You did well melbourne

[dazzledavey36 54,946]

i dont care what anyone sys but to me the boys did there best!! we really deserved that win but thats footy for you guys. seriously im really positive about our future! todays game gave us a glimpse. guys like sylvia, dunn, bate, PJ, davey and bell all did well. c'mon guys look at the bloke we have out. Robbo, brock, bartram, whelan and rivers.. and then u got kids like frawley, garland and petterd who are bright prospects. im very proud of melbourne and well we all know that we are not gonna make the finals but lets still get behind the boys and support them. As for ND well really i think one more year wouldn't hurt.. he does bleed for the club and without all these injurys i think we could have been a top 4 club these year but oh well. i wsh them well for the rest of the year!

Go dees!

[Adzman 2,154]

We were one good player off a win. If rivers or petterd, mclean , bartram or even a fit byron had played, we would have won!

Good to see some heart form the boys. Nice to see trapper, bruce and flash find some footy.

I thought it was a great team effort, they gave it there all, fought back well, If any supporter wasnt happy 2day they should be shoot!!!! Bad luck boys.

i am not happy so come and shoot me...

shocking decisions and shocking skill errors cost us again....

[Gorgoroth 12,955]

great effort but we lack drive through the center and go wide too often and our delivery to the forwards was again average today.

neitz needs to tell the players to clear out the 50 arc we are always too congested

[Gouga 569]

Cannot question our application today. Having said that...

WE PLAY STUPID FOOTBALL!

Awareness, decision making and discipline is clearly lacking. Our forward structure is not effective.

[45HG 1,539]

good on the boys, im proud of them, gutted, suicidal and depressed, but proud, go the boys. great effort. if that damn midget didn't pretend he was a magician we would've won. colin's mark deserved the goal. top effort.

footy is so much in the brains, as we have proved the past two weeks, attitude will make us win more than we lose from here on in, injuries or not

[mikeod 21]

We are Rivers and Whelan away from a win. Would have made the difference today without a shadow of a doubt.

Hopefully we have those two and McLean back ASAP.

Melbourne won a flag in 64 there is no well done until we get the next one. Sorry guys i am not HAPPY!

[BAMF 4,353]

im not happy either. im not as dissapointed as i have been over the season so far. but still not happy.

Not many players seem to make a lead today and we were kicking in to 1 on 1's all day.

and our kicking was terrible at that.

have a look at the stats. i bet we had a lot more kicks than the bulldogs. i bet we were almost equal in clerances.

but we still lost.

no im not happy at all. i dont think i deserve to be shot. i belive this was our year to do well and we are doing really badly.

in fact we couldnt be doing much worse.

im not accepting average performances any more.

[45HG 1,539]

how can you say not well done when we put it such an effort. we were just a small backmen from repelling so many attacks with force and direction, i.e. matthew whelan.

110% effort, cant ask for more

i agree with ya tooly, i ain't happy about the loss, but i was still impressed with the effort. At least this year we know that we will get some quality in the draft.

WELL DONE BOYS!!!!!!

IWANT A FLAG!!!!!!!!!!!

THERE ARE NO WELL DONES!!!! :

:angry:

[45HG 1,539]

so no well done for sydney at any stage for making a gf and losing by a point? you honestly saying you didnt say well done after spanking the pies at the g last year or topping the swans. good on the boys, i say that because that's the endeavour that will get us to the top of the table, for the full 26 weeks, not the first 15

In footy it doesn't matter about a game like that, it all comes down to the last week in september

[45HG 1,539]

you don't make the last week in september without effort like today

[True Believer 1]

you don't make the last week in september without effort like today

I'm soooo gutted. Hate umpires.!!!!!

BUT WELL DONE GUYS. A win not too far away !!!!....keep persevering

You forgot Whelan.

I was thinking exactly the same thing today.

Imagine if we had Brock, Rivers, Whelan, Bartram, Robbo, Pettard, Pickett all in that side...and fit!

[Elmag 5]

The sooner we start planning for 2008, the sooner we get games into Newton, Petterd, Frawley - the sooner we get our structure organised for 2008. Port did this last year and it is paying dividends - they will be playing finals this year, we won't as we would have to win 12 out of 15 to be a chance, so let the club announce what it is doing and move on (even if that means announcing a 1 year extension to Dniher's contract). The sooner this happens the sooner the club can get it right, and more than likely we'll win a few games pretty quickly.

[Guest MFC4Life]

Was so proud of the boys today. I've been watching for two decades and I can't remember a time when we have tried so hard, regardless of the mistakes or the stuff-ups. Despite the fact are 0-7 I am loving coming to see us play. I hate losing but by geez they're showing some heart, some ticker, some FIGHT and thats what I want to see.

I have a feeling our culture is turning around.

Just curious.. who do you think would have come out of today's side for Pickett to go in?

[NO MERGER 20]

Great game by the boys. They really had a red hot go.

[praha 11,240]

Just curious.. who do you think would have come out of today's side for Pickett to go in?

"...and fit". I guess I worded it wrong. Pickett is not fit, but if he was, he would be in ahead of Warnock, Ward, Brown and Godfrey. Obviously if Pickett hadnt been dropped, Ward wouldnt have come in.

[jacey 333]

im not happy either. im not as dissapointed as i have been over the season so far. but still not happy.

im not accepting average performances any more.

I can understand that.

I'm not happy we lost but i'm not disappointed cause they had a dig.

MFC kids show good signs with dunn really impressing. i knew bate and jones would be good but i was unsure about dunn.

I'm really glad i read that wrong.
