Worst defensive performance I’ve seen since 2017. Just appalling. Bring mouth guards to training and see you at Port Melbourne for a pier jump

    Viney and Oliver aren’t as good as they once were Max is getting too old now and we have no forwards.

    Premiership window officially closed.

    How about we drop the Narrm shirt & drop the woke [censored] / sorry I'm meant shirt

    For all the old MFC supporters we are actually the MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB circa 1858. We always welcome our first nation players. I played in the U19's but I don't

    And please can we offer a monster contract to get Harley to the MFC

    Oliver has some trade value

    Please don't bother responding with the normal negative leftie [censored] because I don't read it, nor respond 

    Our record as the other name is pathetic. Get rid of it

    Sometimes you get games where one team is on the up and the other on the down. I don't quite think this is one of those but it could be if we aren't careful. Teams are getting better

    Goodwin should be first in with Stafford.

     


    MOST DISASTROUS LOSS SINCE 1980-81

    I don't think your negative.

    This is a game against third last.

    We had the chance to be third top.

    But we didn't want it.

    I can't see us winning a flag.

    Not because we lost but how we lost.

    We have a midfield that hasn't shown up for quite a few now and without Lever apparently no backline and definitely no forwards other than Fritta and Kozzie.

    It sure as heck isn't Petty, Brown or anyone else. 

    We will be lucky to stay in the eight.

    I'm sorry but we all know it's true.

    This team is shadow of 21 and even last year.

     

    It may be time to rethink and plan ahead.

    Use this season to develop the team of the future. 

    That includes what are we doing with our coaching staff (starting with the Ruckman who is training our forwards).

    I have some hope in our yourn guns like JVR, Taj, Windsor, McVee, Kozzy, Rivers.

    Maybe it's just the end of the road for our 2021 players like TMac, BBB, Petty (if his head is already in Adelaide), Salem.

    We could use some young talent in the midfield. Max is also starting to look past it, and understandably so, he's carried this team since 2015.

    It's gonna be a long season.

    Take that  🤦 off your eyes and watch the game @whatwhat say what.

    Ray Charles could see the game more clearly than you do.

     

    Well we can all say we were watching the day our premiership window shut. It’s been a great ride but we aren’t a top 4 side. Thanks for 2021, see you all in another 57 years…

    Our percentage has dropped from 121% to 113%.

    This is a horrific performance and will undoubtedly raise questions.

    I mean we lost 4 finals in a row. I feel like that was far worse personally.

    Worst thing about lever being injured is that we cannot sub billings 

    Billings is not even in our worst 3 players

    Time to play Jeffo

    Anyone.

    If Petty's not in the backline he shouldn't be playing next week.

    Although he looks like he'll struggle there.

    He's in a serious slump and I don't think we can continue to ignore it.

    How do we constantly play pathetic football against the bottom teams? There are absolutely no excuses for such a pathetic game from us. 🤬

    Good bye Melbourne. That was the most pathetic performance. The window is officially shut

    Goody go and get knotted , he's a junk coach . Time to find another hobby.

    I’ll have no problem with any talking head putting a line through us after this performance. Absolutely abysmal.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
