Absolutely [censored] disgraceful half of football. No skill, no awareness and so vanilla. Structurally putrid. Any danger of a stay at home forward. What the [censored] is Bailey Fritsch doing taking marks at centre half back.

    At the game. Gotta be some kind of record for kicking to the oppo. Just never seen anything like it. It’s literally like they’re trying to do it. Can’t possibly continue, can it?!!!!

    It's pretty bad. I'm trying to be positive but this is Richmond.

    The cats will be watching this and smiling.

    Ooooooft yeah, we cannot play like this against Geelong or we’ll lose by 50 easy. 
     

    We look tired or something. It’s weird. There’s no zip in the legs across the ground.

    Relax people, like a cat swatting a mouse. Yes the skill errors are weird but it’s actually well in control. Big credit to Howes for holding Bolton for so long, got off the leash for a hot minute there but a 3rd quarter onslaught coming

    That is the worst half of kicking turnovers I have seen from MFC ever.

    Kamikaze corridor mis kicks! These kicks are killing us. Basically keep handing the ball back to them but when they are in space and in their corridor! 

    Guts from Fritta .

    I'm sorry but I don't think it's unfair to say ...This is the worst we have played for a long time.

    We have gone from being a top four contender to playing like a bottom four one.

    It's a big concern. We do look asleep. ( Again).

    Its not as if we are a poor team but if you watched us for the first time this year.....

    What are we doing prior to the game?

    It's pretty difficult to explain.

    Someone said it was a slop fest and it is but I want to know why 

    Last week we said fatigue. This week it will be the bye 

    But there is something wrong.

    Trac, Viney and May not showing any leadership.

    Yze has put together a game plan against us & it's working.

    He knows how our players operate & being around Melbourne knows he we can also crumble

    Has anyone ever seen so many turnovers?  Kicks DIRECT to opposition players.  
    Eyesight? Jumper clash? (didn’t happen way back when covered in mud). 
    Execution WILL kill us today and for the season.   


    Been feeling this for a while but tonight it has come to a head......we are so f$#@ing boring to watch.

    Just what I was thinking. It’s almost funny.

    We've given them a huge sniff.

    No excuses re three matches in thirteen tonight.

    This is as bad as we've played since the 2019 horror show.

    We are a risk to lose tonight, honestly we deserve it. Did these premiership coaches actually prepared this group for tonight? Or did they think we would just win by default? 🤢🤢🤢

    All going to plan, folks. 

    I wouldn’t be surprised if we do eke out a win here and yes they’ve thrown everything at us but if we were as good as we’re supposed to be we should be able to control the ball under pressure instead of turn it over in dangerous positions time after time. 

    Decision making has been atrocious.

     Loose players not spotted. Pretty ugly from up here.

    May, Rivers, Lever, Gawn in our top 5 disposals. Hello midfield

    It's the turnovers under next to no pressure that are killing us. Beating ourselves right now

    Don’t worry, this is made for the super sub Bailey to come in and look like a million dollars. 

    Windsor kicked two perfect passes to tigers. Petty and Oliver a bit disappointing. 
    Thank god for May, Lever, Gawn and ANB.

    I am sick and tired of Goodwin letting this happen over and over. Where's the physical and mental prep for these games?

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
