Why are we surprised?

Featured Replies

Really, why isveryone so surprised by this week?

No relacement for Neitz.

Poor drafting and development of KPP.

No original game plan, just copies of other teams.

No Plan B.

Poorly skilled players who continue to get games.

Poor leadership from the senior group.

These are issues that we've all known for several years, so really our current position shouldn't be that much of a surprise.

 

Neitz would of struggled tonight our midfield is to inconsistant, we got smashed in the engine room and it happens to often, down blame Brock he is 21 and on the up, it the guys mid 20's with 100 plus games that should be consistant good footballers but always go missing we we need them the most, not just last night it happens whenever we are under pressure.

Our rucks got a large number of hitouts and we finished with more midfield clearances. It was our lack of an additional key position marking option in the first half in particular which caused us a lot of grief. Whoever decided not to include players like Newton and Dunn for this game should have their heads examined. Why are opting for a team of old buggers when our season has been cactus for weeks. I would have accepted being flogged with young forwards like them at least getting experience for the future. It's hard to accept however, when an unfit mid size player is picked to replace your only power forward.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
