Birch Goldrick Colvin McNamara Lampard We got smashed in the midfield, but the dimensions of the field didn't help as it suited their "focus on the player first" style of footy and their bigger bodies.

I watched the game with the audio being about 5 seconds behind vision, so the votes may be slightly askew: Hanks Birch Harris D Pearce Colvin

McNamara Mithen Hore Paxman Goldrick

There's still 21 plus players; we should recognise recognise their effort as much as the men (actually more so as they give up more for less); but if having 2 less players reduce votes: let's make it 5.

Tried to start a votes topic, but not sure if it worked. Can someone set it up please?

Anyone know where I can get the Melbourne theme song as a ringtone; safely?

What also needs to be remembered is only one forward out of six is the target of a forward entry, and key forwards get a higher percentage of these, otherwise defenders will be encouraged to zone off them. Then good teams also have goal kicking midfielders (great teams, rucks) - who bypass the forwards all together! So of course there are going to be games where he doesn't kick goals or looks quiet - that does not mean he is playing poorly or "hot and cold".

It's not all doom and gloom. We had more scoring shots (quite a few didnt even register), was severely disadvantaged by the umpiring (it's not just the free kicks, the inconsistency has players second guessing themselves), and was within 4 points near the end. Browns kicking will improve once he believes he has a place in the side . Jackson needs a rest but I would replace him with a midsize player, maybe Bowey (moving Salem to the wing or Hibberd/Rivers forward) or Melksham. I like Spargo, but only one of him of ANB should be in the forwards at the same time as they just don't kick/set up enough goals. Therefore they are not dangerous, allowing opposition defence to focus there energy elsewhere. Viney can play the pressure role and does kick goals. Our Mids get a lot of it around the ground, but not at the centre clearances which requires us to win the Defence to not only stop them from scoring but to initiate our attack. Attacking from deep in defence introduces more opportunity to turn the ball over and for the opposition to push back as we bring it out.

We got smashed in the midfield, yet most our votes have gone to midfielders!!! On reflection I should have given more votes to our backs. Also who was on Daniel's - he destroyed us.
