Good luck Blueboys.

Until each team plays each other the same number of times, the AFL, as a fair dinkum competition, cannot be taken seriously.

He (Mr Swann) said the honour and pride associated with the club's traditional navy blue jumper was priceless.

A Must Win- almost like a finals Game....

With a tough run home, this is a Must Win to keep out finals hope alive

Now will Dow be played.

Pittonet must come in even if underdone.

Big case for Kemp to replace Plowman.

Hayes I would give another chance. First game in how many years? How many was LOB gifted.

We’re lucky st kilda and Richmond lost or finals could be looking very shaky. Have to beat GWS and Adelaide if we’re half serious

Setters in for Hayes.
Gov for Plow.
Pitto back in but in terms of team balance not sure who for.
Josh Kelly will miss for them

Felt tonight was a dress rehearsal for the big stuff and we failed miserably.

Didn’t handle their heat and pressure. So fumbly and unsure with extremely poor skill execution to say the least.

Couldn’t stick a tackle to save ourselves. Tonight we were soft. So so soft. Not just our ‘bottom six’ either.

If tonight was an indication of who we can rely upon IF we make finals, we have a long, long way to go.

Very, very flat.

_________________
We are on our way back...

Hayes will get rubbed out for that tackle
Plowman for Gov

In Pitto & Gov
Out Plow and Hayes

Out Hayes suspended or omitted Cottrell or Newnes Setterfield and OBrien as wingman next week

Don’t feel too bad for too long.
They are a top flight, battle hardened team. I would love to have won but it is also good for the longer term that we get a deep sense of how hard it is so that when we get there, we stay there more like Richmond and I suspect Melbourne, than the Bulldogs for whom it came too quickly.
Voss will take a heap out of that game both re players and strategy that should hold us in good stead for the finals this year, and beyond.
We really need to beat GWS & Adelaide and hopefully we can win one of Bris or Melbourne and then should spoil the Pies party in the final round before playing against them again, or Richmond or Sydney in an elimination final.

I thought Plow was alright. He might make way for Gov but he was far from our worst. Took the game on a few times early on.

Yeah but whatabout your whataboutism.

Owies these clowns a few, so would really like a strong performance. I am hoping they'll take something away from the game last night

Bring Owies in then

Newnes Hayes Newman are all droppable after that performance. All butchered the ball and critical stages.

Gov is an upgrade on Plow.

Cottrell has improved and is using the ball better but still didn’t really impact the game.

Durdin could possibly do with a spell. 11 touches at 33% and 0 tackles. Needs a reminder that consistency is required to remain in the team.

Gov, Martin, Owies, Pittonet could all be in line for selection. Setters, LOB Dow should be considered. Williams will replace one of the bottom 6 in a few weeks. I wish we had Cuningham available to slot in on a wing

_________________

O'Brien for Hayes should be a given.
Plowman for Gov. If it weren't at Marvel, I'd probably drop Newman instead.
Rest Kennedy and JSOS for Martin and Pitto

Would like to get Owies back in. Think you either play Motlop as the sub or do you make bigger structural changes with Cottrell and Newnes who were both poor.

If we keep this up we beat GWS, Brisbane and Collingwood. I'll take that.

Wasn’t Cottrell tagging Smith? I thought he did a good job?

I thought Newness was pretty flaky too.

Hayes and Docherty will probably both be suspended for dangerous tackle and choosing to bump the head instead of tackling respectively.

TDK’s shoulder also looked sore.

I’d look at bringing in Guv and Pittonet for two of these three depending how the tribunal and injuries turn out.

Owies should return via vfl.

I think people are harsh on Hayes. First full game for club against top side. He had a crack. The guy has played 13 games. That’s it. Needs to be judged on more games

Heading towards finals we need to get Newman Newnes Plowman out and names like Pittonet McGovern Williams Marchbank Owies Boyd into the side

I see last night as a massive learning experience. How we bounce back over next month will tell us a lot

Should be renamed the Carlton Goldfish...can't learn from our losses for more than 1 week
