Vent Your Spleen

[gOLLy 401]

I want to say very bad things.

[Deemort 28]

Don't normally do this but here goes..... Most pathetic excuse for a team to ever man the field. That was so friggen frustrating, gonna be a long long night. And to Baily stop patting every f...ing body on the back when we are playing like sh.t, HaARDEN THE FARK UP! Big second term dees, lift your game.

[Pipefitter 2,159]

And people think saints, bombers and blue are winnable games.

We are a rubbish football club. Sick of it.

[Guest watts04]

we r a rubbish football club who stand for nothin

write a letter to schwab n stynes - pathetic

[MikeAlphaTango 150]

If we dont change this stupid ineffective kick out strategy soon, I am going to go mental.

[Deemort 28]

How god damn predictable are our kick ins, always towards right wing always comes straight back. Weak.

[Arrow 1,257]

Guys, was booking trip to Adelaide to go to a game but thinking ill just go to the Petronas Towers in KL and smash myself off there. Given this game i've got 24 people who should join.

[Arrow 1,257]

p.s Brad Green is Melbourne's worst player. I dont know what has happened but he is our worst player for the last 3 weeks. Screw the captaincy drop him

[Deemort 28]

Could half time have come at a worse time, the only patch we get on a bit of a roll and that momentum is smashed. As bad as we are playing it also feels like every little thing is going wrong for Melbourne. How the hell did Col trip over his own feet on a demon break away, could have been only 20 points after the worse footy we have played.

Amazing. Gone from an almost All Australian to a player that looks past it.

How has that happened?

Gee I am really really glad we did not pick up Darling in the last draft!

What a poor choice on the part of the Eagles.

Aside from umpteen marks, kicks and two goals he has hardly done a thing!

Around about now the MFC reqruitment team is heading for the airport.

We sure make some good choices.

[Maldonboy38 6,402]

My guts are in a knot.

I have never seen such a lack of intensity. Frawley, Sylvia, Bennell and Green are loping around the paddock hoping to get a kick.

Kicking skills look like the Maldon reserves from the 1970's - and I should know because I was playing there then. Do we not know how to kick?

And we are getting smashed at the clearances - again!

.

[Deemort 28]

How can West Coast (16th last year) and Essendon (14th) and Richmond (whatever) improve so much over a preseason and we go back in time 2 years. God we look crap.

You make your own luck.

Funny how the more skilled you are and the harder you try how your lucky you are.

I think you are being a little hard on the Maldon reserves.

[Mallee Bull 97]

Anyone see Cameron Bruce take control of Brad Green's body in the 2nd quarter?? That hospital handpass to Jonesy had to be Bruce's work!!!

And 36 to 13 inside 50's, getting smashed again!!!!!! 13 entries and we have had 11 scores, damn imagine we had 36 entries! Our turnovers are just laughable, what a joke.

Can someone from the Board please answer this???

[Kento80 83]

Green as captain = Epic Fail. Bailey as coach = Epic Fail. Rebuild = Epic Fail. Development = Epic Fail. And I am going to preempt the positive souls on here and say, SHUT IT. This is a vent your spleen thread and I am going to run with it. I have had ENOUGH of trying to be positive and make excuses and explain to my mates why we lost the game we should win, why our "top talent" look so SHITE. Letters to Schwab and Stynes should flow thick and fast. It is time to do something about this instead of sitting back and accepting it. NO MORE.

Yes Deemort it begars belief.

I have only two thoughts.

Our talent pool is nowhere as good as we think or our game plan / coach stinks.

Perhaps it is both.

[Kento80 83]

or our game plan / coach stinks.

I'm gonna roll with this bit, cause otherwise I've absolutely nothing to cling to for hope.

[Jaded No More 68,912]

We are terribly out of form, and by that I mean that our best players from last year in Green, Frawley and Davey are in shizen form.

Our captain has completely lost the plot as a player, we still can't clear the ball out of the back half and when we lose a clearance we nearly always concede a goal due to lack of pressure.

The positive thing for me is that the hardest part, which is getting a talented list, is done. Game plans and coaches are much easier to change than a list. At least I don't have to watch us suck knowing that our list is made up of hacks and has-beens. There is a lot of talent and a lot of development to come. what I'd love to know is what we need to do in order to wake these players up, because we seem to sleep through many quarters this season.

[Deemort 28]

You make your own luck.

Absolutely couldnt agree more, just the embly snap falling over goes through, and wonnas toe doesnt quite get there, just those two reversed and its 14 points or so in a terrible performance. We start to play , we can win, cos they're already playing to their ability and haven't put us away. A little luck, creates a little confidence and who knows.

[Carn dees 108]

Absolute rubbish, these people are professionals both the players and the playing staff!

We as supporters shouldn't have to put of with this garbage. I dont usually come on here to complain and be extremely negative but after the 2006-2009 years we should never have to see this rubbish.

What happens after half time imo is irrelevant, this is a disgrace by so called professionals.

Atelast show some intensity! Do something! Make them earn atleast!!
