Roost it far

So we’re now down Bowey and Salem. Personally I don’t see Salem offering much anymore. He’s an injury away from another injury. Bowey we need and then we hope Hore can reach the output. Early signs were promising. We’ve now lost Gus and Salem, they’re big big holes to fill. Howes is showing early good signs but who’s replacing Gus?

If Max grabbing the ball and kicking it 10 metres up into the air becomes our strategy then I’m done. Max has an incredible ability to control where he puts the ball. I’d have him drop it at his feet on occasion and have our mids go to work.

I’m always hoping Baker will play well but he’s a certified spud.

Good to see Turner playing. AMW the only one in that lot who may push. Hunter surely needs a few runs.

Post the PA win if we were a bit smarter

I had my doubts coming into the season and was buoyed by the way we’ve played and the potential for improvement that lies within our numbers from the first 5 rounds. Last night, whilst immensely disappointing, doesn’t have me reverting back to doubts. We were knackered and Brisbane were absolutely desperate for the win. [censored] happens. No one on here can tell me that Trac, Viney and Oliver will play like that very often. I’d be surprised if a bug hadn’t got the group whilst away. Take the week, then we’ve got 3 tough games. I’ll reserve judgement until after the Carlton game.

In: Pickett, BBB Out: Salem, Hore

I thought he showed plenty. Good debut on a horrible night to debut. He certainly now knows how much work lies ahead of him.

Sure but what hurt far more than this was the contested work. They smashed us. Our bulls looked tired and sore. 4-2

Woewodin is depth only

That Port game cooked us. 5 day break between Geelong and Carlton is going to be tough. Must win the next 2

4-2 is a great start…..now a break then [censored] gets real

Smashed in clearances, forwards can’t hold a mark, Oliver and Viney awful

We got massively out coached

No

Tholstrup has been good

Can you guys fill in some details.

Yes and No

Let’s spank these muppets

It's my feel currently. i love being proved wrong in these situations

Jefferson is a miss

I should be going to the meeting today but things have come up and I won't be able to attend. Hopefully the 7 dog walkers show themselves and we can move on.

Sadly it appears Salem may of passed his best. Injuries and other issues may of caught up with him. Personally I'm holding judgement until writing him off as he's a one of our smartest footballer's. We can probably adapt his role to make him more than useful into the future.

For me that lid will become slightly ajar when we beat Geelong and Carlton in successive weeks

Can you feel it coming in the rain tonight?
