At least we have come up with a replacement for the Hurley long down the right kickout strategy. It’s now Ridley short to the left pocket and then stop the play for 10 seconds.

Sarah Jones made the comment that the fans are getting very angry. She seemed genuinely concerned with the brewing nature. After Freo started belting us things changed and it seemed people just found the whole thing funny. The anger left and what was left was bemused confusion.

Quarters. I can’t see us winning any games like that. What is the game plan? Why don’t we apply forward line pressure? Why don’t we try moving the ball fast? Why are we a slow list lacking any X factor or excitement, apart from Walla who isn’t even out there.
I’m struggling to see any positives. Any at all.

I get frustrated by the lack of willingness to change things up when it’s all going pear shaped. Did Perkins get a run in the middle?
Hobbs was given a 10 min run at the end when it was all over.
I also feel we’ll be lucky to win many more this year.

McGrath is aswell
You’d get a first rounder for him and commence rebuild.
He is only a half back flanker
Yeah - winning is a business
Once again. When players are spotted out of their minds partying during the summer and then perform like this questions need to be raised.
We already knew that anyway I suppose.
Sometimes you play a poor game and things just don’t go right…that’s when effort comes in.
Our back six today had 4…yes 4, FOUR, are you you hearing me??? Four farking tackles between them.
Laverde, Ridfley & Heppell = 0 tackles between them
Kelly and Zerk Thatcher had one each
And Nick Hind was our tackling king with two.
Across the team, 23 players contributed the massive total of 36 Tackles…Freo had 50 whilst winning by eight goals.
So sack as many board members and coaching staff as you want…but the lack of effort is completely on the players…they’re the ones wearing the jumper, they’re the ones getting paid to play, to tackle to give effort.
But you’ll see, it was an anomaly and “one we’ll put behind us”
We’ll bring back Ham and Tex and probably drop Hobbs and rest Perkins.
And nothing will change.

Geez you can count on the usual fwit posters to be up and about after a loss like that.
EDIT: not having a crack at anyone immediately above this post, just the gloomers who turn a bad day into complete misery.

Collingwood aren’t particularly skilled but they pressure. Gang tackle. We will be monstered next week.

Devastating really.
Who put the list together? It’s so unbalanced? But Dodoro is the big red fire engine according to some who know more than me.
I’m not even convinced we nailed the three picks last year.
Coaching is questionable. He appears to have lost the players but surely not, they seemed so tight last year.
This sucks.
