Terrible. Worst ive seen us play in a long time, and its been a shocking year and thats saying alot.
From the outset we're not switched on. Neither was Neale Daniher. Completely outcoached. Didnt bother to man up Polak till the 2nd half when trying to play for any left over pride.
White and Paul Johnson were fantastic last night giving our midfielders first oppurtunity every time. Too bad our entire midfield was asleep all night.
Nathan Jones, alot of great things to say about him, but last night he was terrible. Sure he tries hard but it means nothing if you arent winning. He needs to learn to run intelligently to recieve as soon as he gets the ball hes caught and its a ball up.
Brock Mclean got some heavy duty attention for the prob the first time ever and couldnt handle it, its ok, he will be better for this. This was an example of being completely outcoached. Wallet got his tags right, took mclean and bruce out of the game. The only tag neale decided to even bother about was deledio and that was useless as deledio took godfrey to the forward line and he's not much of a defender.
Just seemed to me that melbourne last night were joggin all night. No chasing. No energy, no talking.
This is the kind of match that makes me want to throw it in and burn my scarf. We get the reverend coming out and saying get behind the club, we need you. Well theres alot of people getting paid alot of money at melbourne to show up and play little leauge brand footy. Seriously almost as bad as Fitzroy in their dying days, tho that had nothing to do with heart, they just weren't good enough. We ARE good enough, but honestly hitler had more heart than the dees showed last night.
Melbourne dont need a new coach, they need a psychiatrist to work out why they are hands down the most mentally weak team of the league.
