Demon Dynasty

Nothing has changed in 2 seasons plus a pre-season now. We are terrible in wet or greasy conditions and have no idea how to play a wet weather style game in these conditions. Also the Sydney ground if shorter than most. Don't play the wings too often. Keep going through the corridor or close to it as often as possible and go as long as you can once you're roughly a kick or so out from kicking it to the 40 or further. Playing wide at Sydney for serious minutes is a death trap. The extra width means you are taking the long way around, bogging yourself down and allowing the oppo to get back and set up nicely in defence. SG would not have witnessed any of these strategic problems as he coached from the bench all night. Were these issues passed on to him at half time from the brains trust in the box? Didn't appear so.

Ben Brown in for the Shack but how far off is he if at all? Jvr a bit of a rucking role and play him a bit higher up the ground

Rivers into the middle ...too little too late

Bro says he's seen enough of Chin, Spargo & Laurie. Time to move on

Where's the Grippo boys? Fumble city

Classic example there. Sparrow gathers... then fumbles. Then Clarry over runs the ball.

No skills by hand. No enough instinctive tap ons. No forwards have stood up other than a few sneaky opportunist goals from Fritta. Open players everywhere when we turn the ball over. Where's the close checking hard nosed pressure and defense in general play?

Haven't found players by foot most of the night. Too many panic up and under kicks. No run & carry. Too many dropped marks and fumbles. Sydney has ruled the ground ball and more sure by hand when they get hold of it

Where's the highly rated mid field tomight? Woeful

He chose the outside 5 option. The best option for any kick from the boundary when its OOTF. But was then ordered to stand 10 meters away instead of 5.... go figure. Umps making the rules up on the run. And as per usual its mostly us getting the rough end of the pineapple.

Lizard the only one giving them any run and overlap off HB. Shut him down FCS. Rivers? McVee?

another dropping / inccorect disposal.....had all the time in the world...GET STUFFED Rivers bah

Haha that was A THROW ...get stuffed!

Finally a comtribution from CP5

Drag Spargo FCS....just cost us the lead

How was it not incorrect disposal just before the PITB to Jack?

Rivers & ANB also very quiet so far

Worst game from Tracc for a while?

Spargo & Chin .. my god. Juddy a bit of class at last

The biggest worry is no run or connection by hand. Mostly up & under kicks and the mid field looks to be right off the pace. That's aside from the usual forward woes.

Hard to say from this vision. Would need to ve watching from behind the goals to tell what he is or isn't doing. Mostly 'isn't' so far

Chin shows more endeavour and effort but unfortunately neither of them are up to the challenge so far. Laurie's a wet rookie. Chin's had a few more goes. Chin hasn't performed since about round 8 or 9 last season and only minor impact since returning from his (too) short stint in the mcgoos. Too easily pushed off the contest for mine.

My kingdom for a genuine CHF... 2022 2023 & ?

Howes, May, Lever and Tomo doing ok

The Roo & Shack forward .... so far 🤮 Admittedly the delivery has been putrid also Shack has competed well up the ground
