The Couch Situation

Featured Replies

Magner's first season has been admirable thus far, but he has struggled the last few weeks. Ended today being subbed out and looks in need of a rest for a week or two.

Time for Couch to get a run for a couple of weeks in the seniors.

No Way! That would kill my super coach. Only have 4 Trades left.

Have to agree. Whether it's form or fatigue, the Mitsubishi needs to be booked in for a service.

Couchy in.

Casey game today:

Tom Couch 25 Possessions 4 Goals

If he doesn't get a call up this week I'll be taking the unprecedented step of contacting the club in protest (which I've never done before).

I don't get it.... Talkback caller or something similar?

I know it sounds a bit silly, but that's where my frustration is at.

yes surely today would be enough for him to play on the weekend. if he doesn't get picked then he will be delisted at years end.

I'd like to see some guts at selection and finally give Trengove a rest to sort out any issues that may have dogged his onfield performances. And give Couch his spot. No one could be as slow, lethargic and ineffective as Trengove has been all season and he is still playing. So much for all the tough talk by Neeld.

.and you left out Moloney there too.

True. But Moloney's decline is not entirely unexpected after last seasons form and loss of his leadership role. Having one of our best last year who was elevated to captain, playing like he does now is hard to take. Who would have predicted it? Some of the moves he did against Richmond looked like slow motion. His running and chasing are at suburban league level. The remainder of the season is now purely early development for next season and if he is injured get him off the park and get him right.

Huh?

Moloney's form last season?

He was inconsistent yes, but he won the Bluey and polled 19 Brownlow votes.

He is averaging 7 less touches and two less tackles a game.

His decline far outweighs Trengove's and while they both have moved into varying roles this year - Brent is far more of a worry than Jack.

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
