Wish Port would do something about that cow farmer. He's killing them.

It does feel a tad unfair that every club can throw in a stinker this year yet we are the only club that is deemed to be in a crisis when it happens.

We actually should’ve beaten Geelong when we played them. Port haven’t landed a punch on them all night.

Well, a lot of the crisis-deeming comes from us.

And we do it every year, and sometimes more than once.

However, there is a point to be made: every club has lost at least one game by 30+ points (bear in mind shorter quarters). The Port loss is our only such loss for the year.

Indeed, 14 of the 18 clubs have lost one of their last four games by 30+ points (the four exceptions are Geelong, Gold Coast, West Coast and Richmond).

If Tomlinson had kicked that goal, we'd have a win over a top 4 side, we'd be 8th on the ladder and playing for a temporary spot in the top 4, and we'd have a significant degree more credibility.

But we didn't, so we're not, and we don't.

Geelong are in some sort of form sadly and they don’t even have their home ground advantage to thank for it. Wouldn’t it be nice to watch your team spank two top four teams inside a week.

Selwood gets the oil treatment just before the siren at the start of games.  I figure it is so he can slide down and milk all the head high frees. 

For others the oil hinders op tackling. 

Ops should tackle and roll them around in the dirt early in a quarter to rub the oil off.

Anyone else have the sick feeling Geelong will win the flag ???

There should be one of those video fan screens for Melbourne fans to boo Rhys Mathieson.

what I do know is that the 3 if not 4 of the usual suspects will be in the prelims

That's Geelong Richmond and Eagles

The fourth spot between Port and Brisbane with Pies and Giants as long range possibles

You'd be spewing if you're a Fremantle supporter.

Taberner rightly called for deliberate. Then what appears to be a TERRIBLE downfield free for late contact.

Then Newnes nails it from 50 on the boundary after the siren.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
