Don't think Maurice Rioli should be in consideration for round one after tonight.  Unsighted.

In fairness to him and the other forwards our forward 50 entries have been shambolic

Mansell, ordinary, Campbell unsighted

I could go on
Yep. All our small forwards have been poor tonight. It would be useful if they knew how to get front and square rather than lost in no man's land.

Basics soundly lacking since halfway through the 2nd qtr

Samson can’t take a mark to save his life.
There can’t still be people who think he will make it ?

I don't think anyone drops more sitters than Samson.

I don't know who is teaching our blokes goalkicking but why do so many of our players hold the ball off-centre?

Rioli bad cramp. He couldn't chase then and he's gone off.

Blight hurt his shoulder but he's stayed on.



Geez we are allergic to goals :facepalm.

It's Feb but for me most disappointing thing was the selection table.

This side should have been filled with new recruits. I appreciate Lalor and Smillie are injured as is Hotten. But it was filled with guys who have been tried and tried again and are just either at their ceiling or not good enough. This shows the issue with our list as it'll take a while to turn over.

Nothing personal but half the team out there today need to be turned over for next era.

Dow
Ross
McIntosh
Ryan
Hopper
Miller
Rioli
Mansell

Nor sure if any other club picks up these guys for free if they had an option.

I heard Mansell is his mentor

Can’t disagree with this. We need virtually a full list turn over

Dow no pressure and misses his free teammate by 5m :facepalm.

Don't know what Kmac saw then either  :huh.
