Finally, in the last 5 minutes, we've seen some players prepared to actually run.

I'm a fan of Bootsma, and had no issues with his selection. But he's had an absolute mare. Waite as well. Given how much footy he's missed, perhaps it would have been better for him to play behind the ball.

How are those 3 tall forwards going?

Getting in each other's way maybe. Until we get a few inside 50s it'll be hard to see if it works.


What a surprise.

One good spoil at the end for Bootsma. Will have to play tall now. Yazz, time to shine, son.

Shit game. Fat bloke yells "Woof!" every time they kick a goal.

Second to the ball, giving dogs too much space, can't tackle, seem slow.

Gonna be a long 2nd half.

Umpiring is shit.

Yeah! especially when it leaves the corridor wide open for the other team to run through.


Must be part of the plan.

Given we are playing as badly is its possible to play we could win this.

Hard to come back when you can't win a clearance. Been smashed all year. Now that Judd can't do it himself anymore they are fkd as no one else goes in to win it

Dogs are actually not that great which makes us look even worse. Although I think Cooney brought his own ball.

Lots of issues but for me it comes back to midfield. We are slow, defensive and don't win enough of our own ball.

Get Gibbs, Murphy, Betts, Gatlett, Tuohy, Judd, Armfield all working through middle and not tagging and we will be back in it.

Don't run hard enough to the contest and away from the contest.
Our biggest problem is we don't work hard two ways.

It's pathetic.

Should be 6-8 goals down. Lets not forget that. Unacceptable, disgraceful.

Bootsma is not AFL standard, never will be
Ditto Rowe. continually takes his man to the contest with Hendo....how about some fwd seperation???
Waite leads to the boundary :screwy: :screwy: :screwy:

WARNOCK...should be standing in a fountain in the middle of London with a flock of Pidgeons shitting all over him. @#$%&! useless

Gibbs...wtf is that haircut??? Bronski Beat and playing like it
Jamo has no flower idea

Murph and Judd running around in circles

Hendo, Cachia and Scotland our only contributers.

Watson is now our no 1 KPD, and our no 2 KPF!!!

We'll lose our next 4 :mad: :mad: :mad:

Centre square setup under Ratten was pretty good (when everyone was fit).

Been a big downer under Malthouse.

Not that either are much chop overall.

Gibbs simply looks like a fool with that haircut. Along with his soft as butter game. Quite a package is our no 1 pick.


His dad was a mate of Sticks. would have been an easy as you like selection, no thought required, just add product and towel dry, voila...a soft cock amongst soft cocks
