When a side is not very good the 50:50 ones always seem to go against them. We are a poor side. Get used to it.

Our young kids are stuffed.

The break will do them good.

They give the square ups when we're 10 goals down in the last

Lack of tackling and intent at the ball. Kreuzer has dominated the buyouts so far.

2nd to the footy, poor skills, bad decisions and lack of awareness is why we're 4 goals down. Umps add 1 more to make it 5.

Two frees for players being dumb. Why throw someone to ground when the ball is dead?

Getting brutalised by the umps again.

Weitering's had a shocker.

3rd week in a row, we've been dominated out of the centre. Obviously it's broader than just Kreuzer, but his inability to compete at centre clearances is a real problem. I love his contesting at ground level, and his possessions, but if we're going to leak goals and territory then it's probably time to go back to Phillips as our number 1.

Cuningham's done some nice things.

Graham seems to be spending more time in the centre square than usual.

Agree - i promised myself not to write about the maggotts but after that display FMD how can i resist. Pathetic is too weak a word for these tirds.

18 to 7 hit outs to us....

Ruck contests are soooo over-rated

Thomson dropped the ball !!!

This game is also further proof that until we beef up our midfield, we're not going anywhere in a hurry.

(In my current emotional state I don't care what it would cost to get Kelly, Hopper and Kennedy - Just do it!)

Phillips is shit. Kreuzer is way in from in the hitout count today.

6 goals from clearances already. Any chance we could apply some defensive pressure and lay a tackle or 2, even if we can't actually win the ball?

And i am tired of senior players like gibbs running past casboult for cheap kicks then butchering it...cost a goal.... how many errors by senior players eg also murphy cost goals?

Unless you can palm a ball like like Nicholls and Farmer they are very overrated.

My nanna would put on more pressure out of our forward line .....

This is so hard to watch

We kicked an arsey one.

100 point yawn fest coming up IMHO. Why no free against Norf guy then, he took them on got caught spun around etc...play on ?? But Cripps gets pinged in 2 secs for "dragging it in..."
