You are right there DD Petty, May and Harmes stepped up big time along with Clayton, unfortunately there was such a big drop off from the rest of our key personal that I am still surprised that we were able to hang in there for so long. Onwards and upwards and thanks again for providing these stats that allow us to keep tabs on the team performance.❤️💙✅

    Does anyone know what the team pressure rating were in the Grand Final?

    My recollection is the Cats were hovering around the 200 plus mark or thereabouts in at least the first quarter and possibly similar in the 3rd.  Don't hold me to which quarters though.  Very sketchy based on post mortem i heard from Whately / King (SEN) on the Monday after.

    No idea where Sydney were at.  Must have been pretty low for most of the match though.

    You're welcome DZ.

    No idea how we got within cooee either.

    A credit to our defence.  Leaned on them and Clarry far too much this season and too many players seemed cooked coming into finals for whatever reason.  Even Clarry wasn't at his raging best in that 2nd one after copping the head knock.

    I reckon our form or lack thereof in that first final flattered the Swans.  The team rating was horrific.  And as i suspected we couldn't pull back enough from that nose dive the following week.

    Losing to the Lions, who i feel were the worst of the top four coming into finals (and by a fair margin), should and hopefully will be a bit of a wake up call.  Pretty sure Goodwin said he (and the FD) were going into a full review across all lines/systems etc as a result.  Looking forward to seeing some positive outcomes / changes from this prior to 2023.

    • 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.
