Suspect we may not need it if we win early games vs Dogs Lions Swans and Tigers.  But play it again Sam any way!!! 

Really enjoyed the Grundy interview with Whately …the more I hear him ..the more he impresses . Of particular interest was his comments about our training standards and attention to detail ..

Yes and the fact Hunter, coming from a different Club, was also surprised.

"If you've just joined us"

I'm so sick of his assumption that the precise moment of a massive comeback is the precise moment that someone turns on their Television set.

Dislike Derwayne intensely but this one I get.

Often you will join a telecast midway and not be updated on what has gone on before. I think they should do a recap more often

Poor Spargs spent half his time giving an injury report!  Interesting to hear a little about his "professional lifestyle".

Starts at 1 hr 11 min mark for those looking

Spargo spoke very well. I think in large part our players are humble and respectful as well as reasonably articulate (Clarry aside!)

Maybe not articulate, but I like the way he talks football. “See ball get ball”. Happy for him to continue to let his actions do the talking

Fair enough, look I don't mind a recap of the game. What I don't like is anything that man says.

Those that got it last year were offered the same for the first three games this year.

Same here he is just another Geelong mouthpiece. It’s funny how all Melbourne supporters in the media can maintain a neutral profile but others like Derwayne, Derm, Bucks, Hudson, Whately cannot. Drives me nuts.

No need to waste time talking when you have the talent of Clarry. He does all his talking with the ball.

If anything, our supporters within the media are more scathing and critical of what we as a club do.

Wow. That's a bargain then. Particularly considering who our opposition are in those three home games. Might partly explain how we've hit the 50,000 so early too.

  • 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.
