[shinboner magic]

Where’s that guy that said Lmac was top 5 in the bnf.

Must of meant the reverse bnf

He is absolutely shitting on the jumper. Id sub him at half time to make a statement. Could be in the brownlow votes for the crows

Pay. Him. Out.

 

[RossHenshaw]

Don’t u love it when the ****wit tilts the head back like he’s really trying …
He is a flog ,
heck him off please ?!!
He’s an imposter of a footballer ?!
A disgrace to wear our number 11 & do the coin toss ?!!
Luke - you are shit

 

[RossHenshaw]

The difference of us being in the game vs us having this tool in our team

 

[nelroo]

He is really battling. Tries to find a body when the ball is there to be won, runs around like a headless chook, sloppy piss weak handballs that look like he has never played the game before. We need to make a decision with him ..

 

[Caracas]

Luke, you’re 28. You should be st the peak of your powers. You must know in your heart of hearts that you are letting the team you love down. Make this second half the beginning of something more decent. Otherwise, please step aside.

He is the Scott Muller of the AFL.

 

[Sillygit]

we have two captains, he can play 2's

 

[BRider]

He needs to go he has cost us at least 4 goals - just has no idea. Game has already gone past him.

 

[Cyber_punk]

2026 is a long way off.

He could go down as the worst 200-250 game player ever, and could also end up playing more games for us than Carey did

 

[The Dougster]

A couple of terrible executions of the handball added to some horrendous decision making in that first half. Needs a big half or he might be in the two’s

 

[Caracas]

Dumb idea - Trial McDonald forward? Could be decent pressure wise and a decent shot for goal in theory. Might be a good refresher for him given he's played dour defensive roles for his career barring an occasional spell on the wing.

I’m convinced he’d be good in the engine room. He needs to be able to make his attack on the ball his only focus.

Yep ,,
I reckon he’s just pipped Shaun Atley now

 

[shimaburnsgrieg]

If he was a true leader he would come clean with the club and ask to be dropped.

He looks like a suburban player way out of his depth at this level.

 

[Sillygit]

in fact i'd say that it's the next indication of seriousness of the list assessment is dropping him to the 2's, much like turner, cunners, etc.

Caracas …

 

[Chadwiko]

At what point do we acknowledge that Luke has had a thoroughly poor first three games?

Not quoting myself in any sort of self-horn-tooting I promise, but instead I'm just pointing out;

This post was from April 1st. He's been poor all year.

What is it going to take for accountability from the selectors and finally drop him? He is actively hurting us.

I would genuinely rather see Aaron Hall get his spot in the 22.

He's got no vision with ball in hand. Tunnel vision. Not ideal for a mid.

 

[Ocha905]

I'm bullish on our future but this has been our worst quarter in months.

Have to agree. This is just woeful - very few positives.

 

[FlyHigh18]

Even the AFLs Twitter geek knows where the problem is

 

[scottywiper]

Symptomatic of the issues at the club

Obviously before todays unacceptable effort…
