Sweet mother of god how I wish this was last quarter. 

Nah man.
We're watching a beautiful thing here.

 

I see it but I don’t believe. Richmond are still good enough to win this. 
 

Also umpire #22 is a dead set [censored]

Deliberate my fat a r s e. 

Such bollocks. A 50-odd metre kick out of defence with half a dozen teammates in that direction. Umpires trying to manufacture a Richmond comeback.


Why were so many happy about Melksham playing tonight.

Im sorry to be negative but he has not troubled the scoreboard and kept out a man who kicked SEVEN in the vfl.

I was happy when he was called up 2 weeks ago but he did little. 

Last week he was average but back to his old self today.

He is not hard at the ball and is very slow to turn.

Im sorry but hes just not our best 22 by any stetch.

Richmond is still good enough to turn this around. Every entry inside their forward 50 is a goal out of their [censored].

We have to not drop even 1% of our intensity. 

C'mon boys finish it strong. 

Rivers could well be our most important player from that draft, what an absolute rock.

Salem has been monumental. I'd have re-signed him for 50 years! 

One of the most dominant performances since Max Gawn last week.


Stuff me, stop knocking the umpires. They make mistakes, just like players. Agreed, not the best night for the umps but really, is THAT what you are noticing?

The pressure, the run, the belief.

Go boys, bring it home.

Our structure and game plan is literally working perfectly. One more Quarter of it and it will be like bowling the perfect game as far as im concerned.

One of the best Melbourne performances I have seen, never seen our team so desperate and never seen such gut running from us in my 40+ years of watching 

Not done yet. Gotta finish the job

Absolutely LOVING our pressure. Such team first play and contribution across the teamsheet. One qtr to go. Keep it up!

  • 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.
