Kolt definitely back this weekend

X has to pass a fitness test on Thursday but is confident for a return this weekend

Jeffo also confident for this weekend but that means jack coz he said the same thing last week.

Koz not here. He’s not injured or ill, he’s got a family thing.

Surely he plays a game at Casey first? It would be irresponsible to subject him to the firsts.

Didn’t deter SG from playing Spargo without a game for a year. 🤬🤬

 

I’m starting to warm to this year once we have young McVee, Kolt, Lindsay, Windsor, Chandler and Langford all paying together and to a lesser degree Henderson, Culley and Sharp learning the game

Hope Jai Culley is doing well?

Tell him we look forward to him earning a spot in the AFL side when he is ready.

Please also tell Christian Petracca that we love him and total understand his anger and frustration! We all hate losing! ❤️💙

Hope Max Gawn is going ok too? He had a lot of scratches on his shoulders (from photos I saw) from the Geelong players. It seems their (claws) fingernails are as long as cats?! 🐱🐈

Interesting to put Chandler in the same sentence as the 5 others mentioned considering he’s 25.

Yeah, I’d be surprised to see Kolt straight back into the firsts. Actually, not surprised but definitely concerned.

Did they have oval balls at training or still soccer balls?

Personally would not mind a session involving concrete bags, mouthguards, grappling, 100 x 100s and to mend all wounds, Storytime with Goodwin reading "The I Love You Book"

I did tell Tracc we love him. He clearly thought I said I love you because he answered I love you too. 😅

I also told Goody we love him. Now calm down you lot, you can think a coach needs to be replaced and still love him if for nothing other than he’s our premiership coach.

Whats the mood like today GW?


Sombre feel down at Gosch's, some thrills as Max smoothers small players under him.

Gathered with kick to kick, on the whistle ran warm up and team runs.

Soccer, then goal kicking.

McVee ready, Windsor good,

Melky wearing number 8, with Petracca, on the outside of the soccer game.

Lindsay working the resistance bands, Campbell with rehab.

Goody talking to Laurie.

Mentha wants a run. Tholstrup looks ready.

Cutting the 4 o'clock deadline fine Kev. To be honest I'm not sure I care right now.

He’s giving his all, just finding his feet so threw him in but get your point.

Waiting for everyone to lose their collective shizen at the mention of the round balls coming out again 😂

A little sombre today, but that might’ve been because as they were coming across to the oval huge dark clouds appeared and it felt like the temperature had plummeted.

The boys thoroughly enjoyed a… (defibs on the ready?)… soccer match. Yep, a raucous and fun time was had with the round ball.

  • 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.
