From the Magpie Bigfooty forum..... "Why do they get the home game each QB? That's BS time to get back to being ruthless Pies and give knowone nothing...." (sic) I can just imagine the neanderthal typing that through his gritted tooth.

Im gonna watch the [censored] outa that replay.

Well, game isnt over yet but MFC cant possibly complain about its supporters saying "here we go again".

Nice shots thanks.

Just saw this on the MFC twitter. Melbourne FC‏Verified account @melbournefc 1h1 hour ago More "We want to play our best footy come Monday and the result will take care of itself," - @nathan2jones Nobody could deny that the players read Demonland, and have finally got the message that we dont want to hear the cliche "we are preparing for their best" any more. Now to back up the words. Im pumped for a win on Monday.

No, he thinks the crowd will be half a million......

i called it that as it is on our website, but you are probably right.

Hogan officially ruled out of QB. http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2017-06-06/no-queens-birthday-return-for-hogan Could still be foxing i guess*

Needle exchange programs are only that in name.. I work at a hospital and can tell you that we have not had a single needle exchanged in 2 years. Filthy users drop them where they use them and just come back for fresh supplies. Great for their health, but stuff the innocents who come across the used ones hey?

Poor bastards cant take a trick. I seriously feel for the average copper who has to confront the sh1tbags of society on a day to day basis, only to have complaints filed against them for offending some poor druggie. Seriously, who would wanna be one nowdays when the force had gone from upholding the law to upholding the peace. Command seems FAR more concerned with using wet lettuce leaves when the bloke actually confronting society's dirt would love to pull out his/her batton and smash some of these crims around the head. Remember the pics of rows of coppers standing still while having water and (probably) urine thrown over them during the G-something-or-other meeting in Victoria a while back? I would have lost my shyt at management for allowing that to happen. What a great way to destroy your employees morale and confidence in the bosses. Lets also remember how the front line guys at the Lindt seige fully expected to be blown to bits when they stormed the place but still went in without hesitation when upper management FINALLY got the message that softly-softly wasnt working. Leadership (including the wigs) need a clean out, and a serious rethink of how the law is enforced. Until i know what rules the guys were shackled with, i woulnt be criticising anyone involved in this incident. End rant.

Yep, i agree with this. Wasnt sure he had any real weapons, but the kid is a goer who is gradually learning where to position himself. Love his workrate and tackling. Give him a decent run at it and i think we might be surprised.

Credit to ANB in this play as well. Obviously Gingerfreak gave an incredible handball on his non-preferred, from a pack situation, and STILL managed to hit a team-mate on the run............But it also took quick thinking from ANB to understand it was even a possibility. A few others might well have been sucked into the pack, but ANB kept moving. Im really warming to the lad.

I know other will laugh at me, and im also quite pizzy on whiskey atm, but i have to say that i actually see a footballer in O'Mac. He is still a kid ffs. Why do so many people agree that you have to give "talls" time to develop but wont give Oscar the benefit of the doubt? OK, so right now he isnt setting the world on fire. I have also had several "facepalm" moments with him, but im betting that many will be happy to have his number on their MFC guernsey in 2-3 years. He, along with ANB will be long term players for MFC. Dont be afraid to bump this post in 2 years time if im wrong. Ding

Hey, what are you guys on about?? We are currently 8-1, and with todays win (or loss as long as it is within 5 goals and we have some excuses handy) we go 9 and 1. /sarc Time to start repaying the faith Dees. Overdue some might say.

On the turps hey Dub?

Hope your are correct. That would be a very good deal.

lol so we mightn't do it comfortably?

I say that every time someone from the club trots out the old "We are preparing for their best" BS. How bout we just play OUR best and the result will take care of itself.

ANB plus pick 10(ish) plus an upgrade of their second rounder not good enough? Lever looks good, but he isnt a ready made star. Its hardly a terrible offer i reckon. Who do you think we would need to part with?

Agree. Not much speculation involved in getting Lever. ANB could end up as a handy player and pick 10 has currency so i dont think a deal like that TOO unrealistic.

Rookie pick if they are outed long term for concussion issues during first contract. Rookie pick goes the moment they play first game in seniors or 2's Gives a chance to see how they go in development league.

Coulda woulda shoulda. It is possible to mount equally convincing arguments as to how our opposition could/would/should have beaten us in games we won. You are cherry picking things that may have helped us and conveniently ignoring things that wouldnt. We are NOT an 8-1 side.Even at full strength. Crazy talk. I have us winning 6 on the run home. Want to win all of them, but im not some starry eyed kid who believes in fairytales.

Hard to argue with any of that.

Exhibit A Last week proved we can win without them, so why use it as an excuse.

Geezus dude, you are on some wild gear if you honestly think we will win 8 of our last 11.
