Gee he looked good on the weekend and covers both ends of the ground which we missed against the Gliders

One thing that is stark late last year and this year is how easy sides can get inside 50 by switching the ball. 2021 our zone was so good, that we moved in formation, now it is a real issue. Team defence is a mile off. Hope things can change, but we are not playing an exciting brand of footy.

All will be playing Monday I would say.

Bowey was poor, but we can’t drop him on that performance alone. I’d move him forward to cover Spargo.

Hard to see another poor performance like this next week.. but certainly some players need to go out. Petty back forward- created a contest late. In- Lever, Hibberd, Brown. Out- Spargo, McDonald and Tomlinson. Bowey to play Spargos role. He was putrid tonight Bowser.

Except he was worse than both of them

I think our zone needs work.. our position is a mile off. Couldn’t get to the drop of the ball.

Have we seen the best of May?

I think I read or heard that he is only meeting family in Adelaide this weekend during the festival of BS round. Believe he didn’t want to talk contracts during his suspension as he wanted to focus on getting fit and planning his return.

Umpiring has been carp so far this weekend.

Brown Out, Pickett in. Would like to see Viney out for Howes, but not sure Jack would get dropped being captain. I feel he is probably our biggest watch over the next few weeks. Disposal poor, decision making poor. JJ is a much better 3rd midfield option and Koz back will squeeze Jack out.

Fagan a sook, Joe is a goose, Zorko is an average human… my new most hated side!

Bloke is lucky he can play footy..

Is our lack of attacking flair and willingness to take on the corridor- going to see us left behind?? Slow, boundary football will not get bums on seats..

I just thought Landon’s form this year has been poor and we need some additional marking between with the arcs with Max out- Howes can provide this on the wing. I love Viney, but I’m not sure he compliments our mids, I think JJ could offer something different.

I missed the first 45 minutes on Friday night as I was out for dinner. Watching back the replay, our biggest issue was letting Lions have free players off the stoppage, especially in their 50. I counted 3 goals from it. I think focus is a real issue and we cannot afford it this week. Question for anyone- has TMAC been trained as a defender over summer? Is Blake Howe worth coming in for Langdon to play HBF or HFF? Might need some marking ability around the ground. Could Viney play down back and Jordan play midfield minutes?

It is that time of the year to make Sam Reid look like Plugger!

Just read the heading “Unstoppable Bombers Star” Kyle Langford… GC must be developing nicely..

Agree, our form this year is somewhat unknown, best the Bulldogs who are not too 8 and lost to the Lions, who got smashed round 1. Need a win this week

Hibberd in for Harmes (Rivers to play more midfield minutes) May for Petty Schac for Max Laurie or Jordan for Melksham

A lazy, safe performance last night. No risk, no reward off half back. Brisbane let our mids touch the ball and fed off our fumbles.. they were clinical, we were not sharp enough. Hope for the best on the injury front and move on.

Our midfield still pick and choose when to dig in.. been an issue for a year now.

Very ordinary performance, seems we still have major lapses in effort like last year. On form, we have some work to do and some key players out.

Stop fumbling, stick tackles and outwork them…

Blues have the worst running patterns in the comp.. no overlap, just reactive footy..
