We're the reigning premiers not a 2 win basket case The MFCSS is strong here....

We try to defend leads. It will cost us one day either with a loss or failed percentage boost.

This. We have no idea. Often players are given specific roles. I haven't watched the game again but it seemed to me he was trying to keep Alir honest so he wasn't alone as the goalkeeper? So perhaps it was a defensive fwd role which he has done before.

Like Geelong the Dogs would have studied us relentlessly They will try something different and look a different side with Bruce in

Melksham showed that when he centred the ball to Brown rather than blaze away from the pocket

Its not ridiculous. He has been burning team mates for some time now and its a cancer within a team that prides itself on selflessness. Its why Gus goes back to help put the defence, why Spargo runs 100m to open up the fwd line, why ANB makes repeat efforts to keep a ball in the fwd pockets. He is a bighead and it needs deflating. Our success relies on a team game.

I saw that it was 24 deg. The commentary said that it was hot and humid. Regardless - and the point of the post - we are playing one of the best clearance teams in the comp off a 6 break. Our clearances have sucked the last 2 games

We have lost clearances in the last 2 games by 13 and 18 We are playing one of the best clearance teams on the competition this week off a 6 day break in hot conditions. Hopefully Oliver will be back but we are like the little boy with his finger in the dyke at the moment. Lots of holes being plugged Need to lift in the middle big time

There was a graphic on Fox Footy. I suspect its a paid Champion Data stat

Some stats Hitouts to advantage Us 7 PA 9 Scores fm stoppage Us 25 PA 45 Game Pressure 175 to 145 PA (prob to be expected in the heat but geez that was low for us)

Kozzie clinic Viney was great The rest are so out of form its frightening

How many times do we kick into the man on the mar k farrrrrrrr out

The Koz Wow

Stoppage clearances 22 to 11 at 3/4 time Need to lift

We never seem to have any fwds on the goal line. Infuriating instead we keep them around the 50m mark to try and keep the ball in the f50 This is barely watchable.

Zero desperation

Maggots

Benbrown is done

Sparrows disposal abysmal

And last week

Where has our defence gone?

How frustrating is it to watch Unbelievable give these big heads a rocket Goody

He needs to be reeducated. Its pathetic selfish behaviour And pull his finger out. Our most annoying player in the last month

Haven't we only won once wearing it? That should be enough to consign it to history

So it would seem that its not just May or Salem's kicking - its the whole team. Over the past 5 weeks we are 18th in the CData Kick ratings EG Oliver and Petracca have had 46 kicks i50 and only TWO have been marked. Holy cow that is bad.
