Decision making is poor and he squibbed it multiple times.Gone backwards.

No, just no. In fact, he underperformed massively given the occasion.

We have many problems but Jones aint one of them. Let's start with a gameplan that doesn't work. Overpossess in the midfield and bomb long on the top of Garlett's head. Refusal to switch, etc. A defence where four of our six (Jetta, Hibberd, Lever and Hunt) are hopelessly out of form. No outside ball carriers of quality. A one paced midfield. NQR's making up bottom six. Harmes, ANB, Stretch, etc. A ruckman that dominates but doesn't benefit the team in clearances. No defensive crumbers. Everyone must fly simultaneously. Selection that sees Fritsch dropped but Harmes play...

6. O Mac 5. Max, although his tap out dominance did not mean anything. 4. Jones 3. Melksham 2. Clarry 1. Lever. Note: Hogan's stats are good but 50 percent disposal efficiency doesn't cut it. Same as Tyson

Neal Bullen, Stretch, Harmes are horrible. Game plan is atrocious. No outside runners that can dispose of the pill.

Bizarre. Quarter time last Sunday McCartney was doing most of the talking. Don't like this one little bit.

Really frustrating that Fritsch has been dropped. Harmes did sweet FA last week and was a liability. Fritsch was clean and was decent one on one.

Difficult, but 6. Salem 5. Oliver 4. OMac 3. Hogan 2. Gawn 1. Fritsch.

Farcical.

Agree with this. Horrible footballer. Can imagine opposition coaches let him get the ball because it is advantage them. Another one allergic to tackling. Harmes has to go. Terrible. Melksham must be on thin ice. Bugg probably. His skill errors are momentum killers. These four gone won't make a single bit of difference though. We have much bigger issues that can't be fixed this season. Like playing ring a ring arosy football at stoppages. Like having no outside players of quality. Good players like Jetta, Hibberd, Hunt, turning into turnips overnight, etc.

One of the more disturbing tactics from a supporter point of view this season is the bomb it in long forward entry. Time after time our midfielders run foward and rather than hit up a leading forward, kick to what seems to be a designated spot. Now I am sure there is a method in the coach's madness but it also means we don't maximize the marking options we have. For instance, young Fritsch ran to create space many times on Saturday and was ignored on every occasion. He is a terrific overhead mark. Are we doing this to make use of a smaller forward line? Are we playing the percentages? Thoughts/theories?

No, just no!

6. Kent 5. Lewis. 4. Gawn 3. Jones 2. Salem 1. Tyson.

6. Hogan 5. Jeffy 4. Clarry 3. Jones 2. Tyson 1. Melksham.

Harmes is a headless chook. Lewis is not a backman. Bugg is horrible by foot. Jetta is not half the player he was last season.

Mmnn. No real storyline or message. Written by committee I assume.

Apart from one scrubby goal, did not see Maynard do a thing in the JLT. Looked a long way away from being AFL standard. Wagner has some decent attributes but makes too many mistakes. Don't really like these ins. Prefer Bugg actually. Early in season the elite runners come to the fore.

Just because someone is paid to give an opinion in a ridiculously oversaturated market doesn't make his or her opinion any more pertinent. And just because someone gives an opinion we don't like, doesn't mean we all need to be so childish and go on some shoot the messenger rant.

Run into an open goal and miss from seven metres? There you have it.

Short answer, yes!

Think it is Fritta. Same as what the lads from Coldstream call him. Just as an aside, his father's nickname is the General. One of the toughest blokes you would ever come across. Despite the small frame Bayley won't be a shrinking violet.

Maybe just me, but i'm more interested in how he ended in a refugee camp in Ethiopia than at a footy club. Missed opportunity by the writer.

Right...

Love Blighty. Has an opinion. May or may not be right. Not gonna shoot the messenger!

You don't 'fluke' premierships in any sport. They are earnt. The Dogs more than earnt theirs by defeating a very good Swans team.
