This thread should be renamed, The Long drive home in support and acknowledgement to WcW and all of those who travelled to Adelaide to cheer on the team. Can we now stop Gather round please.

I guess there's always a positive. Speaking of which, did you stop at that servo on the way home and run over that old lady's feet?

Whoops.

Yesterday was all your fault for posting this. 😃

Yep. We were. Enough said.

I thought Grundy played well and has been good in all games. My only issue with him is he only took 3 marks despite being the player everyone kicked to. 3 marks is the most he's ever taken in a game . He really needs to fix this. Tmac. I'm sorry I have defended him a lot up until yesterday. Zero tackles. This is inexcusable. When your having a bad day getting your hands on the ball, the least you can do is go and wrap up some opposition players. This reveals a complete lack of effort and can't be ignored. Sparrow is woefully out of form. Goody was too slow to make any changes. Our backline was a rabble yesterday and it looked like amateur hour. Bowser is having a bad season. But it's rare for us to be so poor in this area. Our mids seem slow to switch on in several of our games. We have also had a shocking run of injuries this year . But the biggest issue is our forward line. As mentioned Tmac seems gone. Jvr is in his 3rd game at 19 and we're depending on him. Bbb is greatly missed and I hope he wasn't omitted due to rain. The club is short of a reliable, not injury prone strong experienced forward. We have mids galore but didn't think it was important to cover an aging Tmac and Bbb. Maybe the Max and Grundy combo can ease this problem a little but I'm not sure we can depend on Grundy with his marking issues to hit the scoreboard big time. We don't look like premiers at this point in time and I'm not sure how we fix our fwd problem. Yea we will play finals but like last year will be beaten again. I just don't see the commitment from them.

Gather round sucks. Tx gill. That lack of run summed May up.

If Oliver had turned up earlier on it may have helped.

Our players are slung or pushed so many times after they have kicked the ball.

Ha ha Tmac.

May pulled out of that mark.

What a shocker. Too many learnings. We stank. Sorry but it's true. I can't see this team winning a premiership if I'm honest. Bbb had better have been injured but I don't think it would have mattered much. Our newcomer in Grundy was the only player to show some leadership in the first half.

Yea the only positive for us down back today. Even Bowey has been bad.

Goody has made no changes all day. What game was he watching?

They through in the towel. Sad.

It's a concern.

Sparrow has gone backwards. We are NOT premier favourites. Perhaps the players think they are.

Kozzie should have signed up again yesterday.

It's worst than that. It exposes our fwd line issues. Having Max back will help but unless Bbb stars for the rest of the year we are in trouble.

We just didn't turn up. It's a repeat of the lions game. It's no excuse but to play 3 out of your first 5 games interstate isn't great scheduling. Petty not the same player this year and we have had May out then Lever. Toomos been good but like so many today's has had a shocker. As long as Tmac doesn't get another gig I'll be happy.

We can't win a flag with our fwd line. Tmac is cooked. Bbb is injured a lot and Jvr is just starting. We are missing a big proven quality Chf.

May having an absolute Mare as well. We are not the real deal.

We are lucky its only 2 goals so just maybe we could claw back 2 in the 3rd

Yea the ball is going in quick and often from our fwd line to theirs but Rivers is lost today. Tommos worst game ever. Petty fumbles all the time and Even May has struggled so there's that.

His disposal has been haphazard but he's been getting the pill. Our backline is lost and we have no tall to take a mark inside 50. Jvrs 3rd game and you can't blame him. Huge error not playing Bbb.
