Because Voss has no idea.Amazing how good Kennedy looks when we actually play him and play him in the middle! Honestly do not know why he has started multiple games now as sub, or has played forward only.
Reminds me of Ratten era.I wouldn’t bother with Voss press conferences.
He is completely full of shit.
Offers no insight whatsoever.
Completely out of his depth.
Not one to bag a player but my god he was hard to watch tonight. TDK is such a huge loss.Pittonet finished with 0 marks and 0 tackles. Not sure how this is even possible as a number one ruck.
Issues were identified last year.In what way
Why, in ****'s sake, was McGovern allowed to take that kick???
McGovern had already had his head slammed into the deck in the final term, with a tackle that'll get looked at. He ran head first into someone's knee. He was wobbling all over the place when he first got up, and it should've been clear to all and sundry that he wasn't right.
Why the **** wasn't there a club doctor on site to take him off that ****ing instant? Leave the notion of surrendering the ball to someone not suffering from concussion symptoms allowing them to kick straighter, if Gov was allowed to take his kick whilst suffering from a concussion it puts the entire AFL policy on concussion and head knocks up as the sham it is. Players have even more of an incentive to knock the back of your head in a marking contest now, shove a cheeky forearm when no-one can see at the bottom of a pack or slam your head into the deck.
I was there that night and was 100% sure he would miss it and he duely obliged. Like Gov most probably, he was also concussed.Vs Geelong at Marvel
Some of us, have been talking about the deficiencies of the coaching group and questionable tactics and selection since his appointment.
Wins cover the cracks.
But in reality since r1 2022, this 1 quarter of football game style has in place.
Led by talent based system.
Totally reliant on Cripps and Weitering, whats changed...?

Dosn’t help when the gameplan dosn’t fit our list profile.Tonight just shows that at the end of the day the only blokes we can rely on are Cripps, Weitering and Saad. The rest of them are either work in progress, too fragile or not up to it, and I include Walsh, Charlie and Harry all of whom were poor tonight.
We probably need to miss the finals to get the change we need. Russell and Austen need to go. Austen has left us with a lack of height down back and list depth by re-signing injury prone players. Russell has destroyed Cerra and is on track to do the same to Walsh.
So many things to be angry about this match but sometimes certain things happen that make you shake your head.
Start of the last quarter McGovern is grabbed whilst over the boundary line and the Pies player slings him to the ground, the ball was already out and guess what, nothing happened, where were our players running in and messing them up? There was nothing, its not the first time our players have stood back and let someone walk all over a team mate, its was crap.
The strange part is all pre season we were training to run and handball only. Not sure why this has changed so drastically.We need to talk about the game plan. Our ball movement is horrendous. No patterns, no quick, one, two, three release, no overlap. Our midfield is Cripps or bust. How is it we have no ball movement plan? Why is our game plan kick chip, chip, chip and bomb it to the wing where we lose 90% of the contested marks??
It truly is horrendous. I've been loathe to criticise Voss but he was part of one of the greatest midfields in history unable to teach setting up around contests, ball ups, throw ins?
And seriously Walsh is playing some of the most ineffective football from an A grade player I have ever seen.
Pittonet finished with 0 marks and 0 tackles. Not sure how this is even possible as a number one ruck.
2 words......Jack. Daniels.
Unpopular opinion incoming!
Walsh's disposal over the last couple of months has gone seriously AWOL.
Even when we were winning he was liable to making unforced errors.
Is he carrying a worse back injury than we are being told? His disposal is usually pretty good but if you take the blue glasses off for a minute and look at all aspects of our game, it's definitely something I've noticed.
Not saying it's costing us games by any means but it's certainly alarming.

I thought the first shot from Charlie you could see on his face he was thinking too much. He plays well on instinct.Think we lost this in the 1st quarter, kicked badly, due to having so many shots from long distance, that's selfish footy for me
Next 2 quarters, played with fear of not wanting to lose, rather than playing to win
Last quarter, it was back to playing the game on merit, too little too late
Plenty of selfish play prior to the last, hope the penny drops and things start to turn
Is that two words or two names?2 words......Jack. Daniels.
