Griffin was 'injured'. It's not a question of whether he was always going to play or not, it wasnt a late swap for team balance/structure etc

I just hope we never see the situation where players get 'injured' all the time and late swaps occur before every game.

hardwick is a sook

how about he coach a team to beat the press ffs and instruct maric to drive his knees in the giraffes chest

Dead right, yep we were dealt a crappy hand but geez he did not respond very well and neither did the players.

Hardwick has a legitimate case! The Giant freak wasn't named even as an emergency. He killed us in he ruck, gave them first use of the ball enabling them to set up othe rebound. Anyone who thinks Sandilands wasn't the difference in this game is kidding themselves!  Freo should be fined thousands, they clearly breached the rules.
Who cares who plays. Wheres plan b or plan c?  How about admitting you were out coached?
Rediculous complaint.

Agree with this 100% if we can't beat them with him in the side then we aren't good enough
Who cares we lost it exposed anther weakness that is a back up ruckmen
The real issue is that birthday boy missed is we lacked big men
A good coach would now be looking at our deficiencies and in efficiencies and building a more competitive list for 2013
Hardwick has been three years into the system and he is still behaving  immature
We had more worries than sandilands yesterday

Sandilands was injured in first 5 mins last game and Griffin took over and beat Maric last time. So Griffin did not play this game and Sandilands  beat MAric yesterday.

Fact of the matter is that HArdwick had plans for both ruckman and neither worked. Should have gone into the game with 2 rucks to really worked over Sandilands or Griffin.

Hardwick made the error in planning/coaching.

Which second ruckman should we have brought into the game? Gus, Browne? Neither are in career best form.
Griff going down hurts a bit.

We could have brought in Browne. He's big too.

Just being big doesnt cut it for me. We have one ruck at the club worthy of senior football and thats all. Thats is why big Ivan is looking tired.
