Petty cant catch a cold

4 marks, 2 contested

missed another contested mark based on that horrible umpire call

Hasn’t been great but doing ok

How was that not deliberate out of bounds in our forward pocket near the end of the quarter? The Dogs played literally placed the ball over the like like in fear of further contact. The umpire was right in front of him and didn't call it. Petty rightly pointed at the ump and let him know. There's been a few disgracefully one sided and incorrect umpiring calls in that second quarter. I hope the club hits the AFL with a please explain.

How can you literally walk the ball over the line like you’re scoring a try and get away with it, yet you kick it 50m and a leg break over the line is paid insufficient intent???? Absolutely comical and it happens all the time.

How typical is that

Four marks including two contested is pretty good. I reckon he’s having a good game today. Floating down back and then presenting at half back as the outlet kick.

He's also dropped 4 or 5 he'd usually take

Typical MFC ‘almost’ game

great play then a bad kick or handball

so hard to watch

So now you can just place the ball over the boundary in front of the umpire. Good to know.

Go easy on that ump, was more than 2 meters away after all 🥴

A lot of passengers today. Big name players who aren’t giving enough. We all know who they are.

Tommy Mc keeping Darcy quiet has been huge. Will definitely get his due credit in the media.

Not if we do it. If memory serves .

Losing Gus, and Anb along with Langdon a shadow of his old self then add Oliver's sloppiness and Traccs failure to touch the ball.....this midfield is a rabble.

Pit Cully and Chin and Bowey on there.

Not like we may lose a clear win if we do.

This caretaker coach is a puppet on Goody's strings.

The sooner we get a brave coach, the better.

Nice to see Fritta back to his old self.

Rivers and KP playing very well.

Turner too.

We were pinned for one earlier in the year.

New coach is playing a Roscoe Lyon defence, just need to score a few lucky ones, going our way.

We can’t kick to forwards advantage when they are literally on their own.

Culley looks the goods

He'll be an exciting watch over the next 12 months. Could be anything. Can play anywhere.

Just hanging in there but credit to everyone so far for putting in a big effort against classy opposition.

Only first-half disappointment is Petracca's almost total lack of impact.

I’m happy for him

he has been in and out of the side but at 27 he is looking more settled Hope he keeps his spot in finals if they make it

The sooner TMac and Melksham get extensions for '26 the better.

TMac has been very good on Darcy.

Ditto !!

Dogs look cleaner and move with purpose. We're doing a lot of kick and hope stuff. If Pickett doesn't get it through the middle then I don't see a meaningful kick into the 50. Frustrations boiled over when Melksham was on his own with about 10 metres on him and all that was needed was a dink kick over the top

Petty has dropped a few bit as mentioned by others he is still giving us a target to kick to. JVR in the ruck too much and Max forward doesn't fill me with hope. Seasons cant end soon enough.

Would help if he didn't fumble evertime he touches it !!!

And Goodwin dropped TMac for about 6 weeks in which we could only manage one win in that time. How dumb was that to stuff our season?

I dont usually go out of my way to support ex players but I can't help but admire what he's done. Really happy for him

Defence has held up well. Adams doesn’t look amazing but has done a couple of nice things. Naughton and Darcy have three goals but none from actually impacting in the air. TMac should play next year.

I was actually thinking when Rivers hit up JVR on the lead that I haven’t seen that from us in so long, but it’s been more of the same since then. Not a huge fan of Melksham giving the young guy a spray, but can definitely empathize with him.

Should be way further behind TBH and that non deliberate on Busslinger is low key one of the worst decisions I’ve seen. You were right there!

Hmm half time Petracca not worth a crumpet. Honestly if that is what we can expect for the future then let him go. He must be the worst player on the ground at half time.

He has the stickest hands I have seen in a long while.

How are the doom and bloomers coping with Naughton and Darcy not taring us apart?
