The Swimming Dee

Forget the umpires, we suck. No skills, no fitness, crap game plan and guys like OMac running around

OMac - get off!

Just sit him on the bench for the last quarter. I’m convinced we would be better off

I bloody hate it when the opposition wins a free kick and 2 or 3 players stand on the mark looking at each other...poor coaching

Is that 6 goals kicked on OMac? Serious question? I’ve seen him play some bad games but this is right up there. Zero intent...he ain’t an AFL footballer

OMac is no good. Play your man

I like the idea of playing Max forward as much as we play Preuss there. Only while we have Sam out of the team. Max’s marking is exceptional!

The lack of anything from him just seems so strange to me. I honesty cannot get my head around it

I agree totally agree with you Binman. This was in fact my criticism of the club in the online member review and is as much a disappointment to me as the on field performance. I had no issue with Pert when he was employed as CEO as some here did. Since then though he has been a ghost. Surely he should be talking to members in such a disappointing season. I live in WA, am a long time member and the communication is terrible. Our website is laughable!

Our website sucks

I said that the communication from the club to members this year has been appalling. Have not heard boo from our CEO. You’d hardly know he works at MFC

The season was already gone before last night. A disappointing loss but with more reinforcements back next week we will have a much better second half of the year. agree with all your points above

I really hope he has a big night because I’ve always been a fan...been very disappointing though

Forget the Spargo talk. The bloke that is luckiest to hold his spot in the team is Garlett

Have you seen him play? Who cares what he looks like? When he was at Adelaide he was selected in the All Australian squad and was playing as an elite intercept defender...probably the best young defender in the competition...and you want to talk about his complexion. Maybe you prefer the Brent Moloney types, tanned and with big muscles. I for one cannot wait to have Jake back in the side. He is going to be a very good player for us for a very long time.

Spot on Onion, they are similar in many ways...power forwards that could dominate but don't. I hope those words don't come back to bite us on Saturday.

Walker is and always has been an average footballer. I’d be more worried about Tom Lynch he is a gun!

Viney is a very average footballer at the moment. IMO he is also not a leader. I’d love to see Lever get the gig in a year or two...he is all class

Don’t even look as though we are trying. This is disgraceful

Hopefully he gets a run at it DV8. He has been very unlucky until now. All the best to yourself

Simpson is all class imo

Yes he did - aggressively. Good Captain’s act

I agree that Smith provided a good target. Hopefully he is available for selection next week, the poor bloke just cannot get a clean run at it

6 - Gawn. The most dominant ruck game I have ever witnessed live. He destroyed two ruckmen, both at the coal face and around the ground. Sometimes I think we do not celebrate his greatness...he is a special player! Maybe the best player we have had in the last 10 years 5 - Hunt. A revelation as a forward. He has resurrected his career at the MFC and I am happy for him 4 - Hore. A very good intercept defender. He reads the ball so well in the air and has real courage. Has cleaned up his disposal also 3 - Harmes. Becoming our most versatile midfielder 2 - Oliver. Messy but provided great forward drive and I love the bloke. He will get better. Easy to forget he is so young 1 - Frost. A flawed genius. The chase, tackle on petrucelli, followed by the kick out of bounds sums him up. Great effort though

The most risk averse player in our team. The stalling is momentum killing especially as he is used on the wing which is a link position
