Viney, Jones would even drop Salem to make a statement, assistant coaches and Goodwin enough is enough.

 

Viney might be the lowest IQ player in football history

Out: OMac, Smith, Jones, Melksham, Fritsch, Weid 

In: Hibberd, Lockhart,  Baker, Pickett, Bennell, TMac

Give us run and some fresh legs please and finally accept that Oscar and Jones should have just played their last game.

    It was a 22 player awful performance, it is always the coaches fault, remind me how many coaches in last few years?

    I have to agree with this, its on the players. There refusal to be in the game and up for the fight from the start is stark. no good starting try in teh second half. Had to be in teh first qtr with teh wind and put the game away and take teh sniff away from the opposition. Cant think of anyone who really gave it everything. Max maybe teh exception.

    Someone explain what Smith and Wagner did to get a game this week. 

    Wagner needs to be delisted at seasons end. 

    Smith is always the whipping boy but Viney and Jones get a pass because he is hard at it and gee we must get him to 300 well that will win us a flag.

    For the first time in a long time, I honestly don’t care. Not that it would have won us the game, but Lockhart instead of Smith (or more likely OMac) would have made a big difference.

    So whatever we post here, expect the opposite,

    The two that have to go are Oscar and Jones.  Neither should play again unless we absolutely have no choice.

    A few saying Weid should be dropped, but that's a bit silly.  Had a shocker but our ball use going forward was a joke.  He has runs on the board.

    Will they flick Smith as well?  Doesn't get much of it and still panics, but then I didn't think he lowered his colours to Papley.  Papley still got his hands on the footy a bit but I didn't think he was that damaging tonight.

    Who comes in?  Take your pick.  Pickett, Hannan and AVB will probably get a look in, but then so should Jay Lockhart.  Hibberd to come back in IF he is fit.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
