Melbourne ended Geelong's undefeated run in a thrilling encounter at the MCG with Bayley Fritsch and Kozzie Pickett providing a highlights package between themselves.

The former dribbled through a spectacular goal from the boundary line late in the term to decide the issue.

Oh, for the good old days.

On the assumption Kozzie, Lever and Windsor are in.....

So the only certain outs for Friday night are McVee and ANB from a team that beat the then undefeated Geelong to be 6-2 and be 4th on the ladder with the 4th best percentage, and only 1 win off the league leading Sydney.

How can you now be talked about as a bottom 2 with minimal turnover?

Yikes.

Petty was bog that day at chf - marked everything kicked to him

This was the game I thought everything was rosy at the club; didnโ€™t last many weeks when Flagmantle belted us in the Alice


We looked like contenders while the Hawks only had 2 wins. Crazy how quickly it changed.

That goal from Fritsch is an all-time MFC highlight. The rundown tackle and goal from Windsor was also an amazing moment for a first year player.

That game feels like a century ago.

Fritta's goal was magic - not just the gorgeous hockey-stick turn he achieved to sneak the skidding spinning ball it between the big sticks, but his work to get possession of the ball and keep it in play in the lead up.

Are we actually going to stand for anything this year or are we going to just go through the motions and get bent over a barrel every week without no lube?

If these so called players that want out, still want out at years end here is a plan.

Play your heart out for the remainder of the year, set the youngsters up and play yourself to another club.

Stop friggen mopping around and feeling sorry for yourselves and actually get behind the club and string some performances together.

Friday night football the streets are watching!

Damn this was a good game. Petty was awesome (how good was it to see? Made us briefly remember why we fought to keep him - which is another story in hindsight maybe... although I still think he's capable - where has he gone? Truly mystified). And that Fritter control on the boundary line and class to kick that goal. Oof, where has that guy gone, too?

We need these guys back, not the shells we have currently. That goes for quite a few, if we are to win this!

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, weโ€™ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: โ€œThen came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.โ€ Today, weโ€™re back in the same place although oneย difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, โ€œIt was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, โ€ฆโ€ย  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
