The only good thing that could come out of this, is a new coach
-
Is there a forward apart from Fritsch that's got more than 2 possessions?
-
Our kick out is easy to defend, as they know exactly where it's going and even if Gawn Mark's it, they've set up behind it.
-
We are not brave, leading to the pocket is the easy soft option, kicking it to the lead in the pocket is softer.
-
Oliver is actually a reasonable kick, he's just not a confident kick. Maybe if our midfielders worked harder off the ball to provide blocks, Sheppard, etc; similarly forwards have to lead to the right spots and at the right moment so that you can deliver that "good kick". There are so many variables. I'm sure for every bad an example a good one can be found. The bigger problem at the moment is that he rushes his disposals. Needs to wear a hit, but then there will be some that complains about him being caught. Note these are all similar things that have been directed at Jones for years.

Then we spread the news, send it to the various footy shows; they are always looking for content. Maybe Titus can make a joke of it raising its profile.
-
From memory he mostly hit to the right positions as it landed in our hands first, but they were already grabbing our player resulting in a spill which there (Lions) other midfielders then quickly swept away. They worked far far better as a collective. Our midfielders seemed to have been spoilt by having the ball given to them, rather than finding it in a chaos (unpredictable) situation.
-
The reality is our midfield was well beaten. Brisbane read the ball better of the ruck, out-pressured us, were cleaner than us, and moved faster than us. Our midfielders shouldn't be figuring heavily in the votes, but as individuals you can justify they had a good game (which if you think about, is probably part of the problem). I found it hard to leave them out as well. The Lions also played the umpires better than us, with 10 meter kicks and grabbing/tackling players before possession of the ball.

Tmac I'm, VDB rested. Tmac can play his role and also provides the flexibility of giving us a tall back or tall forward option.

It doesn't matter who we have forward until we correct the ball movement from the midfield. We are not brave enough to spot a target leading UP the ground but only with a 1 -2 meter gap on the Defender. We will instead hit up a leading target who has 10 meters on their opponent into a dead pocket. Note the opposition teams protect the dangerous area of the forward 50 and allow space in the areas offering low percentage shots on goal, with a little implied pressure even these opportunities convert to a a 50-50 contest for them. Then when the forward inevitably misses a couple (not all) of these difficult shots their confidence drops and any easier shots carries additional pressure.

That's a really good summary, and somehow gives hope.
-
I actually did in the my original draft. Should have mentioned other teams are now sitting of the contest with extra numbers to apply constant pressure, knowing we are going to contine handballing untill we lose it. This is easily countered by a simple kick over this mini flood to all the space behind, of course while our forwards contine playing behind waiting for a 50 meter kick of a step under pressure then this won't work either. It's junior football stuff but 1 handball and 1 kick would be a good start.
-
It's the gameplan: instant (kamikaze) handball; not to the best OPTION, not to the first OPTION, but to anything that resembles Blue n Red. We "get rid of the ball" other teams use the ball!!! We also don't lead, and more importantly honour a lead or even movement. Would love someone to count how many kicks went to a genuinely moving target. This demonstrate we don't have the courage to take the right option when it presents, preferring a safer option of someone 20 meters on their own. Forwards prefer leading back towards goals (an easier option than leading up), but then again we rarely spot up a leading forward so maybe they are justified. We are however very good a waving and pointing!!!

A music video doesn't make a movie. A footy clip doesn't make a game! You get about as much from both.

How can we watch the game

Did I read the Melbourne practice match was being televised, if so where?

As I understand it, it takes time for a (the) virus to infect a host sufficiently to show up in a test, therefore the quarantine. You don't cough on someone and they are instantly positive; it's got to infect the host, grow in the host and then spread to the throat, lung, nasal regions to be able to be captured on a swab.

To make this easy, ask your heathen (non mfc supporting) friends who they would give up a top 10 pick for and you'll find the answer is predominantly Gawn, with interest for Oliver and May. That's it, and note top 10 doesn't readily equate to elite. Ask who they would give up 2 first round picks for (with possible sweeteners) and the only answer is Gawn, and not always. That's where our list is at. These heathen fans look at our list for potential bargains like 2nd round for Trac; but not players.
