Who is Petty?

Perhaps you? 

The whole team is having a wretched night for whatever reason.

Are you a supporter?

    Petracca will never be a Brownlow medallist until he can have a half decent kick at goal. It may be too late for him though.

    If we play 3 Saturdays in a row, that covers 15 days. For example Sat 6th, Sat 13th, Sat 20th.

    The lions came with a clear plan and executed to perfection. It’s refreshing to see coaches can ask for a different method and make it work, even if it was at our expense.

    The Dees spidey senses are not tingling, but our stinky senses are 

    8 disposals between Fritta, Bbb and Petty is sad.

    Bbb back to his bon effort second game in a row.

    Tmac fwd ...Petty back goody. Na just leave it all alone. All good mate we've got this.

    Woey and the Kolt not ready yet 


    Junk time goals from a bunch of pretenders.

    Who have we beaten?

    What a poor follow up from Adelaide.

    Too impressed with our efforts there.

    Really hard to find one solid performance from our boys tonight.

    Maybe Petty with his one kick for the game.

    Just joking.

    Maybe Max .

     

    Edited by leave it to deever


    Can’t believe we are only losing by 4 goals it feels like a 100 points

    Hopefully this is a one off, everyone has the flu or were fatigued or something. Rare to have a game where everyone is bad. Bears weren’t even good we just couldn’t run, kick, handball or mark which I’m told are all key facets of the game. 

    make this our worst game of the year and we can still win the flag, have too many of them and we are junk.

    • 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.
