What a joyless experience that was.

Where is that turkey who's already written off Mckay.

That'd be me! Are you suggesting he is the saviour? How about he get a handful at vfl level before he can be expected to provide any value at AFL level!!!

After today - Wright for next captain. Can operate under pressure. Doesn't make errors under pressure. Always good disposal. Capable of crunch time goals. Has game nous. Well respected by "the boys".

Couldn't agree more...a footballers footballer! Not for captain though! Would contribute in any team at any level in any era!

Should've played earlier in the year when he was playing well and crashing pack. Right now the whole NBs can't get aa handful so he has no hope. We put him in the ruck in the 2nd half so he wouldn't freeze to death up forward yesterday.

Pros
Charlie
Fish
Byrne did some good things
Kruezer gives his all
LJ good still
Wright is quality
Lamb can play
Cons
Too many players not up to it - Buckley, Sumner, Graham for starters
That kick for goal by Levi
Too much left to too few.

Don't think McKay has been written off by anyone here. He just isn't producing enough to get the nod ATM.

I thought that was our worst game for the year which I probably should have expected with the side we had out there.

:lol:

In your dreams maybe. Harry has been average all season and hasn't deserved a call up.
It was good to see him get a run in the ruck yesterday. Perhaps that will give him an additional opportunity to step up.

Leadership is a massive concern.

Time for some changes next year.
