What an assist! 
Fu*k Sean Murphy for ruining the club and forcing us to watch Laverde play 3/4 of a season.
He personally cost us 5 goals on Sat.
Shocking, shocking footballerβ¦

Hey Siri, show me the perfect example of Essington.
Lav is an easy target. For 3 quarters I watched a team hit targets, pressure the ball carrier and tackle with intent. We get to the last quarter and it was a training drill. Easy to have a go at the undersized defender, but the problems were further up the ground.

Sums up our year
The last was unexceptable imo we had the week off should have been able to run out the game
Yeah I donβt think the LAV bashing is fair. Makes it pretty hard when you have your 5th in line guy playing key back. Tries hard as he always has, he is what he is.
One of the biggest issues we have list wise is we have McKay, Ridley, Reid and Hayes which is a really good group of KPDs based on skill and potential but we canβt rely on 3 of them and Hayes has played 1 game. Iβm really not sure how we address that and it clouds what we do from a draft/trade perspective.

Laverde was a little unlucky against King. The first free he gave away was soft and marginal. King gave him a much larger push in the back but took a mark so he wasnβt penalised, got his second. Kingβs third goal came from a lazy defensive effort out near the boundary, and he was caught betwixt and between for King to mark in space for his fourth goal. Jayden is not a KPD but is asked to be playing one. He doesnβt have the size, strength or smarts to match the current crop of big forwards running around.

Considering he has been up against it the last 6 weeks he has held his own. He was Consigned to the VFL all year tbf, but due to all the injuries heβs come in and tried his heart out. Having said that at the end of the year we have to move him on.

If only we had all our KPs back in McKay, Ridley & Reid & serve up what we did against North Melbourne this yearβ¦ weβd be a real contender
At worst if we keep him it will be as depth will play in the vfl next year unless injuries struck

This is BS.
Yes he plays undersized, but the vast majority of the goals he concedes are nothing to do with him being too small, but rather complete brain fades.
E.g. The Sunβs goal in the first half where he completely missed a free spoil, has nothing to do with him being undersized and just kills our momentum.
He makes howling mistakes week after week and gets so much love on here.

How much of that is due to Goldy needing a nanna-nap at 3/4 time?
Does he though?
Fixed.
