GAME DAY Tigers V Lions

I hope we don't sack Dimma. I just hope he walks. I hope that time is soon. We need a bit of a reset.

I know this post was made in zest, but i think there's a whole lot of truth in this post. There is no coincidence that the start of our rot (end of 2020) has coincided with the end of mr and mrs hardwick. The fish rots from the head, and I thoroughly believe the downfall of this dynasty was largely due to this.

This (once) great side i reckon had another 2 flags in it.
Doubt it, our stars have all got too old, too slow, too injured, no sharpness, no incentive to play hard bc nothing to play for. Plus too many 2nds players and more importantly...without Dusty.
 
Stack should have been in today but obviously his papers are stamped. We can confidently put a line through Ross. He aint making it. Shai started 2 centre bounces and won both clearances. Dimma just refuses to give him maximum midfield time.
Kmac has given as much as he could/will. He needs to be moved on.
Prestia is not a leading midfielder. Hes not your no 1 and is suffering due to been asked to play it.
Short just seems mentally shot.
Nank is not a no 1 ruckman anymore.
Move Miller to the fwd line and Noah back. Dimma is just clueless and his loss of assistants is now showing him up. Was never a good match day coach.

I wouldn't put my house on that Pandaboy.
 
Can't blame Hardwick for missing basic shots at goal but having their half back Coleman roaming free racking up possessions at almost 100% efficiency is something the coach should address ASAP. It's out of control

It continues to be a clearance/stoppage issue - not only do we never win them, today the Lions have been allowed too many clean clearances. No defence can stop that (albeit there’s been a lack of defensive intensity today too).

I noticed that in the first 2 mins.

No run. We have forgotten how to run in waves and link up by hand. This is what we did in the Geelong come back but it's gone since.

3 flags says he's too bad at the match day coaching. And don't give me that Focus on Footy bulldust that all success is down to assistants and all failure is down to Dimma, that is just nutcase whackyland stupidsville.

agree with most of this, but the comment on Shai. I dont think he has the tank to play midfield full time. I believe he said something of that kind in an interview once that he needs to rest up fwd for that reason. As much as wed love him to get more time in the guts, i dont think he's built for it.
