Mids got smashed all day. Hard to defend that but we were pathetic in defense as well. Worst performance for the year and only a few players to walk off the ground with a pass. Hope we have someone back next game- anyone will do but not that spud Cumberland :shh

Well he doesn't need the money as he's living rent free in your head - and very spacious accommodation it is too.... :shh :shh

Just getting in before you mention him as an inclusion.

Yeah but we can't have poor body language from someone whose surname isn't Richardson or Riewoldt or anyone undermining our brilliant defensive structures that've been working so well..... :shh

Enough with feud  :banghead

We get you don't like one another but enough with bringing your feud onto the forum in what seems like every 2nd thread.

I'm not the one potting a reserves player in the seniors match day thread where said seniors just got belted by the worst team in the comp. #baitingmuch? :shh

Wondering what everyone's take on the coaching by Yze in this game. I was there and not many pegs seemed to shuffled from what I could tell.
Young and miller both were being well beaten by opponents into the third and waterman had the ball on a string.....surely a few switcheroos or plan change was in order?

I don't know how you can blame the defence at times we lost it in the middle ball kept on coming back add to that the turnovers by the same senior players.

..and there were plenty of moves he could've made in the guts too...Pickett, both Riolis , Sonsie all could've at least attended a few centre bounces...even Lefau......looked like Baker was on Reid for most of the game which was a ludicrous match up..... :propeller

I honestly thought Lefau was terrific. 3.2 in his 4th game is brilliant.

Even though we got the fast start , to use an analogy , we were a house of cards .

Tim Kelly and Elliot Yeo must of thought Christmas had come early lining up on Dow and Mcaufliffe

I’m glad it wasn’t a total capitulation because this had 10 goal loss written all over it in the third quarter.

We were never ever going to win this once we lost Ross and TT during the week.

Major list overhaul required. Expect it to happen over 2-3 years though. Need a KPD and a KPF and midfield power… so yeah we are in strife.

YOUNG is soft and poos himself under pressure. All those thinking Grimes can retire are kidding themselves

Young is crap but Grimes can barely move anymore...send Kosi back and end the Balta forward farce when he returns...grab El Nour in the msd or even Brindley....hell Nankervis is a better KPD option than most of our current regulars - certainly a better KPD than he is a ruckman these days.... :shh
