The Blues rule invoked there.....but SPS was feeble in the contest......went to ground way too early.

Terrible game to watch, regardless of who you support.

Stop being so sensible.

Still trying to work out how a 100 metre penalty on a ground that’s 180 metres long doesn’t take you well inside the forward 50 :roll:

3 centre clearances for the game to 12. :?
If we can turn that around and start to win it out of the middle, we can get this deficit.

The Dogs only have 11 players from their 2016 team playing.

On another note, how is it that the umpires will allow a mark (15 metres) when the ball travels less than one cut portion of the field and then two minutes later let a player run more than one complete cut section of the ground without bouncing it?

Can someone tell me what the point of SPS is? if he can't win the ball more than 12 times a game, can't ice shots from 20m, only kicks sideways or backwards

What are we doing with him exactly?


He played better in his first 2 games than now. Gone backwards at 100 miles an hour. Must be dropped.


Few too many players in that category, aren'tthere?

SPS
SOS
Plowman
Weitering

Probably several others I can't think of right now. Sooner or later, questions have to be asked. Doesn't help that we spent the off-season developing a new game plan that was easily picked apart, and now appear to be reverting to a proven tank plan.
