Roos continues to talk about the players mentality.

And we have over 30 people who work in the footy department and over 30 more who work at the club. Not to mention the 44 players!

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/the-club/people/staff-members

I know we have a psychologist work with the players. But where's their name? How many hours are they doing if they aren't even on the website.

Maybe we need 2? Different people open up to different counsellors and Roos is speaking like some of our players need significant therapy.

Saty and any others with links in the club can you please get me an answer as to what the most mentally scarred club in the comp is doing to fix it besides meditation and Roos bringing it up at press conferences?

Probably need a team of psychologists and a hospital ward for starters GRRM

Sorry could not help myself

I actually think it is way more skill based than mental but that probably puts me in the minority.

No amount of psychology is going to turn Grimes into a good kick IMO

I love this idea, it could generate plenty of additional revenue.

Step 1 - the club hires a couple of full time counsellors

Step 2 - they set up a full time clinic in the bowels of the MCG

Step 3 - MFC members can pay a premium to get free sessions during any game at the MCG.

We need a proctologist to extract the players heads out of their arses

We need a hypnotist to tell the players that "when siren goes that they go hell for leather until the siren goes again".

That'll fix em.

Next we will want to know how many bowel movements each player has. This is a terrible post.

I think the club should provide these services for us supporters.

Tami’s work at Melbourne is no token hire. She is the author of two books — one with her husband — and has a degree in parapsychic science from the American Institute of Holistic Theology.

At this point of her involvement with the MFC you would have to say has been some what less than successful.

Found this definition: "Parapsychic science is the unity of contemporary science and philosophy with metaphysics to provide us with the ability to understand and communicate with the spiritual realm. It covers many areas of psychic science including the investigation of psychic phenomena, extra-terrestrial activity, telepathy, near-death experiences, and parapsychology."

From the Herald Sun article. Seems practical and apt for MFC.

Paul Roos is complaining about the players mental focus. If he was complaining about their fitness we would expect changes to the fitness staff.

If he's identified a problem, then please tell us paying members and supporters how he plans to fix the problem. Upgrading a couple of sessions a week unnamed sports psychologist to a bigger role may help. At least conversing with us members about what he's doing about the problem with be a start.

Thanks Ox for the spell check. Wasn't sure which way to there.

Agree it's a classic.

Lets not overthink this, it is a damn simple game.

Damm the postal service is slow out to Beech Forest. The near death stuff seems appropriate given we suffer it almost every week.

It wouldve been quicker to get my doctorate online.

Im just not a computer nerd and did it in writing,Thats why 6 weeks.

Tammi has enlisted in the "tell your fortune by reading tea-leaves" course.{it takes 4 hours}I didnt want to commit

I for one cant believe in all of victoria,tammi was the only person available to our club.

Definitely job for the spouse..

It's not a bad point

There have been matches this year when we were brilliant, how can (nearly) the same 22 come out with the garbage of the latter part of this season

come on mate.. just browse the board back to the middle part of the year, everyone including me was pretty happy with how the Roos era was taking shape. It is a different side over the last 4-8 weeks and I don't know why
