All over. Thanks for nothing. Midfield a disgrace. Forwardline non existent. Trash. 

boo   shocking loss

Should never, ever lose games like this. 

We're not ready

 

 

Anyone who reckons the umps have screwed us is kidding themselves. You play 1 qtr, what do you expect?

Trac, Oliver and Viney were ****house. Hunt should be dropped. [censored] decision to not bring in another tall.

Harsh .. what about the 3 players who snapped wildly and missed. He was running his guts out unfortunately he didn’t know what to do with it pass or have a low % shot at goal. Wish he backed himself and had a shot

This is on Goodwin, not being proactive. Who is kicking our Goals Goodwin?

Apparently we have great defensive structure. I’m sure you need to also know how to play when you have the ball as well.


HQ be very happy. #freekickbulldogs be on top tomorrow night and spots 7/8 both up for grabs. Margetts can go get [censored].

You cannot just hand the ball back to the opposition three times mate, miss kicks are exactly that.  He has one skill and that’s run fast

Umps were horribly inconsistent.  They were caught several times and the Dees got no rewards for tackling

The team going hardest at the ball gets more free kicks, that was bruise free football for three quarters.


Well great to get back to the Gee, but that was it we were never really in it. They outplayed us most of the game particularly in centre clearances. Our lack of a tall marking option killed us in the end and forced players to try and do to much which resulted in heart breaking turn overs. Boy was it cold as well, our midfield had its worse game ever …!!!!

That was putrid. Pathetic selection. We are on the eve of playing the best teams in the comp and we don’t know what our forward line looks like. Kozzy was pathetic again. Neale Bullen back to be being Neale Bullen. Spargo being used as a lead up and no one stays front and centre. Hunt made some real blunders, but at least he took the game on. Had we of had BBB at FF he would have been able to kick to a target.

  • 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.
