The best team we've had in 60 years and only one lock down flag to show for it. What a waste!

    Boys mostly try hard but we just don't have the skills or composure to choose the right option let alone execute it

    We've got 6 home games to come this season. These last two weeks will cost the club millions of dollars. 

    Won't cost anywhere near as much as the brilliant decision to offer a 6 year contract to the bloke who was one head knock away from forced retirement..

     

    They can’t do anything wrong and will kick goals from the 4th level. We can’t do anything right.


    You don't have to watch the whole game to know what was going go happen today. Turnovers in the first and mo way of ever getting back.

    No way we are making the 8. Goodwin lost this team weeks ago. Our game style, if you lose the side, it becomes evident. 

    I'm not convinced were making the 8, but this week is very different to what we've seen the last few...

    Viney needs to be dropped

    Disagree, however whilst his endeavour can’t be questioned, he is not, and never been the +A grade player that many MFC supporters think he is, ie one sided who is an ordinary kick.

    Not really, a flag is a flag I would've taken one in my lifetime 5 years ago. Just a bit bitter that we didn't get to experience it live

    Yep, that's the other ramification.

    We're unwatchable.

    Even when we win it is a hard slog but it could get seriously embarrassing.

    In 12 months time we could be irrelevant again.

    The decline is faster than the rise

    I’d be looking to move on some value whilst it’s still there. We have good talent coming through in Windsor, Pickett, Howes, Bowey, Rivers and Sparrow. I’d be looking to cash in Petracca. Gawn, Viney and May will slow down. We need to replenish our stocks.

    Perhaps Roos can come back and find another coach to hand over, strange though as Goodwin says they have hardly spoken since he took over, why is that, is it Roos or Goodwin

    we tried a bit that quarter

    awww

    so proud of the boys

    Haha that’s the new term now.


    And to think it worse because half Collingwood team are reserves players. The team is not just inept but cultural issues have eaten the core of this club out. Truly sad that many of us will never see live a premiership live in our lifetime

    We are still lacking in basic skills. Yes we are playing better contested footy, but we cannot execute simple handballs or kicks, and we have lost all ability to defend the turnover. And we are 10 down in clearances with Pies missing De Goey, Mitchell and Pendelbury!!!


    We are playing soft football.

    For anyone watching and stressing over this dross we're dishing up, i'd highly recommend you try painting something.

    Great MFCSS therapy

    How many times have we seen a score line like this. One more scoring shot  and we our six goals down.

    Maybe it is on the coaches.

     

    Also on the players.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
