This sums it up if its true.... Were was the leadership from our Captains & leadership group? Goodwin was saying the right things e.g. "haven't achieved anything yet" Very disappointing if this has occurred!

Below the response from the club as to why only Jones fronted the Presser ... at least they responded back!

What difference would have it made if all the players & coaching staff were at the presser? Are we expecting to hear a spanish inquisition? Strong clubs will deal with it internally & let the list mgt & trade deals etc do the talking! Im just as gutted & [censored] off @ the players & the leadership group of what occurred in the game vs the Pies...

2016- 10 wins 2017- 12 wins They have improved with strong away wins against top 8 sides.....However their lapses have hurt

Just as gutted & angry as all members are but..... what difference is it going to make if all the players & coaches were there? The captain has fronted up to take blame ect Strobg clubs will make the changes to their lists & keep it internal ..I'm sure Goody will be methodical & make those changes needed to improve...

Only coaching staff can do that after a review which can't happen only 24 hrs after season has finished.....As much we are all [censored] it requires a methodical approach... Still hurts though

Very guttered & missed opportunity once again! The only few positives are 2 more wins then 2016, Young list will improve, Won interstate against top 8 teams, our best was better than our best in 2016 and as good as the top teams The negatives, cannot sustain the intensity, stupid loses to freo, nth x2, leadership needs to be question as to why a team with all to play for rolled out that rubbish against the pies, need more mongrel! Will the coach/club release any statement for its members to address the missed opportunity?

A review is need on the capitulation & lack of intensity from our players which once again have failed! Some will say it's 2 more wins over 2016 but it's a failure & a missed opportunity for a finals birth! Our players melted & appears our leaders failed us in particular the pies game. Feeling guttered & fed up ... club needs to respond with what course /plans on addressing the issues!

Spot on..... Questions need to be asked of our leadership group & a review to identify the cause if such a disastrous capitulation!

Our anger & frustration should be aimed at the pathetic performance by the MFC! Destiny was in their hands & they blew it!

one thing we need is..... MONGREL!!!!!!!!!

Point is we beat both Ess & Wc... We have played far better footy than WC... WTF are they playing finals????

We actually beat freo, Nth & Coll we should have qualified well before our last game!

Why would any member want to renew?? 11 years of pain & yet again another failure! Who takes responsibility?

Looking like a typical script of the MFC for the last 50yrs I followed them! Continued heartbreak after heartbreak for its suffering members/supporters! Bar a miracle in the last qtr its just another failed chapter of the MFC failure!

Every team has injuries etc..... The games we lost Freo/Nth were winnable & should have secured a top 8 spot by now... There is a lack of mental toughness/high intensity which raises its ugly within our team, lets hope Goody can find the right players/leaders to erratic this or we will never be able to get to the standard of playing finals footy!

Team needed talent in 2014 ...All three have delivered, Both Salem & Tyson have been hit with injuries & Hunt was a steal with still room to improve.. Hindsight is one thing & who knows how Kelly would have developed in our club vs GWS which was far more advanced than us. Who knows we stil may get him LOL. Yesterdays performance is all about attitude & intensity!

Tackles 51 vs 70 sums it up! Tom Mac x1 Oscar Macx0 Hibbered x 0 Peddersonx 0 Tyson x 1 three tackles between 3 of our defenders.. disgraceful & pathetic when you consider your wanting to play finals

To take a Goodwin Quote "we haven't achieved anything yet" Just don't know what happens to this playing group & can't bring the intensity required for such a game that meant so much .. what makes them from being such s hard tackling team to laying their first tackle at the 11min mark if the 1st qtr? Why do our leaders go missing yet you see the leaders in Geelong , swans etc stand tall & marshal their troops?

Footy club needs to get more ruthless & trust its supporters at the gate! Stop selling home games to darwin...we ended up taking longer to get there on the plane than the crows yet our home game! Dosent excuse whats happened today but as a club we need too have every home advantage & valuable 4 points & until we learn to stand up on our own feet will never be successful...I know Hawks have won flags playing in TAS but thats less than an hour and weather conditions on par.

Were not ready in 2016..... I guess not ready in 2017! Seriously 2017 will be very disappointing if we don't play finals... Whats concerning & needs addressing is lack of strong leaders to act on our lack if intensity very early on in the game...To go without a tackle for 11 mins in such an important game...Been the same theme against Nth & Freo games...Should have wrapt up a spot by now in the 8!

Tale of 2 clubs.. Swans bring a game of intensity & get the job done to help secure a top 4 spot! Demons bring a game of no intensity & now lose control of their own destiny to play finals! Go figure....Leadership & Culture I guess!

Tackles are a result of intensity full stop! Intensity has to be both ways on attack & defending! Simply put it they were down hill skiers for the 1st qtr! How they turned up knowing whats at stake still asks the question what are our leaders doing? Strong leaders should have picked that up in the first 5 minutes & barked out the orders etc!

Bulldogs has also already qualified for finals & were playing in the west...

Just listened to Goodwin presser... No tackle until 11min into 1st qt....WTF Whos to blame here for the lack of intensity, leadership or coaching? Its baffling how the players would not want to bring the intensity!
