Need more like him in the current side.. Whilst you can't take players out these days you need aggression.. Look at hawthorn with Hodge etc have this aggression ...

We need perspective also ... Comparing the 2 teams Port had ave of 47 vs 30 games lowest in the afl that's around 2 more seasons of experience .. We continue to lack exp players & the up & down results are to be expected. The positives are when we are winning this year we look great & you can see improvement will continue

Reality is we have the least exp team in the afl... 30 games vs 47 Port + finals exp ... Some the posts here are ridiculous!

Perspective people .. Port have 47 ave more games than us & ups & downs are expected? What annoys me the most is playing our home game away! Understand Indegenious round etc but is this a game we sold? Question is there no more home ground advantage???

Expected .. Positive signs didn't roll over & 5 goal loss was about right.. Missed some easy shots could have been closer .. dogs prob finish top 5 ... Consider games of our midfield vs thrs

Honestly if he leaves for home factors may as well desolve the draft as its a joke.. Completely makes a mockery of it as it was designed for clubs to recruit & build a list.. Not develope players so clubs like freo, swans etc can walk in & get a ready made gun! Keep on saying at least the Epl et can sell players which allows them to go & buy a bunch of players ..

Very poor decision today & also the game against Hawthorn! I can't understand umpires wanting to pay such soft & [censored] free kicks .. I also believe umpires just favour the clubs sitting higher up on the ladder...

Gotta learn to win on any ground....... Agree though we should be playing all of our home games & the G .. Can't understand why were playing @ Etihad

Epl a lot different they buy players & lower leagues like championship is very strong along with football academies their kids are developed to play at the level.. Afl drafts kids from U18 comp to develop them to afl

If there was ever a story of David vs Golaith this a story worth talking about & one which gives smaller clubs in any code of sport that when you get commitment,desire,for one another & teamwork all based on one common goal not dictated by big money transfers or greedy players but a club which went to their players during the transfer window to go after a big name players to strengthen their squad, the players replied no as they had something special a chemistry that can't be manipulated by money but a common desire from players who were never big names but were willing to bust there guts for the jumper and believed in one another! A team in its 132 yr history never won a championship so no ethos of success & fighting relegation last season! This is the EPl the richest & toughest league of the world with 38 home & away not to mention FA cup, Carling cup & euro champions league play offs .. Leicester FC spent 58 million pounds vs Chelse 205 mill pounds to win 2014/2015 championship throw in teams like Man U , Man city , Arsenal all spending around the same! I hope this inspires the smaller clubs in the AfL which had seen a domination by 4 clubs in the last 10+ yrs either winning or playing in a Gf & of course this can be possible for the MFC that it can be done!

Great to see supporters like you who don't buy memberships!

Some of the posts on Petracca .. Honestly we want a 1st gamer after a knee reco to be a champion & rack up 40 poss & win the game for us!

Not surprised by the result .. Short week bewtween games & players got ahead of themselves .. It's the expected journey of a developing team.. Should forget saints lost by 3 pts to Hawks & should have won! Some posters on Petracca FFs .. What are we expecting ftom a 1st gamer after knee reco??? Was never & shouldn't be expected to be a game changer ...

Great win & great signs... On a different note .. Very poor by ch 7 not show the full pre game of the Anzac service .. They have apologised but opportunity lossed for people to pay their respects on tv who cannot attend game

Petracca not ready yet .. Give him another 4 games .. Make him hungry to play .. But still needs match fitness as its a huge step to afl level!

should mfc supporters be happy or angry having to watch great passages of play & compete against a quality like North... Only to put up with garbage from the ESS game?? The test will be next week, which team will turn up?

Nothing further from the truth! Whilst I'm not a real fan of him the truth is the truth.. This is were our footy club needs to be at & yes the list has changed & lets hope the younger players coming thru will develop into the mental hardness required to be competitive & succesful.

Self inflicted for all the reasons which have been posted on demonland during the last decade! On that looking at the competition the AfL have failed to provide an even competition with their equalisation policies... Since 05 = Hawks 4 flags & 5 gf Cats 3 flags & 4 gf Swans 2flags & 3 gf wc 1 flag 3 gf filth 1 flag saints 2 gf freo gf

Has not earned it yet... Have we learned nothing over the last decade people!

Whole thing is a joke & overreaction to a kid playing in his second yr in the toughest position! Get real people he's reaction is frustration & to be expected.. Coaches will assist him in working through it....

Part of his development & maturity .. FFS expectation on a kid in his second year playing at FF is ridiculous! People forget he actually was the reason we won the week before! Plenty of other experienced players we can blame!

GWS beat the Cats..... Its all about attitude & this is the craziness of our team that they can beat quality. & then roll over to poor sides FFS!

We lost the game after the win last week & during the week... Too much talk & back slapping a nemesis of the MFC!

Don't blame mate.... As a mfc member for 19 yrs & what we have over the last decade I still shake my head at losses like yesterday .. How players come 1/2 switched on to play like that after all the list & coaching changes is beyond me! I question our leadership group & coaching somewhat to all the backslapping & winning 2 in a row etc but it's the playing group responsibility to to turn up & play FFS ..

We lack strong leaders who can hold teamates to account
