Some good points & only time will tell with Neeld,...... wasnt the leadership group picked by the players? These so called senior players have gone missing on many occasions & off field issues eg Moloney,Silvia Personally I would have rather seen Jones & Frawley captains they have experience & bust their chops each week!

We dont have hardness around our midfield, you look at scott thompson at the crows, we failed to keep him, its a reflection as a club? Maybe its changing now with better facilities & more support staff etc. I dont know why Magna was not in the midfield, very hard & sad that a rookie is one of our better players! Jones busts his arse. Were is Moloney & Silvia experienced players???

The time at Casey will be the best thing for him, make him address all the KPIs that are needed to make the grade of al Afl KPP I would leave him there for 3-4 weeks to make him burn to want to play at senior level or until he starts playing the way Neeld wants him to Kid was brought in too early! He needed to serve his apprenticeship & ensure he had ticks on all the KPIs. Michael Tuck played 50 games in the seconds which was a requirement with Hawthorn at the time,sounds old fashion but maybe players get it too easy with all the hype of the draft. Not having a crack at Watts just want him to succeed

Sylvia- air head, only plays 1 good game every 6, always goes missing, not a leader, Moloney- Not a leader & should have been captain, but issues of the field Both these guys have had issues of the field, how can you create the right culture when your experience players are not leaders?

Fantastic effort! played up the ground too, even roved to kick a goal! Poor support from other forwards! The guy must be frustrated, you are doing no# 11 proud!

Why people continue to defend our lazy & soft players is beyond me! For every good game they play they play 6 poor ones,. look at the ease of how the ball game out of our back line & geelong scored. We are sitting at 0-6 & look like being 0-11, have not played finals since 06 & the same players continue to play soft football.

Well done Mtch 4 goals , worked his butt off! Chasing, roving, defending, no one to help him! Frawley kept Hawkins to 1 goal Jones works his butt off dives in! should be captain! no disrespect to Trengove/Grimes but too young Silvia, needs to be dropped very soft Morton soft just watches the contest never dives in Our forwards except for Mitch just let the ball come out too easy!

Another team to play the Saints & not witness a rable!

Just stating that the club failed to draft KKP fwd & highlighting that the MFC have a poor record when you consider the extra draft picks they had over the last few years ( time will tell with current picks) I look at Hawtthorne- Franklin,Roughead St kilda- Reiwvoldt I

Bad behaviour by those supporters........ but frustration due to 48 yrs of no flags! No Heart! last 5 yrs of rebuilding & no improvement! Looking at possible 0-11 ( look at our draw) I know I will get shot down, but its only so much supporters can take!

Lets not forget that under Neale not one KKP player in particular a forward has come through. They thought that Neitz would last forever, amazingly he was drafted in 1993! The recruiters have done a shocking job of drafting a key tall forward in the 2000s, when all the other clubs have found them we continued to go after mid fielders Our best forwards we have drafted are Neitz- 90s, Swarta 90s, Jackovich 90s, Lyon 80s

Dont want to be negative but the truth is the way we are playing see below draw & which teams can we beat? Bulldogs- H Saints- H Cats- A Hawks- H Swans- A Blues- H Bombers- H Pies- H Bye- This will be a win!

We could be possibly 0-11 when you look at the next 8 games coming up!

We may be 0-9 looking at the games coming up Can Neeld continue with this game plan & continue to get smashed every week? Does he need to adjust it to match the skills of the players? Who will turn up as our supporter base is fickle. This will affect gate takings & finances of the club All I saw today was kicking to the boundary to 1vs 2 & the turnovers were shocking! Whats happened to our coast to coast play we were doing last year? Im not calling for Neelds head but 3 games in we r looking to get smashed every week!

Remember Bomber Thompson new First time coach 1999-2000, too him 8 yrs to win a flag Almost lost his Job in 2007, the rest is history Cleaned the list out Changed the culture...remember handbags etc Neeld is expected to change all this within 6 months! Give the guy a break!

Mate just having some fun!

Played in 4 of the 5 Grand Finals Won 3 flags Lost a champion in Ablett Champion Premiership players retired, Ling etc But yet their hunger continues to win games against a great team like the Hawks Sure they have great skills, but the words DESIRE, LEADERSHIP,WORK for EACH OTHER & CULTURE Lets not forget some 6-8 yrs ago most of their list were not going anywhere, handbags etc Lets get behind Neeld & his team to support him as this will take time as seen with the cats

Following the demons!

Get Geelong to play them!

Good to see all the frustrations & anger of all who follow the Dees! At the end of the day I will live in hope that the current coaching group will turn the list around and make changes to the list to turn it into a premiership team Lets not forget it took Geelong & Collingwood almost 10 yrs to achieve premiership success and thats after they got the off field issues right. Both Collingwood & Geelong were in huge debts in the late 90s!. I guess now I will buy my 15th membership!

As a Member since 1998 & a supporter from the 70s I have not seen such a poor team since the 70s & early 80s! We continue to make very poor recruitment & coaching appointments. Im not having a crack at Neeld but time will tell Why wouldnt you pick Natanaui over Watts, at a time in 08 when the club was broke we needed a player that would show a something freaky & flashiness but yet we continue to go down the road of boring! We have had a number of early draft picks, whats gone wrong. When was our last KPP fwd we drafted...... Neitz 1993 thats almost 20yrs ago Is this game plan too hard for our low skilled players to adopt? We are not Collingwood Were are our leaders on the ground? Should the game plan reflect on the ability of what the playing group can play too? Or do we go on not winning any games & hope eventually we get players to adapt. But at what cost, who will go to watch us? membership etc I dont want to sink the boots into Neeld but we will not win any were near to 7.5 games as we did in 2011. Can we members continue to watch this garbage?

96cents!

Lets look at what the new Board has/is doing Cleared 5 mill debt since 2008 Business turnover from 25mill-40mill State of the art Training facility Mcc alignment More football/sports science... David Mission one of the best,Neil Craig both sports science & football brain mentor Record membership 37K in 2011 Record new sponsor Energy Watch Our club has never achieved this, can I remind you of the junction oval??? a fractured/broke board Gutnick/Zombie etc Look at Collingwood & Geelong both broke late 90s got their ship in order attracted the best people to the their clubs it took them 10yrs to win a flag! I share your frustration I supported them since the 70s dark days & a member since 98! Remember all the ducks need to be lined up!

I agree Daniher did not make tough calls on players to improve our list but lets not forget his achievements 6 final series from 10yrs 1 GF & 2 prelims Club was broke & continued board issues, Gutnick etc, Poor training facilities, no oval to train on during preseason To achieve playing in finals with the issues the club faced was a good effort

Listen to the man he gave it all for the club! He was relentless for success & he demanded it from his players. He created a culture which was demanding! He said you play to make & win grand finals As usual the board shafted all because of self driven interest!
