1487/16 - All rookies out of the way except Blicavs. Pendles (C), Swan, Gibbs, Franklin and Cox to come.
Tex was disappointing, obviously would have liked more out of Wines and Viney but cannot ask to much and will take a 50 odd from each.
Very happy with my rookies on the field selections so far as well, no lost points so far.

What is so bad about booing Watts he should be ashamed of himself, has been given the honour of playing for an AFL club then week after week gives half-hearted efforts, he got what he deserved. If you dont want to be booed take some pride in your football and give people a reason to respect you
Well it's not Singles Tennis. You need to be part of a Team.

I raise the question, is Watts to blame for the loss tonight? No, of course not! If Watts doesn't have his Teammates for support, how can he make a big impact?

Yes in part Watts is responsible. So is Neeld for the lack of a game plan. But a Number 1 draft pick should be much better.

Only Nathan Jones, Howe and Viney could say they put a shift in.

Neeld: "We can't pretend the last two hrs didn't exist"

One would hope not...

Essendon supporter obviously but was actually feeling a bit bad for Melbourne. If it was Collingwood or Carlton then I'd be pretty happy, but just felt bad for the Demons.

Average round again 19/1797 with Swan, Pendles, Gibbs, Cox

Happy with my team structure, unhappy with Goodes who will be gone after this week.

Of course Watts was not entirely to blame but he certaintly is partly to blame, i am just saying when week in, week out you give 0 effort and when you are not even trying for a team that some people love, they have a reason to disrespect you and boo

18/1656 with 4 Prems to come. One of them will be Captain, I just haven't decided which.

Let down by my Melb/Port Rookies, and had my 2 highest scoring Def Rookies on the bench. :(

To be honest, I don't think Melbourne are working towards one strategy. I think each person there has their own objective or goal. This is what is letting then down.

I'm hoping this is a wake up call (if it hasn't already been one) for them and they actually look at themselves as a Team.
