In terms of personnel available is there anyone we can bring in at the moment or is it a case of moving deck chairs on the titanic?

There were supposedly rumours about May and Lever being injured prior to the game.

Does the panel think we’ve got any players carrying injuries into games (circa 2022) other than perhaps Max Gawn?

It seems to be this part of the season where so many players are carrying niggles or injuries they can play through but must remedy at the close of the season. 

I'm not convinced Max was 100% fit. We obviously rushed him back due to the predicament that we find ourselves in but Max clearly was not over his injury and it showed.

Our disposal efficiency in this game was just putrid. Our handling of the ball, possibly due to the conditions, was also subpar. After the first quarter I thought the Giants adjusted to the conditions much better than we did. They handled the ball better, knocked it better and used it quickly and efficiently.

We just could not handle the ball well and when we did we could not move it on quickly and slow played and either kicked to a contest or directly to an opposition player.

Whenever we tried to move quickly it was if the ball was made of soap or we simply made terrible decisions. It's very frustrating.

august is traditionally the month that assistant coaches are told that they're being re-contracted or not - already david teague has left the tiggas as he wants to be a 'ball movement' style coach not a forward line coach

do you think we will see change to our assistant coaching ranks in 2025?

as a corollary to that, how much change is too much?

As always thank you to our intrepid hosts for bringing us this podcast week in week out. Although Andy you can go back on holidays. We were unstoppable against some of the competitions best while you were on your junket and now have crashed down to earth upon your return. In all seriousness welcome back.

And welcome back to Clarry Oliver. So good to see him tearing it up on the G. I just wish he had his partner in crime Petracca by his side. Would certainly have made a difference on Saturday night.

It was fantastic that he could shut out all the noise from the bleating media about him being on the trade table. I can't wait until the trade week silly season is over and we can put this nonsense to bed.

Hopefully with a full preseason under his belt and his life back to some normalcy he will be tearing it up more consistently next season.

Please comment on the umpiring.

Going to cut the questions off here.

Don't forget that we will be LIVE tonight at the NEW earlier time of 7:30pm.

You can also add the one where Tom Green was clearly in the 5 metre protected area when Petty marked on 50. Would have been a certain goal.

Worst part of this one is that as Petty was running in for goal, instead of paying the 50, the umpire started shouting get back Tom, get back Tom, which probably was a bit of a distraction for Petty...
