Bowey started off with disposal as his number one wood. Wtf?

 

Only listening via radio.

Checked footywire stats.

Anb, Petty and Kozzie have a combined three disposals for the first quarter.

Is Fritta playing?...as footy wire has him with zip.

What's going on?

The bane of our existence, last minute goals 😮‍💨

 

Disco and Salem very good.  

Rivers and Sparrow really lazy and careless with disposal.

Also -  what's happened to Bowey's kicking this year - he always looks for a short target 20-30m kicks -  and now keeps missing the target!

Salem has no quickness on his feet.

Liability defensively.

How distant his 2021 form looks today.

Love him but the injuries & the years are catching up with him

Zero tackles from Nibbler.. Hmm that’s unusual. Perhaps preserving himself for his next club. 

This is such an insulting post. Shame on you!!!!

 

i am turned by the effort they are putting in after the week from hell. 

Anyone still think McVee is a mid?

If you want to nullify his strengths, It's the perfect position for him. 

They're going to ruin a great slingshot HBF 

Wow l thought we must’ve been 50 points down reading this

On play we should have been

4 goals for our big forwards, great return so far

Langdon and Rivers

Good lord that is horrific kicking by both

When he is on, Petty looks impressive.


Sparrow looks gone. Nasty ankle injury.


Is Fritsch a late withdrawal? He has no stats.

Tmac just looks so sketchy with ball nowadays

Not as sketchy as last year in attack.

  • 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.
