Carlton’s predicament is worse than the Neeld era. At least we knew we were [censored] and had no hope or expectations. Carlton conversely, are a decent list, but give their fans hope every week only to be ripped away in literal minutes. There are far more pressing matters in the world, but it must be literal hell as a Carlton fan. 😂😂

Well played Pies and Naicos. Suck [censored] Carlton. 31 years. Tick tock….

What a night of meltdowns again. Blue Abroad and The Jumper Punch are must listens. 😂

Blooze radio is on full blast now. I love it.. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I don’t care if it’s Collingwood. Carlton and their fans deserve all this. Scum club.

Blooze radio and Andy Maher are already wrist slashing. 😂😂😂😂 COME ON PIES!

Tbh, just back in forward line regardless of who comes in. Even if Melksham isn’t injured, Andrews that good so it doesn’t necessarily mean we have the silver bullet. He would always be on the move, on the attack so collectively, the mids need to be smart with ball delivery, and the forwards just need to just as proactive. Can’t allow Andrews front position. Mihochek is the key because his work rate and leading patterns inside the forward 50 has always been an underrated part of his game. I reckon onus will go on him to lead the forwards out on the field.

This club has a history of serving up [censored] like this. Remember losing late in 2020 against lowly Sydney with no Franklin, Mills and Heeney in Cairns with finals on the line? I want to make it clear I don’t mind losing as long as we lose within reason, but to serve up that dross against a side down on confidence and allow them 28 scoring shots from 52 inside 50’s is laughable. I don’t care that we are 5 games into a new regime, to lose to Essendon by 7 goals is unacceptable.

Don’t like to admit it, but St Kilda are a pretty good side. The way we beat them and then to win in similar fashion against Gold Coast makes losing to Essendon by essentially 8 goals is just utter garbage. I’m still in shock how we lost yesterday.

Spot on, mate. Losing is to be expected, but to use “new coach” or “new system” as an excuse for getting thrashed by Essendon is weak and naive. We always knew there was going to be ups and downs, but the expectations was the hope that the “downs” would come against the top quality sides like Brisbane or Fremantle, but not against sides like Essendon- sides that are literally on their knees and on a 17 match losing streak. We have shown we can be a brutal tackling side as evidence against St Kilda and Gold Coast, but to your point about the lack of effort and pressure, to allow Essendon to score every 1 in 2 entries is an absolute disgrace. What stings is, we are still seen as a joke throughout the league with performances such as this. There is no brutality or fear whatsoever with this club.

Lmao, you can just see it now, Curnow will kick 6 straight against us in 3 weeks time.

Lmao, Tottenham condemned to 18th this morning against West Ham, a side I hate as much as Essendon and Dees losing and struggling against a side they should beat. Story of my life.

“Big picture” “context” “new system” Blah, blah, blah…. That was straight up garbage, no matter how you try and spin it. I could cop getting belted by Fremantle, but not Essendon, at least with their current form and predicament. An absolutely lazy and arrogant performance today that lacked so much defensive application and accountability. To beat St Kilda and Gold Coast in such fashion only to submit to Essendon in such a way that allowed them to score 28 shots on goal from 50 inside 50’s is so [censored] disheartening as a fan after a very positive first month of football. Like, wtf… McKay suddenly turned into prime Scarlett and May looked like Matthew Lloyd of 2000.

I can accept losing but what we saw today from this gutless playing group is just an absolute disgrace. This is an Essendon side on their knees dispatched by every opposition they have faced so far and are equal last with 0 wins and we dish up that kind of [censored]? They scored 1 in every 2 entries and our structure defensively was absolute [censored]. Our end to end ball transition, specially from stoppage was even worse. McKay was made to look like prime Scarlett today. What makes matters worse is, Essendon saw us as an easy kill and an “opportunity” after the start we had. If that doesn’t speak to disrespect or the lack of fear factor Melbourne FC possesses, I don’t know what will. We are still the laughing stock of the entire competition.

Spot on. This club historically has a knack of doing the most dumbest and embarrassing things. How we dropped 2 games to Carlton in ‘06 when they were genuinely wooden spoon [censored] which cost us top 4 still sh*ts me to this day. It’s little wonder why clubs and the wider AFL do not fear or respect us. 40+ pt belting. Unforgivable.

Of course that dumb cant McKay is suddenly prime Scarlett. 😂🤣🤡
