Chandler and Spargo are no goal sneaks.

I hope Kozzie doesn't get reported again.

He's let his mates down.

I know we don't have any options other than Schache but gee whiz it's been three years since Jackson left we replaced him with Grundy and then gave up.

Take a look at the bump. It was a ridiculous suspension. The only head high contact was their heads clashing.

I wish Yze had of hung around for a tad longer 😏

 

The degree of fumbling at ground level is a huge concern. 

I just don't think we're ready for the season at all.

Grundy played well tonight but he isn’t half the player gawny has been over the journey

Goodwin is a coach that can only deliver when everything goes his way unfortunately.

Yeah I’ve been a Goodwin supporter for the last 2 years amongst all the criticism, but I’m starting to run out of arguments against that notion

Classic example there.  Sparrow gathers... then fumbles.  Then Clarry over runs the ball.

Careful you can't say anything wrong about the premiership coach

Should be the Senior Coach right now 

GRUNDY BOG NICE ONE MFC!

We are easily the fumbliest team in the AFL

ANB and Sparrow the biggest culprits.

Grundy BOG 


Where's the Grippo boys?  Fumble city

S h it house performance.

Absolutely 

Gee, Grundy torched Max

More worryingly, we can’t even handball to a target 5m away and yet the lizard is taking running bounces all over the ground.

This team has an incredible ability to suck the life out of me

Embarrassed by an under strength Swans outfit and skills shown up in the conditions.

Not looking like top 8 material after this performance.

And losing Bowey to injury. Just the start to the season we needed.

 

Well maybe there's some truth in the narrative.

We look awful for most of the night.

Olivers not the same yet.

Chandler .....when?

Spargo...Gone backwards.

Schache...I've said enough.

Laurie....nup.

Sydney have shown what we lack.....players who can mark inside fifty.

Sparrow...never seems to go next level.

Windsor...first game.

Lever...looked rusty.

Max....a bad night.

Jvr......quiet.

  • 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.
