Captains lead...i.e they captain.. I know this sounds harsh but whats he done?

Last year he did many of those 1% things...all the stuff for which many of us thought would make him particularly suited to the leaders role.

Have seen bugger all this year.. Just saying what Im seeing :(

The next 4 weeks will sort us out.

Adelaide at the G

North at Etihad

St.Kilda at Etihad

Carlton Friday night at the G

Back that up with a Friday night against the Bombers, and Queens Bday, and we will know exactly where things are at.

Cheap talk, fluffy media pieces, TV appearances, backing the coach publicly, etc etc will mean absolutely nothing.

Actions speak louder than words, and if the team doesn't fire over this period, then the team will seal the coaches fate.

Brad Green - "hopefully you will see a competitive Melbourne outfit running out there on Sunday".

Hopefully :(

A little bit more than hope Brad. I expect it and would've thought they would be the words being trotted out, not hopefully.

Good Call, the leadership group certainly doesn't appear to have drawn a line in the sand in regards to next weeks game as yet. We probably shouldn't read too much into whats said at a press conference, but you would like to hear something a lot more definative than 'hoping' for a more competive effort from the captain.

Another thing, didn't the leadership group get together last year following the Hawthorn loss in Round 1 and agreed to put in a much better effort that saw us almost beat the eventual premiers and then win three games on the trot?

I'm disgusted that Brad Green was on TV.

What he should have been doing was training.

In fact, the entire team should have gone on a 24/7 train-a-thon until next week's game.

(In case you're wondering, of course they shouldn't be training 24/7 - they should also be visiting hospitals and schools spruiking the Club).

I'll raise you with the point that (I heard from a sauce) he has apparently been spending some time with his baby. Trash captain. He should be out on the source with his mates at the pub like a real captain.

Judd's Grandmother told me the same thing and I was so angry I snapped my keyboard in half.

I hope you sent him a twitter poke before snapping away.

Too much rage for that!

(I did un-friend him on Facebook though).

As if he was friends with you anyway.

The main man is under the pump, He has one of the hardest jobs in AFL right now, right behind DB (thats another story), So brad yes he has been playing poorly,if you can even call it playing...but i will give him a bit more time than 5 games.

He is our only Veteran and everybody wants him to lead from the front, as should be expected, but MFC is thin on leaders... what do we have 4 players older than 26? Brad is leading a few pushing [censored] up a hill right now, and cops it when 18/22 play like crap.

Brad has some runs on the board, and people are very willing to forget what he has done as recently as last year for the MFC, was in the tram of 40 for the AA team missing the final cut. Top 5 in goal kicking or something

Anyone who has written the man off please remember,

THE CREAM ALWAYS RISES TO THE TOP

Go brad, but please pull it out

i said that the cream always rises and today it started to, one good performance is ok but he really did lead from the front today, was super happy with what he gave MFC today

i could not agree more.

Still can't believe our captain was on tv.

I can't believe our captain wasn't on TV this week. It's a disgrace. I bet he was at home, eating a pie AND CHIPS (with his ex-teammate Simon Buckley). If we lose next match it'll be because he couldn't be bothered fronting up on TV this week.

I saw him on Telly Rogue!

It was at about 5pm and he didn't seem too happy with the fit of his jumper...


Posted

Yeah, he was better this week, but...

Where the frack was Tom Scully?!

?!

He was there with that solo singer Robbo, tell'n him how good the Casey initiative is with the club and how important it is for the community, and you know, like, because he comes from that area, and like.. so it's important to him too..and all that jazz. :mellow:

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership.
