When you're running free in the middle of the ground and you kick it 3ft over the top of the leading players head only 25 metres away, that's not good enough.

I was as excited by the emergence of Nathan Foley as anyone. He was a welcome spark into an at the time very slow midfield.
However...
With the exception of one maybe 2 games Foley has been letting himself down with his disposal since his comeback, today he was below average, AGAIN, nearly everyone he handballs it to gets crushed by a tackler instantly. That missed kick Wayne was high school stuff.
He is getting caught with the pill a lot more than he used to as well. There is no sign of improvement in this area since the comeback. He has lost a yard of pace and his evasive skills have suffered because of it. He seems to have lost that sixth sense of knowing when he is hot hot hot!
Must be traded.
Mitch Farmer, again, I liked his first few games, but as it turns out, he is just not good enough for AFL footy, it was a major blunder by the club, a shocking decision.

Only one bad kick? What game were you watching? Foley ended up with 64% efficentcy Wich means if he only had ONE bad kick then he only got three for the game! He had 10 or a dozen bad disposals witch equated to him turning it over nearly everytime he went near it!!!!

I respect ur posting but i must comment on the Foley observation.
He's ALWAYS butchered the ball and i cant understand how it was ignored.
It just proves how easy it is to fool the club into believing you're actually elite.
The entirety of this guys career has been a struggle to be even a good average player.
stuffing butcher and momentum killer of massive proportions

i'd take a cap of speed from the 80s and a Ross Faulkner,for him

Don't think anybody wants to see your naked chest.

30 free kicks to 14. Five goals to zero as a result of free kicks. Richmond players and fans frustrated, and Hardwick making references to the imbalance as much as he can without being sanctioned. Every 50-50 decision going the Eagles way, and a vast array of absolutely inexplicable howlers from the scum in red. Their display an almost carbon copy of the bias we copped in Sydney justy a few short weeks ago.
Welcome to playing interstate. Nothing will ever change, and we will just lay down and cop it again and again. And to make matters worse, we continue to sell our home games interstate.

Farmer should be delisted. He should have never played against the Eagles. His game against the Bullants was nothing special. Poor decision to bring him in .

They didnt miss too many eagle free kicks did they? I think i counted about 4 for the game.
Some howlers.
Nahas run down and tackle of the big fella through the middle paid as a push in the back WTF? :banghead
Jack stops chasing the full back so that when he rushes the behind he is not under any pressure. Eff me Jack was appealing the the ump before he even rushed it, yet the fool still allowed it. (BTW smart play by jack, not his fault the ump was dropped on his head at birth) :banghead.
In any other managerial position in the world the incompetence would have seen that fat fool geishan sacked a long time ago.
He must swallow
-
I dont beleive in blaming umpires for losses and although they didn't cost us the game struth.... :banghead :banghead Yesterday was without doubt the worst display of umpiring of the season
I reckon we counted at least 5 goals to the Eagles from dodgy frees
The Nahas "push int he back" = WTF
50 metres against McGuane for what - he stepped left then he stepped right but he at no stage went over the mark = WFT
The Farmer deliberate "out of bounds" simply was a crowd free - nothing more nothing less
A pitiful effort by the umpires :banghead :banghead
As for Foley as vice captain his lack of leadership when Rance literally handed the ball to the an Eagles player int he final qtr was nothing short of disgraceful.
To see Foely just jog past him and not even acknowledge the kid was woeful.
Criticise MCGuane all you want but who was the first player who went up to Alex and gave him a pat on the back? It was McGuane and then who was the 2nd? Deledio - geesh people are critical of Deledio's leadership but yesterday he and Luke had it in spades over Foley yesterday
-
actually i thought it was the eagles bloke who was the first to go to rance.
The prick gave him a pat on the shoulder and said "thanks mate"

I was referring to his own team mates al
and you are right and Foley saw it and did nothing - terrible leadership IMHO

good call WP. I also saw lids go to McGuane at quarter time and give him a pat after McGuane stuffed up just before qtr time

Foley must be dropped simply becuse he aint a half decent player and regardless of his pathetic leadership

Gieschen also said that the standard of umpiring, whilst "really good" for much of round 20, was below the level expected in Saturday night's Essendon versus Sydney clash, and in West Coast's win over Richmond on Sunday.
"In every game we know there are going to be a few decisions (that the umpires get wrong), but in a couple of games we found a few more errors than we would've liked," he said.

HAHA Getting Gieschen to concede even this piteously weak confession is akin to getting blood from a stone.
-
In the video in the above link wayne posted, Geisch said the Nahas tackle on Mitch Brown should have been called "play on". Nahas didn't push Brown in the back and Brown got his foot to the ball.

Would love to know what "a few more than we would've liked" actually equates to in numbers
Would guess at least 10 (and I am being conservative btw) ;D
-
Seriously, that's not good enough.
The umpire association is the governing law if the actual game.
Screwing up week in, week out is the equivalent of cops arresting the wrong member of society.
The game clearly can no longer be mediated by the human eye.
It's ego and a traditionalist outlook that is in the way of progressing to the introduction of the cam red.
Furthermore, Gieschen should be fired.
As a man in charge- he fails....again!

Yeah where the stuff did he get that from? He can't help himself, has to have a 2 way bet and try and take the edge off of the obviously corrupt decision. Does he think he is a stuffing Jedi or something...waves his hand and we all see what he wants us to? Mind you he is as ugly as yoda.
-
not as smart as yoda though. he reminds me more of jabba the hut .
are you a jedi knight, owl?

Actually, Andrew Dimwittiou and Eddie McGuire both remind me more of Jabba the Hut. More chins than a Chinese phonebook...
