They said on Ch7 last night that the game will at this stage still be played in Sydney this upcoming weekend but they believe both NSW clubs will exit the state to the Qld hubs after their matches.

deja vu once again.

GWS this weeks whipping boy and they will be all fired up to win... Hawks were the same.

GWS txted Sam Edmund on SEN that their netball team is bailing out of NSW but not the footy team. The game this week will be played at Giants Stadium.

Caro said as well as we're doing given our outs, it needs to be tempered given we've only played one side currently in the Eight (Collingwood). So this week against the Giants is a real test

Matthew Lloyd is tipping us to win based on our like-for-like role system.

Astbury ---> Balta
Houli ---> DES
Caddy ---> Kmac (on the wing this week)
Cotchin ---> Bolton
Nank ---> Chol
Edwards ---> Aarts (forward pressure)

Ross Lyon said if GWS can match Richmond with respect to system then they should win on talent available (Greene back this week). However, if Richmond win then it's a system victory.

We stick to our system and our plan like last week ,but go up another level see no issue.Better forward entry's and nail our chances to.Win the ruck battle and cut out there midfield supply will go a long way.Yeah might be everybody pumping up gws , but our boys got Tucky alot played with him.

Would prefer a grubber mongrel ball inside 50 rather than the crap we are dishing up. No system at all, our forward efficiency used to be our strength now its our Achilles heel. Can someone remind the team that the purpose of getting the ball inside 50 is to actually score, not play kick to kick.

Lynch is being gorilla’d by 3 defenders because Riewoldt won’t compete. Might be trying to convert into a crumbling forward in his twilight years.

I’d like to see more from Pickett, Lambert and Graham. Not playing well.

Naish hasn’t done much but it’s his first run so it’s going to be difficult to learn the speed of the game.

Rioli is the biggest disappointment has really done nothing he needs to get involved.

Had all the momentum for a long time not even a goal to show for it and that's the game there.Forward line been issue all year no cohesion with midfield and for all the dominance we don't score.

As disappointing as this loss is I think we all know we could’ve or should’ve won this game.

With all the youngsters as ineffective as they were, Rioli continually doing nothing but still able to play, poor forward entries and Soldo unable to tap to any of his teammates, I think we did ok.

A lot to be dissatisfied with but also there’s is a lot to be pleased with.

Our pressure is getting better.

I’d like to see improved with our ball movement in the forward fifty.

I think Bolton is looking really good.
Rioli has to go. Bring in anyone else.
Soldo needs to go.

I’d like to see more pressure inside 50.
It would be nice to have a proper wingman, someone who can run all day and accumulate and deliver the footy inside 50. We have two marking forwards I don’t know why it’s so hard.
What happened to our inside 50 pressure?
We still have a long way to go to get to where it’s acceptable to watch.

Can't see how Naish was a better option than even an out of form Stack....hell even Markov would've given us more... :shh

...actually think his best chance might be as a small forward but can't see him being played there due to his lack of defensive pressure and doubt it woud even in the coaches minds... :shh :shh

Kick straight and we win the game basically. I'm not saying we played well, but the upside is there. We know we can convert those goals and play better. AND we are finding some players. I thought pickett looked a lot better tonight. Balta is on the right track. Can't forget we are missing 2/3 of our best mids, Prestia and cotch. Disappointing loss, but it's very early still. If we lose that game in 6 games time then we are in trouble.

Problem is you cant really make any wholesale changes as those in reserve just haven't played enough games and will stink it up.  Then we'll all be back next trying to get rid of them.

Oh and also. SO many players still out of form. Rioli is a standout. I have faith he will come good but geez he's been dismal.

He appeared to be a at the back of a lot of contests. A few nothing leads I saw as well. But our fwd50 entrys are completely appalling. No wonder lynch and Jack have had below average years.

Our forward entries haven’t been great but it would be nice to see them take a couple of contested marks from time to time especially lynch since that’s one of his strengths.

Bloody oath ! We have to remember the cattle we have here. Missing cotch, prestia, nank, houli, edwards. Throw in Astbury and caddy as well. I think our young guys are doing a great job. We kick straight and we win. It's a long season folks. The intent and pressure is there, just need some more experience. I'll say I'm really disappointed with riolis year. After rd1 I thought he was going to have a breakout seaaon. As a team we really need stack to lift. We need this players putting pressure on.

When forwards lose confidence in the delivery they'll often start second guessing...and most blokes that size can't just run all day like Richo or Buddy... :shh

Contested marking is why we got him.

Vickery could mark on a stuffing lead.

Adam Cooney said he was more impressed by us than GWS for what it's worth.

Riewoldt is really giving us nothing, he doesn’t seem to have the stamina for second efforts and he doesn’t pressure like he used to, something he was most proud of.

On the other hand, Chol showed that he is capable of applying excellent pressure up forward. Unfortunately his timing when attacking the footy in the air was miles off last night. He was about 5 seconds too early in his leap and not could he judge the drop of the ball, it was painful to watch.

The speedsters need to work harder and I don’t think I’ve seen anyone front and centre all year.

Picketts is nowhere near it atm. Shouldnt be playing seniors. Hes a VFL standard player at present.

Lambert
Riewoldt
Chol
Lynch
Egg

What did you expect from Naish had no match fitness in lead up to the game just jump straight up to afl level dreaming huge difference from vfl,training etc.Graham is a senior player with the outs we got out now needs to step up not once every 2 weeks.

Graham has sooooo many runs on the board for me. His grand final performance in2017 and not to mention him playing with one arm in the prelim against Geelong. I absolutely back him to find form and make an impact. He has earned his yellow sash. Pickett on the other hand had a cruisey day at the office in 2019 and hasn’t shown me he deserves to be in the 22 over the likes of stack, graham etc
