Why is the forward line still dysfunctional by Round 16?

it really is fascinating

I’m not a fan of what Spargo did that’s borderline corruption for it to be paid HTB one minute after Toby. 

[Red But Mostly Blue 4,551]

We're making terrible decisions. May has saved our backsides too many times already.

For the few times we've made it into the forward 50, who's taking the marks? Almost like we could do with somebody tall out there! What's the gameplan here!?

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

This is pretty much going as expected.

 

[Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,787]

Commetry as bad as the Umpiring

[Devil In Disguise 2,278]

Wow what a surprise. No tall forwards to kick goals for us.

Getting smashed in the centre clearances. Also leave McDonald, fritta or Jackson in the 50 so we have a target. 

This is not top of the ladder football

Yep why do we always tap the ball behind, dominate ruckman and we hit it behind, if we don't win it gives them an easy clearance 

[bobby1554 1,267]

Here at the ground. We are nowhere near it. Flat as a tack. GWS will win this by at least 6 goals. Forward line is dysfunctional. Good bye top 4

Probably blame the umps more than the player, they can simply call it correctly

[Canplay 635]

Nibbler, Clarry and Harmes turn it over far too often and we desperately need a tall option in the fwd line.

Yep

Fox sports commentary fails to call it a duck

It's disgusting. And to cap it off, with that weasel Greene.

Why is it that we take forever to get going?

Plus our entries into 50 ?. Even a half good Brown would get the ball to ground from which our smalls could rove. FMD, it’s sooooo simples.

We take forever to get it in because we look up and see a midget fleet as our only options inside 50. Appalling non selection. Teams have worked out our game plan and we just stick to the same old stuff 

[demon3165 2,814]

Stop blaming umpires we are have no idea how to enter the forward line we had enough entries we just waste them.

[640MD 3,482]

[censored] our game.  No atmosphere at all

[leave it to deever 17,545]

Its pretty strange when the number one team simply cannot come out and smash a team....just ONCE

[SPC 3,571]

Of all our 22.. Hibbo makes me most concerned. Very nervous, fumbles and often ball watches.. need Lockhart in 

[Guest]

Despite my pillorying of Eddie over other matters, he is calling this game well.

[Mickey 4,752]

Goody: Right boys, we really need to fix our mid forward connection so we need to lower our eyes when going forward.

ANB: Are we going to bring a key forward in, Goody?

Goody: We've already got him, mate. You'll be our lead up forward this week.

ANB: ?

3 highest possession winners for the quarter were defendets. Oliver ineffective.

Poorest forward connection for a top team ever. 

Gws system and connection far superior. 

[dees189227 12,435]

Gee these players need a rocket especially our midfield. No urgency

[Diamond_Jim 12,642]

This team is starting to remind me of the usual MFC

lost at selection table.

All the talk of defensive forwards is nice but you need to score to win

[praha 11,240]

We look flat everywhere except down back.
