Anyone close to the club spoken to Melksham lately? 4 weeks ago he be thinking we’d be sitting nicely inside the top 4 and he would be our wildcard going into finals.

Unpopular opinion but if a loss to North means we change the way we play then I want a loss. I watched the last 1/4 or so of Pies v North last week. Pies had Hill one out in the goal square and kicked it low and direct to him. Hill is a difficult match up, so is Fritsch but how we use him differently to how the Pies would. Also if the Pies are deep in the pocket they centre the ball, hardly groundbreaking stuff.We’re getting smashed everywhere currently but it’s alright because we finished top 4 the last 3 years. If a loss means that whatever is going on at the club brings about the changes needed then I want a loss. The last 4 weeks has been unacceptable but apparently we’re allowed to use injuries as an excuse. We’re becoming hard to watch, I’d rather lose trying to play a fast exciting brand of footy that allows us to kick a winning score than continue doing what we currently are.

Two Carlton players run into each other and it’s a free to Carlton.

Terrible free to McKay.

Eagles have fielded a strong side.

Not sure if previously mentioned but Cadman had been dropped by GWS.

I’d be giving TMac a 1 year deal on low coin if he’s interested.

Bobby Hill + pick 40 for pick 43 & future 2nd rd. Can anyone remember why Hill left the Giants?

So is Luke Beveridge, we’re all grateful for 2021 but maybe a change is needed.

They would know. The ammount of time spent together, they know.

What’s most frustrating is there is only one team in the competition playing consistent footy this year, one. Teams have been falling over themselves this year, and here we are languishing outside the 8. When we decide to move it quickly we actually look dangerous at times.

I’d like to see Goody release the shackles for the rest of the season, what we’re currently doing isn’t working. If he’s not prepared to do so he needs to step aside. Let’s play a fast paced game and see who can cut it, are the players actually enjoying the game at the moment?

When we decide to move it quickly we actually look alright. But we chose to go slow. Something is amiss at the club, but let’s keep playing secret Santa.

11 of their best 22 out. A team full of ordinary kicks. Cant stick a a tackle. Cant kick a goal. So much talent yet this is what they serve up. We are currently a joke. No excuses.

Oliver’s disposal by foot is bloody ordinary.

We need a new voice.

So this is what manic pressure looks like?

Hold it up, let the Pies flood back before bombing it in long.

Open up the fwd line and get it in there quickly. JVR, Fritsch and Kosi play deep, kick it long, low and direct. We know the Pies will bring manic pressure early, so ….are we awake….

I thought we were past all that.

Totally agree, we destroyed all before us.

Were the qtrs shorter in 21?

It’s almost like unless we have a full list to chose from we’ve always got an excuse. If only we had a gun key fwd we’d be unstoppable, Carlton have two (McKay hit and miss but having arguably his best season to date) and there 5th. Pies won the flag last year with Miohcheck as their big man. Our gameplan is not working, we can’t score, we’ve gone from bombing it long to a congested fwd line to kicking it with more purpose to a congested fwd but so wide a lot of our marks our deep in the pockets. Our smalls have a habit of not being in the right spot.

Collingwood’s fwd line on Friday night, Hill, Schultz, Harrison, McCreery, Lupinkski & Frampton. Now compare our gameplan to theirs. Yes McAdam needs to go back to the VFL.

We’re overthinking it, I don’t think it’s our fitness or president, it’s our game plan. Yes defence is important but we have lost the ability to score. In 3 weeks we’ve gone from potentially 2nd to outside the 8. If we’re not going to change the way we play may as well shut up shop.
