  1. This may have been said before but I would like to see Nathan Jones played forward. He is a reliable set shot, can win his own ball at stoppages and has some goal nous as evidenced in the game against Sydney at the SCG in 2019. It also spares me from watching him bomb it into the forward line
  2. If we have another year of missing finals we will also have a new coach. That may change his view again
  3. The Swimming Dee replied to Lord Nev's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Not worth debating. He will finish his career at West Coast
  4. Hahahahaha great finish to the quarter Dees. Dumb, dumb footy
  5. Joel Smith has zero football IQ
  6. May is a leader of men
  7. Langdon is an absolute star. Rivers - what a game!
  8. Is it a fair criticism to say that Viney cannot read the play ahead. He sees the ball and gets it or attempts to every time. Sometimes you need to make a judgement on what is likely to happen...not always go in head first. Maybe not the right thread for it...apologies if so
  9. Langdon is a beauty
  10. fair call mate. I was actually trying to defend him about the vision shown of him on tv. I think the cameras are selective and love to show a reaction or no reaction...whatever suits. I m just struggling with no real move when there is a run on against us
  11. Fair call mate but the run was really against us that quarter. Most coaches have a strategy to slow down the other team...I just don’t see any moves to try anything after the game starts...except say May forward which is frankly a dumb as hell move
  12. Yep and when Kossie get a chance of a snap - ‘this is what he loves‘...or ‘look at how great Kelly glides across the ground’. That kind of commentary is fawning crap. They should just call the game
  13. I agree he looks dumb when the flash to him but I think it always looks like that. My issue is the no plan B. I hate it how we never make a move
  14. It’s the MFC way. Take someone who is great at something and change it. Pickett looked like a great set shot when he got to the club also but our coaching staff have obviously tinkered with the routine
  15. Make a move after half time Goodwin you moron
  16. Melksham is a shadow of the player he was two years ago...soft as butter
  17. Take a bow Christian Petracca
  18. Yep that was rubbish. 2 goal turn around there
  19. Steven May killing it
  20. Yeah that was weak
  21. I reckon we will play him on the wing. The strategy seems to be to identify your best position and then play you somewhere else. It must be a laugh in the rooms each week when Goody explains it. Absolutely mind boggling!
  22. Yeah...That is a fair point. Maybe it was an overreaction. What a disappointing game - no system, no passion, no plan b...I am disgusted with last night
  23. These are my thoughts too. I’ve been a member for 25 years, joined my wife and family up and pay extra for GF guarantee. I live in Perth so get to see them live once per year. I’m done
