And not sure about jacko..he gives us so much grunt and competitive effort around the ground,but his disposal is so awful that it really costs us....Do we drop him because of this or do we keep him because he gives so much in other areas?????

I am sick to absolute death of Jackson. I don't care how much so-called grunt and competitive effort he gives us. His poor decision-making, clumsiness, lack of awareness and consistent inability to hit a teammate by hand or foot, week in week out, make him a liability. Smart bloke (allegedly) but just a dumb, dumb footballer. His glaring errors last night included, falling into Mayne's back, and attempting to centre the ball after a mark at CHF only to kick to two Freo players, who rushed the ball away for a goal. And when Ballantyne kicked the winning goal, three guesses who it was it that shovelled the ball out to the open side of the goalsquare to allow the Freo players to run onto it en masse. If Dimma thinks that he's been our most effective player this year (as he stated coming into the Collingwood match, where Jacko put in another one of his insipid, ball-butchering performances) then he is seriously, seriously deluding himself. He would be the first player I'd offload at season's end. Should have been done years ago.

REPORTED for abusing our best player

Why Grigg was loitering out back covering no-one is a different matter.

Because that's what he always does, those helicopter kicks need space to launch

Good effort by our boys tonight. Stuck at it all night.
It hurts now but I recon it might hurt even more come the end of the year.
Time will tell. Need to have a win next week to get back on track.
Then win the Port game and most would agree that at 5-2 is probably better than most would have had us.
Some work to do though, especially our half forwardline.. Non exsistant tonight.
Night all....

I think we can beat the cats BT. I said it a few weeks ago. I just think we are due to beat them and they are due for a loss.

Big open spaces of the G, hopefully Chapman is still out with that hamstring.

I'm more confident if beating the cats than if beating Freo tonight.

get off the pot

the cats will thump us   

stop dreaming

Gee we play some dumb football.the amount of times they switched play with us not responding was just amazing.
i think they were able to switch play at will because we didnt have our attack dog(kingy) in to harass and force mistakes on our forward line
I thought Nahas was poor when he came on ,didnt give us much of a lift at all.i would think his days are numbered
And not sure about jacko..he gives us so much grunt and competitive effort around the ground,but his disposal is so awful that it really costs us....Do we drop him because of this or do we keep him because he gives so much in other areas?????
i thought the INS were ordinary G, Helbig reminded of f f f f farmer...not up to the senior football, Nahas struggled to get into the game, eh s generally better than that...Batchelor was fairly quiet, not sure what job he had. for mine Jacko was fair way down my list of concerns, would have preferred Jack didnt allow his opponent to take 10 marks and rebound so effectivley, why the bleedin heck Lids wasnt taken to FF and jack either to the wing or off the ground amazes me coz the setup just played into freos hands all night...we played 50 minutes of good footy and lost by a point...plenty of work to do in review, glad we re back  at the G next week,  :shh

Agreed Bo moving Lids to FF seemed the logical thing to do,and maybe even push jack up the ground .
Bo I reckon we play helbig out of position .he is an out and out midfielder in my opinion,not a tagger or backman.

Crunchtime on SEN 1116 just played an audio snippet of dimmas press conference and Anthony Hudson from crunchtime had said that a release from Mark Evans/AFL had been released and stated that the matty white goal SHOULD have been a goal review scenario....

Don't like making a habit of criticising umpires but I I was confused last night in relation to the holding the ball rule. We seem to do the right thing and kept the ball under a tackled player however on numerous occasions they just collapsed themselves as soon as they felt impact and received free kicks for in the back. In the last quarter I counted at least 3 soft frees for the same thing. The problem is that next week we will attempt the same thing and it will go the other way.

In this case the umps have no feel for the game and are dumbarses for continually paying this free. Its so obvious when a player just collapses fwd as soon as they feel contact. Actually 2 of our players who are really good at stopping this are Conca and Morris, Ive seen both on a few occassions this season tackle and fall sideways bringing the collapsing player to ground with them thus not giving away the soft frees. Some of our other players are little slower in catching on and continue to be fooled by their opponents. Any surprise Edwards and jackson both got done for it last night?  :rollin

in most cases the umps dont have a feel for game, and there in lies a big part of the problem....besides the always tinkering with the rules.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
