We just lack composure generally. Brisbane have look so composed most of the game.

I’m interstate… Can someone remind me what our forward half looks like?

Fair call

What is Smith going to do?

Pretty weak defending from Bowey there

I can understand that Kozzie will have low possession games and patches where goals are leaner… I t’s a hard position to play. But for the first time this week I thought his effort was really poor, he looked like he wasn’t trying at times. Some of his half chases probably still counted as pressure acts but he needs to lift his intensity. That’s the non-negotiable part of his game and the goals will come if he gets that right, he’s too talented. But we need more from him.

For the first time I genuinely think Kozzie needs a spell at Casey.

Have liked Jordon’s game. He’s added a bit.

Even just a genuine effort would be more than what he’s done so far. Doesn’t look like he’s trying tonight.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Same selection mistakes. Same disposal errors. Same bombing into the F50 with no structure. Are we the only team that doesn’t even try to create/find a leading target inside the forward line? We need 2 genuine tall forwards, not one plus an ineffective ruck/forward and an ineffective Joel Smith. He needs to go back to Casey so we can at least try a half conventional forward setup. And Max/Grundy needs a rethink.

Being made to look slow by a team of geriatrics

Smith getting outmarked way too easily

Umpiring aside, we’re not helping ourselves. Feels a lot like the Freo game

Kozzie deserved that. Should have been a holding free immediately prior

Turner is not close to ready yet

Bowey could be due a spell

Demons are spraying them everywhere. Should be 5 goals up.

And Bowey has been very poor

Melksham has made some poor decisions

This is ugly

Has viney hit a target?

2013 vibes at clearances

Looks pretty light against what North stood to receive for Horne-Francis (before the deal got scuppered by the AFL). NORTH MELBOURNE Trade out: Jason Horne-Francis, pick No.1, 2023 third-round pick (tied to Fremantle) Trade in: Picks No.2, 3, 2023 future first-round pick (tied to Port Adelaide), 33, 53 Effectively would have been swapping P1 for P2 and P53 for a future third (Freo) but receiving P3, future first (Port) and P33. Doubt there would be too many clubs valuing H-F > Jackson at this stage so will be a shame if we can’t do better than what’s been reported.

Sydney actually remind me a bit of our 2018 side. A few years early and embarrassed in the finals but a lot of upside on the list. And having been on the “Geelong’s last hurrah” bandwagon for the last few years I’m now in the “I’ll believe their decline when I see it” category. Should happen but geez they are a strong club. I hate it.

Believe in your team until it’s no longer possible. Go Dees!
