Game over. Umpiring is a [censored] disgrace, but we missed our opportunities.

We desperately need to improve our goal kicking accuracy. We never kick more goals than points and it’s directly costing us games now.

This game is over. Injure as many dogs players as you can and stay uninjured.

    FMD.  Salem held without ball - no free - goal to Dogs who just cannot miss

    Our forward disposal is just disgraceful.  Thanks Goodwin Williams and Yze 

    We will win this.

    We look awful. Viney Langdon Harmes Salem Spargo ANB giving us absolutely nothing. 
    Once again relying on too few to do too much.

    great we give away another goal in the last minute - great defensive football

    they have 10 scoring shots to our 9 and lead by 19 - brilliant. Gotta love our forward coach.

    tough conditions, but we are nowhere

    Not a chance in hell we get close to winning the flag 

    we don't have enough outside class

    Been saying it for years 

    Not to mention our forward line is trash

    Time to start injuring them to compensate for the unfair umpiring.

    Move onto next week. We cannot win this.

    Typical shizen goal kicking and the umps have 100k on the doggies

    Yep. All over. Disgraceful umpiring, rubbish football. Not within a paddock of finals-worthy intent.

    Don't believe the stats our mids are getting smashed, our forwards are woeful.

    [censored] goal kicking........AGAIN

    There is no question which team has dealt with the conditions better and the best team overall.

    The scoreboard absolutely reflects that.

    Umpiring not good but not the difference.

    We will see what our players are made of after half time.

    When TMac is quiet we struggle big time. But the umpiring and missing 3 sitters we coud be still in the game.

    our goal kicking is our downfall unfortunately we lack skillful kicks like Breust for Hawks

    First off our kicking for goal is what’s made us be 21 points down. BUT FAIR BLOODY DINKUM THE UMPIRES MIGHT AS WELL BE WEARING BULLDOGS UNIFORMS. THEY ARE THROWING, THEY ARE BEING TACKLED BUT DON’T DISPOSE OF IT, THEY ARE BEING GIVEN AN ARMCHAIR RIDE THIS ENTIRE MATCH. Chalk at least two goals against the umps. 

    On our side, we have to take our chances. 0.2 from Brown isn’t only disappointing, it’s deflating. Not just that he misses but that they are supremely gettable kicks, you would expect ANY AFL player to kick it let alone a FF who’s job it is to do exactly that. We actually had quite a bit of territory and decent opportunities but yet again butchered them. We have regressed back to what we did most of last year. 

    Worst part is, I’m still in hotel quarantine after watching us have they great run earlier this year and I’m genuinely wondering whether it’s impossible for Melbourne to be a decent team while I’m in the country.

    Seriously if BBB doesn’t kick a match winning bag in the second half he needs to be dropped.  Paid the big bucks and hasn’t looked remotely like kicking either of those set shots.  
    Those misses are just totally and momentum killing

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
