Yikes. Bevo has lost the plot tonight.

Anyone else catch that presser? WTF!

 

One of the worst press conferences I've seen.

Insulating a journalist for reporting facts, and questioning him because it came from a leak.

A horrible look.

Tried to throw him out of coach meeting. Bevo said it was his loyalty to MFC  because Morris heard of Jason J  was out 10 minutes before the game.Tom Morris basically laughed at him.

It was so good being back there watching this team. Seriously, Dogs got a run on for about 15 minutes and managed to kick 8 somehow. I thought we managed to stem the tide about 15 minutes into the second quarter and managed a couple of goals to be well within striking distance at halftime.

Trac’s two-way running was unbelievable from ground level, what a performance by him.  
T Mac in defence stood out big time, some great closing speed and big spoils, thought he very good.

Above all, what a mature outfit we are witnessing. With all the reshuffling after Salo and Lever a late out that was a very impressive performance.

I didnt really care about the win till I saw Chopper Beveridge blame a journo for Doggies not being good enough. [censored] Bevo [censored] the Doggies. It was a late withdrawal for Gods Sake. Grow up F$%%Wit

Apparently it's also follow on from Gardiner being out if the GF, which Morris apparently broke. That's why Bevo said two games and both were Melbourne.

Yep.

Truly shocking.

Woeful for the dogs and will dominate the news about this game now.

 

One of the most remarkable press conferences I've ever seen.

Toys well and truly ejected from the pram.

Whinging about the McDonald's ball blocking the sponsors on his shirt (despite them covering the wall behind him) then that gutless attack.

Only question is how big a penalty he gets from the AFL

The more I digest that out burst from Beveridge the worse it is. Tried to say Tom has a conflict due to growing up a Dee's supporter, he was just reporting info.

 

Then to play the mental health aspect when again all Morris did was report team lineup news. 

What do you think that attack could do to Tom's mental health bevo , disgusting

Took us a while to sort out our backline after Salem went down, but we were settled by 1/2 time.

Adjusted well in the 2nd half. Liked Smith’s game tonight (reckon he would’ve done well on Naughton). 
 

Herculean effort by Trac. To get us back in the game……put the team on his shoulders and just wouldn’t accept us losing.

We may have another one in Bedford. 

Put a 10 year deal in front of Jacko.

Max…….. stand and deliver.

Bang, bang , bang , bang

Thought Tom Morris handled it well. Didn’t take a backwards step and wasn’t standing for Bevo asking him to leaving the press conference. 

Absolutely. Bevo directly attacking him asking if he thinks that Fox are proud of his journalism and he responds with 'I'm just doing my job, they back me 100%' was great.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0
