 Sorry Roost, the quote feature, like most things things onthis site is screwed.

 

"You seem like a really nice bloke Ding. Get to bed early though because year 9 really is a consolidation year."

 

 

 lol, and this is what MFC supporters are reduced to.

 

No surprise we are considered a joke by clubs as pathetic as the drug cheats when this is all we can come up with.

 

Knock yourselves out guys, the football world is watching and laughing at your excuses. 16 losses in a row to Norf, and all you can do is make pathetic excuses.

Let's not ignore the elephant in the room either:

It's no co-incidence that when Garland gets dropped we cough up our biggest score of the year...

:roos:

I know you're being facetious, but let's be honest though. The rebound from the back 6 today was the best it's been in close to a decade.

I'm not happy with the result, but we looked really impressive a number of times off half back. There was little indecision, we took the game on and started many a goal scoring opportunity from quick, decisive sling-shot footy. Col is going to struggle to get back in.

Frost was very poor today as a forward/ruck chop out. Not sure why he isn't getting a run in the backline. Do we persist with only Dunn and TMac as our tall backs against the Pies? Or would OMac be  considered? Pedo? 

I hope they stop this yo-yo rubbish with Frost. Just keep him in and play him down back. Omac may well come back in though.

Great effort, but Lack of composure killed us

- final quarter, watts takes great grab, then from 30m chooses to kick to lead instead of going for goal

- hogan leads to watts in above scenario, why?? - why lead when the guy who is the best kick in the team has a shot at goal?.

- Kent misses two gettable goals by not steadying and then mis-kicking

- vandenburg misses running into open goal

- 50m penalties gifted away that result in opposition goals

 

basically it's the little things that our players consistently do, that smart footballers don't do

hopefully our coaches are pointing these things out!!

 

it would also be nice if at some stage when we play north that someone shuts down Harvey, the guy has carved us up in almost every game over the past 10 yrs and we do not seem capable of doing anything about it - and he gives me the sh#£$!!

yep that bald headed m@ggot really did a number on us. Gave us very little, yet at every opportunity was looking to give NM a free

What is the name of "the bald headed maggot" ? There is a special place in Hell for oxygen thieves like this.

LOL loss 16 against a mob of pretenders, and some are trying to blame it on the umpires.............. again............

MFC have WAY too many supporters who are too easy to please.

Glad the sugar-coaters fund this chit. Means i can keep saving the money i would have spent on membership for stuff i actually enjoy.

This was a statement game believe it or not. Makes me laugh.

Or not.

 

 

Keep your money. I will buy two memberships if you promise to find a another team.

Ffs....there were a million errors in the game and you isolate Watts?

You're kidding.....

I'm partially blaming Hogan for presenting the lead in the first place. Why even offer a lead when the bloke with the ball in hand is our best set shot for goal in the side and he's 30m out?

First Quarter killed us. 8 Goals to nil

takes a lot of energy to even the scores or edge in front

WHY DO WE ALWAYS START SO BADLY??

I still worry about our Captain and i know people on here will hammer me, but he gets silenced too easily...

Never and don't deserve it after giving away a 7 goal start! We need to take a leaf from Hawthorns book ! But of course we lack the same "Culture"

Out-coached in the last. Shocking to have only 9 interchangers left with 10 minutes left as you are running the game out with the wind. Their midfield got on top in a pivotal 10-minute period while we were stretching out our rotations.

Melbourne found a way to lose this. Umps were fairly balanced in the last. We lost poise and structure in the last quarter and seemed tired. 

The game was there to be won but ultimately we tired ourselves out. Should have been fresher in the last but weren't even though North had a few banged up bodies.

There are only 90 interchange the whole game. We left 10% of interchanges for about 7% of game time. Can't fault that.

As for the umpires, there was a period in the last quarter whereby north received 8 free kicks in a row. How on earth is that fair?

What about the interpretation of kicking 15m? Twice in our defensive area we were denied a mark for kicks of at least 20m. Maggots.

Those were horrible decisions.  The first one was clearly more than 15m but he called it before it even got there.  Even the commentators thought it was a rubbish decision.

It wasn't eight goals to nil it was eight goals to two against a strong breeze. In the second we outscored them nine goals to two so we recovered pretty well I would say. The umpiring  killed is (even if they evened up in the end). At one stage they had ten extra frees. Pleased with the effort but the efficiency let us down!

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
