Viney the Underdog

[tonatopia 278]

Listened to his press conference.

I reckon he is the big smokey.

Got balls, dropped Sylvia and Jurrah.

He is all determination, dosnt give a fcuk about pretenses.

No more pre-madonna's at this club. Hit the ball hard or fcuk off.

I AM GLAD TO BE MELBOURNE AGAIN!!!!

Great, but the selections are a little baffelling

Jurrah - has played some shocking footy in 2011, but even when he plays badly seems to get goals.

Sylvia - if it's an attitude thing, fine, but having a decent year stats wise + our only goal kicking mid

Bold moves, but doesn't it move us further from winning this week? Make the statements, put players in their places, but we still have a chance to put ourselves in finals, not just a mathematical chance but one that is ours to grab. Sure the season has been a disspointment but it's about winning games - not ensuring we finish 10th

This game is about making a statement of the type of Footy we gonna play future. A BIG statement.

That is more Important than the 4 points this week.

This game is about our future, our 2012, 2013, 2014, et al... sending a message to the Footy world!

I like the decision to drop Sylvia and Jurrah - a statement had to be made. I liked his press conference. But I don't like our chances.

I think all we can ask for is 100 percent effort and that seems to be what Todd is demanding. Good on him.

[tonatopia 278]

This is the game to win. Beware of the wounded beast.

Massive smokey, considering he's said he doesn't want to Coach (and the fact his son is coming to the Club).

A lot of Jurrah's goals this year have been kicked in junk time.

[McQueen 17,864]

We seem to be assuming Jurrah's been dropped for performance reasons?

Maybe his frame of mind following the past few days could have something to do with it. Personally, I think it's about time he had a run in the magoo's in the hope he finds some form.

We WILL be very tough and competitive this week even though the task of winning MAY be beyond us. I just hope that people won't get on Todd's back even if we have a substantial loss.Conversely, if we did pull off an unexpected win we shouldn't hail Viney as the coach supreme. It takes more than one game to evaluate the skills of a new coach.

I hope Brad Green is listening to Todd and not the foot steps of younger challengers to his spot

Who at this club are you likening to ML Ciccone?

IMO Jurrah's been badly handled this year.

RudeBoy has hinted a few times that he needs to be "let off the leash". It's like all the X-factor has been drained out of him. And if he's been carrying a lower leg injury for several weeks, he could have had a spell long before now.

[Sir Why You Little 36,990]

Yes i am Suprised Jurrah is not been given the "Play Naturally" How you want to.

Is he an emergency....(still a chance?)

But i am behind Todd...he is closer to the mess than i.

Silvia has been lazy IMO.

It will be interesting where Todd plays Tapscott, Davey, Green, Bate, Dunn, Strauss & Martin/Gawn (when not rucking).

In Todd we trust....everyone else we monitor....
