BT - “ANB was lucky”…I think it is time to turn down the volume.

He's incredibly insightful around the intricacies of this match.

He's mentioned look at all those blue beanies about 5 times.

    Bad kicking = bad footy

    Most of the misses (that made the distance) have shanked to the left.

    Instruction from here.... aim for the right hand post.

    P.S. can the Magpie army pls start chanting.... we might kick straighter (training background effects)

    It’s in our hands.

    Play a bit smarter and kick straighter we win this.

    Just don’t think we’re that smart.

    Completely shut down their run and carry just so inaccurate.

    Should be a clear 3-4 goals in front.

    Friggen let them off the hook.

    Kozzy should be asigned to him on kick ins Nick won't go if he is near him.

    That is correct.... and why you dont have Spargo on the mark for any of his kick ins.

    ALL THE LITTLE THINGS!

    Apart from Fritsch no forwards. Kozzie is a real worry - has done nothing for weeks. 

    If only he did not go for the mark of the century every time.

    My early take - whatever happens today, I've seen enough to think our style of play will hold up better than the Pies in a final.

    David King’s love for Collingwood needs to be called out by someone. It’s becoming weird at this point lol

    Kozzie has been rubbish for weeks. His constant mark of the year attempts cost the team multiple goals every week. It’s a real problem and the coaching staff need to get to work with him or send him to the VFL to find form. Playing a man down today with him out there. So frustrating as he can be a match winner and has the potential to be one of the best players in the league.

    They’re more skilled and their defence is too good for our attack (such as it is). On the turnover they look incredibly dangerous, we look like we we’d be lucky to score. That’s very simply the story of that half. We’re in it, but playing as ugly and fantastically inefficient as we are (which is now in our heads), can’t see how we pinch it.

    Same old story. Forwards are [censored] except Frisch & kicking bad 2nd year in a row against them. Made that Spud Cox look like a champion because Grundy refused to man him up. Grundy not worth the money he is being paid.

    I’m actually ready for Kozzie to be dropped to the VFL. Just all at sea with the way he is playing and needs to realize he’s not above team play. So many opportunities for him to be at the fall of the ball but he’s no where near or worse trying to take mark for the year about 10m from where the ball actually is

    Looking like he's being SEVERELY overpaid this season for his output.

    • 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.
