  1. With respect, we were moving the ball as quickly if not quicker in 2018 and our midfielders were kicking goals every week. 2018: ANB - 27 goals Jones, Harmes - 15 goals Brayshaw - 14 goals Gawn - 13 goals Oliver - 12 goals *EDIT* not including Trac as he was a forward. ANB could be lumped in with the forwards too but he was also a link player through the middle. Makes zero sense why this contribution from our most important players has regressed as significantly as it has.
  2. It is unrecognizable from 2018. Goodwin playing favourites has to stop. Brayshaw needs to be dropped indefinitely. Rivers and Salem at the very least MUST be part of the midfield rotation, they can use the footy and would offer a point of difference to the inside mids. Harmes has to tag and nothing else, the experiment off half back is over. Ben Mathews please stand up? What have you done to this group? Heads must roll.
  3. Footy is won and lost in the midfield - and ours is currently all at sea. To emphasize how enormous of an issue this has become, here is a summation of our midfield's contribution to the scoreboard so far this season. Trac - 7 goals Viney - 3 goals Brayshaw - 2 goals Harmes - 1 goal Oliver, Langdon, Gawn, Tomlinson, Vandenberg - 0 goals From 8 games, this is a diabolical return. Least damaging midfield in the comp. How do we fix this? Who do we move on?
  4. First time long time. Going to start by saying been a supporter for 30 years and have stuck fat through some of the most insipid performances year in year out. I'm as loyal as they come. But like many on here, something has simply got to give. It is obvious to everybody that 2018 was the residual value of Paul Roos' tenure, and Goodwin took all the credit. Even in 2018, we got smashed up by good teams. The vast majority of the list has gone backwards individually. We honestly must be one of the easiest teams to plan against - it's chaos ball or nothing. As soon as we drop off in defensive pressure like last night, we lost 100 times out of 100. This is as stark of a coaching issue as I can remember, the best teams have multiple different ways in which they can win. We have one. I'll continue supporting this mob as I know no other way, but the footy department needs an overhaul. I would be saying this even if we won last night. Build a footy department that will get the best out of this current crop before it's too late, please MFC. For the sake of all of the supporters who are increasingly becoming disinterested in the fortunes of this club.
  5. That's a stupid comment. We don't miss hogan, just everything that he offered, which we haven't looked close to replacing.
