Review vs Freo

Our defenders gave up after midfield and forwards gave up, they lowered their head but all defenders first half play good

Poor Gavin Wanganeen either watches Tex play for the worst or second worst side in the comp.

Back 6 aren’t much chop but ■■■■ me even melbourne defence would struggle with the no pressure football up the ground.

We put in a performance like today’s effort and the AFL should take it off us.

Oh great to hear. I need help - but not as much as Essington.

I legitimately don’t understand.

Last year we had a noticeable gameplan that could score very heavily, and restrict teams going the other way. It had complete buy in from the players, and whenever teams tried to stop our plan a, we’d respond with a plan b.

Why did we move away from that? What’s the point of changing gameplans every year? How are we supposed to develop a team when we keep changing gameplans?

I don’t know, and honestly, I don’t give a fark anymore. Weak ■■■■■■. ■■■■ off

Sorry bud. Foursome already booked.

Our defence is just insipid.

What has happened to Ridley?

Nothing. A complete nothing football club.

Let’s weigh this up.

What are we actually good at?

We are slow. But poorly structured.

We are small. But not quick.

We are undisciplined. But not tough.

We don’t have the ball. But we don’t tackle.

We don’t take risky kicks. But still miss targets.

We blaze forward and meander backwards.

All I see is a small, slow, front running, timid team who patted themselves on the back after falling over the line against a bottom 4 interstate team in Melbourne.

At least in the Knights era, you kind of understood what the game plan was trying to do. It had holes all over it but at least it had an identity.

I genuinely don’t know what our system is. I wouldn’t pick it out of a line up of one.

Truck is another in a long line of fraudulent coaches. He is just a bit better at generating social media content but is getting found out very quickly. I look forward to his contract extension.

McGrath had his first tackle halfway through the third, sums it up

Absolutely!!

They would get beaten aswell and easily

You’d hate being a defender at Essendon

I doubt we will win another 5

All Collingwood need to do is apply pressure next week.

That’s it. They will win comfortably if they can do that.

Port will be fine. We won’t.

I actually can’t see us winning another game

Good post and an accurate question posed.

This looks nothing like the gameplan of 2021, that honestly looked like it had us on an upward trajectory.

Port and North will annihilate us.

This is worse than the top up year. At least we had a crack that season.

This is something else.

It’s like we have dumb footballers and we need to go back to basics, and not try to be too tricky with our game plan and tactics. Simplify things. Play footy.

■■■■ me some of them are pretty, but they are clearly not getting it.
