This is a tad grim

This game day thread is a carbon copy of a in-season 2024 game day thread.

Unfortunately. 
 

Poor skills, poor conversion, lack of ball movement. 
 

The only slight difference I see is more chip and less long down the line. 

Getting cut up again from this team.

Yep. Our skills are woeful. 

F me this has turned bad!

This appears to be heading like all other games recently vs Flogmantle 

might get ugly 

Ooof

I saw this twice last year. Don’t know I’m up for another episode.

I’m a sucker for punishment so I’ll likely tune in for the first half of Q3 to see if Goody actually tries something different. But if no change I might turn this off and wait for the learnings. 

Lame 

Agility is not something we have or draft for

One goal in a half, F’ing marvellous 

Those bemoaning lack of a new game plan...it's the cattle. 

As soon as the ball is in motion we can't stop it because we are slow on every line. It's been happening for years. 

We're a tough, slow team. We've never been a fast or skilful team, and unfortunately that's where the game has gone. 

Embarrassing 

Max is standing in front of every pack and getting crunched get him off

Another year same old story, get no reward up fwd and get burned on the rebound

Woof

Just awful

Agility is not something we have or draft for

That effort by Salem in defence was weak.  Walters had all day.

So I thought the game plan had changed, nothing I’ve seen has shown we have changed our games style 1%

Still slow, still dump kick long, our early pressure kept us in this but this is putrid. 

If we serve up this kind of rubbish for the rest of the season Goody is doomed.

About to turn this off....

Horrible, I know it's hot and we are playing in a country location but this is [censored] poor!

I think it has

Tell me please ,   has anything changed apart from the year ?

If we are playing like this for the first ten or so rounds, it will be a very interesting watch to see how the club reacts. 

Bad kicking aside, we are on track for allowing 30+ scoring shots against us. Not going to win many games of footy with that.

Love how they flush just about every set shot & we absolutely butcher our chances time & time again. 

Skill execution is still a major concern of ours. Don’t see how that changes any time soon.
