2x 50 meter penalty goals. One was there one was a disgrace by the maggots.

Why do we do this?

On top of all the bulltish we have to cop from these cheating umpires involvement in the game.

We also don't have any sort of composure at all in front of goals, if we had we would be winning that game.

    What was Max thinking with that last kick? I’d love to know what May said to him?

    Not too bad thanks GWW! All of the numbers are heading in the right direction, but the chemo/immunotherapy is making me feel like [censored] and draining my energy resources. Thanks for your concern… greatly appreciated!

    With you HT. Stay positive, its all you can do . Treatment and care has progressed so much.

    If you need a break in Beechworth to recharge,let me know. We have a cottage Lochwood Cottage AirBNB and have offered to Dees as aprize in the past.

    ======================

    Beechworth? I have a couple of friends living there and one was going to organise a gig for our band at the Beechworth pub. If you ever run into Steve Burrell or his partner Debbie Healey or a musician (one of Australia’s best guitarists who used to work with Slim Dusty) named Jeff Mercer, please say hello.

    Sorry disagree. Its the composure of Pendlebury and Sidebottom V Clarry and others in the heat. And poor decisions and kicking. Should be proud of the effort. May was lucky Max didnt floor him. He is the GOAT. Dont blame him.

    This.

    We are our worst enemy.

    I hope May gets dropped. Going Gawn after the siren for his missed kick. That’s not the love Melbourne plays with. Bring back TMac.

    What the hell is wrong with you, did you watch May today?

    Max knows he f’ed that up and he knows May knows no other way than to say how it is, at the tone in which he’s feeling it. They’re big boys. They’ll be fine.

    May was outstanding today by the way.

    100%

    May was wrong but the guy played his heart out. Show he cares. Seriously we butchered that and it been happening for years. Other than bottom teams how many close games have we won.

    We should have won that game, and this isn’t an excuse - but that was incredibly suspect umpiring all day

    Some things we could have done better ....duh..

    Some chances could have been taken better...

    Hindsight is marvee eh...

    Simon you did well. A few players 🙄 might want to watch a replay and ponder. Some might just want to stfu.

    But my take away....well done Dees.

    Go shove a carrot up your arses umpires.. what a [censored] joke you lot are.

    You can't get stuck into a team when they play with that level of commitment…they were just more efficient in front of goals …plus they benefited from appalling umpiring (I rarely blame umpires btw) …Lack of a key tall go to forward cost us again

    A million times, go [censored] yourself May

    An absolute disgrace. I was already livid at him for screaming at a first year player in Lindsey after that 50m penalty and then he has a go at the greatest ruckman of all time for a bad kick in the last 30 seconds. He can go and get [censored].

    Lindsey dropped his head after that spray and continued to make mistakes. As if he needed an over the top verbal spray from a senior 'leader' player.

    Bravo.

    We were exceptional today.

    Yes we probably lost it ourselves but would have won had the umps been a little impartial.

    Proud of the MFC today.

    On the train home from the game: that was a hard one to take. Boys played very well: a couple of brain fades at the end was all that was in it. Langdon did a great job on Daicos, especially in the first half. The umpiring most definitely had an influence on the game, but not the sole reason we lost. Pies just that bit cleaner and savvy - they were lucky today.

    All in all, a great effort and once we get cleaner use, we’ll be thereabouts.

    The club remains silent on it though though so it mustn’t be an issue?

    They have to as do the media. The AFL control the narrative

    Keep kicking them soccer balls lads.

    Only 4 players stayed back for goal kicking practice on Tuesday.

    Kicking efficiency is pathetic for professional AFL players.

    Culture. Culture. Culture.

    Umpiring needs to be investigated by the AFP

    7 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

    Langdon on Naicos ‘worked’ but I’m not sure it ‘worked’

    They were just cleaner than us with the ball in hand

    Tend to agree.

    While Daicos was mostly ineffectual, tagging him took out the run and carry that Langdon usually provides.

    Robbing Peter to pay Paul I guess.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
