Murphy has really warmed to the captaincy.

Not sure there's a better captain in the entire league right now. He's irresistible.

This is going well.
We'll be 0-5 no problems.
Season shot already.
Ratts never had a 0-5 start.
Just saying.

Dominated the clearances 36 to 21.

What does it say about our ability to control the ball and maintain possession?

Our ability to defend when we lose the ball, especially kickouts?

I didn't rate Ratten but he has changed aspects of Ratten's style that DID work.

109 points to 3 qtr time. So much for defence.

Round 3 and only 3 qtr time and the season is already shot.

We are crap. Bottom 6 crap.

Problem is the playing list and lack of development we can see that now.

Did we disproportionately blame Ratts?

This side peaked in 2011.

The difference between us and Melbourne is having a few players who've played above 100 games. Most of which will be gone in 2-3 years, and have negatively contributed to a poor culture amongst the playing group as well as Green, Robertson, et al ever did.

I agree, change isn't always for the best it seems.

Yup.

We're terrible.
Just awful.

Need a good clean out this year. I can name about 10 players who are being paid $000,000's and are not up to it.
