The backline has been horrible. So Many goals coughed up in the goal square.

They have Chapman, Bartel and Selwood on the bench and they are still smashing us. Pathetic.

you can just smell a record coming cant you !!

Why would ANYBODY want to be recruited into this seemingly heartless club.......once again the total numbness from decades of this crap is the only painkiller i have...... i will wait for all children and women to get of this sinking ship b4 i do the same.........

Mackenzie and Watts are the 2 highest possesion getters till now. Can anyone see the problem and positives to this.

For months now i have been saying that our players are no where as good as we think.

For months I have been told I do not know what i am talking about.

"We have a talented group" "who only need time"

I am constantly told.

Well guys what is the line tonight?

We have A football department that after four years has us producing what may be the worst performance

In the clubs history.

The has beens we threw out did not play this badly

at least they gave their best.

Unfortunately we have to start again.

I am too old for this but what is the alternative!

Sorry DB but after 4 years you have taken us backwards.

Do the honourable thing and resign tonight.

And CC it is time for the same mate.

I said this before the start of the season and was howled down by the usual suspects on here, well I'd like their opinion now.

My concern arose during the early practice games when it was apparent our players weren't good enough and our game plane wasn't either. But no I was told to stop being alarmist and it was only practice we would see the real thing when the season started well is this what they were talking about? Any of them want to comment now; how about some of the smart asses that took a shot at me coming on this thread and telling us that all is still ok.

And Trengove leading tackler in the game at 3/4 time.

Those three at least seem to give a crap about this club.

Ive heard of Christmas in July but the Cats must think all their Christmases have come at once !!

Weve learnt a lot from today... alot !!!

Stop talking of Garry Lyon, he has been out of the game since 1998...it won't happen.

You are probably right and we could not afford his asking price. However he would be a great head coach as we are desperate for leadership and passion.

All i will say about today's performance so far, is that it goes way deeper than just the Coach.

If you want Bailey gone, then Brad Green has to also cease as Captain after today.

NEW START...

You are a cool cat WYL. Jurrah on Bartel, and then playing in defence. Martin through the middle. Watts loose in defence in the second QTR when we have a 3 - 4 goal tail wind and need a strong marking forward. Not playing Moloney in a different role, when he hasn't touched the ball. Just to name a few in the first half. I agree with you that it's more than Bailey, and does go deeper, but he panic's to often and makes silly coaching mistakes.

It's frustrating and I think the MFC are starting to waste the talent that we have. It's not just Bailey, but the coaching staff as a whole.

Just My opinion.

The one and only good thing to come out of this year is watching Jack Watts progress as a footballer. He never gives up. It's such a pity that his teammates can't play with the same determination and endeavour. I've been a MFC supporter from the day I was born and this is the worst footy day I can remember.

The silence is deafing!

His tackle count just shows how much he has been chasing tail all day...

i agree....we need to spend up BIG on the Football Dept, NOW/. It is not just Bailey, that is all i am saying.

These players are getting paid good coin, to deliver us Heartache....it is not acceptable.

+1

We are going to be beaten by 30 goals at this rate.we have big big problems down at the club.

I have been following the Dees since 1961.

I was there in 1964 and still hope to be there when we hold the cup up sometime in the next 3-5 years.

However, today's game shows that unless we are prepared to do the hard things now, that will not happen.

Dean Bailey should also see this and resign immediately.

It is not that it's "all his fault"- but it would seem he has 1. run out of ideas and 2. lost the ability to motivate the team.

Old Dee said in an earlier post our players are not as good as we are made to believe.

I am not sure that is correct.But they are not being we led (what happened to Moloney today...Green has played another shocker)and they are being coached by someone who has come to the end of his effectiveness.

Ive become very irate and disillsuioned in the past when similar ( unfortunately theres other days ) debacled have happened but today im quite calm. Im over this bunch of hacks that parade as a football dept. I am however going to need teh club to act and act decisely after this appalling display.

This cant sit well surely with the likes of those with any pride left at the club.

This is ROCK BOTTOM.

Do something MFC..something

without doubt this is the lowest point in my time of following the Demons for the last 30 years. If this had happened in 2008 it may have been understandable but 4 years into teh rebuild totally inexcusable. I hoped Bailey could be the man to lead us forward but there is no excuse for him seeing out the week as coach now.

Most goals ever kicked at Skilled stadium.

Need 3 more to kick most goals ever and if they win by 190 or more they get that record too.

They need to score 20 more points to record the highest EVER score in the AFL/VFL history.

PS: Where did my poll go?

Question. Who would really want to coach us.

lol

Weve come along way since 1979 or whenever fitzroy kicked that high score against us.
