It's best to staple to the back in most cases so you don't have to smooth out the area over the staples.

If the back wont be seen, wrap around back, and use hot glue. You don't have to wrap all the way if it won't be seen, just enough to glue to.

The all caps gives the appearance that you are yelling at me.

Hmm...You could lay FG on the back I guess. I don't think you would have to wrap the fleece all the way around. You could stop it on the sides so you wouldn't have as much trouble making things level. You could also consider carpet over the MDF. It would still look professional and might involve a little less work.
