Too slow on the forward line.No crumbers as usual.Cox looks like he needs a spell in the reserves.
If they could deliver it quickly he may have a chance. With the sudden stp at half back as they move forward is killing our forwards. Has been the case all year. I'll say it again (every week) Sinclair is a liability and should never ever play a game. He did a smother but anyone can put out the hands and smother. He's had 5 kicks that I have seen all of them to the opposition.....he's other trait is he handballs to teammates standing still all all all the time. The players obviosly have no faith in king kong cloke who spends most of his time trying to take the mark with wrestling 'show of strength', rather than being in the position and just going for the damn ball
 
The defence actually deserves praise for holding on. We dominated all stats but inside 50s and they made very good effort to keep us in front in the first half.

All in all we are looking out of solutions and as a result constantly handball to a man under pressure or turn it over. We need to restructure the team as we are looking comprehensively out played by a more organised team which is covering the ground better than we are. We seem to have a massive gap in the middle and half forward to perhaps bring some support there rather than behind the ball. Probably a result of our half forward being decimated without Fasolo, Elliott and Swan and De Goey and Phillips not as good as hoped there.

Pendles and Greenwood doing very well (Greenwood because he's negating Gibbs) and good to see Varcoe having an influence.
 
If tonight's performance by Sinclair doesn't tell the coaches that he is a major liability I don't know what will. Sinclair should never play AFL again.
Thankfully the coaches don't focus on a couple of mistakes - unlike the pitchfork brigade they see all the good things players do throughout a game. Sinclair had a great first quarter apart from the final minute and has been reasonable in the 2nd.

Yes, they are trying hard. The team play and structure from the HB line onwards though seems to be falling down time and again though, and Simpson is feasting on our errors and lack of smarts.
 
Skills not good but Bolton teaching Bucks a lesson yet again

You have a better 22 right now i mean our midfield is non existent while yours has a host of big names.

Really poor standard game from both teams with skills and decision making.

But if the coaches swapped and Bolton was coaching Collingwood tonight and Bucks Carlton, i think Collingwood would be at least 5 goals up.
 
Blind Freddie can see that a change of coach is so required....F...m. make the call Collingwood otherwise my 20 years of being a long standing member will end no question.....

Aside from the smother, I'd love to know what the "good things" are. Has turned the ball over almost every time he's put the ball to boot.
 
Cmon pies lets tear the scum apart and knock the stuffing out of sos son sick of hearing about him.
 
Parker 183 not super quick
Hannaberry 181 not quick
Mitchell 181 not super quick
Jack 178 not quick
Height & Pace is no excuse, we just dont have the heart or desire compared to the top teams.
