Have been meaning to post similar for a couple weeks now. Since the change he's really struggled and has been pinged several times. For whatever reason it's really rattled his game.

That’s my point. They should be held a lot more accountable than Carrol who still finding his way. They have no excuse.
Re Walsh
Umps seem to love pinging him too, you just know they are going to pay the free when he's tackled.

I don't really see anything in Carroll that stands out which could be a strength at AFL level. Seems a good kid, but I don't see what exactly is getting him a game at AFL level.

C’mon Moon, keep at it and string a few more good posts together.
The selectors will eventually take notice of your form and elevate you to the senior list….
I want to see 47 game posts and 3 Essendon disses, and I want to see it several weeks in a row. Also, I want Moon to be more defensive and not be so easily brushed off.

“At least we’re not Essendon”
If that’s the benchmark we may as well hand back our AFL license.
Embarrassing.

Be nice if he learned how to tackle properly.
Gives away a couple of dumb frees every week.
Huge shout out to Charlie. Was the most ‘professional’ performance of his career. To be fair to those who criticised him that is what they wanted to see from him.
Something tells me this will be him now. He looked incredibly determined this week. Get a couple back and he will rip the comp apart from here on.

Let's see re Charlie, hope so
Lots of potential and lots of game breakers
We can't make the GF this year, we have failed
In the last month we have gone backwards. 4 wins and we are back on track. Do not play a side in the 8, so even though we could lose some of these games if we are good enough we end up with 4 wins and most likely second
Still in our hands, if our heads are up to it

We need to trade for about 4 players who aren't getting a game at other clubs but can come straight in for us.
A full forward , a centre half back, and two fast running midfielders.

On the last month of footy. Yeh, we reckon it’s our contested work both inside and out. Whether we absorb it or bring it, it’s just not where we want it to be.
I think most of us see this. The question is why and why for so long?

Exactly what I was going to say. We won a lot of games without Harry last year so let's use that set up ... Providing we have the other personnel we had...might be missing SOS...not sure

One of my biggest takeaways from this game is that De Koning's incredible clearance work has been masking a truly inept midfield setup this season.
Some of our best wins were off the back of TDK getting rolling at the centre clearances and just forcing the ball forward at will. When it's left to the actual midfielders, we look incredibly basic and come up very very short.

But why has our midfield contested work gone to shit? We were winning games off that phase of the game only last year and it’s absolutely fallen in a heap
It’s also the only phase of a footy game that’s predictable and have any real control over, is that the problem that we are far too predictable?

They want to expand our turnover game, but once again they have stepped too far away from our clearance game
I suspect we return to it pretty quickly, starting this week
Completely different and seperate phases, turnover game is from open play and clearances are mainly from stoppages especially centre bounce stoppages which we’ve gone backwards at a significant rate of Knots

100% agree. Issue is it's now a pattern for us and very hard to turn around. I am sure we have been addressing it every week as it's been the core of our game style under Voss. The reason is then why?
In thought it was okay for first half against Port but still wasn't that manic attack we had last year. I don't think we have done it for 4 quarters this year?
Mental or Physical, Personnel or bits of both?
And you think setup doesn't play a role and how we control the tempo?

The bigger issue is 3 games in a row on the concrete in 13 days.
Particularly given the North game was such a tough contest. Because it was 2nd v 17th it was never acknowledged what an effort it took to break them.
With the injuries we were ripe for any half decent team to take advantage.

we have juniors at our work complaining they never get opportunities to shadow and learn. you provide this without any expectations, then they complain saying the water was too deep.
point being, grasps every opportunity you get and work your a$$ off..then respect will come.
players have been free loading off the back of Cripps for years. Im a bit annoyed because everyone has the ability to improve and do better.
frustration will come, and it wont be from supporters.
