and Talia just drops the ball to the ground.

    Salem .. 50% disposal efficiency, 8 clangers & 3 frees against. Our best players are going backwards at the rate of knots. 

    Is McHenry the biggest germ in football? We are a disgrace make no mistake if Bartlett is worth anything he will sack Goodwin after the match we are going no where with him. The worst coach in  the comp.

    I’m excited for the Goodwin [censored] fest post game 


    Just... hit a target. I don't understand how you can be so bad at something you've not only practiced almost your whole life, and get paid seriously good coin to do.

    It's actually disrespectful.

    Nibbler is agricultural.  We are panicking all over the ground.  Skills are awful.  Umpiring is abysmal.  If you didnt see the score, you would think we were being flogged

     

    Maybe this is why the players have given up because the umpires do not give us any frees, i know i would be $#((#$ off as well

    • 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.
