I’m at work so couldnt watch, but looking at the scores I’m guessing terrible is the word of the day.

And people were bemoaning Port's win making top 2 a tough ask. We are so far off that level.

The Italian National Team would be proud of that effort by GWS - a big ol' park the bus and get them on the rebound. I know it doesn't help us, but I HATE when teams do that. We lost that game, GWS didn't win it. Kick just a few of those opportunities we had and the game would have been over at 3/4 time given the rain.

Fingers crossed we can kick a winning score.

Got what we deserved. So predictable in play and outcome. 

Agree.

Play skilless players and get what you deserve.

Great coaching too, ever heard of a goal keeper in the wet, Kingsley has.

And what did we do to overcome that tactic? Our game day coaching belongs on the G….at half time for the aus kickers

I know the conditions were slippery, but if that had been a match  between two struggling teams in the VFL, you would still have described Melbourne's forward line as pathetic. Brown past it, Smith below par, Melksham now just a journeyman, Langers and Hunter ineffective, Pickett charging about aimlessly, Harms a liability, Gawn-Grundy mix not working, and to cap off all the woeful goalkicking Viney missed a straight-forward set shot which would probably have sealed a win. Most of his teammates could have learned a lesson from nuggety little Bowey on how to play wet-weather football.

Goodwin's attacking plan A: bomb it in long to a heavily congested pack.

Goodwin's attacking plan B: bomb it in long to a heavily congested pack.

Goodwin's attacking plan C: bomb it in long to a heavily congested pack.

If Fritsch is out for an extended period, we are seriously in danger of missing finals altogether.

Let us pray Oliver is fit for next week.

We have one of the most disfunctional fwd lines in the comp.

I thought they'd clean it up by now.

Its getting worse.  Forget the 4 now. Every side knows theyre a chance against us.  Finals are no guarantee now we' ve thrown 3 games.Need atleast 4 wins with that fwd line?

No more f###g Alice Springs home games. Scrap it if you dont want to lose members.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
