Maybe we underestimate the presence of senior heads in a team? No Boyd, Morris or Murphy in the current team.

Squiggle tips Saints at 51% chance -- What's your tip? -- Team line-ups »
Melbourne was competitive last year and is obviously competitive rounds one and two this year.You completely dominated the third quarter and I thought your kicking was very good, but you couldn’t kick straight and the damage was done after a poor first half. If it’s effort based it’s not hard to fix if the players want to be there and the coach is sending the right messages. They’re the two questions to answer.
You’re a bit like us, but obviously we don’t have the flag
Very odd if he has. Boyd does not seem to be considered at all, Roberts out, and who knows what the plan is with Schache.Melbourne was competitive last year and is obviously competitive rounds one and two this year.
So far we’ve been generally non-competitive but then again Bevo’s already picked three debutantes and played young sides each round. Maybe he’s given up on some senior players.
It’s all a bit bizarre.
It’s the lack of effort that’s disturbing. If our players were as desperate as they were in ‘16 we’d have done ok but at one point three West Coast players found themselves alone in the goal square. If the effort is that poor it doesn’t really matter who is out there.Fair enough - those guys are your 3rd tier guys though, aren’t going to be the guys that make the difference.
Picken is missed for sure, lack that grunt he brings to every contest.
Guys who I wonder about are Johanessen and Daulhaus - just haven’t taken that next step to be perreniel top players.
Forward line looks lost without Redpath - need him and Tom Boyd to form a double act.
Will be selected form warrants it I guess. It’s just another factor in this bizarre meltdown to the bottom four from the flag.Very odd if he has. Boyd does not seem to be considered at all, Roberts out, and who knows what the plan is with Schache.
Surely Boyd has to get a game?
Well you can’t have a list full of duds if you won a flag in 2016?
Well you’ve still got 3 of those. I reckon there’s stuff going on behind the scenes. I really don’t like Peter Gordon and I actually think he is influencing selection.We had our vetarens who we're super important. Also with Bont. Stringer. Jj. Dalh.libba. We built on a contested ball machine
Was that game plan unsustainable? Now you’ve been worked out there isn’t a plan B?It’s the lack of effort that’s disturbing.

BobWho’s his ideal replacement?
Roos?
Could be. Could be players are too self satisfied.Was that game plan unsustainable? Now you’ve been worked out there isn’t a plan B?
More likely St. KildaHe’d be perfect for Collingwood - would be a ‘big fish’, so ditching Bucks would be quickly forgotten.
Bulldogs are this year's sleeper team
As tempting as it is to say that's because I haven't been on Bigfooty for years, I know there are balanced, reasonable North supporters with better footy knowledge than me. We always used to be a bit over-represented on here so the mouth-breathers and whack jobs stood out like the proverbial.That’s actually the most insightful thing a North supporter has said on BigFooty.com for years.
eagles fans are realizing winning home games is harder now without the umps help
Show Bulldogs some respect. They managed to pull a powerful 22k to the game yesterday - 6-7k of which I estimate were WCE supporters.Hopefully we get more away games against the barely solvent Etihad tenants to compensate.
No free kicks no bulldogs.
On what are you basing this allegation?Well you’ve still got 3 of those. I reckon there’s stuff going on behind the scenes. I really don’t like Peter Gordon and I actually think he is influencing selection.
Please elaboratedoesnt help when your president is a problem and is destabilizing the club
