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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
