Club psychologist???

Recommended Posts

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!

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 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.

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.

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

Psychic Phenomena is probably what I watched on Sunday afternoon at 320 pm! God help us!

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

They must have been the ones I missed C and B

I have to go back a long way before Brilliant come to mind, good perhaps but not brilliant

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

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
