Menadue guys what you think ?.

Been alright but not much of an opposition to judge properly. Still concerned about him against top sides when you need to win the hard ball.

Menadue guys what you think ?.

Super disappointing to be honest. He had a chance to showcase his run and carry but I haven’t seen it at all. I’d be suprised if he’s got 100 metres gained.
I actually lost count at how many times he was second to the footy. Isn’t he supposed to be quick?
Is a coaching directive to allow his opponent get possession so he can tackle?

I don’t know but it was an underwhelming performance and I expected so much more.

Maybe these fringe dwellers need 4 seasons in the reserves to find their mojo.

He is still only reasonably young but he is way way off.
Painful to watch to be honest.

Moore not far behind....

Was ok...hard at the contest and clean. The big concern is George and his disgraceful disposal.

IMHO

Another "B-twix and between" player

Too good for VFL but for whatever reason can't setp up to the next level

Was vey disappointed in his game last night

[Lebowski]

Looks further away from it now than he did last year. Have concerns and am starting to think he won’t make it.

Menadue is not used in the senior team like he is at VFL level. He positions himself in the right spots and runs hard but players don't use him so we don't she his line breaking ability. Players look to give it to Short and rightly so. At VFL level Menadue is Short. He can play and should grow in confidence once his teammates allow it as his kicking is second to Short.

So he is superfluous you are saying

I he had kicked a goal or two you would say lets perseverance with him. But the fact we were playing an ordinary team on the fast deck of Etihad he had to of done more.

He has done FA this year when given a chance. And he has had a few.
I don’t think that is debatable.
He doesn’t need to kick 3 goals or have 30 touches, he just needs to be clean when he gets his chance and he hasn’t. And age has nothing to do with that.
Another preseason and you never know but imo he is just a vanilla footballer at AFL level that can run fast.
