Simply horrible today. Too many players who are too scared to comit to the ball or just can't be bothered. P Johnson and Jamar look too slow at this level of football.

Not sure what the **** I saw today but it is obviously a team that needs rebuilding fast. It is worse than 1997.

Lazy, weak, second efforts non existant, can't stick atackle, can't man up, can't dispose off the ball without making a simple error, Holland is a good mark up forward but couldn't kick a ball to save his life, danners can't coach to save his life.. Godfrey should have been delisted along with Johnson, Jamar and ward.

Time for Davey to take a spell. He is in bad form - he needs time to regroup.

Now I know how Carlton supporrters have felt for the past three years.

...Agreed. There are no words to describe the car-crash we are being subjected to week after week. Actually there are, but I would be red-carded if I wrote them.
I am all for loyalty and I love these boys and feel we have a wealth of talent but WTF IS GOING ON??! I realise our injury list is massive, but with all the experienced players we have, we should be able to at least cover our butts. I seriously thought before the fourth quarter started today that we might at least have a bit of a go and try and lessen the embarrassment. ..Or as my Filth supporting boyfriend, who has endured his share of embarrassment over the last couple of years put it - " these guys (Yze, Johnstone,Davey etc) should be playing not just for pride but for their spot next week". I am sure that Brock, Robbo and Neita were spewing in the stand this arvo. What a crapola dislay. Sandy have more guts.

If the scum is collingwood i know his pain through the ninties i went to watch Buckley cause i knew he would give a contest, couldnt trust rest of the team, nut i think it can turn around for you guys just need to Brad Green and Full Forward all match he can do damage up there
 
The thing that has really killed us this year is that we were the best tackilng side and went in for the hard ball time and time again. But our strategy over the summer has destroyed the way we play. Mids losing kilos to get more endurance, instead of the usual bulking up. Huge mistake. Obviously the decrease in weight has come with not having the balls to go in hard.
And I think weve forgotten about Travis Johnstone. Is this guy the weakest player in the league? Yes. So many times he let the opposition get around him without putting any pressure at all. Even that dope ruckman they have got around him without getting touched.
John Longmire is our man, and I pray the club makes the right decision by getting rid of Danners and pursuing the horse.
 
One thing is for sure... you won't win games playing that terrible flooding brand of football you played in the 2nd half.

At least it saved us from a hundred point loss. The way it was going before that might have been more beautiful but it was as brutal as **** on the scoreboard.
 
How crap was Carrol today. he cauldn't even hand ball over someones head with out turning it over and resulting in a goal. The idiot should have gone for a kick anyway. Carrol is a defender... not top line anyway. Neither is Holland...

You need more players like Nathan Jones. full of courage that one
he's a gem isn't he? If we could bottle him we'd be set.
However, he shouldn't have to cover for players who have many years experience on him. Shame on you - yes you, Johnstone, Yze, even Bruce. You should be setting an example, not expecting the younger guys to cover for you. What role models have they got? I hate to say it, (and sound like rJ) but without Brock we are stuffed. I think if he'd been there today things might've been different. He adds heart and passion. "veterans" of the club should not need to be taught that by 21 yr olds. Look at Glenn Archer, James Hird, Michael Voss - Look at your jumper.
Do you deserve to wear it?? Hang your head in shame senior Dees.

Such a pity he handballs into traffic and comes from the Moloney run straight at the tackler school of running.

No doubt he will be better - but there are things he needs to learn - this year, it will be pretty fast.
 
Granted a number of the key players for Melbourne were missing but what happened to the rest of the team? Bar a few players it looked like even those who took the ground didn't show up, as if they were resigned to a defeat? I thought Green was great, Moloney was good, Bates and Davey were making an effort and Bruce looked good but without working too hard. Is there something going on in Demon land? Not suggesting anything sinister but what is with their last couple of performances? The talent is there in the list so what is it?

Just happy to get a pay packet I think. The majority look so disinterested and I for one have had it. If only we could sack 20 players and get in 20 who WANT to play for the MFC.
What we need is a top FB, top CHB, top ruckman, and a top CHF, an explosive midfielder - Judd, and wed be set. Not too much to ask for. The rest Im generally happy with.
Lets see.
Carrol for Glass
Holland for anyone decent at CHB
Miller for J.Brown
T.Johnstone for Judd
Jamar/PJ for Cox
Daniher for Longmire
 
Very very ordinary football. It makes me wonder what is gonna happen when neitz actually retires? We had NO ONE to score goals today. We wouldnt have won with neitz and robbo in the team anyways. Not with the absolute heartless playing from the 90 % on the park.

I know we were at this stage last year, but this year i really think we are finished already.

No run, no pressure, no accountability, no spirit, no passion, no determination.

Disgraceful.

That's great so you would think that next week can't come quick enough for the players which = freo nil from 4.......:D :D
