Demon Disciple

McDonald x 2, Harmes, Wagner, Bugg, Frost, ANB. The serial offenders. It's ok though, becuase we will replace them with the likes of Kennedy, Weideman, Kent, VDB, JKH, etc. Our list is still pathetic with too many stragglers. A few good one's, but the rest are simply lazy.

Might get howled down for this, don't care. Oliver needs to kick the ball more and handball less. Sure his handballs are quick, but their effectiveness has dropped off remarkably. The game is called football, not handball.

Like the rest of the team, drinks his own bathwater

Trade bait, if anyone wants him. That Tyson and Salem for Kelly swap is getting worse by the week.

They are scoring too easily and our best defender (that in itself is a laugh) is stinking it up up forward. Goody might make the swap back, too bad it is 1.5 games too late.

He cannot get their intensity up, he has ruined our defensive game (which we were developing nicely) and he has no idea what to do up forward. He clearly has no plan B, and his plan A isn't much good.

6 behinds in a row. Our backline panics and has deplorable skills, our mids are too lazy, and our forwards don't chase and can't kick. The only way is up!

1.5 to 2.2, and we're kicking with the wind. Amazing. The entire footy department as to be put on notice. We got way too far ahead of ourselves against the Crows. Goody is kidding himself, the players' as a collective (and just about all of them as individual's) are insipid and pathetic.

Gody was too slow in moving TMAC into the backline last week, now he starts him again up forward. Dumb coaching. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. TMAC lucked out in his first game up forward against the Crows. The fact Goody cannot see this is mighty concerning.

Put in a good word Rod!

And doesn't mind getting in and under or taking a hit

Agree Weids and Kent had to be dropped. Nut for Kent was a no-brainer, anything for Weids was good (ANB will help boh up forward and provide a mid some rest). Prefer Salem to not have been suspended, but Melky is Goody's lovechild, so not shocked by his inclusion.

This. When we don't turn up to play, it takes us an entire quarter to switch on, by which time we find ourselves down by 4 goals with too much work to do over the final 3 quarters. After last weeks insipid 1st and 3rd quarters, Goody should've been breathing fire and brimstone for the entire week. I'd be both shocked and dismayed if we didn't come out all guns blazing this week.

We have bigger problems to deal with first. Like the back-line.

The thing that worries me most about OMAC is he lack of hunger and intensity. He is so lackadaisical and reminds me of Garland's on field persona.

Go after a KPD this year, then try and bring in Peter Wright next year. He'd help relieve Max in the ruck, and is more than a handful up forward.

Agree LT, looking at this draft, there aren't too many that pop out as being 'great' players. Go after May or Lever and get a short-medium fix for our backline.

Hogan has a presence up forward, something that most of our forwards (cough, weideman, cough) lack. Needs to return only when he is ready, but sooner the better.

He also needs to work on motivating the team. If they continue not to listen, make changes.

We stuffed around with the ball in the first quarter, then went more direct in the second, only to revert back to the same bull[censored] in the third. Dumb football and dumb coaching all round. Starting McDonald forward was a big mistake, just because it worked last week doesn't mean it always will. Pedo i thought did a fantastic job, so a bit harsh on him Joeboy. A pity he only had a couple more that gave their all for the entire match. Kent was pathetic, he doesn't get enough of it to be a mid, yet cannot apply defensive pressure in the forward half. He is a man of no position. Bring in Harmes for him next week. Weideman is nowhere near the quality of an AFL player yet (still needs to develop a tonne, and find a spine), stick him at Casey for the rest of the year, as he lacks both the required skill and appetite AFL requires. OMAC has no good games, he either has bad one's or ok one's. He gave away 4 free kicks today (all of which were there) and 6 clangers, so he is either clueless or just a stupid footballer. You don't build backlines around these types of player's. With the likes of TMAC, OMAC and Frost as our KPD's, we probably have one of the worst defences in the league. Lever can't get here quick enough. Jeffy through in one of his classic 'bad' performances today. He has more better days than bad days, but his bad days really are bad. Watts, Salem, Petracca, Wagner (he's never going to be an AFL quality player - so why bother), Vince and Hunt were all below par. Hard to win when more than half your team put in less than average performances. Dees caught drinking their own bathwater again.

A 195cm wooden post would have more of a physical presence and impact than Weideman. Keep him at Casey for the rest of the year, he is clearly not ready, and gifting him games when he doesn't deserve them won't help his development. Same goes for OMAC.

He's had it in for us ever since he sooked it up when Gawn hit one of his pathetic recalled shi!thouse bounces away from him.

Pathetic umpiring or not (the maggots should be sent back to the 2's), you cannot win games of footy giving up big qtr time leads.

1.2 to 4.4. Explains it all really. Do it without the umpires FFS. Want it Dees. Irregardless of their ineptness, an AFL footballer kicks them from 20 out. 50 or not.
