Nick Riewoldt was scathing of Dayne Zorko at half time.

Fake toughness is all that little man is.

    Wow, when we play like that, we are scary. MFC send a shiver through the rest of the comp. Love it 

    Games not over, we clearly don’t just want top 4, but top 2 as well.

    I could watch this every day.

    OK name our highest goal scorer at the end of game.

    Pretty easy to name the highest goal kicker at the end of the game....

    :roos:

    This is some statement. To travel to the top of the ladders home ground in the last round and be12 goals up at half time says to everyone..... 

     

    We are real contenders for the flag. At our best we are unstoppable.

    I'm shellshocked. That was the most dominant first half I've ever seen.

    I'd take any win from here but I'm hoping this blows out to over 100 points. I haven't seen a team look as flustered as Brisbane do now.

    They look ready to throw punches at every contest. That's exactly where we want them. I just hope they don't suck any of our guys into a suspension.

    I used to rate Zorko but seriously not just this game but lots this year he’s trying this tuff guy gig and it doesn’t suit him one bit. 
     

    And I believe David King just said where 30% better than everyone again.

    I was watching him closely last week v Saints. Stomach punches constantly off the ball. What does he think he’s contributing?

    My dog resents that statement. More like a swamp rat

    I agree. My dog’s [censored] is higher quality than Zorko and his leadership skills. 
    Also my 6kg dog is less of a little b^%ch than Zorko.

    This has been our way this year.

    Cannot let the intensity drop in the second half.

    Fagan would have told them to play on the edge. It hasn't worked. Galvanised us and they dropped their skills.

    Great team effort. Standing up for each other. 

    Playing well into the forward area. 

    Well be playing Pies in September i reckon.....

     

    hahaha, how fn sweet it is.....

    I reckon all those naysayers on here who said we'd lose should voluntarily ban themselves from 'land for a week (after giving themselves an uppercut)

    • 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.
