The Backyard Charizard 1,202 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Goodvibes made an excellent post a week, or so, ago where he succinctly enunciated how 3 or 4 players missing can have a major effect on a team's performance. I know it's bizarre to suggest this, but Magner's injury has really been crucial to our recent fortunes. As most have stated for some time, we have a third world midfield and it's still where games are won and lost. Magner's grunt and ability to get the ball moving our way has been sorely missed. Clearly the players are trying to adapt to a new game-plan and it's going to take time. I'm not overly perturbed as I have confidence in the end result. But it will test some supporter's resolve. I also have confidence in the end result, I am just unsure of what our list will look like when the end arrives
Hells Gates 505 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 hehe yeah the seasons miles away, plenty of time to improve.... We havent improved in 4 years...

stranga 328 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 We havent improved in 4 years... exactly, i was being sarcastic
The Backyard Charizard 1,202 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Here's hoping for a better 2nd half The same could be said about my life as a Dees supporter

DemonMuzza 16 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Omg commentators didn't even know you could change your side at half time. Aren't commentators sposed to know stuff???

Barney Rubble 1,576 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 We in a high training load cycle? Surely there is a reason Port walks all over us That's right how stupid of me. We are tapering off.

Supermercado 2,806 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Omg commentators didn't even know you could change your side at half time. Aren't commentators sposed to know stuff??? As rubbish as these commentators are I'm not surprised they have no idea about the rules considering they're seemingly made up on the spot in the pre-season.
Guest gidon Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 KrazyJay, You need to settle down and take your hand off the keyboard. SERIOUSLY STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER. Geeeez FFS

dee-luded 2,959 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 We havent improved in 4 years... Yeah , we have. But it won't show on the Ladder Just Yet. thats the problem, when we grow,,, we can't see the Improvement Until it smacks Us right in the Face, (becomes Obvious)... We have improved in many areas with our list & individual players, but it doesn't show as a team until we close to success. the weakest link syndrome.
Hells Gates 505 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 WHERE ARE YOU COLIN SYLVIA?? Has he been Subbed off?? Apparantly couldnt get his hair right at half time due to no mirrors in the changerooms. Was last seen in a corner crying "its all too hard" & snickering "I get paid truckloads to be soft"..........
Hells Gates 505 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Yeah , we have.

I agree with you - I was referring to our skills, they are still dredful.
dee-luded 2,959 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 HaHa.... I prefer http://thingsbogansl...-bundaberg-rum/ Woh, I used to love that stuff. I made myself So sick on it once I couldn't drink it for Years.
Sir Why You Little 37,500 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Yeah , we have.

How can people keep saying this when players like our "Gun" Sylvia has had one kick?? It is just not good enough even for a dress rehearsal In 4 Years we have not improved....we did in 2010, but have fallen back again....
The Backyard Charizard 1,202 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 KrazyJay, You need to settle down and take your hand off the keyboard. SERIOUSLY STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER. Geeeez FFS Are you serious?? Who the hell are you?? I am a passionate Melbourne Football Club Member who donates a healthy portion to the club each year, and buys memberships for each of my family members.... I live in Adelaide, I drive a ute around that is covered in Melbourne stickers, and has a Melbourne number plate.... I rock up to Footy Park wearing my Melbourne guernsey when Melbourne aren't even playing, just to barrack for the opposition... If I wish to crack jokes, have the odd whinge and talk a bit of BS on my favourite website.... Then I will.... Come here and try and drag me away from my computer.... I dares ya!
dee-luded 2,959 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 I agree with you - I was referring to our skills, they are still dredful. Yep, thats just confidence. When confidant & centered, the skills flow. When stressed out, the rhythm & timing vanishes in all athletic sports. Even Boxing, timing goes.
