It’s very hard to watch a game when I have my view obscured every 4 seconds by “fans” carrying $800 worth of mid strength beer 

Did you get one then?

 

Good: Steven May, McVee, Viney, Petty and Lever.

Decent: ANB, Jordon, Langdon, BBB and the Melk.

Terrible: Max, Pickett, Rivers, Angus (40% disposal efficiency).

hahahahah!  You wouldn't want to sit near me Jaded.

800$   pffffff

Saints down 3 men makes it very difficult for them. We should run over the top of them in the second half. 


A few players down at half time, Petracca, Salem, to name a couple, but rapt in Woey jnr, JJ, Sparrow and Viney

We look average for mine I’ll be happy if we do enough to hold on forget winning big…

And what is Tracc doing? Is he being tagged closely?

We seem so slow. No dare or run. By the time they move the pill forward, Saints have us covered. We look so ordinary to say the least. 

Also, getting in each other’s way / not giving each other space / trusting that teammates will win the ball. Hand balling to stationary teammates. Often no overlap.

Meh .... We've looked average most of the year.

I don’t drink beer. Much less the [censored] they sell at the footy. 
Besides beer doesn’t go with the cheese platter.

The viewing experience at this ground is atrocious 

I will never understand why you bother coming to the footy only to spend half the game going in and out of your seat to drink. Like why not get drunk for free at home? 
 

 

 

Kozzie to kick six in the second half…

 

or five

 

or a couple… 😁

I didn't go tonight either. I go every week, pay $1000 in memberships, sort of didn't feel like paying more to go to to a concrete jungle and get home by midnight again.

Bring on next fri though 

Edited by layzie


We are 13 points up = total positive.

We have more players playing well than playing poorly, but the poor ones like Kozzie and Gus looking a mile off.

Love seeing BBB back.

Good to see our F50 entries looking cleaner, and our  general forward play looking organised.

After a good start, Woewodin looking off the pace.

We need Trac and Viney to stand up big time in the 2nd half.

Our reserved seats at the G are in a dry area!

It is bliss.

Not great but not bad. 10 possies, a goal and 5 score involvements.

We are top four but only because the other 14 side are very ordinary.

  • 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.
