Really disappointing last quarter.

We are not good enough to lift the pedal off the accelerator.

Hampson injury soured it even more. At least we have Maric as a back up. On the Adelaide Oval he will be useful.

I went. I'll reluctantly indulge.  Now that i am rewarmed.

It was an inconsistent effort across 4Q. Brisbane looked like a side that was learning. We looked like a side that tried and succeeded at times but on the whole didn't know what it was doing. But should know better.

First off it was effing cold. And i dispute the 28,888 odd crowd as closer to 22,222.

I thought the game panned out as i expected.

We overpossessed - check.
We under tackled - check.
We line- balled centre clearances - checkity pretty much check.

We piled on goals at times then went to sleep.

Basically our ladder position befits our reality.

I'll be honest - martin was superior if not an almost 4q effort. Add to that, NOW LISTEN, MENADUE was AMAZING. I really think we have found some one here. This guy runs his arse off, links up and even physically heckles players where they are hassling our big bodies.

'OUTSIDE BOSS' im calling it.

Now for the others.

Hunt is an absolute liability.

Vickery is an absolute head case.  Looked like a guy who knows hes going to be moved on. Take that to the bank.

Riewoldt looked injured. Lost a but leg of speed and spring. Tbh so did Deledio.

I think Asbury looked a lot more nimble and spritely. Wouldnt suprise me if he is now injury free. One to watch iver the next 2-3 months.

Vlastuin showed a few tricks id like to see more of. Grimes was very solid. Valuable.

Hammer was ok but injured again theres a suprise. Blouse.

Lambert a liability.

Miles was reasonable.

Lloyd is a hot and cold douche.

Broads debut was promising. The kid has height and looks like a very good kick. He also looks adept enough to weve through traffic as evident on a couple of occasions. A little underpaced but thinks quick.

Townsend was kinda MIA. Just doesnt do enough beyond blocking, tackling and the odd link up.

Really think Townsend read too much of his own press in the off season, needs to start focusing on getting the ball rather than trying to rough up opponents. To me he has the ability but he is simply in the completely wrong mindset. Basically will become a liability as he will be either off the ground under the blood rule or permanently on report for unduly rough play.

From what i have seen of him he is simply making up numbers without having any impact but then i suppose a number of players currently in the side fall under the same banner.

Did he use his speed though?

I disagree. I estimated 27,000 from where I was sitting.  There were a lot of tiger supporters at the game. It was bloody cold though!
