Fatigue incoming…………

Bombers to get the first couple of goals in the last qtr. Probably in the first two minutes.

I’ve read this book before.

    Not the first and won't be the last to vomit then laugh repeatedly when called out. It's a cheap trick, like rage quitting.

    Won't be round long, they never are.

    Let’s see how bad they want this win. The first 30 seconds and you’ll know.

    Last quarters have been our worst all year. This will be fascinating.

    I hope May roasted himself for that.

    Side note - umpiring has been noticeably rubbish this round.

    It's rubbish every round. Just consistently favours the same few teams.

    Much better quarter

    If we play like that in the last we will win easily. But what are the odds of that?

    Umpires getting involved, that was a mark for May if that was the Bombers it would have been paid.

    How about the Milkshake he’s great isn’t he!?!

    At least there was some effort and attitude that quarter. Is it too little too late?

    Need the same application in the last.

    At least that quarter was watchable. We might pull this off, but watching us is a total gut wrench.

    And well done Fritsch - to step up like that was outstanding. You too Milkshake and Spargs.


    Hat off to Trac in that quarter busted his gut. Lifted the side.

    Like the Perkins one? Clearly dropped.

    My advice. Don’t look at emoji responses. Some ppl get frills for baiting you. Frankly don’t invest to your posts on game day threads - ppl are emotion wrecks … like me..

    Was hoping so bad that we could hold out there and not have lucky break situation for them like that.

    This season is showing we fall away when faced with this situation but the what if is strong.

    Please just don't concede 3 centre clearances in a row.

    Shorter kicks = goals. Players leading up = goals. Players that can kick into F50 = goals.

    Until they pull out the 'not 15' card. Honestly, you can't beat em.

    • 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.
