Media scrutiny
As he is in ours.

Media scrutiny
Cause it's nothing new. Melbourne the basketcase has self destructed and find themselves at the bottom of the ladder again. Situation normal. And no-one but their small band of tortured supporters GAF.

If we are in this position next year the blame falls with Roos and Jackson!
Lets face it. Roos and PJ were only mercenaries whos hearts weren't really in it.

Darren Burgess officially our new fitness coach.
Well the proof will be in the pudding. I remember we were all excited when Misson came over after a couple of injury free years with the Swans and Aints. Declared our players fitness levels were no-where near AFL level and told us he would need to work them over a several years block to get the fitness base required. 8yrs later ..........

Roos + Lyon - On The Couch
That plenty of players out there don't have 1% of the passion that he has. I'd love to hear what blokes like Neitz, Bruce, Green, Farmer, Robbo, Grinter , etc, etc ........ Think. My old man works with Biffo for eg. Still loves the Dees. But not in the media, so don't hear from them.

Roos + Lyon - On The Couch
Not sure that's quite true Lord Nev. Lyon just has a higher profile in the media than most which allows his opinions to be aired.

Roos + Lyon - On The Couch
It's not that this year or last year was an aberration. The problem is that it's Standard Operating Procedure for the MFC. Incremental improvements followed by mind bending drop offs. Wins against solid opposition to fold against the weaker. 2 finals wins and then hardly scoring in a prelim. Finishing 4th and dropping to 16th. That's what drives most supporters including Lyon crazy. He's just got a bigger forum than this to share his disgust. And I value his opinion on football above all the happy clappers around here.

Roos + Lyon - On The Couch
Unlike most commentators, Lyon actually watches Melbourne games and sees what we see. Garbage.

From Prelim To Wooden Spoon?
Last season wasn't that good mate. They still butchered it flat out with stats saying we had a very poor conversion rate for inside 50s. They got abit of belief at the right time of the year. That's all. West Coast exposed them in the Prelim like good sides do.

From Prelim To Wooden Spoon?
Abit rough singling out Petracca and the Weed. We've got a side of habitual butchers with the mids the worst of them. And they won't learn to hit targets or make good decisions during the off season.

From Prelim To Wooden Spoon?
Our game plan, disposal and decision making is a disgrace. Won't be fixed up with a fit list.

The AFL wants to reduce tackling
Oliver thinks so.
-
The AFL wants to reduce tackling
No doubt as with the bump Gill the Dill sees tackling as an OH&S issue to be eradicated from the game.

We have the worst I50 to goal ratio ever recorded...
Kent touched upon the answer up the top there. It's not a concern about being greedy or hungry. They're terrified to take the shot and miss. Better to hand over the responsibility to the next bloke than expose their own poor disposal ..... Again.

POSTGAME: Rd17 vs Bulldogs
We were never free flowing. Every goal is from a rugby scrum. Even last year. They were lucky they got abit of confidence at the pointy end but still made hard work of both winning finals. Reverted to form over in Perth.
