Neither deserves a suspension imo but the inconsistency is stark again
-
Really and bring in who ? Jefferson ? Schache 😂
-
We are so easy to beat at our home ground
-
Oliver is a complete liability
-
Blaming the umpires is a joke we are embarrassing We are not even remotely competitive Lots of learnings from this one

Thought I read somewhere that he attended the Casey scratch game on the weekend - if true it isn’t really something I’d expect from a player with one foot out the door I really hope he stays as I believe he is very important to our structure in the next 4 to 5 years

They got their GWS awakening in round 0

I hope I’m wrong too but the club has also shown faith in players before that just haven’t made it. Its not an easy competition to break into and be successful and the position he has been recruited for is not an easy one Let’s all hope he continues to improve and evolves more in the JUH style than those the other guys I’ve mentioned. JUH can mark the ball and is learning to compete physically - his kicking is still a bit hit and miss but he clearly has a lot of upside. He is the type of player that I think the club believes Jefferson could be - fingers crossed 🤞

Jefferson was just ok and nothing more - I made the effort to actually watch that game on replay as I’d read the comments in the match day thread about him performing well His direct opponent was a very raw defender who frankly looks like he might struggle to make it Jefferson’s kicking for goal was bordering on embarrassing and he constantly kept running too close to the man on the mark (such a basic and fundamental mistake). I saw little from him in terms of intensity and physicality to give me any more than a glimmer of hope. For me he still sits in the category of talented junior that performed well at times against kids but may never transition to an AFL player We have seen this type of player before - Weed and Schache two recent examples on our list - hopefully I’m wrong but I do have serious doubts that he has what it takes

Potential to cause injury 😂 Is that anything like jumping with your knees into someone? I wonder 💭 Nobody is getting injured from a glancing blow which was all this was - ridiculous imo

Hope he finds the level that doesn’t involve him on TV asap

Maybe some people have suggested Billings Is teetering on the edge for all the reasons you’ve listed low possession count soft as on tackling efforts terrible attrmpts at kicking goals I’m not advocating for him to be dropped but those who are do have valid reasons to question his continued selection
-
Brisbane have been far from impressive so far this season - they will probably get an easy kill against a young North side and a boost of confidence but they are not in great form imo
-
I try to look at these things as if one of our guys was on the receiving end In this case it just seemed quite innocuous and relatively speaking had less impact on the player contacted than a hard tackle that is allowed dozens of times each game Fine maybe but anything beyond that seems excessive to me - if it was one of ours coping that I’m confident I wouldn’t be calling for a suspension

Yep and the free against him for insufficient intent on the Wing was comical He is clearly out of favour with the umpires

Probably realises he has a pretty poor team to coach Apart from a few good players they drop off very quickly
-
Gotta say I was really doubtful Howes was ready but he is really performing way beyond my expectations Great work Blake and keep up the good work McVee, Howes and Windsor 3 very impressive young players
-
Good win without playing all that well - Adelaide are a very ordinary footy team imo
-
4 weeks for that umpire
