We have more scoring shots and they have been shots, despite all the poor kicking into in the 50 the 2nd.  That is positive, we juts need to straighten up as the blues have been more accurate.  Thank you Smith.

Tmac needs to pull his finger out and contest everything int he 50, I dont care if he never marks it.  

 

What’s the point of having 4 x field umpires when they never seem to be goal-side between the play and the goals - blatant incorrect disposal for us missed as a result

BT is an obese, sleazy [censored]. Know from personal experience. May makes a great diving effort and he is critical saying it’s dangerous. Last week he couldn’t have jerked himself off any harder defending Maynard. 

Oooh that could have been easily an ACL, good decision by the umpire.

He said. Ump 22 and BT. 

What a combo

Pert and Roffey should be demanding heads roll from Laura kane and Andrew Dillon right now

I am sick of being nice

so blatant

 

if no joy

media statements if not - “it is difficult to escape the conclusion the afl has agenda for big clubs to be in the GF and or runs an extremely corrupt or incompetent umpiring system “

Yes - OTT but you get my drift

TMac is a game killer and they have hom next season as well!

Takes the biggest defender..hasn't been true for seasons,now he just gets in the way and crushes our hopes.

Faark! 

TMac also gets caught in no mans land in transition as well, neither at the contest nor a kick behind/in front of play. Might as well not be out there a lot of the time. I was a huge fan of his but he just cannot get into a run let alone glide across the ground like he used to.

Our problem all year has been poor starts. I’ll take this at half time any day. 

Reckon we’ll win this …

I'm waiting for the impossible hanger attempts now.

As soon as he ironed out Cripps, I told my son, Kossie won't do anything this game. His mind is now elsewhere. Hope he proves me wrong. 


Touched ball wasn't touched. What a surprise.

Tries to be the tough guy too much too.

Just get a kick first Koz.

Undisciplined.

yep no need to get into opposition face when we have the shot.   Very disappointing year

Groundhog Day. This is painful, haven’t given up but midfield need to lift big time. 

Richo is the biggest w*nker of them all.

Much better space than last week.


We need to win the fricken football and move the ball with intent. 

25 tackles to 9 that quarter.

Contest defence my @rse. Where is our effort to do the 1%’s?

So aside from not practising goalkicking at training, we seemingly don’t value tackling either.

Goody said in 2021that he hoped fans would recognise and take pride in our game plan. That was then, 2023 is recognisable but it stinks.

Shown the touch goal another five time and I still can't see the touch.

Was the soft call goal?

Had this conversation for over  18 months. And yet apparently he's still listed for next year.

Not a bad gig.

Clearances are hurting.

  • 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.
