GAME DAY - Round 2

[Jaded No More 67,822]

Mark Neeld should be ashamed for sitting on his hands all day. We are being humiliated and his only move Is to flood the back line.

Honestly, watching this makes me want to cry. It's just beyond belief that we could have regressed so much!

[Real Demon 232]

God footy sucks!!!!!!!!

[stuie 7,374]

Yeah that's how I feel, he can talk the talk but he doesn't seem to have great match day tactics... I mean we are almost losing by 100 points and we are still going with the same structures!! And come on Bates should on from the start of the game...

I would much rather Neeld experiment and fail than not try anything... If you're down by 12 goals obviously something's (everything's) not working FFS.

DO SOMETHING NEELD. ANYTHING. JUST DO SOMETHING!

[DemonDan83 95]

It's rebuild time. Bye bye Bennell. Bye bye Batram, bye Mcdonald, bye Rivers, adios Dunn.

Dare I say ta-ta Watts??

Trade Jamar whilst still holds value. Use compo picks on fresh talent, and hope for the best. See you again in another few years!

I have to totally agree with you!! I think Neeld just needs to scratch this season, this list and start from scratch... makes me question was it all Bailey's fault?! I mean even the biggest shake up, emotional weeks and we can't get one glimmer of heart or attack from our players... wtf is wrong with them?!

[BennytheJet 15]

Accepting firstly that we have one of the worst collection of footballers since fitzroy..

How was this game plan developed for modern footy? 4 or 5 forwards with 3 or more of them playing high half forward/wing

No team could possibly score enough to win a game of football with this plan.

[dees189227 12,234]

_{Do you reckon Neeld just wants to push open the emergency exit on the plane and jump out. meeld would still be no closer on who is our best 22. Just play the players that want to be there and will know give 100%. Its time for Neeld to rebuild from the bottom. Maybe our players arent smart enough to learn the gameplan.}

[Diablo Deemon 220]

5 years of misery and this is it.

Has there ever been a better club at ripping your heart and soul out and stomping the crap out of it.

We are hopeless there is not one positive thing coming out of this club.

I think we are all being fooled the hope only ever turns out to be a false dawn.

They can't continue to treat the supporters this way.

They give us nothing.

[DeeZee 7,296]

I think there is something else going on at the club.....with this Davey/Mifsud thing where theres smoke theres fire...Players do not look committed at all. They look very distracted.

We just have Zero leadership....the last leader we had we got rid off too quick, McDonald of course.

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

Oh and sianara Green. Although not playing today I'd like to say bye to Davey and Morton too. Some may say that's unfair- I say I couldn't give a [censored].

I knew we would get smashed today but seeing how inept we actually are in real time makes you realise some truths; We suck and as a team are not AFL standard.

[rjay 24,616]

The tackling is just f....d. The only ones we stick are too high. More on this later.

[Jack7 521]

Very poor decision by the match comittee to name Bate sub 2 weeks in a row and bring Petterd,Dunn and Bennell straight into the team.

Bate should have gone straight into the midfield where we're getting smashed the most.

Memo to match comittee-Bate starts next week against the Tiges.

[demoniac 1,296]

We MUST be tanking again. There's NO WAY a professional AFL coach would let a game go on like this without making ANY positional or strategical changes.

Then again, if that's the case, sack him. Now.

Maybe he is giving them no room for excuses.

At least Neeld now knows the magnitude of his task. Dean Bailey has left him players who are not fit enough and make dumb decisions.

[Balls 31]

What are the moves mate? There are no moved to make because they're all crap.

[Chook 14,998]

Neeld not changing his positioning may be an attempt to instil his gameplan into the players. But by not moving his players around, he can't see what they can do. Throw Clark into the ruck, put Bate on for a whole game for once, put Garland up forward, put Frawley in the middle, put Jamar at full forward. Do something proactive. It's not all up to the players. They need to see that the coach is still trying things - that he still cares. But there's nothing. We may as well have a cadaver up in the coaches box.

[Range Rover 1,935]

how do you drop a whole side? Has it been done before?

The whole time I'm watching this I'm thinking ... if you handpicked 22 of the toughest, play-with-heart types from the ammos and suburban footy, they'd be twice as good as our side.

[Ned 156]

This is amazing. We could lose by 150 points.

[Dee-licious 1,949]

Can't wait to the press conference. Need to hear something from Neeld. Also looking forward to the ins and outs thread..

[Dr. Gonzo 23,723]

Bad kick from Green but ATTACK THE FOOTY FFS WATTS. Starting to believe the doubters here, he is playing like another in a long line of front running downhill skiers at MFC who don't like body contact.

[stuie 7,374]

What are the moves mate? There are no moved to make because they're all crap.

ANYTHING! Otherwise we've just given up.

How about Frawley to FF, Clark to ruck, Dunn to midfield... Why just let it continue without putting up as much as a whimper? OR just tell the players to not change ends and see what they learn playing at opposite spots.

[DemonDan83 95]

oh and here come the pay back frees... yay!!

[Dr. Gonzo 23,723]

Can't wait to the press conference. Need to hear something from Neeld. Also looking forward to the ins and outs thread..

Was thinking what are the odds for Neeld going batshit crazy in the press conference and taking down a reporter or two?

[Jack7 521]

Watts is a lazy disgrace,6 weeks at Casey and if you don't pull your finger out,Casey 2's!!!

[gOLLy 401]

I just told my little boy to barrack for another side

[caco demon 29]

Fitzroy part 2.

[stuie 7,374]

Bulltish!! He needs to fairly cope the blame. It's not the reporters faults that MFC had no focus or direction today.
