Robbo Endorses Riley

Featured Replies

 

Haha.

At least he's true to his word re: supporting whoever is coach, but you'd think he would have learned :P

"The only way we're going to get through this is together and next year we'll be together still - there won't be huge changes, there won't be culling of lists.

"It's pretty much going to be the same guys and we have to fix it up ourselves,

:o

 

I was thinking the same

Riley is GGGGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Poor Robbo, doesnt realize that he is to blame for ND sacking/ leaving :)

joke people

Agreed.

Comfort zones are a terrible thing.


If we put in some good performances in the games he's coaching then there is no reason why we shouldn't consider him. I'm not sure it was the best thing for Robbo to do to endorse Reilly for next year, the players need to be able to just have faith in the board that they will reach the right decision and they must bear it.

I couldn't really give a stuff if Robbo endorses the coach or not! As suggested earlier in the thread, maybe he is part of the problem.

First he endorses Daniher, only for him to resign, now he has endorsed Riley. If the new MFC coach was to be a boot, i wouldn't be surprised if Robbo came out and said that he endorses the boot as well.

We could have 3 separate endorsements from Robbo within 3 months.

"It's pretty much going to be the same guys and we have to fix it up ourselves," Robertson said.

You are kidding yourself Robbo.

It's cull o'clock.

 

It's irrelevant who the players endorse, they are the last group of people who should have a say.


Robbo's naivety may and should come back to haunt him. A team touted as top 4, yet we are 2nd last on the ladder and will finish in the bottom 2-3. Heads will roll as they should, and for a player to say that no drastic action will be taken (implying no action needs to be taken) is very disconcerting.

Too many players at the MFC fully understand that playing football is their job. Usually what happens when u fail, is you get sacked. No major changes Robbo??? LOL, mate for that ignorance, i wouldn't mind you being threatened to have your head put on the chopping block.

What else is he going to say? "Yeah, not many of us are going to be here next year".

If you're trying to take notice of what any of them say, you're kidding yourself.

Bruce: We let down the coach

McLean: We let down the coach

Green: We let down the coach

Robbo: We let down the coach

White: We let down the coach

Davey: We let down the coach

I'm beginning to think I let down the coach. Oh, wait:

Gardiner: The supporters have let us down.

Damn.

  • 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.
