    Didn’t worry  us last year with Clarry out.

    Why didn’t the Coaches change the mids positioning and also personnel ie Rivers  say in 2nd quarter. Even say changing Harry with Tmac to get him into the game.

    Hood too often makes changes to positions etc after the result is almost or a foregone conclusion. Needs to act in the 2nd quarter not 4th. 

    2023 was a hard year to watch re: Clayton out

    I was hoping this year would be different, with our pressure on the ball carrier being through the roof

    Lions smacked and cannoned into us all night

    Goody won’t make changes - he sticks to structure

    Never ever again. Amartey rag dolled him. He’s got no desire for the contest.  Talent is not enough at this level.  

    Amartey's game was horrible - and, once again, he was charged from behind

    Let's find some legitimate reasons?

    The Axe:

    Chandler, Spargo, Billings. Shack.

    Injured:

    Bowey.

     

    In:

    Kosy, Big  Brown, Little Brown, Tommy, Woey.

     

    On Notice:

    Van Rooyen.

    Must stop trying to be Tommahawk.

    Lead up the ground, keep in front, attack the ball overhead with soft hands.

    Go to the ball carrier, maybe view some old footage of Neita leading to the ball. If you must hit the pack split it open, they’ll soon look over their shoulder.

     

     

     

    Man, imagine him in our fwd line now?

    I'm not one to bag players, and was more than happy to be open to the idea schache might be OK.

    But as we saw with weed, if a player hasn't got instinctive grunt and fire they rarely can develop it.

    Slippery night, so the talls get a pass on marking, but his lack of second efforts and inability to hold his ground are woeful.

    Both were on display in a contest where Grundy marked on the wing, on his chest. Weak effort by schache. They got a goal as a result.

    And those attributes means it hard to see him making it as a second ruck. 

    I'm hearing you, but to be fair to Schache, Grundy cannonballed into him and he's much bigger and stronger

    He's not a 2nd ruck

    And while we're on it, Grundy ran into Gawn ALL night and Gawn did nothing to allay the tactic

    Dumb play or dumb coaching?
