brave?

By my reckoning, they had seven free kicks for goal.
Had we kicked straight in the last, we win.
MM can use that to save face.
The Irish kid will be a player.
Cripps will be one.
Murphy had 30 possessions but I was surprised to hear that. They weren't telling possessions but good on him for getting his hands on it at least.
Wood did well, which says something about the Essendon** rucking division.
Bell does some good things but that 50 in the last undid most of them.
Docherty will be a player
Armfield should play next week.
Rowe looks out of his depth.
I think Casboult might get dropped. He has so much potential but tonight he was very quiet and didn't seem to spend any real minutes in the forward line.
Walker will be better for the run but he should pay forward.
Yarran won the fight but won't play next week. Chapman has a glass jaw and they exploited the concussion rule to prove they will stoop to everything.

They drive me to distraction.

Always next week.

If any one here thinks Carrazzo, Ellard and Jones aren't the first names on the chopping block, I give up.

Ellard was too slow and played like a frustrated man. Carrazzo was regularly lumbering along like he'd pulled his calf and Jones faded in and out more than a shitty pub DJ.

After that, play a zone structure so we're not so not every turn over is a goal, and so we actually feel like running when we get the ball back...

A more competitive performance.
Cripps played well, but needs to finish in front of the big sticks.
Byrne was great when he came on. Keep playing him.
Armfield gives us plenty. I wasn't sure about his selection, but he gives us genuine speed and attack on the footy and the man with the footy.
Henderson was better. When we have some free flowing movement he looks great.
Wood stepped up after being embarrassed last week.

Our disposal is disappointing, as is our decision making off half back and into the forward 50.
Dominated the clearances but clearly get beaten on the outside and in space.
Missing Yarran next week will hurt and I hope Gibbs doesn't get cited for his bump on Goddard.

Lastly, whilst not a spectacular game, at least Murphy stepped up somewhat.

Murphy, after a slow start, was easily our best.
