It is one ace we have up the sleeve. He is a natural in the middle. I do worry about filling that wing side though it’s just a bit of an unknown.

Yeah pretty sour on footy. Been a real Netflix day.

Set shots wanting Didn’t keep heads Kick or quit

First of all, I hope everything works out for you without a hitch. Second of all what the??

I see where you’re coming from completely as I’ve felt bounces and throw ins have been rather pathetic for a while but seriously how many training wheels do we have to add to get people to do their job properly? To me this is in the same category as goal kicking. It is something that gets fixed with lots and lots of practice. I know it’s boring but do it with a friend at training, everything is more fun with a friend. Or better still go to a fricken park and bounce the ball and throw in for 30 mins a day I guarantee you will get better. The number of short throw ins has gone to a new level. Botched bounces sort of make sense but throw in standard slipping down is just cringe, get better at it or just invent some kind of football tennis machine to throw in for them. A nice advertisement for when the AI takes over anyway. We live in a time where cloud based, zoom meeting, app this app that is forefront. Let’s get back to the fundamentals of life and just sheer hard work at something to get better at it.

Need to kick straighter. I really have nothing else to say about such a simple topic. It's not even a question just get it better or find someone who can.

There might actually be something to that. Seems to be carrying extra in the rump.

I will say this, the lessons are about to get more expensive.

Very well put but I'm sorry I was a little sidetracked. I saw you were from Coorparoo and all I could think of was Jason Dunstall country. A man who knew how to kick straight!

We need better celebrity supporters. We’ve been saying it for years and it’s the exactly the reason we stuffed it tonight. Would have definitely helped with our forward structure.

Let’s be honest. How many players in our team could regularly kick set shots from 50 out? Actually forget that how about 40 out? Some of the ways these balls were missing was embarrassing either not making the distance or being way off. Fix it now, win finals, deliver us the flag.

Anyone else notice we tend to stink after 9 day breaks? Yet off 5 or 6 days breaks we’re golden. It’s like this group is better off when they roll on through battle hardened and too long of a break is like ring rust. I don’t know.

Those dogs sure know how to put it through the big sticks

“Get your hands off me you dirty bin dipper I’m trying to see the solar eclipse”

Before we trade him can we just try him as a defensive forward for a bit?

I can’t believe I’m even wondering if we were better off not taking advantage from the Viney free and kicking to Pickett. Nah he should have just played on :p

Dr D is a genius too beautiful for this world...

It was Melbourne tonight in a nutshell and an excellent insight as to where our heads were at. I want players that want to win and not players that make it about themselves.

Too true, last thing we need after this is a cruddy sleep.

Appreciate the level headedness. I’m sure I’ll be able to focus more on this stuff tomorrow.

I don’t know but we need a better one. It is a basic fun-da-mental of the game. Bad kicking is bad football that is not a good debate topic it is cast iron fact. Get it right Melbourne.

It would be nice if we good turf the theory that this only happens against bad sides and our record against good sides is great. It means very little. Give me bankable wins over crud opponents over taking our chances against quality opposition any day.

Yeah Hawthorn played well. Teams like that should play well while we canter away to a 3 or 4 goal win thus getting the job done. Not putting one over us every time.

What a crap on a stick these votes are going to be.. 6. Oliver 5. Petracca 4. Salem 3. Lever 2. Petty 1. Jordan Get bent

Yep, and good to note that they simply played better than us.
