Got what he deserved……

To be fair, I think Howe's IQ matches his playing number. Like most, if not all of them. Look at De Goey, for example.

    Should have been a free kick for unduly rough play, tackle had been completed when about 3 others decided to pile on.

    To me this is really a non-issue, let the players pipe up and make statements that get us invested into the game. At the end of the day, the on field performance has the last say. Players are human, not media robots.. “we were up against a quality opposition”, “we really respect them”, “they really challenged us in the 1st quarter”… how about, “we’d love to [censored] these a$$holes, they beat us twice this year now”, “we’ve got JH’s number in our sights” and, “if Cox even thinks of looking at Gawny the wrong way with those ridiculous shades, then look out!”

    Gerard Whately described it as good entertainment. A bloke being attacked, head driven into the ground, elbows and fists on his face, while on the ground defenceless, against 5 players. Yep great entertainment. Stuff the rules.

    I think we need some nastiness back in our play.

    Maynard smashed Langdon and ANB and also belted Max in the back of the head, in a spoil in our forward pocket. No free to Max of course.

    We need to get nasty and ruthless with our tackles and tackle to hurt.

    Teams need to know that we mean business.

    I think we have become nice guys, helping the opposition up off the ground and joking with them during the game. 

    Harden up guys and hit hard and often.

    That won't happen Mr Leg and you know it. That's not the way the MFC have ever played. I can't see it changing.

    Thought the Max one was blatant but of course play on.

    Big Carl, Biffin, O'Dwyer, Coles, Hughes & Grinter say hello

    And I saw Teddy Fidge rough up Millane once ... might have been at Waverley in the mid 80's

    Neitz used to throw his weight around when needed.  Even Tiger Crosswell & Zantuck

    Arguably "got what he deserved" will provide more potent ammunition than the original duck, dinner, etc.

    can’t wait to meet this [censored] in the finals…. Not the 1st time he has had a dig at the club who gave him his chance.

    I think he got what he deserved playing for this scum

    Does Jeremy see how stupid HE looks now.  Thanks to the above, guess what goes on the Dees whiteboard in the finals.

    Nice one Jeremy. 32 years old and still no Premeirship medal, and unlikely to have one with father time closing n.

      What a waste of a career - as Travis Boak said to TMAC in the Power game last year - another 'speaking too soon ' type..

     

    Our Ed got one at 25 and a half.

    If the shoe was on the other foot, you know we would demand nothing less than what the Pies dished up. well I know I would.

    He was an [censored] for saying it - and bought undue attention to himself that left him rattled and ineffective and irrelevant for large parts of the game.

    Werridee could put a team together at the rate that these names are being recalled, Redleg

    Michael Reynolds could go a bit from memory

    The present day ... Melksham, May, Viney, Hibberd (and Fritsch likes a scrap apparently) ... we could bring back Majak (I wouldn't get him riled up)

    Maybe we let VDB go too early?

    If you want to talk about Ed's words not being chosen carefully, I don't think Howe's were chosen much better. Really hope this gets us going for next time we play them for a change.

    • 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.
