Hawkins got off for smashing Fritsch as well. This club is pi$$weak at speaking out when we should. Hope Pert does something about it. We need to get on the front foot with the umps before playing in another hostile environment this weekend

The umps or the club? ??

There was a point in the game last night where I thought this guy may end up being one of the greatest footballers I've ever seen play the game.

Some great comments. I don't think we threw away a winnable game. I think we just threw away the season

I don't think I've ever been so emotional over watching a game. This was our time to step up. I love my girl. I punched a hardwood cover straight off our blinds in the 3rd when Fritsch laid that tackle in front of goal. She just laughed. Crushing. Just fn crushing. We played so well for the most. Clarry is going to be the best player this game has seen. I'm Almost in tears over this. Bloody football club

Cmon Dees grab it by the short and curlies!

I'm feeling excited and confident about this game for no logical reason whatsoever

It's like a Trump double negative!

I was right behind the line of play for that 50m penalty. Melksham ran 15m wide of the mark and lost his man by playing it safe and staying so far away from the mark. They still pinged him and he blew his stack. Gobsmacking by the umps and a goal to st Kilda at a critical stage. They need to pay these guys as proper professionals and drop them out to the country games when they fup. Why can't the media scutinise umpires form like they do players?

Me too. These are the sorts of games we seem to win each year. I.e. One game when the odds are truly stacked against us. Think West Coast last year. This is it. I reckon we'll win this week and then drop the following two games in true MFC style. Go Dees

Typical MFC game ahead. We'll win against the odds this weekend (I'm chucking some money on now). Then we'll get beaten by Adelaide who we thrashed and then the Sun's. MFC curse running strong

Rawlings?

Yeah. Not sold on his work rate and second efforts. Our forward line sucks not just on the way it comes in but also how easily it comes back out.

He's the only one. Chunk is not a super star but his disposal and kicking into the 50 is pretty bloody good. Week in week out he's a solid contributor that never goes missing.

I did during the week. I think we're a 50 50 proposition. $6 against MFC is insane

I agree. They've rolled the dice with Garlett

Yes. I reckon it's about a 30 percent chance that a good Melbourne team will turn up. Am I being too optimistic? Should all of Demonland.... form a syndicate. Bet big on Freo Buy the MFC as a busted arse franchise Coach the team via the forum The assistant coaches could hold up a big tablet with the match day thread at the quarter breaks for the players to read and adjust their game accordingly. This is the future!

Freo paying $5.80 I'm on

Exactly. Who cares if we cop a $5k fine. All publicity is good publicity and having a coach or ceo speaking up for our players, club and supporters would be brilliant. When did this last happen at Melbourne?

I watched clarry walk off the field at the end of the game. He stopped two or three times and seemed to be dry reaching and in serious discomfort. A couple of his team mates stopped and helped him to come off the field. 50m penalties for players running within 15m of the mark. Free to gut punch all day. This club needs to grow some balls and come outto protect their players and hold the poor umpires to account.

I thought it was heartbreaking. He had to ruck, rove, defend and work as a forward. He dis everything and almost carried us over the line. I really felt sorry for him on Sunday having to bust his guts while others went missing. Go Maxy

Came all the way from Northern nsw for this game. It will be a long time before I bother attending again. TMAC was crook and shouldn't have played. I watched Weed jog to contests when the Saints were rebounding. How does a young bloke being given an opportunity to prove himself behave this way? Hogan did the same. I think it's time to trade him while he still has currency. There's no second efforts by either of them. Petty was completely stuffed by half time. Down 4 key position players for the game. No wonder we lost. Umpiring was ridiculous and we should grow some balls and call it out. Casey has won 7 in a row. Is it time for Rawlings to take the Reins? Btw. I've never jumped on this forum to demand trades for players and to sack coaches but geez we were starting develop a strong team and it's now quickly collapsing to a pre Roos era again.

Thanks to those on demonland who helped on their advice with avoiding frostbite at the G. Perfect day at the G here with my partner and my mum. Cheers Brownie

Saints are paying $6. Just sayin
