Now that the pressure is off, the goal kicking suddenly gets better.

I'm not advocating sakcing Bolton, but he needs help, without a doubt.

Strategy means jack shit if you don't have enough players who can win a clearance.

Why oh why isn't Jones playing on Hipwood? We have one fast defender. They have one fast (and dangerous) forward. Not hard to work it out.


I don't believe we are tanking but that would be the most obvious answer to your question.

It must be incredibly deflating for the players. You dominate play and still end up behind. And then the opposition get on top and you're helpless to do anything about it. Obviously the players bear some responsibility. But the coach-drive game style has been a huge factor.

I don't know what's happened this year. But from the outside it's been perplexing to say the least. There's losing. And there's it looks like no one out there knows what they're doing. Way too often this year it's looked like the latter.


Agreed. There's no doubt we're playing worse than the sum of our parts at the moment. A mixture of poor positioning, poor decision making, fumbling and horrible disposal, being outrun and outmuscled leaves you wondering what it will take to turn it around.

I wouldn't have a clue if that statement is right or wrong but unless you attend training (maybe you do) then I don't know how you can say that?


Easy, by watching the bloody game. That's where you tell.

Hardly seen Jones today. Have Brisbane been running him out of defence or something?

Rowe is filling the O'Shea role.
