Playing corridor footy with the MFC list against better teams = Despondency

Only question is will we get better at it

Game will be over by halftime. Backline is weak as water.

backline is less of an issue than the complete lack of pressure put on by mids and half-forwards

their movement thru the corridor is completely unimpeded

Geez May just stopped and watched opponents run past him a couple of times in that quarter.

And....still yells at his team mates for not covering the space.

Dead set

The problem is the turn over up the ground and lack of pressure back toward them.

I like Agro milkshake, more of that please!

Very good teams like Brisbane have the ability to rip open games very quickly. We would want to stop the momentum quickly after quarter time or this could get worse than Essendons performance last night.

i don't get why sparrow is not doing this

Some of the best we've looked all year until it wasn't

Too many not doing enough - Sparrow, Lindsay, AJ, Sharp

Contest and offence is alright, not amazing but alright, but gee our defence is horrendous.

Cannot defend transition for the life of us.

Hard to know from the tv what’s going on in defence, I suspect they are able to get an extra and use it the whole way down the ground ending in what looks like a loose player inside 50

we're going to have defend the corridor better or we're looking at a shellacking here

Perhaps because Oliver is a bit lost and it gives him a role.

15 i50s and they have 6 goals

Too easy

4 of those were from turnovers up field.

@binman

Clearances 11-11

But Dees centre clearance 8-2, stoppage clearance Lions 9-3

Lazy Oliver, lazy AF

Agree

Only looking for green shoots at present

One day it might all come together

This will be a ten goal loss.

geez windsor. he's supposed to be one of our better kicks

Grrrrrr

Why go backwards FFS??

Steven May caught ball watching in the goal square

May sleeping on the job

That’s amateur stuff right there.

Maysie fast becoming a liability
