Handed them that goal. On a silver platter We had God damn ball at the 50, we overuse it to the point we turn it over. I can't believe this [censored] club sometimes.

Still in shock about that quarter.

This might blow out. Looking at them in the huddle...they *look* defeated. You really couldn't pick a more Melbourne game.

If we get up from here I'll be VERY surprised. Freo won't give this lead up.

6.3 to 0.2 for the quarter. Not a finals side.

Gotta ask questions about Goodwin defensive plan. Teams score too easily.

5 consecutive to freo. 4 this quarter. Embarrassing.

4 straight goals to freo, each coming after having possession for may even 1 or 2 minutes. We have possession for long periods and can't score.

We badly need a goal

One of the dumbest starts to a quarter ever.

Sandliands: 24 hitouts, 5 hitouts to advantage Spencer: 7, 3 hitouts to advantage

Weeds has 2 disposals and 7 AF points. I've stood up for him on here but his performance today has been unacceptable. May as well be playing with one less player. His inability to contest in the air has been shocking.

Petracca! Jetta 2012 Grand Finale-esque

Weeds...omg

Lol

I don't know what to make of that. It's almost a carbon copy of last week

Thank God for hunt and Jetta.

Lol ball on last line so we snap it in the air to no man's land.

Freo has done 3 sling tackles so far

That was the most Tyson kick ever.

If we're a finals side, we win and win comfortably. 40+ points. I think this team is still trying to find its feet and establish an identity. You need to anticipate losses on days like today. Harsh reality. We are not a finals-proven side yet and are still working our way up. Fremantle could easily roll us. If you're prepared to accept that then it won't come as a surprise. I'm not saying that because "Oh it's Melbourne, they lose games like today", rather because the team still hasn't *really* proven itself.

TAC. Vic Roads. QUIT. Booze Less. Tasmania. Etc etc

Mmmmmm, pie.

Let's all remember how awesome a last 5-6 games he had last year when the team was pushing for a finals spot and he won a Rising Star nom. I don't know if as Melbourne fans it's our tendency to overstate bad games and performances on a team and player level, but seriously, we crucify players and act like they're the reason we lose games. We are just like Richmond supporters in that sense. Utterly brutal, especially on young players. We almost ruined Watts. We fueled the media criticism. Ox I have no doubt just goes with the bandwagon and sees the game in a really shallow way. Oscar isn't great, but we absolutely need to back him in purely on the back of him performing so well in arguably the club's most pivotal moment of the past decade. Halfway through last season we went through the same thing. He'd played maybe 10 games. I and a few others supported him and he turned it around, and the very people saying now, "See I told you he was garbage!" were at the time saying "Colour me impressed!" An old footy cliche: it's a marathon, not a sprint. Oscar is pivotal to our long term plans.
