Well preferably not both, but Weid yes. Exactly. But then respect doesn’t seem to be a modern anti-social media trait. -
Because they have had such a lot of time and played so much in blending into our backline??
-
If we happen to pull off a surprise win in a heavy downpour perhaps this will have contributed. ?
-
Liam Jurrah?
-
Fitness ..... physical and / or mental? And an apparent lack of interest and commitment, at times.
-
Similar things were said of the late Colin Sylvia. Trac has yet to prove himself to be a consistent contributor rather than a flash in the pan type player.
-
Is that you, Titus? IF he started now we may have an answer for preseason 2020.
-
Does that mean it was just puppy fat we saw?
-
By all accounts he didn’t show much interest in preparing for 2019. A massive let down.
-
Happy now, Pres?
-
Round 1 our players showed how seriously they took the team and the game - and all down hill since.
-
Why do the supposedly professional organisations known as MFC & AFL still list him in websites as number 0?
-
So he is a dud ( offensive term at the worst of times) but for a bottom aged first year player I just cannot respect anyone using such terminology PS I too hope you are very wrong
-
So Master* Elegt You have seen a lot of Jordan up close over a long period to come to this opinion I presume * presuming you are male but perhaps you are from Tasmania so haven’t yet had an opportunity to decide

Even before the Geelong final last year I held huge optimism for Sam becoming at least a very good MFC forward. His, together with the team as a whole, has been a depressingly awful year so far. Of more concern to me with this consistent underperforming is the loss of ability to attract, or even hold star players. Six months ago we were “a destination club”: no longer unless the team and the coaching and fitness staff rapidly pull their collective fingers out and start winning and playing attractive watchable footy.

A long term Melbourne trait. Easy to score against and can’t stop runs. Even last year when we were winning.
-
It is after all the players not the coaches who play the game, and only they can chase, shepherd, team up etc So, 11, it is either poor instruction or poor implementation
-
Even if they did “analyst it” they obviously have not learned much. Insanity is continuing to do what does not work.
-
I hope that our players were required to watch the Cats v Hawks game in its entirety, though I guess if our coaching staff are too arrogant or too far up themselves to have reviewed, and learned from, our PF loss then they were probably told to relax and eat a batch of Easter eggs, and turn up for their paychecks on Thursday regardless Delivery into 50 was for the most part precise and looked as if there was actually a plan, with a bail out plan as well ....... still I guess with our team having so many entries into 50 they may feel we don’t actually need a plan or any skills either. How absolutely gutting to watch these two teams, who we convincingly booted out of the finals only 8 or 9 games ago, thinking they were on the slide, fighting back whilst we just roll over and meekly capitulate in what has sadly become our style.
-
What, are we going to move both of them on to a professionally run club?
-
To me at the time this seemed to be so arrogant and a wasted opportunity to learn from our defeat by the ultimate premiers. We we’re hopelessly outplayed and out-coached: thorough analysis (without recriminations) could only have helped our development, yet the coaching staff appeared to share the delusion that this was an aberration. Since that day every time we have played it is clear that it was not. PS: are the cumulative season stats for this year and last for total inside 50s, percentage scores and percentage goals per inside 50 available somewhere? Our inability to convert what are usually dominant I 50 opportunities is appalling and reflects inept game plan and/or lazy forwards
-
Exactly Tim. He didn’t actually click with Jesse. Best games for Tom, and for MFC, were without Jesse
-
“We are easy to play against”! Shrewd and subtle observations like this must be why he is on such coin. Surely nobody else could see this ?
-
Redesign the game plan assumes the presence of one, for which there is little evidence so far this year ?
