Previously known as LITD.

I think it's time to take a break for me. Some of you Petty supporters will be well pleased. I just don't think a lot of our players hearts are in it this year so I'm thinking why should mine be. It was exciting there for a while when we strung some great games together. But aside from players just content to win a contest and then just get rid of the ball as if it were a bomb, the umpiring has turned me off as well. Also Goodys insistence on playing Petty fwd for two years now is just strange. How many teams have their primary tall average around zero point eight goals a game? And we don't have too many options there either. Three years of poor goal kicking is enough for me. I mean if the club doesn't do anything they can't expect supporters to keep following. Do me a favor. If I post again in the next few weeks remind me of this one. Thanks.

Oliver is the biggest culprit. It as if he's just happy to get the ball and then does anything with it.

This team is going back to the dark old days. Let's pray it's not for another fifty. Bye Simon. You've done well but someone has to be held accountable. Your at the top. The buck stops with you.

Well done Max. You keep trying even when your teammates don't.

True but I think I'm right in calling him inconsistent. He was four years ago.

I really think it's time Goody moves on. I appreciate the flag very much and we came so close to two. But I feel he's just too stubborn and keeps doing things that don't work. And when he makes a change the game is usually done and dusted. I know it's not his fault quite a few have been ordinary today but his playing Petty forward for two years is the definition of insanity. And it's true we don't have the players that's in part on him. And our kicking at goal has to ultimately land on his shoulders as well. It's not unreasonable to change coaches at this point. I just don't think I can handle another year, next year without finals.

Always been hot and cold. Always.

Why does he move Turner so late?

Sparrow in our team says a lot about our depth unfortunately.

Melksham either has a good day or nothing. Sadly it's the latter today.

A gentle zephyr takes poor Petty out of the competition.

Point o rama.

I don't blame Petty. He's not a fwd. It's Goodys fault

I guess we are still a chance. Two goals.

It's getting way too close. If it's not the iffy frees it's the 50 m penalties. Then the lack of calling ports holding the ball. It's not as bad as last week by a mile but it's still pretty poor.

If we get a decent shake from the umpires we are still in it.

Does Oliver ever look.

If Petty plays fwd again, I'll seriously give this up.

Oh Petty. Really

Umps are shocking again.

Right on time umps

Viney is getting on a bit and hasn't played for a while so it's a bit harsh on him. But your spot on about the disposal. Oliver does all the hard work to get the ball and so often just gives it back. Tracca just doesn't seem to get the ball today. Best midfield in the comp to a mediocre one. It's lost without Kozzie. And I'll keep saying it, our fwd line was best when Petty was on the bench.

The problem for me with Melksham has always been inconsistancy. Plays a blinder or two and then disappears for the same amount of time. No coincidence Port piles on the goals when KP goes off. Shame we have to rely on him so much. Tracca needs to show more leadership. Oliver needs to stop just throwing the ball on his boot or his trademark handball over the head without looking. Max keeps toiling. Turner patches of good effort. Apart from Kozzie who has stood out? There is still close to a dozen premiership players out there but you would never guess it. Are we tired from playing only five days ago? Possibly. It is a poor fixture for us. But players who seem to be well down on form from 21...Lever....Rivers...Petty....Salem... Sparrow..( the perennial 12 disposals per game)....Oliver ....and today Melksham...Tracca..and Viney who has maybe come back too soon. Imagine Kozzie playing in a team like the pies. Lets see what Goody does.

What. Rubbish free right in front of goal at the end of the quarter. What's the point?
