Sylvia and Moloney - A Poll

Sylvia and Moloney - A Poll 209 members have voted

  1. 1. If you were Mark Neeld, what would you do with these two?

    • Keep them both. They are among our best players and indispensable to the side.
      59
    • Move them both on. I've seen enough to know they're not going to get any better. We need to rebuild our midfield and should trade them out now while both have currency..
      34
    • Keep Moloney, offer Sylvia up for trade.
      11
    • Keep Sylvia, let Moloney go after his contract's up at season's end.
      21
    • Not sure but I'm fast running out of patience with them.
      29
    • Not sure but I'm happy to give them time to adapt to the demands of the new coach.

love the 'lets giv em more time' attitude that 90% of posters have here.

no wonder we are looking at 0-11

perfect attitude to get u no where

My thoughts exactly.

 

Moloney employs the manager, not the other way 'round. Get real.

So the manager is doing his job....Is he not???.....The same as all managers of FA players......Is not Cloke's manager doing the same thing (even though it's his Dad)......It would be incomptent if all managers were not doing the best deal for their clients who have the chance to avail themselves of FA........This is the future.....Get used to it...

My thoughts exactly.

These same people are in for a major shock during the Trade Weeks. As Gough Whitlam said way back in '72. "It's Time"

So who are we going to trade and what are we going to get back??????...I know you want change but just for change sake is not going to cut it.......Where are we going to get better players??? Who is going to give us better players....Unfortunatly change taks time...

No not change for change sake. We need better than that. I am sure the work has already begun. Neeld has 3 years. The 1st. is already cooked so this draft period coming could make or break him.

Be bold Boss, we have watched in the shadows too long.

I grew up fearing Demons. The stuff of nightmares. Let's see some of that on the MCG.

How about we start at the SCG....

I don't think it will happen. I think the approach now is to keep players under the gaze and control of conditioning staff. All things have their use-by date.

as do players !!

 

Did anyone read the Melbourne Board on Big Footy? There was an allegation on the "changes for next week" thread that there was a Melbourne player who had to be helped out of Crown and bundled in to a cab on Saturday night..

Relevant to this thread.

Is that the bit about Neeld supposed phoning a particular player with a "please explain" ?

Didn't read that just the allegation that the Melbourne player was s/faced and needed assistance to get out of Crown and in to a cab.

Forget the manager. Brent calls the shots.

And yes, he can do what he likes. No problem. But as a supporter of the MFC, I can also do what I like. And in this instance I'm calling Mr "we won't deviate from the straight line" out for acting like a rat scampering from the sinking ship when the more noble action would be to put your head down, bum up and work your tail off for the club in its hour of need.

That's the way to earn respect, not only from within your own club but from the outside football world as well.

Yeah the boys were out on the town celebrating another loss this weekend. I thought players generally don't get wasted during the season. Or is that just all there other clubs. Sigh.

Great.

Is that player still in the selected side?


Yep he is. This is the reason why the club had to make a 19 year old captain. These "senior" boys dont care anymore.

It doesn't sound like 'elite compliance' - the player shouldn't be playing this weekend.

Where is the evidence.....You can't hang someone on rumour....

Maybe that player still being in the team is evidence of it not happening?

But if it is true - we have more evidence that we have an issue with our senior players.
