How can Bolton and Menadue not be playing in this team.
I think ability and lack of ticker has a lot to do with it in Menadue’s case.


Couldn't be further from the truth but you have your opinion.
He's not short on ability, has a lovely leg and good vision. But he sleeps with the light on, let's be honest about it. He's not on his own.

So he shares a bed with Ellis?

Yes, when it's Brando's turn to stay up with him.

The lads take turns supervising Menadue at night while he has his head unders the covers muttering "I played a great game but they dropped me" over and over...

He was lucky to be given a 1 year contract this year and with about 5 fit players to choose from our entire list, he didn’t get a gig tonight.

His papers are stamped.

Cool story. Not one to bag our players (Except Houli) but Ellis is extremely soft which is a shame as he does have some ability. The Club should definitely move him on at the end of the year.

On social media it's saying he went off with ribs. Not sure how he is though.

Lucky to not have his legs broken due to that sliding tackle that he didn't even get a free from and lead to Geelong's goal right before half-time.

Just got home

Exceptionally disappointing night, terrible performance.

Should have been at a minimum 4 goals up at qtr time.

Too many were MIA after qtr time

Our forward line and midfield look so out of whack.We recruit a monster forward ask him to bring ball to ground  :banghead yet his best attributes in his game is a lead up forward as we seen in the Port game.Play Balta back half don't even bring in another tall.We are to concerned to what we do without the ball now then what we do with it in hand.

We have half our best 22 missing. Of course, there was going to be a tipping point.

We kicked at just 52% efficiency last night. So every second kick missed its target.
