Sorry but Max has turned really dumb this season with ball in hand in open field. 

He needs to get that handball off quickly or alternatively just bomb long up the line.  He is too slow to decide, too slow to execute.  Does he even remember he's 6' 8" or so?

At least three goals turnover due directly to corrupted umpiring.

You can see who the AFL want in the finals. 
 

What a disgrace of an organization you are running Gil.

Honestly if Goodwin stays on, and I hope he doesn’t, he has to come up with a way for us to win games when we aren’t dominating clearances. You can see the decline directly correlate in this quarter to GWS winning clearances. It’s an absolute joke.

We were struggling all quarter with clearances and CPs. Our first quarter dominance disappeared.

We defended well for the first 3/4 of that quarter but from the Lever turnover onwards we just couldn't stop them.

Had our chances (Fritsch's late miss and ANB's infuriating failure to run closer to goal before kicking) but if we don't get back on top in the middle we won't win.

Jetta is so unbelievably cooked.
I really want him to stay at the club in an off field role, but his playing days are way past him. 

Lockhart should have come in. Jetta has been cooked since last year.

Lever has cost us 2 goals with inexcusable clangers.

And two first round draft picks. Absolutely reamed.

Viney never takes the first option , he has to trust his team mates.

He's having a bit of a shocker tonight.  Just the four touches and he's been caught twice holding the ball.  One of the main senior players who needs to lift.

How many set shots has he missed this year?

It’s the MFC way. Take someone who is great at something and change it. Pickett looked like a great set shot when he got to the club also but our coaching staff have obviously tinkered with the routine

We absolutely stink when the slightest bit of pressure is put on us. Lose a few clearances and watch a lead go down the toilet.

Yeah better than last week, still not convinced.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
