That was a tough watch after quarter time. Only a practice match but geez we were a rabble. We looked cooked after the first 20-25 minutes. Lack of workrate, no system, continually isolated and outnumbered across the park, and we didn't protect the defensive side of contests and stoppages. We were slow in the midfield and were often caught ballwatching. Our "tackling" made a mockery of the articles saying we had been focusing on it at training this preseason. When we did get it forward, we often just bombed in hope. Pretty disappointing day even by practice match standards.

Grlj the main positive to get excited about. He'll become a weapon by foot once we become a good side.
Cumming took time to get into the game but stood out in the last after being moved into the centre.

Agreed. What exactly were we practicing? I don’t rate Yze at all as a coach and this is exactly why. Great at relationships and a good communicator but we have nothing to hide here so that is where we are at.
I guess we could be norf

Hopper Taranto and ross dominate attendances in 2nd Q and we get smashed… think we all knew this already though.

Noticed that too from the stats. Definitely no coincidence that we didn't control the ball with those 3 in the middle.
I think we will have a good year in terms of development and player progression. With that said, we seem to have neglected the ruck this far. I know it's a scratch match and you really can't take much into it, but nank was beaten by a nobody....hopefully not signs to come.
Anyways bring on 2026.  :gotigers

Apart from a great mark thought Lalor was pretty quiet.  Getting a lot of positive hype but thought Cumming & Grjl much more impressive on the day. 
Faull was off today, got his hands to a few but couldn't hold his marks.  Armstrong much better.
