Inability to kick in the wind
This is what worries me about the future of this club. I wonder how many of our supporters are baby boomers. We followed the club of our dads. Our lack of success is not bringing in many new followers.

NON MFC: Round 16
If they do, they havent followed this club for long.

NON MFC: Round 16
Agreed. Did they forget dads day?

NON MFC: Round 16
Oh that old necessity of Dees supporters pulling out the old math books and going over the permutations and combinations of other team results to ascertain any finals action.

That reminds me of Dame Edna interviewing meatloaf. He was addressed as Mr loaf?

Are We The Mentally Weakest Side Ever?
I get where you are coming from. Most supporters overate the players level of skill. Its part of the fun and passion of footy. The troubling aspect of the swannies game was the so much of the time there was footage of players not chasing. Also too many tackles were shrugged off. This isnt about level of skill. Anyone can run and tackle. Did it look like we gave it everything we had so as to secure a spot in the finals of the worlds greatest game? Did not look like it to me.

Are We The Mentally Weakest Side Ever?
We certainly dont seem to learn very quickly or grow from our previous errors. With the exception of a few and we all know who they are, most of these blokes turn up for a paycheque and thats it. Dont worry about us supporters who cobble enough for a membership. Oh well I guess thats on us.

Rising Stars vs the Dees
This seems very accurate with Weid and Trac being 2 that come to mind. We can't be alone though. Jackson seems an exception thank goodness.

FB shaming of Mfc players & Coaches
I dont use facebook but public naming and shaming players on such a major social platform is not good. But I suppose its kniw different to what mpi st of us (guilty as charged) have done here on demonland. There are a few posters much more levelled headed than myself thay do refrain from dissing players. Perhaps players should not come to demonland but its harder for them to avoid fb. Its not easy for supporters of this club not to get frustrated and hence call out non performers. I havent any answers but I having vented I feel better. Much like naming players after that horrible swans loss. I could say Ill try not to do it but I know I probably still will.

Christian Petracca's 100th Game
Tx Trac for all your passion and hard work. Congrats.

TRADES, DELIST, PROMOTE
Agree with all these players but would add Weid. Its sad its such a small number.

TRADES, DELIST, PROMOTE
Just no.

Are We The Mentally Weakest Side Ever?
I would suggest rocking up to this northern city a couple hours before the siren reflects poor prep. Agreed on flakey skills. Our tackles didnt stick, players didnt chase, poor positioning and shocking instinctive hospital airtime handballs when we had a breeze behind us. The swans flooding our frwd zone when we had the wind didnt help.

CHANGES: Rd 16 vs Fremantle
Especially when your down to only 2 disposals for the whole game. At the very least you can lay a few heavy tackles to get involved.
-
Swans in Cairns for 2 days vs Demons less than 5 hours - why?
Agreed. I reckon this would impact any team. We looked off at first bounce. Game prep....mind set is crucial.
-
Swans in Cairns for 2 days vs Demons less than 5 hours - why?
Reminds me of 2018 and not spending enough time in Perth.

CHANGES: Rd 16 vs Fremantle
Agreed he gets another for sure. I was dissappointed he and melksham laid zero tackles though. When your struggling to impact tackling is what you start with.

POSTGAME: Rd 15 vs Sydney
Id be surprised if Gawn, Trac, Oliver and May have not considered leaving. Another season down the toilet. Thanks to the above players and a shout out to Langdon. I really do wonder at times like this about the future of this club. I can imagine another decade of this and then most of us just pack it in. And rightly so. There is a lot of anger in many posts and I really think after that insipid shambles it is totally justified. Its a tough call because I feel the best way to send a message is to not renew our mships but we shoot ourselves in the foot.
