I think Goody really needs to sit down with a few after tonight and tell them not to play outside of themselves. To go back to basics if your struggling. And many of them are. Let's be honest.

Traccas handballs have gone straight to a tigers player so many times.

Petty needs to be dropped. At least we have Disco to play fwd.

Sparrow too. 

And he's certainly not alone. Thank goodness we are playing Richmond who are a poor team .

Well probably win by fifty now.

    Disco's was "first goal in a game of footy"

    great cameo from bill laurey. hopefully gives him the confidence to kick on from here.

    How much of tonight has been Yze's knowledge of the team.

    Well that first half was an absolute shambles 

    But we have got the job done after half time 

    I will take it. 
    I reckon the Brisbane game spooked the Club 

    Wow 

    Petty isn’t even a shade of the guy we were fighting to keep in the off season.

    Petty needs a run with Casey. his confidence is on the floor.

    I know we can’t sub petty off but can we just take him off? I don’t care who goes on. Just take him off and put the jacket on and that’s it. 

    I have liked the way a few of our younger players have gone about it tonight 

    particularly after half time

    Yes calm down, he's only injured..

    To be fair, that doesn’t mean he’s done a 10 week hammy. I was referring to the slightly hysterical reaction at him being subbed

    Come on, It’s ridiculously obvious. Just swap Petty and Tmac back to where they were when we won a mother loving premiership

    • 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.
