Gawn is playing like an [censored]. He’s angry and just making dumb decisions. 

Leadership? I don’t think so.

 

We make hard work of forken everything.
So hard to watch.

HOW MANY [censored] GOALS 20 METERS OUR RIGHT IN FRONT! jfc

 

Remember when this thread was started roughly 15 hours ago... and it was at minimum a comfortable 4 goal win.

FMD...

The concern for me is killer teams come out with the same intensity every SINGLE week.

Our performances against bottom teams proves we dont.

Ergo....we are not a killer team.

We are arrogant...lazy or complacent.

Goody should start dragging players to stop this garbage.

 

If you think we arent trying hard? surely you can see we are  

the hawks have beaten the swans and giants recently. No easy games in AFL

we will get up. Have faith

[censored] you Melbourne. Just [censored] you. Pathetic. 

Mate. Have a cuppa, you're gonna have a heart attack or something.

I don’t trust Melbourne. 

 

At this stage they are just cleaner and more desperate.  We are the reverse.  O can't find one player who's been clean and damaging with ball in hand tonight. 

Fumble fumble fumble constantly handing it back and second to the ball aside from Maxy and Lever.

This has nothing to do with the umpires.

 

100%

Wow. With one of the best lists we have ever had, and we simply won't show any intensity. Getting flogged around the ball, jogging around, and getting annihilated at half forward. 

If I see another floaty handball that puts the recipient under immediate pressure I’m gonna punch something.

Hawthorn kicking 8.0 since quarter time is [censored] embarrassment. 

Don't let anybody fool you with talk of spirit and underdogs or any other crap.

THE HAWKS ARE A VERY BAD TEAM.

I know we've been winning the important games this year (and that's great) but we will never be truly feared until we bury these teams. 


If Clarksin was coaching us he would never put up with this rubbish.  They are a disgrace, pathetic front runners 

If we lose tonight we’d have the bizarre record of no losses agains the top 8 but losing to 3 of the bottom 4.

Surely the only explanation is mental.

Neither of those teams are top of the ladder.

It was better when we were a rubbish side when all we had to lose were draft picks…

Any chance we can hit a leading target inside 50 or on the Arc???


This is pathetic. This effort is [censored] pathetic. Players should forfeit their match payments tonight regardless of the result.

The hawks are a rubbish side that are being made to look like world beaters by us. Again we are showing a complete lack of respect for our opponents. Our worst football this year has come against the worst sides. it’s very disappointing

I just dont think our effort is anywhere near last weeks game and my point was we struggle agsinst bottom sides while cats smash them. Its a fair comment.

  • 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.
