[joeboy 3,166]

N.Jones - dynamic and inspiring
Dunn - lost the edge
Hogan - underperformed and overwhelmed
Watts - the bipolar performance
Toumpas - slow but creative
Viney - was almost valuable
Lumumba - successfully made statement
Brayshaw - eye catching display
Gawn - cause for optimism
Cross - brave and professional
Newton - just a game
Garland - never imbued confidence
Pedersen - failed to impose
Vince - impressive and prolific
McDonald - believing own publicity
Riley - rough but effective
Garlett - needed more involvement
Howe - cameo performances again
Jetta - slow and indecisive
M.Jones - had no impact
Fitzpatrick - same as Watts
vandenBerg - quiet before injury

[chook fowler 19,551]

Agree that Garlett needs to be in the game for more than 2 minutes.

I'm not sure what sort of statement Lamumba made.

[Dee-licious 1,954]

Good work. Always tough to do this week in week out. Vanders was going a lot of enforcing before he was subbed out. Though McDonald picked up once he got off Cloke and worked his way back in - good learning game from him.

[dazzledavey36 55,360]

Vandenberg??

What part of the 13 disposals at half time was quite?

[Earl Hood 6,101]

Agree that Garlett needs to be in the game for more than 2 minutes.

I'm not sure what sort of statement Lamumba made.

Crazy Horse Lumumba in the first half, unbelievable stuff early. Redeemed himself in the second half somewhat.

I generally look forward to the 3 word descriptions, but this one is just too much. To described jack watts as a "bipolar performances" is absurd, apart from being hugely insulting about this very unfortunate condition. The Regs should censor this immediately

One of my relatives is bipolar, and I can tell you Jack Watts is so far away from bipolar that it is not funny. If this poster is determined to insult our number one draft pick, thereby ensuring he leave, then it may give him varcarious pleasure, but it makes this demon suppiorter extremely angry. All it will do is ensure he leaves. God we shoot ourselves in the foot sometimes.

It's just a word, mate.

The earth is bipolar.

[robbiefrom13 893]

It's just a word, mate.

The earth is bipolar.

that was not what you meant.

If it was, your three word summary was that Watts has a head and feet. Well, come to think of it...

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

Vanders was having a major impact and losing him hurt.

lumumba was crazy early on.

[old dee 23,872]

Joe I think you have been very generous tonight.

[Bobby McKenzie 2,387]

Joe I think you have been very generous tonight.

I don't! Comment about Watts and Jack Fitzpatrick in very poor taste.

[Farmer 889]

I don't! Comment about Watts and Jack Fitzgerald in very poor taste.

I agree. Both morally objectionable and in any event it makes no sense.

[Little Richard 6,265]

Fitzgerald?

[dee-luded 2,959]

Fitzgerald?

After 100 games,i see the term "career best tackle".one for the ages.

[faultydet 7,619]

Jesus some of you people sook about the smallest things.

[TGR 1,367]

Toumpas - decision-making non-existent

Viney - played on one (leg)

Lumumba - took em on

Brayshaw - rye sing star

Gawn - our only ruck

Cross - our best hands

Garland - psychologically looking backward

Pedersen - absolute shocking day (decision-making and execution)

Vince - The joker's rising

McDonald - Not matched up (well)

Garlett - Pagan's paddock king

Fitzpatrick - worth persevering with

vandenBerg - impacted before injury

Melbourne - should have won

Melbourne - handball A class

Collingwood - early September exit

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,408]

I don't think Tmac is that way inclined "believing own publicity". He got beaten fair and square by a rampaging Cloke. In 8 weeks time we play the Pies again and he gets a chance at redemption.

I'm bipolar and I think the comment is very humorous. Loosen up gang.

I like this list better; although I thought Fitzy will keep his place because his man did nothing. Dunn was OK on Cloke, considering one of his three goals was from a very poor decision. Totally agree that Toumpas is coming along slowly.

[junk 342]

The loss to the pies was honourable one,consider they won a premiership in 1990 ( a Roos type comparison everytime we lose).Next year should be good (6-8 wins) Frost,Salem,Petracca,Neal-Bulleen,Kent,M.White,Vanderberg,Stretch all available should improve our

stocks,plus No.3 or 4 draft pick.Who does the club get rid of? The Dees in the past have got rid of players only to be replaced by the same sort of players,we must try harder to get the fringe players up to scratch otherwise we will end up with a relatively inexperience

reserves side and we all know what effect that has on the club in time of senior players getting injured.

[beelzebub 23,383]

the one in 2010 not worth considering ?

Why not 6-8 wins this year? We already have three, have played most of the top of the ladder, have most of the rest of our games against those in the lower half of the ladder. Do you really think we cant get three more wins this year?

I would be disappointed if we didn't beat StKilda at least once (we should win twice), and we should beat Carlton and Brisbane. There is three or four right there.

[junk 342]

Chris don't worry about being disappointed with losses that shouldn't happen,as a mfc supporter for 50 yrs I am used to it.
