Missing a couple?

McLean - not captain's performance

It kills me to say, but you are spot on.

Mind you, nobody else in the leadership group did anything to inspire really.

Brock is still the pick of the bunch, but he had a dirty night. Can't wait to see what he does next week, it will be a true test of character for someone who has plenty of it.

Actually thought Frawley did a couple of nice things.

Petterd's behind did a good job warming the bench for Yze.

Those players are the only ones who can hold their heads up. The rest were horrible.

Drop half the team........

And replace them with, what exactly?

I don't disagree with you assessment but the reality is this is apparently, and according to learned minds around here, just about our best.

To me skills are a problem but it was the attitude that completely sucked :angry:

Better still, leave the team unchanged every week to guarantee a priority draft pick.

I think we should raise a white flag from the dressing rooms before the bounce next Friday against Essendon, and let everyone go home, it could be very very ugly, then again they might decide to try next week, who knows, who cares

Ward - hither and thither

Carroll - played out of position

Bizzell - good game

Bell - improved over time

Bate - half of game is brilliant other half (1%ers) is crap

Wheatley - had a go

Yze - pathetic

Pickett - sporadic

Davey - in and out of the game

Green - little value

White - whatever

Johnson - just ok

Holland - gave his utmost

Petterd - showed promise

Frawley - couple of nice things....but next year

Bruce - not impressed

McDonald - very quiet

McLean - not great

Godfrey - tried his hardest

Sylvia - impressed with improvement

occo u have just bloody lost my respect for you saying mclean should be playing VFL!

as bizarre as this is for me to say this..I think ti ought to be pointed ought that Ooze was never going to put in much of an effort...he's obviously carrying more than a niggly and should never have even been picked 9 we all know who should have been but shhhh !! )

I'll allow OOze a free pass on this game..

now as to most of the others....well !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted

in defence of Brocky he was obviously gang hunted from the first bounce.. Clever ploy by Wallace..it WORKED !! I said days ago dont underestimate Wallace's ability to pull something out of the hat.. Danners needs a hat !!

Brocky had a bad day at the office.. and he will be first to admit it.....sh!t he had plenty of company tonight !!

do you mean that occo ever had it? :wacko:

It would help if brock had some shepard's off the ball like WCE do for judd.

Brownlow Bruce you seem to always want to bag brock out, i know you love bruce and people like myself and others think brock is a better captain option than bruce, but seriously mate, it seems every post you now do you bag out brock.

All it seems to do is show a massive pettyness on your behalf.

What was your rating of Bruce?

Mclean- worst game ive seen him play.

Bruce- kicking still a problem, should never be played down back.

Posted
Brock Mclean- not captain material

-Silly free kicks

lucky he had a better second half..... all i can say....

Daniel Bell-

out of sorts

worst kicking effort

Brock copped a heavy tag and was gang raped from the first bounce.

Judd would even find it hard at melbourne with no-one to shephard for him, to give him precision handballs and kicks.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
