I'll be interested to see how anyone can defend BEllis tonight

Ditto Moore, Butler and Menadue

Maybe we miss Martin, Houli and Prestia more than we realise.

Just really disappointed

Will turn my attention to selection for next week

Some blokes simply cannot and should not play next week

I will start with

Miles
Moore
Mendaue
Grigg


What about
Butler
McIntosh
Higgins
Broad

They were putrid tonight

i missed higgins, he should be on top of the list with grigg

the others deserve another week to get right especially butler.

the ladder flatters us given the teams we have beaten. I think we are no certainties for top 4


You are kind on Butler. Played okay in 2 games this year...drop him would be my call. Rioli back and Stengle needs to be rewarding.

Bellis -surely an AFL record for most peeweak efforts in contests in one match .... :clapping

Was Menadue playing?

Miles - slow useless stat gatherer at this level now....a lamp post would've been more effective at the centre bounces...

Conca .....yep....Conca..... :banghead

Butler - probably would've claimed the soft efforts record if Bellis wasn't playing...

Lambert - it's not stuffing soccer...

McIntosh....a malfunctioning automaton....

Grigg - time to hang 'em up  mate....thanks for your service...

Moore....a step backwards tonight.....

Higgins....back to the twos for you kid....

Nankervis - love ya big fella but easily your worst game for the club....

Broad - becoming a bit of a panic merchant down back lately... :shh

Grigg looked cooked tonight. Higgins looked all at sea. Conca had one of the poorer 20+ possession games I've seen. Kicks the ball like he's shooting a flare in the outer at the A League

grigg went a long way in losing that game for us.

That pathetic effort when we were 2 v 1 in the goal square was the worst decision he has made in 5 years.

he should be dropped solely because of that effort.

I've posted this before but he delivers black hawk down helicopters that make our forwards scatter like Somalian villagers...

So Lambert had the most possessions for us

Perfect example of quantity not meaning much. 26 ordinary possessions
