    I get that the majority think the noise of tracc when planking is irrelevant. 

    I think it indicates his mental weaknesses, immaturity and disrespect to team mates and the trainers.

    Please don't call me nuts, or a nuffie or suggest I am not part of the "we" in this forum. They are personal attacks. If you can't see that then you have become desensitised to how you treat others..Those names are borderline nasty, I will ask those throwing them out, to not do it. Even if with some humorous intention.

    @BAMF

    Kev your original and some following comments were correct.

    BUT it is a very nuanced observation.

    There are many features of the exercise which we are all still unsure of and indeed like any comments need to be taken in context and awareness of intent.

    You are dead right about the need for positive behaviour and attitude to be displayed as an instinctive action.

    There is nothing worse than the bowed head, the hands on hips , knees etc.There is also the need for disappointment and negative reality displayed at times so the context must always be considered.

    i have adopted the name dpositive for that reason and hope I always offer positive support, I do so in advising you to give up. It was a good point well put you don't have to justify it any further.

    That's the way mate, keep attacking. 

    You're have no understanding of the other.

    Who is olisik or Dr D?

    Must be only addressing your inner circle.

    Mate, I have a right to express myself on this open forum, without the constant attacks.

    But well done, your circle must be getting chuffed about your inputs.

    So much wisdom, to impart!

    Can't wait for the next snipe.

     

    nuffie

    A term used to describe people that are mentally retarded (or just plain stupid). Derived from the term nuff nuff.

    I’m jealous that you don’t know who Olisik or Dr.D is tbh

    But you completely mistook my comment. If you read carefully, you would know that I didn’t attack you, I attacked your comment (or rather, I took the mickey out of it).

    There’s a difference between criticism of a post and criticism of the poster. I clearly made no remarks towards you mate, just your post. You’re not a nuffie. 
     

    But your post on the other hand…. ?

    As a leader, could be setting an example.

    Do we want the lot of them carrying on.

    He could be pushing himself more, not just getting through.

    Lead by example, train as you would play.

    Then take the training into game day.

    Sorry but this is a very silly thread.

    Is it, why comment then?

    Again, how would it be if all expressed discomfort with an exercise?

    What is it like for team mates close to him who may also be struggling?

    I suggest he has some mental weaknesses and immaturity. 

    I am happy to discuss, but one liners like yours are just going to annoy those who are like you in opinion and would prefer a thread like this being forgotten because of its triviality.

    You will upset my fan base!

    Have you ever physically exerted yourself to the point of exhaustion? I have and I swore a lot, when it came to action time it was game face on, no weakness or immaturity. As we witnessed last night, Petracca is a professional. 

    Not an attack Kev, you’re obviously entitled to your opinion.

    He wasn’t exhausted,  he was bunging it in on for the camera and, I thought, displaying his subconscious attitude to effort.

    He had a good game, and is a match winner for us. Just believe he still has plenty of growth.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
