[Chook 15,022]

Joeboy - One positive comment.

[Gorgoroth 13,023]

Agree with all but thought Chip did a good job on Stevie J.

[Jaded No More 68,974]

Chip was very very good on Johnson.

After he kicked 2 early in the game, Chip absolutely dominated him and gave us plenty of drive off the half back line.

Bartram did a great job on Burns too. He has really resurrected his career.

The rest of the backline had a bad day, although I think Grimes did a reasonable job down back, but wasn't able to give us any forward drive whatsoever.

Watts - Get in front!

Grimes - so he has a quiet day and needs to be rested - thats ridiculous. he is not 12 years old, allowed to have an off day.

Watts - Crucified by shocking coaching.

Bailey - No plan B.. shocking day in the box.

Agree and agree Chip and Bartram. Also thought, although not great, Wonna showed enough to keep him in.

[Redleg 41,484]

Watts - Crucified by shocking coaching.

Bailey - No plan B.. shocking day in the box.

So you think Bailey told him to play from behind on every single occasion.

[Redleg 41,484]

Also thought, although not great, Wonna showed enough to keep him in.

I didn't. Thought he was very poor. With Scully, Trengove and Mckenzie to come back in, someone has to make way.

[PeterJames 46]

Not sure what wona showed. He was slow to read the game, waited for the Geelong player to get the ball then try to tackle. Agree with you Redleg!

Why would Grimes need a rest? He was ok today.

Moloney tries his guts out. Jamar was good. James Mc struggled, but i think he should be used off the bench. Hard to do it when he has been playing so well.

.... here we go.

Would you make a better Coach, 'Demon 3'?

[PeterJames 46]

Again Mckenzie was dropped. He is not an automatic inclusion. He has to play well for Casey tomorrow!

[Deeoldfart 8,066]

........................

Frawley - lowered his colours

........................

No he didn't! He was one of our few winners today

[Demon3 2,541]

No, but i am sure a kid playing his 6th game might have liked to battled it out against one man and not 2!

[Demon3 2,541]

Im sorry, i thought this was the place to share your thoughts about what happened today.

So no need to be a smart Ar$e about it, i just think he was comprehensively out coached and it was fairly obvious to most...

[joeboy 3,166]

On reflection , and after watching the replay ,I concede that I was probably too harsh on Frawley .

Dont give me "here we go".. im not calling for him to be sacked..

Dont be so precious. The coach..any coach should not escape scrutiny on a bad day, just like players.

Allowing a loose man in a Geelong defence is just a horrible mistake. they have a great defence as it is, why give them an extra leg up by allowing a roaming player to pick off any attack coming inside 50.

[Dee Fan 3,247]

Both teams that played in Darwin last week had shockers today, let's not underestimate the toll the conditions took.

I will totally disregard that game today.

Frawley was our most influential defender.

McDonald & Moloney - Rarely near the ball and need a rest? Two of the BOG for us, 22 & 25 possessions respectively!

[Hellaintabadplacetobe 4,294]

Bit harsh on Jones IMO. Thought he did a reasonable job on a mission impossible.

Incorrect re Grimes n Moloney also, although both have had better games!

I don't agree with your comments entirely, but I do agree with your point about sharing your thoughts. Keep it going....

[bing181 9,329]

Dont be so precious.

er ....?? Who's being precious? Thought this was "the place to share your thoughts".

Were you expecting everyone to agree with you?

Meanwhile, back on thread, my one-word player analysis for the whole 22: Tired.

i dont care who or who does not agree with me mate, certainly not you who clearly misread my post.

Moving on though.

[45HG 1,559]

Watts - play in front!

That's about all.

I can't deal with the "Macdonald was solid" "Grimes was slow" bollocks.
