If anyone thinks re-signing Riley was....

Featured Replies

 

Have a look at all the games he's played in. It's a repetitive theme. He can't kick, runs around in circles and loses the ball to the opposition every time he gets it. Absolutely useless.

 

Pig dog is my fav new player, if you where watching the game you will he has such a big heart he got so many free kicks. wow I loved how he put his body on the line.. He has a style about him that reminds me of grinter. I think with another year under roos he could be one of our best players..

Pig dog is part of our future, if you can't see you are complete bline!! In fact I thought he was in our top five tonight and part of the reason we where competitive.

Finally I would like to say what a great decision by our management for resigning him, and I can tell you that our management know alot more about football than the person that started this pathetic thread.

Kind regards

Donny .

A good idea watch the last turnover kick across goal. A disgrace

NFI.

Roos' philosophy is obviously: keep the hard working honest triers with poor skills, get rid of lazy supposedly-skilful no-hopers, and bring in skilful kids, but tell them they won't get a game unless they work as hard as the hard working hacks.

Bail, Riley, Terlich et al will get games until skilful kids replace them by showing they'll work just as hard.


Good post Don, couldn't have said it better. Aiden's game while needing some minor teaking reminds me of a young Rod Grinter.

Yeah chookrat big future for him, I hate people who bag our player just because they make one simple error

I sense a theme in all 194 of your posts.

 

Yes Don, pig dog was a good pickup from Adelaide and I think with a couple of preseasons will show why he was picked up.

This thread is [censored] stupid! Going by the standards set here, Bernie Vince should be canned and Dom Tyson too. Thanks be to the Flying Spaghetti Monster that you tards are not on the selection commitee!


He came into the season underprepared after a broken leg. Poor skills late in the game will happen until he develops a tank. How many times in the last few weeks did Vince miscue kicks to opponents that resulted in turn over goals? I can think of at least 2. (Not dissing Bernie). Judge Riley at the end of next year after a full preseason and 12-15 games.

Rather have to be teaching disposal than teaching intent and hardness at the ball.

He'll learn, even if that just means learning to keep it simple and not do anything fancy.


He works hard and is ferocious. He can also get the footy. These attributes aren't that easy to find and for that I think he deserves a spot on the list in 2015.

But he clearly has no idea what to do with it when he gets it. And his kicking skills are below A-grade amateur level.

2015 will make or break him. I personally agreed with Tony Shaw when he said, you kick like Riley and you won't play much AFL.

Yes Chookrat I think we can both agree on this, I really think he will be our 2015 and onwards grinter type player who everybody loves and admires..

Get a clue ffs.

No idea.

seriously have a look on video at every game he's played for MFC. He kicks it to the opposition or handpasses it backwards and turns it over or hesitates when in perfect position to kick a goal or at least to the top of the goal square so long that he gets tackled and loses the ball. Absolute waste of a place in the team.

It's not one simple error. It's absolutely disastrous shocker cl angers week after week. Do you actually go to any games???

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
