our pressure on their forwards has been embarrasing

We just looked so flat.

Was it the short week

few changes justified

well done jesse

Should have been at the G

Peter Jackson and the club need to stand up and demand that we NEVER EVER play a home match at this $hithole again!

12 of last 14 frees to Saints

they deserved all of them.

I would like Etihad stadium destroyed.

I want the umpires tortured.

I want to slap a few of ours also.

Terrible day with the club showing its ineptitude in ticketing as well. 

Roos needs to explain why he wants Reiwoldt to get BOG every time!Why?

We know something will happen then it happens.

If what I'm reading is correct, and we were lazy, flat and disinterested, it's not an Etihad problem.

Those are the same traits that we showed against Essendon in Round 2, coming off a good win and hype.

The problem is the club, not the ground.

(NB: I still hate Etihad and don't want to play home games there, but still).

We should pick the same team next week. We were out on our feet by qtr time. I thought Watts, Hogan, Jones and Viney were great today but too many tired kids.

Looked fatigued from the opening bounce. Why is that?

yeah you need to read the whole thread. I said something like that already.

I might not watch the replay when I return.  On the bright side I have just enjoyed several Bia Ha Noi's in the old quarter.  Maybe next week? Monkey Island here I come. (Might see some relatives)- just thought I would get in first.

That was very disappointing. Saints were very very good. Just have to bounce back   

Those that won their position or broke even: Hogan, Jones and Viney.

That leaves 19 blokes beaten in their position.

Particularly useless were Dunn, Lumumba, TMac, Garlett, Kent and Harmes.

 

Col Garland has a big chance to take his spot back off Wagner, who looked slow and tired. Salem probably needs a spell. Cp5 was the wrong call, Oliver much more effective. We need more midfield grunt and that's Oliver.

Short turn around from last weeks game  Saints were smart enough to drop a few as they also had  a short turn around

We werent smart enough and paid the price

The boys looked tired, there was no intensity on the ball mover like we have seen over the past couple of games which is how we got our selves back into the North game.

I expected Petracca to be a more of a in and under player like Viney but he plays more like Pendelbrey.  You definitely see the basketballer in his game, Moves very well in traffic and in one play he tapped the ball out of a St.Kilda players hands instead of tackling which I thought was quite clever. He did a couple of special things which made me think his going to be a player in a few years.

Thank goodness the game is over.

Maple I am not surprised considering the company you were keeping, if my spies are correct!

Your spies were correct, Earl.

Pederson's lack of effort today has really stood out. He will be first to be dropped.

I think you'll find Frost has a hold on that spot. Worse than useless today.
