Brad Green kicked 6 goals against Port Melbourne today,the best defenders in the VFL,what did Cook do? Green is ready for the next step,that's what it takes and that's where Cook's game needs to get to.

He's done nothing at VFL level to justify an AFL debut. He would get absolutely mauled by AFL defenders when he can't fire consistently against VFL DEFENDERS!!! And then there is the delivery inside 50 from our mids!!! He's not a Patton or Cameron who's good enough to play straight away.

After 1/4 time we won the game by a point,although their poor kicking flattered us.I long for the day when we get off to a great start,even GWS had 3 goals on the board before we pulled our fingers out. This was all about experimentation with Garland/Rivers Forward and Watts/Dunn Back and Moloney the sub,harding trying to win the game!!! Bail's kicking is shocking,Magner is tired/out of position and Trengove gives us nothing.

Whitfield had a shocker on Friday against Metro,he'd want to show more on Wednesday. Maybe GWS will "let" Gold Coast win in round 20 to secure pick 1 and take Grundy,they seriously need him with Bogan on the way out. Our best case scenario would be Grundy @ pick 3 and Viney @ pick 22 ish.Grundy will slot right in when Russian finishes and Gawn is an unknown quantity at this stage. I'd still be happy with Viney and Grundy at picks 3 & 4.

Well done Tmac,well deserved. Really came of age against Nick Rewoldt.

Yes.

I was Pi55ed off at the time,but who cares now,move on. Had we kept Tom,we wouldn't have Mitch and 2 early picks. WE WON!!!!!!!!

A very poor coaching decision to put 2 players behind the ball in the first quarter,allowing the Pies an extra 2 players at each contest.They killed us around the stoppages for this reason and just kicked over our spare 2's heads for goals. This mistake was rectified at 1/4 time when we went man on man and from then on,we lost the game by 7 POINTS!!!!!!!

He also said he hates seeing guys just happy to be on an AFL list. Wonder who he's talking about?

I'd love a "no change" after that performance but Chip comes in for some poor bugger. Sammy has pulled up well at recovery this morning according to Grimes.

I just watched the replay,it's been so long since we had 22 contributors.The usual suspects always get bagged every week but tonight every player played their role. Watts back and Garlo forward,great move and there will be times when they switch to give us versatility. We are crying out for a small forward,we have no-one crumbing the packs,maybe it's Davey's only role left,parking himself under Mitch's hands and not leaving the F50.

So proud of the boys,Amazing!!! 85 tackles,great pressure all night. Loved Riv,Nicho,Garlo and JT's game. Bloody hell,i'm pumped!

The fitter team will win in these conditions. Good to see Hirdy and Bomber $hitting themselves though!!!

I'd be fuming if we're playing injured players when we're getting hammererered every week.

Sheedy said this week he wants pick 1,so we'll have to spend pick 2 on Viney.

Yes i agree,Grimes to Casey.In a pure footbal sense,he's the worst captain the MFC has ever had.

C'mon guys,we're not ready to win games yet,quarters yes-games NO! We were in the game at 3QT and that's a huge improvement after the 100 point smashing we've just come off and most other games this year. At least we used the whole ground today,not just the boundary that Neeld started with. We have found another player in Blease,love his run & carry,other finds this year are Mitch Clark,Tommy Mac,James Magner. We are on the right track but to expect wins now is just ludicrous! I really hope Beamer goes at the end of the year,keep exploring your Free Agent options. After the week we've had in the media,today was a step in the right direction,maybe,just maybe David King,Robbo and Caroline Wilson will shut their huge mouths for a minute.

Trengove was running with Simpson in the 2nd quarter and kept him to 4 disposals.

Ahhh Mitch,we just need to get the ball into his hands,he does the rest. Loving Sammy's run & carry. Jones has 8 disposals to half time and Moloney,Magner,Jordie & Howe have 7 each-these 5 need huge 2nd halves. Losing CP 76-72 and Tackles 39-32.

3 stupid mistakes for 3 goals. Winning the CP 40-38 but 14 tackles isn't enough. Someone get on Simpson,before he racks up 40.

Ok,20 minutes in,Bail kicks to Robinson for a GOAL,stupid mistake BAIL!!!

Spot on,Bail is our biggest downhill skiier and lays 1 tackle a game.

Let's forget about winning games and concentrate on winning quarters at the moment,we've won 4 from 32 quarters so far. The coaching staff should demand 100 tackles this week at least because if we don't have the ball and we aren't tackling,we're watching. Jack Watts must play at CHB ON the CHF all day.

Mark Neeld is the right man for the job,it's the pissweak players who don't like hard work,they all should don their skirts and play for the Vixens next year,they'll have nothing to fear as there's no tackling in Netball. Under Bailey,yes we won 8 games last year but we'd win by 100 and lose by 100,we'd beat the bottom 8 teams and lose to the top 8 teams,we'd never win a final under Bailey with his one way game style. Can't you guys see-OUR PLAYERS LOVED BAILEY'S STYLE BECAUSE IT WAS ALL ONE WAY,THE PLAYERS DIDN'T HAVE TO WORK THE OTHER WAY. Under Neeld,it's all to hard for the senior players and they don't have the heart for it,apparently some of the younger players have adapted well and i'll take a guess and say Jones & Magner,these guys are tough and love hard work but they can't carry Moloney and Sylvia,who must be dropped this week. We have weeded out Dunn,Bate,Bail,Joel Mac, and we only need to get rid of Moloney,Green ,Sylvia and Davey and play the kids who could be our future,the above 8 aren't our future and should never wear the Demon jumper again. Mark Neeld is tough and most of our players are weak,it's so simple!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rhino gave me a warning 2 years ago that i've just noticed this week,LOL.
