Unusual logic;

We cant kick goals, so the MC are useless for not
Picking a bloke who cant kick goals in the 2nds.
LOL. How many goals did Lefau, Kosi and Mansell kick before they got a senior gig? At least we know Cumbo can kick multiple goals in the AFL

MJ, Dow, Baker, Vlastuin, Broad and Young best on for me.

Everyone went quiet in the last quarter which was bad for my multi but expected.

Thought we played well, got the expected result. Dow and Young had season saving performances and can hopefully back it up now with a run of confidence.

Banks played ok, Mansell ok, Brown wasn't as clean as he has been. Plenty of space for McAuliffe to come in given the Hopper injury and just another example of our conditioning team failing to prepare an injury prone player prior to returning.

Plenty to like with some of the efforts with our younger players.

All we can expect at the moment is to be able to celebrate the good qtrs, most games we get 2 per game - typical of where we are at as a team.

24 frees to 12 - how on earth did we hardly get a look in with the umps in the second half - come on club, stand up to this bias, it has to stop.

So where are we. Hopper another month I'd say. I hope McAf has 35. Team skills and ball handling can't get much worse. Dockers next at G.

It has to stop, but it won’t, and there is not one damn thing the club can do about it.

Fair enough.

I think it might be about their relative bottom lip positions?

The strength and conditioning staff need to be all sacked.
Zero run in second halves, multiple injuries and the strange one that blokes are tweaking muscles in legs with other prior injuries.
Like Hopper tweaking a hammy on a dud knee leg.
The numbers are stacking up and it's derailed our season.
Have Geelong's injury list and we would be in the 8.

Best game I've see Ralphsmith play. Still a long way to go but if he can improve on that who knows

Gee would have preferred Samson over Nah-smith. At least Samson can mark and kick a goal.

Lefau and Mansell both offer structural elements to the team that Cumbo does not, which is why they are being picked and he hasn’t been.

And Kosi in theory, but obviously didn’t pan out.

However the biggest issue in the forward line is no talls, so how does another vertically challenged player in our forward line solve that problem?
