number 27

IMO it looks as tho the players have lost faith after the prelim. instead of analysing, dissecting, or even watching the prelim the coaches have doubled down on the game plan instead of reimagining or innovating. so many players out of form. we didn't handle the summer well no finals this year 6-8 wins if we are lucky. at this rate the worst is yet to come

of course I don't have evidence. in my opinion the team isn't balanced at the moment and could be due to the amount of debutantes in the first two rounds (that of course can be down to injuries) On reflection it feels the same as the first month or so last year, we didn't look settled, the game plan wasn't obvious. it felt like lots of players were in and out of the team, trying new players in different roles. We were playing too high and letting to many easy goals over the top. I haven't been to a live game yet this year so only watching on tv so can't really comment on whats happening on the ground. we looked better in patches last week but we look really underdone. Not sure what they have done to rectify the bomb it in the forward line, but I'm hoping in time it will become obvious I'm sticking fat, have no choice after all these years really. ill be at the saints game and hopefully things will have settled and we are playing attractive contested footy again.

I agree. I reckon he viewed it a 100 times and thats why we can't recognise the game plan in its current state. he does like to experiment in the first part of the season

you know something we don't?

he looks like he's pilling off his head

so where do we find the 47 goals that he kicked this year? my concern is that we will be 282 points worse off, brings us well back on %. we give these 282 points to Fremantle and it brings them into contention for the bottom part of the 8. Fremantle are not the basket case we think they are, they are a bigger club than MFC two years from now he will kick 100 goals in a season it will set us back, no doubt. keep at all cost. if we can....

could we be dumping Darwin for a home game in China?
