Our setup at ball ups or throw in is disgraceful. They have 2-3 unmanned behind the pack and every clearance goes to one of them and then run the ground. Bloody man them up or go Coach under 7’s. Pathetic.

Turnover kings of the AFL. Totally skilless.

Well done Dec go get em. Enjoy the day drunkn I am sure you will.

Actually I think we bought the batteries for Salem. Didn't he have a thyroid problem the first couple of years and missed a lot of footy?

That has been another feature of the poor start to the season.

I am working my way through Game of Thrones and am now into season 4 and what I find very strange, is that I haven't seen a single banana. Clearly if the Director was looking for realism, he would have shown a few bananas.

Not sure about great player, but when fit he is a good player and tough and we don't have a lot of them.

No, we wanted to keep him, obviously on the back of the last few games and first 2 finals of last season.

He should have been fitter at the start of the season.

Keeping him, in hindsight, is looking like a bad decision, when he wanted to go to the Swans and we could have traded him for a young player or pick. He has been injured for the last 3 years, with a run at it only late last season.

Wow. Pretty hard to win games with 13 players out injured. Jetta is getting close to the rest of the season. AVB and KK could be as well. Joel Smith is possibly round 15 resuming in the VFL and will then need a few games to get fitness up, so nearly the end of the season. Lever , May, Hannan, Maynard and JKH at least the 2nd half of the season at best. Just wow.

Therein lies the problem.

Bu the boat could be on a trailer in the garage.

My usual position.

Feel free, I am a sharing person. BTW, it is an original.

Disagree with the barn door bit, as he actually passes pretty well. Better than most of his team mates, who couldn't hit a wall if they were locked in a small room.

You are meant to position yourself before your team mate passes it and in our case there is no one in position when he gets the ball. Therefore he looks like a headless chook, trying to work out what he is going to do with it. I think he has been one our few good players this season.

Have they blamed the MFC yet?

Pretty quiet on the banana front today.

Totally agree.

From what I saw I agree. He seems to be playing not to get hurt and avoid body contact and his disposal has become like ours.

Nailed it Rusty. I actually don't think he could have avoided the bump.

Every club seems to be celebrating the emergence of new players except us. I don't know how many goals we lost and then gave away because of skill errors. Petracca must have fumbled 10 times. I wouldn't blame Taylor for our list, as I think he has been directed in the sort of player to draft. I am confident he can pick up some different types of players, if allowed to.

10 possies at 40% efficiency is 4 effective possies for the game. Brought in to apply pressure and laid 1 tackle. Fumbles, I lost count.

2 tackles inside our forward 50 speaks for itself. Turnovers speak for themselves. Sh-t disposal again by hand and foot, against the slickest side in the comp, will get you a loss every day of the week. Brayshaw and Oliver, our 2 key mids, got plenty of the ball and simply butchered it. Goody can't do much about that. We need to go back to the drawing board and identify our weaknesses and then develop a plan to remedy them. That includes bringing in pacy, skilful players and making changes to our assistant coaching panel, who clearly are struggling with devising a simple game plan that we can play to. Yes injuries and surgeries have hurt us, but so has our list and gameplan. 2 goals in 3 quarters is reminiscent of the Prelim last year. It is just unacceptable. BTW, I thought Hunt and Petracca were pathetic tonight. For those who keep knocking Frost, I suggest you watch another sport. He has tried his guts out this year.
