Carp. We are missing sitters from everywhere.

Couldn't even blame the umps for this deplorable performance but as a curiosity how is it that only 4 GWS players gave away a free kick outside of Mumford (who gave away 7)? That would have to be some kind of record.

OMac one on one would have to be the worst in the league for a 'defender'

What a joke. J Wagner has turned has turned it over probably 4 times. Our delivery inside 50 is abysmal. Petracca Fritsch, Spargo, Stretch all pathetic. Brayshaw electing to bump instead of tackle. Oliver stupid free. Leadership non existent. This team FMD... They need to turn this around asap. Giants should be 40 pts up already/

If we didn't get Pruess what would we have done if Max went down?

Case rests.

Then sack him and get a kicking coach

Looking to see Rioli rubbed out for his concussion causing sling tackle on Smith

Umpiring has beaten us in Perth again....

He's Oscar's mum I wouldn't worry too much. Thinks he is a combination of Stephen Silvagni, Chris Langford and Bruce Doull. Most of us can see that he is currently a liability. But at least he's tall....

Well he did take out Darling in rd 23..best thing he's ever done.

Was poor on the weekend. Still getting a bit of the ball but missed handballs and turned it over quite a bit. Decision making a bit off as well. Not sure what the problem is there.

Fair comments all except for the turnover by foot. His neat disposal is the only attribute he has unless you count being tall....

Which victim?

WTF? This has been a position since day dot....

Cmon mate Stick Fat

God help us.

On that point I wonder if our brains trust will insist on players wearing decent stops on their boots to stop the debacle in the Prelim of players falling over like they were ice skating??

Oscar slow to the contest as usual ..

He's played one game which we won. Wait a few weeks...

It's @Ethan....he was first to support Baldy

I am truly shocked to hear that....

Melk hold the ball almost horizontal to the ground when he is lining up for a drop punt - its a bizarre way to kick a footy. Our better kicks - Salem and Fritsch - hold the ball on a more vertical axis and drop it low to the foot before releasing their hand. TMac holds the ball very steady and low down minimising also the potential skew to his foot - the exact opposite of Petracca. TMac lifts his leg straight and high. Petracca slams the ball from so high on to his boot it rarely connects cleanly. Clarry kicks for goal with a real cross kick angle. His right leg goes from way outside the line to way inside the line. As a result his set shot kicking is terrible. Drives me spare that these guys don't practice technique more.

TMac practised his set shots a lot.....

Did you watch the 1st qtr when his opponent got 9 touches and ran riot?
