We are defending poorly all over the ground. Brisbane, as I said, are a much better side than the Dogs. Strong across every line. Our forwardline is average at best and our midfield while good on paper, can get blown apart in clearances. We need to fix these issues before finals, or it won’t be a long campaign. Yep they are likely Grand Finalists no doubt
Stevienic23 1,185 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 We have no midfield depth so when clarry and trac are being held there's no one else to pick up the load. Harmes is our 3rd best mid and he was playing vfl 2 weeks ago. Not a dig at sparrow or Jordon as they're young but we need to sort this out

Mids need to run harder, defence gotta communicate better. We need to lock that ball in our f50 and stop them waltzing the ball in their f50. Got to stop being bullied. We look soft. Yea as excited as I have been this season...its shades of dees past Bruise free footy im sad to say. Why cant weid or Tmac qt least crash a pack? Cos as skilled as we are at times we lack the necessary physicality. Lions dont. 1
Kiss of Death 769 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Mclachlan interviewing kids is more cringeworthy than Roaming BT 1 1 1
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 I swear if Melksham doesn’t start getting involved I will lose my mind. He is so soft, so loose, so uninvolved. I’m so over him. 3
dino rover 714 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Our defence gets interceptions because of fwd mid pressure which isn’t there tonight fix that 3

Making it to easy for them and they're killing us when the ball hits the ground
DeeZee 7,495 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Without Viney we really lack that brutality in the middle. We need to change things up completely and I’d even try Jackson as a ruck rover to Gawn taking the ball high. 2
Superunknown 4,246 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Friends, Crunts and Romanryman - let’s all take it easy on each other eh? it’s just footy - let’s remember DeanOx lost his mum today this a very good footy lesson in a long long season 1 1
ANG13 2,107 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Brisbane totally out playing us, their pressure and the perceived pressure are making us make bad decisions. Our work rate is not at the level it needs to be to compete against the best sides. I haven’t felt like we have controlled any period of this game and are lucky to be as close as we are. We need to lift big time if we are to win or even stay close. 1
Lord Nev 13,512 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Gawn - 14 hitouts, 3 to advantage McInerney - 10 hitous, 4 to advantage

loges 6,767 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Would be a good idea for some to play in front of their opponent 1
The Stigga 1,096 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Immensely looking forward to this half... What have we got? Looking ahead or to the now?
Dr.D 1,771 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 can they start paying Daniher pushing Jackson in the back over and over. Oliver lift! 1 1

Petty has been ok. agree with the rest 2 goals to fritsch Get your hand off it. 1 was gifted to him in the goal square He's been useless. Watch the game

Red But Mostly Blue 4,631 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 I don't mind losing, but the Lions are not this far ahead of us. I at least want to boys to put that half behind them and make them earn it. Good sides don't get smoked. We're being tested. We CAN do this. Half the team have barely sighted the ball, they should be fresh as to run them off their feet.
Mel Bourne 4,541 Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 We were all very right to get excited by Kozzie - and still are - but in the last few matches a little reality has started to kick in. He’s a kid who’s still finding his way (and boy, won’t he). But I’ve noticed I don’t get the same rush of anticipation when he gets near the ball. Just hoping he does something good with it.
