I'd suggest their game plan is actually the problem and it has been exposed . The defence is supreme which keeps them in the games. There was meant to be a tweak in the early season but it went back to the habitual bash and hoof it long and high pretty quick . Why didn't the FD put their foot down? I haven't questioned the players effort,courage or commitment.

Maynard will play just the way he plays..its a pity he and Gus arnt both Demons,or that Viney isn't 192 cms( that would be better)

Your " facts" are full of clairvoyant nonsense. They list becsuse of multiple fact...ors; the primary one was that they weren't good enough . I agree the Pies arnt good enough either...they beat a bashed up MFC by only 7 points!! What they did do last season was show how to attack the goal with speed ,skill and a running pattern that could provide a random player appearing free on the fat side to attack goal. And they hold there structure and plan regardless which is why they win the ones. I think Brisbane has developed a more complete team and will beat GWS at the G in a couple of weeks. Mostlt injury free pretty much like MFC in 21 If your good enough you win Melbourne as of now

"If it's to be its up to me"

And tossed out Hunt to make MFC the slowest team in the AFL

Yeah I actually meant to write "learning"

The real question put earlier shouldn't have been "genius or insane "; rather it might have been " stubborn or unaware"

It's a tried and true technique but Goody seems to have tweaked the way it works to disguise it

It took Scott a long time to change the Geelong game and they had footy IQ superstars in their team. Can we wait 10 years for the penny to drop?

Putting some pressure on the automatic selection of Kossi might help him develop... It's been a while and the only thing that's changed is he's put on weight so he can bump.

Tanking for an earlier draft pick

Yeah there's that as well and certainly NSW and Qld TV numbers will be at least 75% of the Matildas numbers(with about a similar 45% who have any idea at all what's happening) I guess I really meant the Hun and it's leading [censored] Robbo

TMac couldn't actually get off the ground, that was the problem;he was playing in rehab . At least they let Grundy do his rehab in the VFL.."Horse "says thanks very much Simon !

All I want to hear soon is that( given they cant get rid of him now) they are going through the line coaches like a hurricane, reviewing Goodwins year,getting someone to assist/ monitor him. Then...paying out injured forwards and using draft picks for a strong marking target up forward and speed and skill add ons to the list It's not difficult I don't even care if Goodwin pays someone to do his pressers so he can concentrate on his learnings

A Brisbane / GWS..Grand Final would be everything the AFL DONT want and a celebration for most of the majority of the AFL's supporter base Hilarious

" getting " left behind?..anyone who stopped being silly and watched the Pies LAST season saw MFC was already left behind. There was a learning there unless you had remedial reading skills

Clarrie epitomises everything that is both good and bad about the "Melbourne way"

Or Clarrie

There's no doubt they give it a red hot go..but sans poise,skill and elite decisions. That's more than needing one key forward.

Ironically because three of them should retire even if they have to be paid out. And we don't actually know how good JVR might become,nor Petty on a sample of 3 or 4 games forward.

Smith is the " old" Melksham in disguise Group think rules the roost.
