Problems with defensive structure is overrated. Defence is always going to come under pressure when we don't control the football and butcher it. If we lose clearances as we have then it will ping into our forward 50 with one or two disposals. What is defensive transitioning going to do exactly. Getting hands on the ball and executing to AFL standards and winning one on one contests more often than not along with scoring heavily from turnovers is what is going to stop supply and win games. The way we set behind the ball is more important than defensive transitioning.

It’s all starting to feel like previous coach culls…..not smelling great

There is no evidence he cant motivate. Even last night after being beaten up in the middle the team fought back to come within two goals with 15 minutes remaining in the last. Showed good fighting spirit despite all our flaws.

Just need to accept the fact GWS midfield had superior talent that have been playing together for few years. Thats where we need to get to.

Agree with this.
I was on the Teague Train. And I also did not want Ross Lyon appointed a couple of years ago.
But, over the past couple of months, I’ve been wobbling on Teague.
Last night made a big impression - we just looked dispirited. When we had the ball, we were hesitant, made bad decisions and poor execution which then increased the frustration among the players. When they had the ball, they did what the pleased incl more than once Josh Kelly with no-one near him.
And now, I try to imagine how this team would look with someone like Ross Lyon in charge: No passengers, everyone knows the plan, everyone knows their role, everyone fit, committed and skilled up to deliver.
Anyone who doesn’t fit that bill would not be in the team.

Teague has been in the job for as long as Matthew Nicks at Adelaide.

We were destined wooden spooners in 2019 and they were wooden spooners in 2020

If anyone cant see the improvement from 2019 to now then woe is me. Many things need to be worked on and improved and that's a given from a wooden spoon team thats low on morale and self belief.

We have a fantastic core of up and coming players and need everyone working collectively to get the club out of this mess on field. That's the challenge not sacking people due to perceptions.

You aren't helping yourself. Anyone that can't see one team working hard for each other and understanding the game plan vs one that jogs and points is beyond help

We have regressed. Significantly.

Since 2019 - I think you have forgotten what 2019 was like. Unless you enjoyed the regular 10-15 goal thumpings.

2019 results are shown in the attachment.

Drop the hammer.

Bit harsh.

I've made shit posts for years but now you want action?

Watch out or the Hammerites will come for you.

What do you expect from nuffites? We talk football they don't like your angle so they want to quieten you down until the forum narrative is singular and in unison.
