If Collingwood lose, I bet they’ll blame it on having to travel.

What happened to Maynard? Nothing trivial I trust

 

I guess either way

North win. Or Pies win

Win. Win situation

No one would have picked north !

Well. Did you pick north.

Pies winning is disappointing. I agree. But seeing I did not pick north . Like 99.9% of tippers. It is sort of a win.

Foot. Hopefully it's fractured or a stress fracture

I hope it's worse than either of those.

I know we got thrashed by nth, but how pathetic by them in this final term.

They are playing a very weakened pies side & still get well beaten. There midfield should be dominating.

I'd be worried if i was a north supporter. they should be more competitive than this

North has won 17 games in 5 and a half seasons. Never won more than 5 games in a season this decade. Boy we were bad in the early 2010s. But we showed ongoing progress under Roos. North has improved this year but the benchmark is so low. They haven't gotten the return from Clarkson yet. Unless the turn the corner in the second half of the year. Anything less than 6 wins is surely a failure.

How did we lose to North? We should be beating them by 6+ goals later on this season at the G.

Daicos 16 touches. 4 contested

50% efficiency

Still the clear fav for the brownlow

Gawn $51 being the most influential player in the game

keep your bloody medal!

brownlow hasn't meant s..t all for years, theres a reason why the media and coaches rate the afl players mvp and coaches votes a higher honor

Yes Liam Jurrah was fabulous, who is the LJ to whom you refer?

His interview afterwards was interesting. Said he's happy and loves playing for Freo but failed to say the rumours were untrue or that he intends to see out his contract. I’d be worried if I was a Freo supporter.

is that why is has been renamed “Downlow” since Jab Watson won it ?

Moore? Cox? 20 others?

Did the pies just throw their jumpers in the chook pen for an hour or so?

I heard that too.

I just reckon the young fella is one of the most unpolished media performers going around so I wouldn’t read too much into anything he says.

As I’ve mentioned a few times, the only we’re getting Luke Jackson is if Kozzie heads the other way.

did they?

i don't think we'd have been keen on that deal

I’m guessing that guy is just running with the rumours at the time.

They have a solid group of kids as well, should be performing better than this. Maybe their young players while consistently good performers will never get to that elite level.

  • 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.
