In all seriousness, without carrying on, if this happens again next week is Goodwin gone?

Should be tonight…

My 41 week pregnant GF in labour would be a better option of Half Back than Rivers or Salem at the moment.

As they say, good delivery is all about knowing when to push forward with the momentum and knowing when to take the pressure off.

Hopefully the labour doesn't result in the nightmare rip from hole to hole like today's game has.

In a related note, the strange creature living in my wife's belly got more kicks during this game than most of the Demons did. Contrast couldn't be sharper because little one really lifted after half time.

Can you show me the way to Fumbletown?

Aren’t we there already?


11-19 free kicks.. questionable frees. However we have been terrible. Fumbling all quarters.

JFC the skills are just putrid.

 

Reverse the jersey and that's a ballup.


If we win a game this year I will be absolutely gobsmacked. There’s something terribly wrong with this team.

I’m actually curious as to what Goodwin is going to say about this. You surely can’t dish out platitudes after THIS.

Actually scratch that. He’ll talk about how good the Suns were and how we have to get better.

It’s the senior players letting us down here.

It's telling right? They don't believe or care for their coach.

He should say I am resigning, but he won't. So time for the club to man up and sack.

feels like Melbourne pre Peter Jackson and Paul Roos.

Anyone else reckon Aiden Johnson can play,??dreadful, dropped chest mark,Slow!

There’s no leadership though - how / who can make a call on the coach?

The President is confirmed as only seeing out this season.

We have only an interim CEO with the new CEO to be confirmed in APRIL FFS.

I wouldn't even say the suns pressure is elite but they are causing us to panick and become desperate with our disposals.


A ten goal loss. Someone needs to answer to this.

 

Just so many basic things we’re botching. Fumbles, tackles don’t stick…just not switched on and holding ourselves to high standards. Or even middling standards.

Underwhelming Van Rooyen, junk time goal, see you at Slthera central next week with Johhno and Fritta

  • 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.
