Cheap Seats

Agree 100% I am willing to be patient - but if we lose at Port at the G - I will be very disappointed

Cheers RR Interesting points - on Howe could there be some upside that the kid can only get better as the season goes on?? 3 x 30C plus games in a row for the Dees - not very favourable conditions, did the Dees fade or were the Suns too good. PS: Not that it matters - but I reckon the Suns won't be a pushover up there this year - but I do think we should smash them at the G

This is why our club will never be successful......... 1/ Without commenting on specifics for the game plan - go outside the club ask anyone within footy - Defence wins premierships 2/ If that has any resemblence of truth - we cleraly didn't turn over enough players 3/ I know we've been crap for ages and I would love to win some games - but this site has very un-realistic expectations. And I agree with CFH. If Neeld gets sacked this year I will never support this club ever again

Thanks for the report!! Good to hear Sylvia showing something... 3 x 30C plus games in a row, bet the boys are looking forward to May

Not too many teams aim to play their best footy in March. A lot of lack of acknowledgment for GC more likely committed to winning in front of their own to boost memberships. If this footy is being played by us in rd 5 I'll jump in board the 'cut throat' bandwagon... But anyone commenting on commitment from players and game style from Practice matches is a moron

Are you sure you're not Ricky Nixon toot toot Chin up mate - talking logic with you would be a waste of time considering you're commnts on a game you haven't seen.

Sounds like some posters here need a cold shower! Loving the opinions formed from twitter updates... Keep the end of the world comments coming though - do enjoy a chuckle

Hard to pick up sarcasm over the Internet haha Your predictions could be coming true though Ralph haha

A little too early for that call Ralph - but it sounds does sound like the Suns are playing better

Hahah that made laugh - I just might do that....

I am hoping this is the MFC's version of Pearl Harbour - when the US was forced in to actoin and became a world power.... One can dream haha

Thanks WJ

Like Pringle - my sentiments as well. I am just hoping for no injuries.. I simply asked as there has been a lot of discussion about results around here. I counted at least 6 of our best 22 injured (not sure who is rested atm) and I think we will struggle to beat The Franchise GC 17 up there. Am very interested in this game - I do hope the boys prove me wrong

What are expectations for this game?? I'd like to know from those focused on results what would be an acceptable scoreline.......

Ahh yes '186' a day that will live in MFC infamy Let's hope these wrong can righted - Moloney etc all leaving can only be a positive step for our club. Ppl will rightly say people involved are still at the club, but lets take one step at a time before righting all these wrongs.

Agreed Stuie - Neeld is all about defence first Moloney can't play defence to save his life - it's no suprise he is now in Brisbane. Moloney is a decent offesive player - his brownlow votes support that fact. He fell out with Neeld and moved on - I have no ill will towards Beamer, sometimes a move is good for everyone

I like Moloney's inability to put on defensive pressure and refusal to run hard going the other way......... ahh the memories His clearance work has been good though, has some good mids around him now to make up for his lack of defence

Not sure if you saw last weeks game v the Saints OD but half our list did exactly that Time will tell OD, but i don't think we are playing a super strong side v the Saints. I feel a few blokes are fighting for positions. I just hope we can keep and get players fit

I knew that name would raise eyebrows I think his run & spread is really important - i feel he could develop in to a handy player (maybe not best 22 at the moment)

Likw what you said - but footy isn't rocket science I don't expect J Watts to be a match winner every game - I would like to see some consistancy from him, i think if he can develop that this year he's got a shot at being a pretty handy player. If not......... you''d have to agree it's been a fairly poor no.1.

Follow up o fthis questoin - anyone know of coverage or if there will be a replay posted??

Am happy to see Jetta back in the side Still a few bestt 22 out IMO Clark Trenners Dawes T Mac Blease Bail Looking foward to this game a little - I reckon Kent is a chance rd 1 as well. Realistically I hope for no injuries and the injured boys can get back asap

Like the post Deeko - good discussion points My counter-argument and what I beleive, is that with less interchanges contested 1 v 1 footy will be still very important as less players will be getting to contests. You will still need blokes that can win the footy not just a pure athlete. But in saying that recruiting stratagies will change...

Sorry to Hijack this thread........ but watching the Hawks v Tigers game and the inerpritation of the umpires in that game compared to Dees v Saints really frustrates me. Knee contact, holding the ball rules all not called in the last qtr of the Tigers game...... anyway umpiring it's as a big of joke as Aussie cricket IMO Anyway if we lose to GC on the weekend are we gong to sack Neeld??? haha

Spot on DeeZee I reckon we aer in for another tough year (on the field and on this forum).... fingers crossed - these boys have good years and Dawes, Rodan and Byrnes can add something and we may win a couple games this year!!! I do beleive we are on the right track with Neeld - I just don't think we'll get the overnight success we all want
