    I don’t usually agree with you @joeboy but you’re bang on today.  Gawn was disappointing around field, jumped one handed at the ball all day

    Jetta - Not Nev's best

    Lever - Horrible first game

    Hibberd - Came into it

    Hunt - Got better

    McDonald - Solid

    Jones - effectiveness of disposal?

    Gawn - Good game

    Oliver - Love

    Vince - Came into it 

    Salem - Looked good early

    Neal-Bullen - Didn't do enough

    Lewis - Undisciplined 

    Petracca - showed a lot

    Pedersen - Not his best

    Harmes - Not convinced 

    Fritsch - Not there yet

    Garlett - Quiet

    Hogan - Worked hard

    Hannan - Didn't do enough

    Melksham -  Didn't do enough

     

    We need to think seriously about whether we can play Jones, Lewis & Vince in the same side.

    Agree with the review on Melksham. His preseason form went completely missing.

    Harmes was disappointing for mine, not sure if he'll ever go to another level.

    Pedo tried hard all day and was unlucky a few times.

    Gawn was probably BoG if he had kicked that. Super game.

    Jones worked himself back into it I thought.

    Lever had a mare for the first half but his second was much better.

  • Quote

    Goodwin - in the hotseat??

    We got outcoached. They forced lever to play 1/1 and cleverly had toohey as a spare man running out of the backline. We stuggled to combat some of these strategies. When Scott made a move, it worked. Goody needs a few good wins under his belt pronto or he will be on the front page of the hun with the footy journos flinging butt mud at him.

    I think Frost is a better option than Wagner. His run would have been something we could have used today.

    Goodwin - No Game Plan. 

    Lewis - No leadership here

    Maynard - Still VFL standard

    Tyson & Brayshaw - Should have played

    Maynard - Massive responsibility on his shoulders for a guy who has played under 5 games.  How can you say he is VFL standard?  Building a great foundation.

     

    Harmes - Had a good 2nd half

    Harsh on Maynard, Harmes and Hannan.

    Worse analysis ever Joe! Obviously watched the game on TV and wasn't sitting in the crowd looking at the entire MCG!

    Jones often gets hard, contested ball with little assistance which tends to lead to what is mentioned above.

    Jones also often plays on without thought and without looking at the options he has available.  It's one of his biggest flaws, in particular since he's the captain.

    Jones was not the problem today. Goodwin had a shocker

    Agree here. Cats attacked through the centre all game and either the Coach or so called team leaders on ground did not cover this important part of the ground. Plenty of Cat's goals came from loose players in centre corridor and we did not respond to cover that area.

    Also the problem is we have many lazy players who do not work hard enough both ways

    Frosty  a big body and key back to free Lever to play the sweeper roll. We would be structured better. Can break the lines.

    Tyson is an under rated inside mid  not selected today we were one less experience onballer to help Petracca and Jones. Would have been the difference l believe.    At least Frosty  and Dom have heart !   

    Goodwin, what were you thinking.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
