Sorry kids

First class thinking coach.

Dunkley can mark outstretched in front of his body, picking up kicks that would bounce in front of other players. I am scratching my head to think of the last Dee player to be able to do that. Maybe Gary Lyon?

I remember reading a story on how the Brayshaw bothers have a tradition of doing 100x100, metre sprints on Christmas Day. A top effort in the off season but I cannot relate that to not doing enough two way running as Goodwin says.

Club bigger than the individual.

Terrible stats for Viney, Brayshaw and Harmes.

I am somewhat optimistic If we finish the year having found Baker, Hore and one other as well as a fit May that will add four players to add to those coming back in. If we can do well in the 2019 draft we could be in shape for a good year in 2020. .

It explains the performance but does not point to a bright future for the young side. Many of the youngsters will not make it.

Centre line is an interesting battle.

Fantastic balance of pointing out weaknesses and keeping it as positive as possible.

Problem is we would not get much for them. Second round pick I reckon.

If correct that is very unprofessional and appalling coaching. No player should be gifted a position and if he is being gifted a game he should be played half forward-deep.

Yes, no doubt better than current best 22. Lets hope a few of the others prove me wrong.

Good analysis but I only only see the following automatic, established selections-Salem, Lever, May, Jetta, Hibberd, Melksham, None of the others are established senior players with the exception of Lewis. All the rest have been in and out for one reason or another.

Yes, I am probably saying it in the context of going forward and that it is a positive in that they are two players we would not have had in the best 22 going forward at the start of the year.

Baker Hore Best 22 now.

I think we are the most 'confidence" reliant side in the competition and think this should be explored if it has not already by a professional. Perhaps it comes from a combined lack of individual confidence which is on display when we play poorly. Conversely when we hit our straps we play like few others. Its as if our guys are saying," wow, we are better than I thought. It was on display again today,

Are you keeping Spargo SPC

I was intrigued watching Stretch kick beautifully from 40 plus out in the last. It sailed through. I did not think he had the distance and wonder why he always does dinky kicks to little benefit. Tell him to take the game on and kick it long to advantage.

Baker could be one of our best in a year or two. Not racking up possessions yet but it will come. I am a massive fan and just hope we have someone who can relate to his game style and bring the best out of him. Future star.

He looked totally disillusioned today. I hope he/we sort it out.

Someone should have a conversation with Brad Scott as an assistant. Hard line at the same time a players man.

Do you think that means he would have played exactly like he did at Casey as he would have in the Giants match. Do you think the game would have played out exactly as it did at Casey, Do you think he would have played the same role as at Casey. Wow. Beyond that I do not understand your support of Spargo.

What struck me is that is exactly what I imagined he would say. Much like Shorten, it all sounds pre planned.

I know we did not go inside 50 too much early on but big Preuss would have provided a target today as well as a much needed physical presence. It was a no brainer. Spargo is the worst small man I have seen at MFC since a young Beams was selected in the 2000 Final.

I like the fact you appear angry. We often forget that people are getting paid good money to make these decisions that seem odd to many hard core footy supporters. I just do not accept we have talented people in position of power in both the footy and administration departments. And yet they have their supporters here. Only this week someone here told me I should be concentrating on supporting the team today and not making comment about our lack of a training facility. As if I/we are not capable of doing both things at once..
