Gibcus is the only positive.

Generally hope we finish bottom four as we need top end talent.

Way too many unskilled players in this team.

Dimma needs to see the writing on the wall.

Learnt nothing new tonight.

We are absolutely miles off comp best, we have to have some significant changes for things to improve. It's clear as day best sides have best defences. Balta has to go back without Grimes for 1. Gotta get some better ball users around the ball.
Go Tigers!

The time for change is here. 
22 point loss but may as well be 122.
That far from Melbourne it's not funny.
I'd expect 4-5 changes next week. 
Parker, Ross, Castagna, Edwards at a minimum.

Ross was one of our better players. Agree on the others.

Out of that lot Ross stays. One of the best for us tonight. Edwards was terrible as was George.

I mean, looked like we played to minimise the lose. Hardwick was crap tonight as should be very disappointed in his performance. Gee doesn't Tarrant look ordinary  :shh
Gibcus and Rioli was fantastic  :clapping

Tarrant stinks so much I would rather play all of Gibcus, Miller and even Biggie.

I would drop him immediately for Miller.

I'm not blaming the kids on this one , but our senior players a few are coasting out there need a rocket and keep getting  games Lynch, George, Kmac , Edwards ,Tarrant ,Graham all missing.

Not clean enough skills poor at times and decision making.

My observations we are slow.  Why do 3 people need to lay a flimsy tackle on one player allowing them to throw/handball/drop it for his suddenly released team mates to swoop on while our guys are still untangling themselves?  It was like watching the Bolshoi ballet with our players taking it in turns to leap past the same Melbourne player with one arm flung out limply.  Those who did stick tackles were immediately rewarded with a free kick against them mind you.  Loose men everywhere.  I want a recount of how many players they had on the ground.
Lots of people name their swords......

Maybe but he's not the future, slow, poor decision maker and shocking kick.  RCD in the same boat just hasn't had a run at it like Jack has.

Ross isn’t even a battler nor is he hard hitting he’s just a meh player that we are wasting our time with

A whole new look needs to happen next week. Lets start with M.Rioli Jnr and Judson Clarke in as our small forwards. Banks comes in as a wingman. Martin comes in. Pickett comes in, Stack comes in as well as Does Grimes if available.


Short Balta Broad
Vlastuin Gibcus D.Rioli
Banks RCD Pickett
Bolton Martin Stack
M.Rioli Lynch Clarke
Soldo Prestia Cotchin
Dow Grimes Baker Ralphsmith.
