we aren't going to fire a shot in finals even if we do make it  

We are miles off late 2018.

    I know the type. Good sledger and tells good jokes on the sidelines while we are in bat. To be fair, those players are worth their weight in gold in cricket.

    Can someone tell me why we are relegated to playing in Cairns while other teams play in the comfort of the Gabba? Is there something to prove?

    Why are we trying to possess and finesse so often around stoppage YEats?

    Tap/punch/kick the ball forward or in any direction where you can see space and no opp....and run onto it.  Its wet weather footy.

    Whent 1st touch is a fumble

    Then 2nd touch is under pressure

    Rubbish half of football. Freo controlling this game. Goodwin outcoached again.

    This club is going nowhere with the current playing group and coaches. Even if we miraculously make finals, we’re not doing any damage.

    What a [censored] waste of time.

    #12 Bedford playing a match reminiscent of Tom Gillies.

    he seems slightly deranged.

    We lack the want to spread, the ability to stick a tackle or the ability for players to hold their position and trust their team mates. Playing like we are we trying to save it rather than win it?

    Reckon Tomlinson has been playing pretty well on Hogan too.

    Absolutely shanked that vital kick I50

    Do we? I’d rather some one who actually wins the football, can use it and doesn’t clout someone already over the boundary line that gives them a free.

    Dumb and unnecessary

    Yea we need a sarcasm emoji G. I said after the Pies game I thought he  was terrible and as lots frothed about his toughness.

    Please tell me that Goodwin can coach one more time? 

    This is worse the Collingwood in 2017 when we had to make finals

     

    We don't want it. We're dumb. We can't hit a target

    Bye bye Goodwin

    That Preuss rag foll tackle was a carbon copy of Frosty's vs WCE. Even to the point where he kicked it out on the full!

    Great.  

    Still doesn't change the fact he's been playing well on Hogan.

    Our disposal is completely unacceptable.  Looks like we try to go boundary throw in to boundary throw in.  They move it freely, we are fumbly and second rate.  Lucky to be so close.  Second half is make or break, boys!

    I hate the way we play under Goodwin. He must go.

    Because we are a side show and everyone other than Melbourne supporters sees it

    Also, I love this four of Lyon, Healy, Brown and Roo talking about the game.  They are really having a go, especially Garry.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
