I didn't realise how slow Bail is.Is that a tad harsh?

Haven't you read The Lord of the Rings? Rohan is only fast on horseback.

EDIT: Finally. I've been waiting to trot that one out for years.

what in the hell is this crap

We are either going at half pace or we are going to be in a bit of strife this year.

hahha this is soo [censored]

The biggest problem I see is that they still take too long to make decisions.

Well that was terrible. Wei either aren't interested or we still have quite a few players just not up to it.

I'm starting to wonder what Dawes offers?

Shocking effort!

Also Goddard is a genuine piece of [censored].

Started well, but have been rattled by the pressure and run of the Bombers through the midfield.

Some terrible decision making by hand.

Forward line that looked like it was functioning well early became non-existant.

Argghhhh!!!

Cmon guys, how often do we play with the other team parks the bus as must as these guys. I think they are doing ok

?

So we find ourselves at 37-37 at half time. Against a VFL side..... Slow, unskilled, unsure, ..... MFC are in for another very very poor year if our pre season form so far is any guide ( And lets face it, our pre season form has given us a very accurate guide as to our regular season fortunes for the last decade).

Need a MASSIVE lift in the second half.

The biggest problem I see is that they still take too long to make decisions.

Absolutely, too slow by mind, by hand and the first five steps of most players are in first gear, they need to jump straight to third and then fifth gear in that time.

Ordinary!

For those thinking we won't finish bottom 2 are kidding themselves

Decision making still seems a major issue.

Missing JKH or Kent up forward, for the I50's we've had we should've converted more. Tap work has been very underwhelming, feels like we got hammered in the clearances in the 2nd Q.

Said to myself when I logged on: "I thought that was below expectation but not that bad. I bet I log on to find slashed wrists everywhere."

I can clearly see why we will be bottom 4 again this year. Playing a VFL side and getting run all over the park. Typical.

All those plonkers going on about VFL side. Zaharakis, Goddard, Chapman and Daniher are not VFL players. Geez whiz.

Absolutely, too slow by mind, by hand and the first five steps of most players are in first gear, they need to jump straight to third and then fifth gear in that time.

Yep, it's stop-start madness! Timid footballers. They hold up play when it should play on, and they play on when they should hold it up. I won't name them we know who they are

I'm more disappointed at how many times we are handballing to a player in trouble

This is a huge problem.

Shocking effort!

Also Goddard is a genuine piece of [censored].

I am absolutely giving it to him over the fence, the [censored].

Said to myself when I logged on: "I thought that was below expectation but not that bad. I bet I log on to find slashed wrists everywhere."

Said to myself at half time, "that was absolute rubbish but it wont take long for the apologists to rock up trying to polish a turd"

pretty ordinary stuff, slow, poor decision making, poor disposal, lack of defence hopefully Roos can get these guys interested in playing the second half

I'm more disappointed at how many times we are handballing to a player in trouble

This annoys me, was the Melbourne of old!!

12 - 7 scores

22-19 i50s

71 - 58 CP's

192 - 159 Possies

Can people actually contribute something constructive instead of these single words criticisms.

Clearly we have to work on decision making under pressure and finishing inside 50. To me, they're the major talking points from the first half.
