Must admit I've not watched any games but turned this on for 5 mins. Not sure any coach could do much with the skill level on show except get it and kick it long.  Like the U12s keep the handballing & switch kicks to a minimum.

No one is disputing we have an ordinary list than to recruiter Sheahan. But stupid over-handballing is part of Ferguson's so-called "gameplan". He doesn't realise it puts us under pressure with the ball and causes confusion off the ball with teammates totally out of position as they don't know what to do or where to be.

Another stellar half of footy. Goalless again.

All sense of structure has broken down .

What structure 

We get the ball and have to play happy handball because every player is forward of centre. So there is no one to kick it to

That's on the coach and his game plan. It's made to look worse when the skill level doesn't suit the happy handball game

At least the rain appears to be going around us

Richmond    0.2      0.2-2
North Melb.  1.2     3.5-23


Norf lifted their workrate and pressure and we just turned to a clueless disorganised rabble  .

If we want to stand on Danger objectively, he’s one of the most overrated players in the game.
Has 8 AA’s which is actually laughable.

A brilliant turn of foot, one of his generation’s best marks for his size but gee whiz if I had a dollar for every time he bursts clear from a clearance and blasts the ball out of the full.

Seriously, the man is a turn over merchant. If he was a Tiger player, he’d be our favourite whipping boy…

Yeah and he's a H&A hero too.

Not taking away from his PF performance but using that as an excuse for him still being a gun is silly.

It was a gun performance from a guy with all the brains and skill but his body is mostly past it.
