There are some players who get the softest free kicks ... e.g. Curnow.

I haven't watched any of the match ... and won't watch the replay. However, judging from the previous matches ... Our previous success was built on the performances of the A graders ... Trac, Oliver, Viney, Lever, May, Brayshaw. We had a dream run in 2021 with injuries. None of the A graders are playing well, other than Trac. Oliver is a shadow of his former self. Same with Viney. (Is he injured?) And May. The second/third tier players looked good on the back of the A graders starring, eg. Bowey, Langdon, McVee, Fritsch, Petty. We have been selecting players who just aren't up to standard, eg Laurie, Billings, McAdam. I still hold hopes for Petty, but he should play in the backline until he can find some form. Our depth is poor. If any of the current team are dropped, who would come in? BBB is cooked. Schache seems like a lost cause, Fullarton obviously not rated at all. Some of the youngies should get a go, although not all at once! The overall skill level is poor. Turnovers kill us. I get very frustrated by this .... they are highly paid/full time professionals. Kicking/handballing/decision making is their job. If any of us did our jobs that badly there would be adverse consequences. Yes, the goal kicking is bad, but many of the shots were from difficult angles. Disruptions such as Joel Smith/Oliver/Gus' retirement were damaging. FWIW, I think we'll beat Norf.- Christian Petracca’s 2024 Season Ending Injuries
I feel his pain. I had a cycling accident 12 years ago with similar injuries. Can't believe he tried to play on. If we're not in finals contention he should take the rest of the season off.- POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
