I found it a little strange as smart as Roos is, that he couldnt find an avenue to goal.

I heard somewhere that his missus was homesick and went back home to WA taking his child with her,hence the big dilemma in his life. The club allowed him to go back home and sort it out. The injuries are secondary.

If the aim is to get nowhere, then yes.

Overall a lesson in how to accumulate a million possessions and get nowhere.

Everytime we think weve found one they get injured or leave. Jurrah, clark etc..... Im Banking on viney and hogan......signs are looking good for watts as well.

Our best two backs are Garland and Dunn. Frawley and McDonald turn it over far too much, normally either by foot, or by holding on to it for too long and getting caught being indecisive.

Bernie Vince said after the game, that this team is desperate for superstar game breaker,but because we dont have one, we need the whole team playing well and giving 100% to win. We Really need Hogan and Viney to develop into something special, maybe a Tyson or Salem could do something over time,but because our most eligible players are so young its going to take time.

Riley , salem and Viney will help when ready.

If we were up against a decent team, i would accept improvement, but the Saints suck and we are worse.

Looked a class above last night.....pity he didnt have too many mates.

Saints were great , they played pure simple footy, a mans game, we were timid and hesitant.

We need to manufacture a tall forward line, id bring in Gawn and King......Viney and blease must also play.

He should have been playing out of the square last night, didnt have a chance as we never kicked it to him. Considering we had no forwards, why on earth we didnt play him at full forward is puzzling.

Spencer cant take a mark to save himself, and thats not good enough, no matter how many hit outs he had. At least Gawn can mark the ball and go forward and kick goals.

6. Watts 5. N. Jones 4. Tyson 3. Dunn 2. Vince 1. M. Jones

Gawn has to replace Pederson and Blease must come in. Might stop us from losing by over 100 points, maybe lose by around 40

Frawley, turnover king.

Good summary.My 12 year old went to bed so dejected.......again. Im so bloody sad and angry weve been lumbered with this lame excuse for a football team.

Its not just the forward line.We needed to win that game.....the saints are awful, and we are worse. Our silly turnovers and poor ball use cost us, we have been able to manufacture goals, kick to space, leading medium size players etc etc. God knows what will happen to us next week against west coast. Im sick of excuses, we are no good , end of story.

He was our best player along with Jones full stop.

We would have to be wooden spoon favorites after that display.

We are a pathetic and disgusting rabble. Ive never been so disappointed.....my 12 year old son is shattered.... I thought you said we were going to be better this year Dad? Youve been saying that every year for the last 6 years.....his whole football supporting life has been a misery so far. I hate the Demons.

How bad was JKH tonight....lifeless and overawed.

One of the funniest things ive heard on this forum.....West Coast will smash us by 100 plus.

What i couldnt understand is that pederson seemed to be the main target up forwrad , why him? Why not Howe out of the square? They hardly kick it to Howe all night....how on earth could you prefer Pederson as our main forward ahead of Jezza.
