Watts is innately soft and it's frustrating, but he will be on the list in two years because he is a number 1 pick with some positive attributes. He won't be anywhere near an elite player though because of the lack of desire and intensity.

Watts' softness is shameful
-
Our stoppage structures are a disgrace

McDonald absolutely mauled in that last contest. No free.
-
Trengove is very disappointing. I can hear the creaking of floodgates.

I don't know what people see in garland

Clearances are a joke.

Umps are on fire.

So who's fault is it? The player's, Schwab's, the board's, coaches' or a combination of some/all? This is getting ridiculous. How does a club spiral out of control in every area? Its a basket case. As someone mentioned above, the major issue i have is that professional athletes can go out into the arena and not try. Regardless of their issues it comes down to their own desire and professionalism, surely. That is the biggest disgrace of all. I really hope a few of them live to have many regrets.

I don't see more than 5 or 6 of the current group as part of the future. It would need to be a complete clean out to rid the club of the current issues. Anyway 2 to 3 years is too long also. I'm not interested in watching another rebuild, and I'm sure many feel the same way.
-
100% correct. I don't rate his performance in the slightest. Anyway, the fact that the kid we drafted to be our full forward/chf for the next decade is player loose man in defense says it all really.

I really don't think there are anymore. We have either burnt them all or they are not the right calibre of people (think Gardner). From an on field perspective, how do you replace a whole playing list and coaching staff?
-
We are in a catch 22. The club can't survive another rebuild. The level of clean out we need will take 5 to 7 years to come back from. We border on financial trouble as it is let alone no one turning up to games and buying memberships for 7 years.
-
It sounds over the top but I think you are actually right. Heads need to roll from the top down. Everyone. The only problem is that in reality it just can't happen. there are too many complexities involved. Hence the club will continue to die a slow death.

How can any professional sporting club seriously dish up this atrocious level of ineptitude?? Never seen it before. What do they do at training? It's clear this is a dead club walking. No drafting can fix this cultural issue.

Good to see Fitzy is leaving an impression on people.

Watching watts prance and tiptoe around in his usual soft fashion in the Vfl today was making me ill. What a disaster. It's like the club has no soul anymore. We won't beat GWS given the heart and enthusiasm they showed today.
-
Viney shminey, there is no silver lining. The club is on its knees and isn't getting up anytime soon. We've been on a permanent rebuild since 64. There is no end to the misery. I've stopped bothering with these questions. Where to next? Further embarrassement and despair, that's where

Why would all of our players be standing still when Geelong has the ball? Why is bate still in the afl? Sellar ain't no player. Why are there never players with 4 meters of Geelong players? These blokes are a joke
-
Fairly spot on although it's time to put Watts and Trengove into The Ugly for mine.
-
I just want to see jack watts make body contact once in my life. Trengove should be subbed for Sylvia
-
Trengove has McLean type pace, post injury. Really holds him ba k.
-
Oh god I feel ill

Watched from the top deck of the northern stand and from that angle it really exposes just how bad we are in every area of the game. Clearances, spread, work rate, hardness, ability to tackle, no hard running, shocking skills, lack of heart, confidence and gameplan where most evident. The players play without heart and soul and I won't be supporting them again until that changes. I have the feeling it won't change with this current group, which means a long road ahead.

Agreed. This is a pointless, patronizing exercise. Trengove was shocking today. Missing when it counted. It was a Green-esque captains game. GRimes not any better with his ridiculous clangers.
