Said it before and I'll say it again, MM coaching is crape!
Too much Jekyll and Hyde performance.
We can't always blame the coach. The mugs out on the park determine the result. It' simple, we have too many who do too few, when the pressure is applied.
In comparison to the arch enemy, we need a handful of tattooed Bogans donning the Navy Blue and not the Metro Nancy boys we currently have on the list.
Great come from behind win .. Awesome to see the boys dig deep and knock off the Toast, off your seat kind of stuff.
Murphy great, finally leading as a leader should. In man love with Dylan, he never takes a backward step. Takes on the big boys and has great judgement, skill and ability. Rowe, Jamo and White kept the Toast big boys quiet. Nic Nat is a spud, gets lost in all the western seaboard media hype. Warnock gave all night against a three man tag team. Waite, Simmo, McLean, Jeffy, Gibbs, Daisy getting going, Everitt, Menz inspiring sub, Lucas, AW impressed at times he went with Spack Darling, he certainly had the better of him. Bad luck for Yazz. It was a great team win.
Negatives - I was very upset with some of our decision making throughout. We are terrible at times and most stuff ups = turnover = goal. Why do the Umpires always turn it on after a week of negative press.
Get to rub that win in over here ... You little ripper
Murphy starting to lead by example, needs to back it up every other week.. Rowe did very well down back. Buckley, this kid is a GUN .. Warnock took on all three and gave all. Simmo lead from the front. Gibbs McLean not bad for a slow old fart..
Gee we're a funny lot Fighting when we lose, fighting when we win.
I really do wonder about our supporter base. We have 800 to 900K of supporters across the country, yet we are never happy with what we have and we struggle to get 40K paid up members. In regards to these numbers we are so far behind the other big clubs it's farcical. Are we just fickle front runners ourselves ?
Do we as a WHOLE club really just need to realise we are what we are at this point in time, lighten the feck up and get behind the club.
The boys put in a great effort yesterday and got the points against Footscray.
Good to see the pressure on the club has finally seen a change of heart.
MM changed it up to suit the cattle we have, midfield still needs a lot of work. The mob we have can't play the boundary hugging defensive style that MM loves so much, we just need to play to our strengths and give it a crack (Ratt's daft picks only know one way).
One win, it's a step in the right direction.
Now it is onto next week, we need to back it up as that will determine how dinkum we are...
