He went back in the rooms after speaking to Mission. I assume he went to get re-strapped or injected.

Can you inject someone for competitiveness can u?

One thing I will say is this....

There is hope there, believe it or not. Dawesy has put his hand up. Trenners seems to ever so slowly be getting his mojo back. Terlich, Evans and Kent look like keepers (not superstars but blokes who will hang around). Nate Jones ought to be commended. Col Garland and Chip Frawley may make a brilliant backline if Chip hangs about.
But, while the boys might think they are giving their best and are sticking together, they are clearly down on confidence. We need a circuit breaker. Whether we like it or not, the wounds of the battles of 2011 never truly healed. Neeld is the legacy of that year and to make a clean break from that era, he needs to go.

Missing targets costs us so much. It runs or attacking thrusts and puts us out of position when we turn it over.

Just pouring my first Scotch now. Probably should have started yesterday.

" I must have Booze.."

Chris Dawes is the least of our worries. He will play finals football for us.

Agree 100% CBF. There is enough out there

Watching these posts from Venice and seeing people slam Bail, Mckenzie and some others that Neild inherited, nobody is praising him for having a say in the selection of Matt Joes, Kent, Terlich, Dawes, Viney and Hogan. People would prefer to focus on Rodan rather than give Neeld any credit at all.

Credit to dawes if watts kicks this. Great shepherd.

Gee we panic as soon as we win possession. I'd rip the under 11 boys for that.

Great kick by Kent to Watts. He'll be a ripper.

Watts MUST MUST MUST stay forward

Watts goal!!

I'M GLAD SOMEONE IS HAPPY!

I will also say as well frankie, there is a s***load of dead wood in there too. Bail, McKenzie, Rodan, Pederson, will need to be moved on. We can't have blokes we are carrying.

Thats a fair call, i think it just has to do with his dismal strike rate, if he was a jockey he would be riding at the picnics.

Kent is having a real crack like the way is he going and will only improve with a new coach (hopefully)

Couldn't possibly get a 3rd dud as a development coach could we?

LET'S MAKE JONES OUR SOLE CAPTAIN

Davey goal!!

Davey goals.

Kent goal!!

Quick- sign up Neeld for 8 more years, we are looking like winning a quarter!

Pedersen stuffed up a couple but he has been alright. Kent has just that nice bit of Kent in him doesn't he!! He will be a player. Strauss has had some good moments. I think next year we will thank neeld for jones terlich etc when we are a more competitive. There are enough signs there. One thing noticed more today, a lot more passion when a bloke kicks a goal too.

I'm thankfully not there today, bc on family holiday in Malaysia... But listening and looking at stats, it is interesting to see that we are winning clearances, tackles, closer possession count than usual, and yet being smashed.

I think it demonstrates that we are a team that is on the whole trying to do the right things, but a lot of dead wood and so little class. I feel for the young players and for Neeld.

Rodan missed!!

I'm loving Dean Kent sick right now.
