Half our team are suburban footballers.

Took him 2 games to accomplish numbers Magoo Mckay couldn't do in several seasons. If that's not an indictment on the true skill ceiling of this bloke I don't know what is, the only good thing he ever did was fool everyone into thinking he was worth over 1mil

I'd forgive all the happy-go-lucky stuff and about how the boys love just being around each other if just one of them actually came out on record and said "I'm not mates with anyone on the opposition teams because when the siren sounds they are my enemy and we hate them" -- but no, apparently...

While we may have already hit rock bottom, the worst part is that we seem hellbent on staying there.

A loss is a loss, and cumulative losses against the same outfit for the past 20 years with little to no improvement occurring in almost half of that time is far worse than the worst loss we have ever copped from them. Players come and go, and we have had coaches come and go. They’ll move on...

Does it mean that much when your entire midfield are kids, and then anyone above his age is just cooked? They’re not bad numbers, but how’s his influence on the game? He was an influential player in juniors, we haven’t seen that once yet and that’s all mindset.

I hate this team. All the potential on paper with zero of the delivery. I can’t stomach watching these plodders anymore. I will literally pay NMFC any amount of money they want to strip LMac and Simpkin of Captancies immediately.

This is probably the first season where I’m legitimately disappointed in him, he’s just not taking the next step when he really should be taking charge and figuring out how to solve the problems on his own.

It’s actually shocking how bad we are consistently, and we’ve never moved forward and we’ll continue to not move forward. It’s just pure lateral movement of bad footy week in, week out, season in, season out. Their midfield are a bunch of ******* kids, it’s inexcusable to be losing so badly to...

He's better than Coleman Jones, he's not a fantastic footballer, but I can gua-ran-damn-tee he is better than that spud.

If a Bulldogs exodus is on the cards we’d do well to poach them. Sanders & Lobb look gettable.

You can read body language all you like, the results aren't on the field either, and whaddya know another cut off in consistency so back to being cold before he gets up to perform only to go cold again afterwards. I'm not expecting a breakout season, because you shouldn't be breaking out at his...

I think its ******* gross this bloke gets another crack at any team and vice versa any team who approaches him is gross. Needs a long time away from the game in all its forms first, it wasn't even like a month and vultures circled on his name. Talent can go * itself when it comes to dealing...

Wake me up when Mitchell wins a premiership. His team hasn't been that impressive looking at the tenure in totality so far.

We had one already, he quit. Younger coaches haven't proven anything yet.

The coach isn't the player, you essentially agreed with me in your assessment that they're verbal instructions have to translate to actions on behalf of the player, that's why its called COACHING and not 'I have surrogated my brain and physical effort into the player to be my conduit' -- it's...

How can you see improvement when you tear down a house that was flipped 3 times before it went to market and intend to do so again before its even finished being built and then expect to win a net profit from that. The skeleton isn't even up yet, because the lead contractor (Clarkson) was away...

Yeah, fire another coach. That’ll solve things. What’s a ~6 year rebuild without another 10 years on top of that. I’m sure there’s no onset effects of us having another personnel, coach, staff and management changeover that subsequently turns our list over again under a new coaching game plan &...

I, for one. Celebrate this. Because footy is so goddamn boring now, where a flog running around getting pushed by players is better to watch than any given game of the week.

Why has it been like 6+ years and we're still waiting? He's never properly arrived on a consistent basis. X Factor means nothing when you can't even pull it off more than 3 times a year.

I don't think he'll ever be as great of a midfielder as we envision him being, and you can chalk that up to bad sides and balance in the mid or defensive accountability all you like, he's another battler in a team of battlers and that doesn't account for s**t winning premierships.

Great, another handover of crap players from other clubs we've inherited.

He’s 25 now. Kid gloves are off he needs to start living up to the reputation he had at state level ripping games open off his own boot. I don’t know what the * is going on between the ears but he needs a complete change in mindset.

Manic. Manic, manic, manic. He’s a throw back in a way where the entire league, especially the AFL needs to look at how he plays and why he plays that way. Because thats the true identity of Australian Rules Football on display in human form. What’s the one thing every coach worth their salt...

And? I’m supposed to care? I called it the day he walked in and continue to do so until the day he’ll be inevitably walked out, I’ve watched this blokes career before he set foot in the NMFC. He’s not good, he’s not going to magically become good and its clear as crystal in our list we have VFL...

He’s definitely under delivered, he was playing better footy 4-5 seasons ago than he actually is now for his age.

He may as well be non-existent because he’s a waste of space in this team and was the day he walked in. Who cares what state he’s in.

I don’t really know what to make of this bloke anymore, been a battler but its never reflected strongly on the stat sheet, and the last couple season he looks checked out despite being at his fittest. He’s gonna walk I reckon, he’ll walk when we need him the most.

If you’re not coaching for wins what are you coaching for? It’s been like 6 ******* years, when are we gonna stop waiting and start contending or are we just putting blokes on a field every weekend for a trial run to get experience in the boots as an experiment in seeing how long a footy team...
