Daisy needs a big 2nd half.
 

Not sure if it’s just superior opposition or the improved standard of the game has gone past her best.

 

Short kicking does not work.

Erin Phillips 3.2.20

Melbourne 0.2.2

I don’t like saying it, but Daisy needs to be dragged. She can’t hold down a spot at HF. Too slow now

Adelaide are smashing us. Should be 7 goals up

We have too many midgets

Some of these crows women will put a fortune through the canteen after the game too 

Zanker has to back up ruck and Parry stay at CHF because we are absolute a mess there 

Might go watch the replay of the granny on kayo instead

Pearce, Zanker, Hore, Bannon, Parry, West have collectively done 2/5ths of FA. Oh and Mithen too

Any chance we can play on? Instead of trying the slow possession game. Only allows Adelaide to set up.

This is the worst performance I can remember from our girls ever. They cannot find anything forward on centre. Zanker, usually one of our best, has had a complete stinker. Coach really needs to spin the magnets and change something in the last. This is a really embarrassing performance

We are. Playing way too fast. Need to slow down and get numbers around the drop. The lack of coordination from our forwards and mids is alarming 

Taylor Harris is a shadow of her former self. Lost all conditioning and looks unfit and uncoordinated. Unless she is jumping at the ball, completely useless 

A bit of noise of affirmation going on.

An off day or we’re a class below the elite?

Hopefully the former.

We’ve struggled to manage more than 2 possession chains.

Crows have 4 out with covid protocols and lost their captain mid game plus another two and it’s 14 shots to 2. 

disgraceful performance 

Maybe, just maybe we are not good enough.

After today, yep I’m getting there

Yeah …we are way off the benchmarks. We cannot get the ball moving with any fluidity at all. The signs were there the last 2 weeks, but we did enough to get over the line. Against a quality outfit today, we have been completely shown up.

It’s not a day to judge the forwards too much, she’s had a good start of the year. But she only likes to chase if she can nail someone in a tackle which is the wrong attitude. 

The amount of fumbles is a disgrace. A lot of players hearing footsteps.
Two weeks is a row of rubbish (bar the final qtr last week). And not working hard enough as demonstrated by being out numbered at nearly every contest.

They are capable of so much better than this.

She is second to the ball and when she ‘nails’ one it is clumsy and she gives away free kicks. Simple as that

That 3rd quarter was pathetic. Let us just hope that it is the worst quarter of footy we play all year. 

No use complaining about the forwards… the ball isn’t getting in there. The inside 50 count tells that. 
while we move the ball though the short kick and mark  game  and attempted handball it slows the movement into the forward line.

Holding the ball interpretation is a JOKE
