Balme was the only one call the them out and now is in a advisor tole for the lady's side and dnd of year his gone the best footy administrator and he wanted to go on.

Just a slight correction

He is a senior advisor across all facets of the Club.

Yes he has taken a special interest in our women's program but to suggest that’s all his role is now is wrong

When was the last time we have kicked 5, 6, 6 and 6 goals from our past 4 matches?

When was the last time we had lost by 91 and 119 points for two weeks in a row?

Next week, if we lose by 90-100 points, what will happen? We just accept that?

What did Yze say in his post press-conference?

He said on Thursday, “we want to make it difficult for Brisbane.”

First 12 goals of the match makes it very difficult for them.

About 10 goals from within 20 metres.

I want him to take aim at our senior players expect Vlastuin, Rioli and somewhat Prestia.

11 Premiership players in the team shouldn’t be losing by 210 points in 2 weeks.

2 Premiership players had over 20 touches tonight. 2.

Dustin Martin, Legend. Immortal. Still on $1.2m.

I just watched the highlights from afl.com.

Jayden Short should not be playing in defence again. He had 3 goals kicked on him, in the first 30 minutes of the match and probably more that wasn’t shown.

Young, send back to VFL.

Our defence don’t actually defend.

Again, having no 2 talls in the forward line gives us nothing around the ground.

Why would you want to watch us at the ground when we are averaging 6 goals a match and concede 20 goals?

This is what you really call, Rock Bottom and THROUGH THICK AND THIN.

Very thin, could be nothing soon.
Great post  :clapping :clapping

Did this bloke finish school? We battled away in the second half?

He is either really stupid or fos or a combination of both.

Also someone should remind him when we lost by 120 points our genuine stars were at a perfect age.

End of the day he took the job now pays a price for our performance. He chose the team and assistants so they all reflect poorly on him

Either change it up or find another job in a few years.

Few points

Some got carried away with the early form and win was always going to get worse with more kids in and senior blokes coasting around and adding injuries. Rebuild no doubt.

Blaming Yze is ridiculous get the best coach in afl now he will struggle the cattle is not there. Needs the preseason clean up the list and football department needs a revamp. Most importantly put the right people next to him invest in the footy department club has been taking the short way out standards dropped we herd covid cuts before what's the exuse now nothing spend in the footy department.This bs Yze rocked the ship over memorabilia what a lousy exuse players agreed and it's in another room move on we're in a new dawn.

Blame our defence all you like it's still our best part of our side. Sinking ship playing in our defence so much ball comes in because midfield and forward line can't compete.

Hit the draft hard and make hard calls whoever is in stays whoever wants our pack your bags.
Balanced post.  :clapping

So true about the defence. We have a substandard on ball division led by a ruckman that continues to play stupid football and do ridiculously stupid things on the field.
Our midfielders are non competitive and although we do win some clearances our ball use is deplorable and below AFL standard.
Without the ball in our hands teams are bringing the ball inside forward 50 pressure free so it's pretty difficult for our defenders to defend especially when they have mids streaming forward and our mids are too exhausted to make the extra effort.

So three things we could've been better at.

1) FITNESS - we look the least fittest team and that's by quarter time. So we are at least 3 quarters behind other teams in terms of fitness.

2) SKILLS - we are atrocious with our basic fundamentals. Few exemptions aside, our team cannot kick or handball even when there is minimal to no pressure. Deplorable.

3) PRESSURE - we are the clearly the worst team in terms of effective pressure. I know Yze loves to see attempts but it would be much nicer if we could actually stop a player for kicking an easy goal from the goal square when we have "tackled" them. It seems that the ability to apply pressure and the ability to tackle (which was our ONE WOOD and used to seperate us from mediocre to greatness) has completely disappeared to nonexistence.

All these things should have been addressed in preseason but clearly the standards have been lowered to allow mediocrity to reign and now it's completely infected pretty much everyone.


A lot to do to get that back.
