I thought Trac was pretty good

It's not the 2 point loss 'Iva', it flattered us.

We were dreadful today and when they got a run on we had no structure at all. Just 18 headless chooks on the ground at a time.

Yep. 2 point loss and we were headless. Makes a lot of sense that.  We headed them by 21 at half time and if we had the class of Lewis and Hogan we win.

Didnt watch the second and last quarters? Pretty good efforts for headless chooks.

Need to read the post boys....

When they got a run on in the 3rd, if you were watching you would have noticed our structures totally feel apart. There was no on ground leadership to stop the rot hence the headless chooks remark. We were out of position and out played...

This is where we really missed Lewis.

Even when we were in the lead we were just going...I think the thing that really p....me off was that I thought we had the game well under control at half time even though playing poorly. Unfortunately for us we again (think Geelong and 2 quick goals before 3Q time) let them get one back just on half time and then they ran over us in the 3rd.

We nearly made it back but really didn't deserve it.

If we're to be a legitimate finals contender then we can't play footy like this...

Jones - was well held

Viney - continued poor season

Salem - far from convincing

Watts - some isolated class

Petracca - just some cameos

Tyson - prolific but wasteful

Oliver - many irrelevant handballs

Stretch - quieter than usual

Kent - was hardly noticed

Frost - some good interceptions 

Melksham - nothing to impress

Hannan - not senior standard

Vince - game has passed

McDonald - was generally steady

Weideman - nothing to impress

Hunt - too predictable today

Neal-Bullen - improving each week

Bugg - had no impact

Spencer - almost broke even

Garlett - took his chances

Jetta - always slows momentum

Harmes - tried but rough

We only got done by 2 points !!! Based on these ratings we got done by 186.

Bit harsh on TMac, Watts,Hunt,Garlett,Oliver and Salem

Hunt is probably our best player. Our real problem is Viney - he is looking like a one trick pony. 

I reckon Jack V is a "see ball get ball"player (and tries extremely hard. His problem is when he has to think his way through options. He then becomes hesitant. Just needs some more confidence.

He's not big enough for the bash and crash stuff that's part of his game...his mate Olli (Wines) can get away with it and the likes of Joey Kennedy but Jack needs to adjust and get smarter.

Fairly good assessment, but can't agree with Kent, McDonald or Spencer.

Kent played a hand in many of our scoring chains and put his body on the line time and time again. Thought he was very good.

I'm not normally a McDonald basher but today's game was horrendous. He made so many stupid errors that I walked out of the G wondering if he has two brain cells to rub together. Couldn't believe some of the stuff he did.

Spence got slaughtered in the hit outs but was good around the ground. 

Disagree with most of it, [censored] 3rd quarter and 3-4 missed shots cost game
