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!

    Still can't believe our captain was on tv.

    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 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...

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
