Yep. When you're a defensive side that tends not to have high scores, you need to be switched on from the first bounce.

Or you know............bring in the KPF we’ve all been crying out for

 
 

What a useless farkkling midfield

Just leave gawn FF. Jackson can ruck

Don’t worry Goody and Stafford will have that aha moment with 15 minutes to go.......

 

We won’t resolve our forward line problems this season. We have regressed at an alarming rate. Brown won’t help cause the problem is a lack of dynamic movement which he is the opposite of. McDonald is low on confidence again for some reason. I’m getting sick of seeing our points double our goals and being in bad positions as a result. We make it look so much harder than we need to. Our midfield today doesn’t exist, which it is prone to. maybe sometimes we need to commit the extra number to the middle and trust the players to win it against the lesser sides. They park the bus and rely on bursting through and every time we lose this is how it happens. 


Still can’t trust this club.  Coach has failed at selection and their heads are too big.  When are they going to learn it just does not happen.  Port away next week.  Top 4 out the door. NO TRUST!

    Gotta say GWS pressure has been spot on since 1/4 time.

    They have been very good today.

    Well we outscored them that quarter at least.


    Can’t kick goals - can’t win.  
    Get back to basics MFC. 

    Embarrassing. We look second rate through the middle and up forward. Our backline is the only reason we are still in this.

    Agree. No forward pressure today and watching him he just jogs around.

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
