  1. Touche Macca and one other thing tea leaves post didn't provide was that Brownlow votes only tell one half of the story, not to say that he was still/ STILL our best player in many other games which we lost which paints a different picture of his performances in context!
  2. I'm dumbfounded !! here we have our current B&F winner, hard in and under ( something we ah... lack) and by the sounds of it many of you are just happy to say see ya! Gees no wonder our club is struggling! Over and out for the night sheeesh!
  3. Care to elaborate just a fraction on this oh so profound post?
  4. Can anyone categorically say that BM has spat the dummy as a result of his treatment? Can anyone out there say for fact they know intrinsically that he has spat the dummy? Because if no one can then reality is that he must be given the benefit of the doubt in my book!
  5. Yep the same club! And to restate Brett Moloney did take responsibility for not only himself but also mentoring the younger dees with his camps, The same BM who stuffed up for the incident with Booze took his medicine and still found himself "On the Outer" The same BM who has struggled against a flawed football plan that God knows will be found wanting by the time the footy dept actually works out what, how, when and who can actually carry it out ! BM will return bigger bolder and better than ever. And who will start whinging then ? eh? Belief in Neeld, his game plan and people management ?? Well this jury is well and truly OUT on that one!
  6. You don't win Best and Fairests unless you have an outstanding year AGAINST ALL SIDES! want to try again?
  7. If true NOT HAPPY has been treated with disdain, clearance king, hard ball gets, if we haven't done enough to retain and unless serious issues emerge this one will come back and well and trully bite us hard on the rump! As a member, I'll be asking some pretty big questions! Form is temporary class is permanent. Remember, REMEMBER this is our current best and fairest winner and one of the precious few who goes in and gets the agate. Aghast at this stage!!
  8. I cannot see any reason for not playing Fitzpatrick and Gyberts in this final game. Unless serious issues are appararent both should play! After nearly a month of consistent footy reward effort and benchmark performance.
  9. The fact that truckloads of Cash had nothing at all to do with his decision to join is inconsequential also I spose! To understand motivation and the relationship between personality and on methods of motivation is to understand that there is no " one style of motivation" and the ability to perform on the day. My response made earlier is a personal reflection of how to me the buildup of the game from whence this material was gathered did little which would arouse and or heighten my external sensory modes. So yeah the "Killagrew" model worked probably better for me when I played BUT, this method is not conducive to all, and nor should it be. At this level the so called Neeld scary stare is nothing more than apparition, It did not appear natural and if it does not appear natural, then, hence my comment. Scared? Nah not by a long shot! and not sure scared is the way to go either! Motivational? well maybe for some and for a quarter. What you really want is internal motivation and tools to allow for peak performance. Can a coach bring these qualities out ? Yep. The real question is has Neeld been succesful in motivating players towards consistent performance? That is the real burning question!
  10. Wouldn't go that far and ''The Rant" still has a place but IMV from what this is presented as, is passionless and bland. Neeld not "Scary" at all! Not that you want Scary all the time either! Having witnessed some ultra inspiring motivations from Swooper Northey and Dare I say it Neal Daniher, this bloke isn't even in the same league as a motivator and that, after all is what helps win games of footy!
  11. How singularly uninspiring/unimaginative and morose. No wonder we cant get motivated, no wonder we are where we are! Pffft.
  12. Extremely poor form to knock any player who clearly is injured. I have been a critic of Morton and his game style but I draw the line at jeering a player who is injured. This reflects very badly on the individual and says plenty about some supporters. I hope Cale Morton recovers quickly but I still maintain I don't like and never have his game style and football approach.
  13. Surely not going into the game with just Spencer in the ruck?? Oh No there is yet another possibility...... Lynden Dunn. If so bad bad move Fitzy deserves and needs a game!
  14. And just another reason to have kept "Juice" 25 games for 35 goals people not bad from a bloke who never ever got an extended run!! Ah well what could have been! Eh
  15. First two legs of super six in!
  16. Not in the least bit concerned. You know who this will reflect poorly on? Brock! You know if the AFL decide to investigate further who they will speak to? Brock! You know if and when they talk to him they will request evidence of any substance and when they find none who will be well and trully in the gun? Brock! You know how the club will react to this baseless supposition and who they in turn will seek possible damages against? Brock! You know Carlton will be filthy because it creates unwanted heat on them trying( in vain to reach finals) and who in turn will be seen as the main fault? Brock! and finally, who will be seen as having an agenda which ultimately can come back to bite in the rest of his footy life? Brock!
  17. I like Gysberts, always have. His first games were really promising, run, carry, spread, fearless and with a touch of class. Since that time he has had a frustrating run with some serious injuries. I thought his game on the weekend displayed a solid return to form and fitness. I would find it astounding if he were overlooked again and would question the logic of selection. On the other hand we have Morton. Morton did some nice things as he does, but in reality it all comes back to his appetite for contested ball. He gives the impression he is apprehensive about having to get his own ball and as long as he continues to have lingering doubts, I believe the selectors will also have "Lingering doubts". I think his progress hasn't only halted but has in fact deteriorated because of this single factor. The game at this level is minutely dissected. Opposition analysts sieze on every weakness and will plot relentlessly to expose players and their inabilities. I believe Morton has well and trully been nutted out. Until he is able to lose apprehension he will, I believe stay at Casey. I saw one very poor effort which cost a goal. And remember this is Frankston perrenial VFL cellar dwellers. Nup not up to it, Yet!! Equally I will be astounded if he is included this week! Having said that anything's possible!
  18. WHY IS THE LIST INCOMPLETE SEEMS A FEW MORE CAN BE ADDED!
  19. Yep couldn't agree more!!
  20. And how many times have we had the chance to get the coaching appointment right??
  21. Anyone who thinks Morton should come in should look at the Frankston game.Then read Clint Bizkits appraisal elsewhere in game thread. Then put that into context with the contested possesion count in the North game! A stat which shows we were slaughtered! So some want to put a bloke in who is so far outside i.e uncontested you need a telescope to see him to address our inside contested possesion problem?? The game aint won with outside runners, but with inside grunters who run and carry! Get Real! My Inns: Fitzpatrick, Gysberts, Couch ( wouldn't have dropped him in the first place) and Watts Outs : Seller , Dunne, Strauss, Spencer That's for a start
  22. Hnmm interesting Still maintain, we should have kept "JUICE" !
  23. I would be all for Paul Chapman, kicked 3 today and is the type of player we need Now! Got another one for you as well Simon Hogan who can't crack it for a senior game at Geelong, quick, smart ball gatherer and user!
  24. And from Clint Bizkit today.. "Extremely soft effort by Morton in defence allows Frankston to kick a goal." Says it all.... LOL, wouldn't get anyone to trade if you chucked in a hundred bottles of vintage "Grange Hermitage" to sweeten the deal!
