Funny old game. Jetta goes inside 50, not long after Fritsch marks in front of May, with Petty not far away.

Can't tell off the screen, is anyone playing in defense?

Give us the 5 easy ones we missed and we'd be a half decent team

Skills matter, who'd have thought?

Great fight back.

Viney playing a great game.

Fritta doing a top job up forward.

Jetta getting amongst it as is Harmes.

Brilliant move Lewis up forward  (who ever would have thought).

Have been quite happy with Corey Wagner's game so far as will.

Full credit to Goody and the coaching staff.  The move of both Lewis and Fritsch (from the first bounce) up forward has been a masterstroke and has contributed 5 of our 7 goals.

Can't fault the endeavour, the effort and the willingness to fight for the shirt.  The skills, especially under pressure, haven't always stood up but on the other hand we've played some ripping footy.

Fingers crossed we can keep it up and cause an upset!

Can’t please some of the fools,on here. Real bandwagoners.

We’ve come from te clouds

We are beating them in all stats except centre clearances and frees ...just behind in contested.  Oh and obviously getting beaten on conversion...again.

I'm annoyed at you Goodwin.

Fritsch was always a forward. Always.

True potential wasted in the back line

When May, Lever, Jetta and Lewis were all out, we almost didn't have an option but to put him back.  Now that they're all back we have the freedom to stick him there.

Relax guys, we’ve got this 

our new star forward line fritter and lewis,good grief

Jesus Lewis can’t even kick them. What a total waste of opportunities. 

He’s slightly off balance his wig is so large on the back of his head

I agree - I've always felt he was a forward, but necessity predicated that we needed him elsewhere.  

Hopefully he now stays there.

Umpires gave us a fair go that quarter and we kicked straightish to get back into it.

also I love how both Ryan and Rioli have flown on top of packs taking out defenders with no realistic attempt at the ball, allowing Their big forwards to Mark unopposed. OK by the umps it seems. 

FMD!!! 

We are a bizarre football team !!!!!

Random question.  Why in our home game did a west coast fan toss the coin? 

I must say lewis is holding McGovern to account

 Because we are being paid a million bucks

I'm aware about the lack of personnel that prompted the move in the defense. But I'd argue that someone else should have been put back, given that our forward line was such a mess. Fritsch's foot skills didn't shine all that often back there, after all.

Fritsch in the forward line is full credit?

I'm not a wrist slasher, but lol.

Did I say we should sack him?

Perhaps one of our coaches should tell the players where the wind is going and how to kick for goal? Or perhaps we should practice our skills? Or maybe ANB shouldn’t be getting games when he’s so bad?

I mentioned the umpiring is a disgrace but so is our skills and defensive efforts and that is 100% on the coaches  

 

Jaded we usually agree on our team, but we are letting our players off by blaming the Coach for everything.

We have outplayed the Eagles who need to win for top four, with no forward line and horrendous umpiring. If we had kicked what we should we would be 5-6 goals up. Does the Coach get credit for that?

I blame the players for missing gimme goals today, like they have all year.

Goodwin has made mistakes but teams can’t win when they butcher the ball and we are according to stats the worst at it in history.

My god I am a fan of Petty but seriously 2 misses from 15 out straight in front. Lewis just missed from 5 metres out for his 3rd miss and was lucky to get another kick. 

The most important thing we need above all else is the ability to kick straight both at goal and passing.

I have to go now and buy another TV, because I have kicked this one to pieces.

PS. Senior players can work out the breeze after one shot. They are dumb.

Who would you have put there?  With those guys out we were already forced to play Oscar, J Wagner etc down there.  We needed a little but of class and footy IQ.  Granted, he never always hit the target, but he did it more often than others.

If Lewis keeps playing like that as a defensive forward for the rest of the year and hits the scoreboard regularly does he stay another year?

Demonland should be appointed to the coaching panel- we have been advocating Fritsch to the forward line all  season.

Who is this person someone else?

TROLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Clarry Choo Choo gets held of the ball all the time but still has 20 odd possesions. I hope to God he never gets injured Woe if he ever does!! Why does Viney persist with trying to break every Friggen Tackle!???
