Game Day Round 5, 2015 - Gold Coast vs Brisbane Lions

Why is McStay on Matera???

 

[MacMum]

As much as I'm glad it was Leppa who got the job....... I wish we still had Vossy.....who knows where we would be now with a good board and footy dept. to support him.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Does anyone talk as much codshit about trivial records as Dwayne Russell?

Ouch, those crowd numbers. You watching Gill?

 

[James North]

If the team keeps playing like this, any support in Melbourne will evaporate. No one can face sitting thru' this plus getting grief from opposition fans.

Location irrelevant ... what is it with this argument?

 

[Harris Specter]

They have extra players when we go forward, but it's always a 1v1 or worse in our defence. Work rate, work rate work rate. So much talk in the media during the week and nothing to show for it. Expect the Facebook experts to have a go at it again. And rightly so.

Make it stop, for ****s sake make it stop!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MSB ROYS]

Hearing Dwayne Russell crap on just makes it worse.

 

[maroon and blue]

We are the new Melbourne. Players need to have a good hard look at themselves. There's no run, no toughness, skills are horrendous.

Melbourne on the ground definitely, but I wish we had their off field assets, MCG assisted by the MCC, wealthy supporters, much larger supporter base(watch their crowds take off if they start to win consistently). I would be happy with that.

At least you can talk AFL with the opposition fans that give you s**t. The ones giving us s**t want to talk about the Broncos.

Bewick is horrible

Spot on. Its embarrassing waking up on Mondays knowing what i have to face with all the Melbourne based club supporters around me And im extremely loyal, those who arent die-hard supporters wont follow games

 

[MSB ROYS]

Stone cold last and will be lucky to win more than 2 games this year.

I've been saying for a while we couldn't afford to bottom out even if it made us a better team in 5 years time but that's the path the club has decided to go down and it will make things even more difficult off the field.

Bewick is horrible

Top of the long list of senior footballers that have gone backwards with Leppa focussing on the youth.

What is the alternative? What were our non-bottoming out options? Besides Fev?

Don't forget a lot of us Melbourne based Lions members are ex Fitzroy so we are used to getting beaten week after week. It's just like old times. Can't speak for all of them but I'm sticking around. It will turn have faith. Trade Aish, Leuy, go hard for a key forward, sack the fitness staff, re-load and go again.
