Can't blame the coaches for everything. Players do have brains. Allegedly.

It’s the coaches job to get these players fired up. We are watching top 4 slip away and nobody cares. 
Get angry FFS!!!!

    So much for the midfield group stepping up to cover Clarry not being there. Hopeless.

    Our forward entries are putrid. Bomb it in or when we have a fast break into attack our forwards run back toward goal instead of up to the ball carrier

    Summary up to 3Qtr time 

    overhandballing 

    turnovers 

    losing clearances 

    bombs to inside 50

    goody outcoached again 

    missed tackles 

    missed opportunities Fritsch Spargo Kozzzy 

    Surely Spargo has to be dropped 

    WHAT CAN WE DO?

    Just need to be smarter going inside 50

    use the corridor 

    stick tackles 

     

    These guys still think it is 2021, selfish and soft football.

    They aren't going to win games burning so many opportunities and palying selfish football.

    Nothing short of pathetic. Of Goodwin's 6.5 seasons as coach we've put up with 4 seasons of just average football that gets beaten as soon as the pressure is brought around the ball. Freo are a ruckman down, their spuds are running rings around us. It is a common narrative against us.

    Voss v Goodwin next week is battle of No Game Plan From Planet B Coaches.

    Our clearance game is so rubbish. We need wholesale changes next week.

    JVR, Chandler; probably AnB all gotta go

    We have too many smalls in the forward line. One of Spargo, Chandler and ANB need to come out for a mid or tall forward.

    ANB for Melksham.

    Looking forward to the post game thread where people can tell us we don’t understand players roles.

    We overcomplicate this game.

    This score line is not the umpires fault.. we are playing negative & uninspiring footy. Our game plan is playing right into their hands. No dare. 

    And what gameplan is that?

    Pick 13 for Jackson... such good negotiators we are

    But last week Perth media hawking he's no action Jackson.

    Except of course we let him have his best game. So us of old.

    Forget winning a flag. We can't even win this one.

    The wheels have really just fallen off. 

    Tmac shouldn't play again and Grundy and gawn need to take a look at themselves. Lever and may too.

    Top 4 ? We have the hardest draw in the 2nd half. We are a chance to drop out of top 8 after the next 4 games as we have 0-4 written all over us.

    If players need someone to motivate them, they have an issue.

    I’d like to see Gawn hit it to a player in blue just once out of the middle, stand up skipper and be a match winner!

    We have problems everywhere Center clearances, defensive stoppages, ball movement, goal kicking.

    We aren't that quick either.

    Alarm bells are ringing in my head.

     

    If this is how our midfield operates without Oliver then we have a pretty long month ahead.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
