monoccular

Can anyone answer this? Has any team ever wasted inside 50s as much as MFC? Tonight 53 point, 9 goal loss, with ten (10) more I 50s. How bad is our structure? Goody, please answer. How inept are our midfield and forward "specialist coaches"? I presume the full season or season to date progressive numbers are somewhere - are we THE worst converters ever?

Maybe we can hope, forlornly, that this year is the aberration and not 2018.

Do we have a strategy coach, a tackling coach, a kicking coach, an opposition watch coach?? Indeed do we actually have a coach at all??

Other than Preuss (and I can't really understand why he wasn't picked to back up Max) who do we have available other than that bench.

Yep but at least last year with Tom fit and in form, Melksham fit and in form, Weed developing and Jesse from time to time we had a semblance of a forward line and won a few games. Totally at sea all this year with all three remaining carrying injuries.

42 points down with 47 to 40 inside 50s We get it but we can’t use it Need some decent positive imaginative and passionate coaching

IF anyone is at the game, and still has any enthusiasm at all, who is playing back up ruck to Max? (Serious question so don’t say Spargo)

olisik being his usual positive and constructive self, DSP.

PP? Passionate preceptor? We certainly don’t have one at present.

... and whose loyal supporters share their emotions.

He should be too embarrassed to go there and show to both the viewers just what a deer in the headlights looks like..

1/ There will be no expectation. 2/ It couldn’t be as bad again, surely. 3/ No excuses accepted re delayed preseason. 4/ Confidence could not be any lower.

Does the presence of his best mate, Jarred Roughead, in the crowd tell us that maybe this is Lewis’ last game in Melbourne?

Deliberate!! FFS they are dead set incompetent (or cheating)

Bloody maggot called play on no mark, then paid the mark!,

Even Salem, our cleanest kick, is turning it over. ZERO confidence anywhere in the club.

The guy has had a crap season, like most of the team. Devoid of confidence, like so many. Do you really want to trade every player who has lost confidence in this horrible season?

Not returned the ball but no 50!

HTB decisions very one sided tonight.

A deeper analysis of which umpires were officiating would be "interesting" to say the least. Were the AFL genuinely fighting corruption of the results, or even a perception of the results, then they would never schedule those "mates of the Eagles" to Eagles home games .... never. However they continue to do so, and it seems always when we play there. The old saying that justice not only needs to be done, but needs to be seen to be done is clearly something that Gil and his henchmen ru(i)nning the AFL have heard of.

Two talls out, Preuss did well at Casey. Who will relieve Max in the ruck? Spargo?

How can anyone ever give >100%?

Any updates on this guy? Is he a genuine prospect?

Are you referring to the top eight draft picks? All that said, it is not evidence of tanking. Experimentation, on top of poor coaching doesn’t equate to tanking. beelzebub - are you a barrister? Pity you didn’t come out with that brilliant defence treatise when we were in the gun circa 2010.

No .... probably two?? Maybe he will be chomping at the bit to join us?
