Is Chandler hitting the scoreboard??

I didn't see George play last week, but I saw footage of him from 2020 and he is very, very skilful. I'd take a punt on him now if he's keen. I reckon he'd be another Seston smokie

I also think Turner could be replaced by a tall. I reckon he's better suited down back even though he got 3 goals recently. I worry that Goodwin sometimes keeps faith in his players far too long during a game and sometimes for a number of games. We can only carry a certain number of players before we end up paying for it. You could say the same thing about strategy (taking too long to react) and assistant coaches ie why is Stafford an ex ruck coaching our forwards??

I'd like to see Laurie and McAdam in place of Chandler and Billings. Neither Chandler or Billings have set the world on fire.

We have a great defensive game, but a crappy forward one. In defence we set up when in attack we blaze away. We rarely lower our eyes, kick to pockets and to contests. Why can't we lower our eyes, honour leads and chip to a player in a better forward position instead of kicking to a contest and then trying to score from any resultant ball up which is still a 50/50 as Gawn doesn't always tap it to our mids on a plate. This is why I like Spargo in the side he has great footy IQ and always chooses the best option. We usually lose games because we don't maximise our chances, kick from pockets and don't execute high conversions for goal. Bad kicking is bad football.

Rest Chandler, he can't run and isn't contributing

What about Billings, I'm not sold on him, thoughts.

He should!

We need to learn from this game and stop gifting games to any player out of form.

We are so predictable. You didn't need to be a fortune teller to know we'd lack energy tonight. This is so similar to the Brisbane game. We really lack smarts. Why they didn't inject some fresh players beats me.

We should've brought in more fresh legs

Viney looks disinterested

Didn't see the Casey game, but watched highlights of him at Peel Thunder in 2020. He looked good then and looks a likely type at 22.

Jason Taylor knows his stuff

NGA doesn't work for Vic clubs, AFL make it too hard.

Hope Kalani is ours in 2025 draft.

He wasn't on his Pat Malone. So many kicks went to oppo players in the clear when we had time to deliver. Windsor across the ground to CHF to a tiger all by himself when Fritsch was expecting a handpass as he streamed towards forward and just before half time in last 40 secs a kick from Fritsch went direction to an oppo player that nearly resulted in a goal. Also Tom McDonald in the centre of the ground that gifted Martin a goal against the run of play. Chandler also had quite a few clangers.

I worry about the example they show for the young kids playing the game on 2 points one money buys you out of trouble and secondly it's okay to hit someone. Dislike television commentators on 7 for saying it was with a open hand just so it's okay and how the hell can they tell that from their commentry position. To makes thing more obsurb Marlon Pickett gets a discount with an early plea.

Windsor had 6 kicks but a couple of times he kicked straight to a Tiger which lost us momentum

Yes he's a good kick, that's in part why I was so annoyed just b4 half time with 30 secs on the clock that he kicked it straight to a Tiger when he had so many options. Luckily Grimes kicked a point.

Cripps won his Brownlow after Blues got legal eagles involved

Bernie Vince played 100 games for us. Hopefully if he has kids they choose us over Crows.

Our forwards are too static and predictable. They clump together and make it easy for their opponents to defend. Also going to the pockets makes it less pressured for them as well. Would like a new forward approach and definitely a new coach going forward. Stafford played in the ruck and his coaching shows that.

Sometimes they're worse.

Thought what Answerth did was pathetic and a reflection of his [censored] character. Thought the same of Sydney's Parker against Essendon. Dislike both.
