Great to see two much maligned players (BBBB and TMac) play solid games. Proof that you should never write anyone off

Ben Brown for sure. Will kick a goal or two even if he's not having the best day. Also let's JVR get the 2nd best defensive match up

Disappointing game but alot of time to improve.

He's one of the reasons we won the flag in 21. Goodluck Benny

Everything apart from 'they were found out in the finals'. Our inaccurate kicking caught up with us. I don't think out game style failed us. Maybe it's semantics to some, but I think there's an argument to say we let ourselves down, more so than got found out by opposing teams in those 2 finals. I agree with the instability and the question mark about whether our gamestyle will hold up again.

Was going to write something similar. Gutted by the circumstances and ia a massive loss on and off field.

So much emotion in and around the club that i can only see boom or bust scenarios. I really hope the adversity galvanises the group, but feel the Oliver and Smith scenarios may have be too draining.

Fantastic report. And Deep Purple rule 💜

I intend to go!

Good outcome. Glad we're not getting rid of all of the experience in the locker room all at once.

I'd go hard at Tom Lynch. As others have said, Petty and JVR are the future, but need some more depth in this area so 2023 doesn't repeat

Circus competition making the interpretation of rules and processes up on the fly.

We could/should have won for the last 2 weeks. Hindsight says injuries to Brayshaw, Petty and Melksham cost us. You can pretend alot is wrong but the reality is fine margins decide finals and we were % off with personnel and % off with polish

Gawn - Battled all game Viney - one fatal kick Petracca - decent game only Oliver - almost kicked sealer May - dominated his opponent Salem - tough and effective Rivers - tried his best Langdon - only did running McVee - calm under pressure Pickett - one of best Lever - very good game Spargo - very good game Chandler - little impact again Fritsch - uncharacteristic misses costly McDonand- was barely sighted Neal-Bullen - ran all day Tomlinson - justified his selection Bowey - costly fumble late Hunter - far from worst Smith - good first half Jordan - big shoes unfilled Sparrow - in the bests

Lots of hyperbole in this thread

I have this bizarre numb feeling. Last week stung more. Could see the result coming after continual missed shots. We'll go again next. Hindisght says we were pushing ahit uphill once Melk and Petty went down

Don't have a problem with Selection. Bring on the cheats!

Afl is a corrupt piece of [censored], but realistically I'm way to invested in the MFC and this years flag hopes to carry the rage too much further into the week.

I hope we harness the emotion of this week for a productive outcome. Could go either way I think

If AFL doesn't appeal this I'm [censored] done

Just watched the incident again and feel like punching a hole in the TV. Maynard carrying on first pumping his mates after that makes me sick. Can't wait to see him rubbed out and miss out on the rest of the season.

After seeing the post all I can say is LOL 'Giant'

I'd be rolling the brown dice this week. He's a natural forward and we don't have many of them

Blues just won their premiership. We're going to butt [censored] them next week
