Ditch the new game plan right now. Go back to putting all our efforts into winning the contest, ball ups and centre bounce and pump it forward. Van Rooyen , Fritsch, Kozzy, etc may benefit with the ball coming in fast . I know we missed finals because of this approach but it was mainly inaccuracy. Get back to our DNA!

I really had my heart set on this group winning one more flag on the G so we could see it live , but alas it looks like I’ve got to resign myself to the fact it’s not going to happen.

Other midfields are going past us Oliver is not the same player he was

Lost 3 of our last four and we look a listless bunch. Cant see any miracles from here, they just don’t have that desire and manic attack on the ball anymore. We bowed out of finals in straight sets the last two seasons and this year we may not even make the 8!

Absolutely wrong. They are doing as they please under no pressure at all. The year we won the flag our pressure was manic. That was my point. whether I personally have played footy at an elite level or not is completely irrelevant

Any chance we could turn up to a game with the mindset of putting immense pressure on the opponent?

North will have their first win against us. Mark it down.

We have definitely lost that hunger and mongrel we had in 21. This uninterested mob will struggle to even make finals this year.

I think we can safely book a September holiday now

I feel ill

Non efforts by Fritsch are disappointing

That’s a few times in the last three games I’ve noticed Mcadams lack of penetration in his kicking

That was the most satisfying non Dee’s win of the year

Sam Darcy my new favourite non Dee’s player

Windsor looks like he needs a rest, so a full game for Woewodin next week Maybe Jefferson in for McAdam ANB has been good at centre bounces Van Rooyen was better this week still young so lots to like and to build on.

Does the panel think we are a genuine top 4 contender still? It’s looking more and more to me that we are lacking depth and have too many inconsistencies in our game to be truly considered a threat this year. We also seem to have no answer when Max is targeted by the opposition and in turn why do we hardly ever tag a major midfield ball winner such as Reid this week and Walsh last week?

Losing Gus, Harmes and Jordon means we have no depth in the midfield and have actually gone backwards with guys like Billing’s . Sparrow is no A grader either, and as much as we hate hearing it the forward line is always a work in progress, but now it’s getting too late to fix. But it’s the lack of intensity that really worries me, we just don’t seem to have that hunger we displayed three years ago.

Viney and Oliver aren’t as good as they once were Max is getting too old now and we have no forwards. Premiership window officially closed.

We have become embarrassing as a side. i don’t care if we beat StKilda next week now, we would have to win the next four in a row for me to have any more faith in this team. Is Viney playing?

We basically have no wings tonight, Langdon out and Windsor having a shocker
