He had a great game
Anyone who has ever read my posts will know that, win lose or draw, I’m always looking for the positives. I don’t like supporters who are fickle and reactive, but, and it pains me to say this, that was nothing short of disgraceful...
First of all, you don’t lose Kreuzer and replace him with Polson. It threw out the structure completely. Not Polson’s fault, but that was just dumb.
I’ll start with the captain. Murphy cannot play an inside role any more. He’s just physically inferior and unable to impact the contest. Wing, high half forward, outside run and distribution. But cannot play inside any more.
Weitering. Far too worried about getting hurt. I love that boy, but he needs to toughen up real quick and learn that footy needs to be “ugly” sometimes.
Cripps. I know it’s a hangable offence to criticise Patty, but one game on and one game off won’t cut it I’m afraid. Did not stand up to the pressure today. Did nothing to change the momentum of the game. Sorry, not good enough.
Only positives today, Charlie and Thomas. Maybe Marchbank in spurts.
The rest were putrid. Again, I’m sorry to use such harsh language. But the constant fumbling, the inability to hit a two metre handball, the dropped marks, the incredibly poor decision making, the turn overs by foot under no pressure, the lack of effort and work rate, and the DUMB footy was sickening...
I watched St.Kilda play the worst game of footy I’ve ever seen yesterday. We matched them today.
Very very disappointing.
Wish Murphs had been traded, not Gibbsy. Levi has to go (no value up forward or in ruck). Mullet was OK today (watch this space situ) Fisher a big tick. Weiters down but not out. Bolts needs to find Jones' best position and leave him there. Daisy continues to put his heart into playing. While we need to get our ruck brigade back just as importantly we need to get consistency in our on ball pressure and tackling.Zac Fisher is an out and out GUN. For someone yet to reach puberty, he is one of the very few to consistently put his head over the ball and play with heart. Not only that, whenever a teammate cops an unfair hit, it's 4 foot 6 inch, 38kg Zac bloody Fisher first in remonstrating with someone 5 x his size.
The Curnow boys good, Cripps good, Daisy okay. Everyone else just about was average to outright embarrassing.
Weiters, Jones, Mullet, Byrne, O'Shea, Polson are all not AFL standard at this moment. Still so many passengers.
Murphy is declining rapidly.
Right, rant over. I'm of to rage-drink till the voices in my head stop telling me to "burn it all down" and until I can't feel feelings.
Philips and McKay both played in the vfl didnt they? i understand Philips is under done but we still should of played McKay and why wouldn't you play Kerridge over polson at least kerridge would hav got his hands on it and got in and had a go he actually was good late last yrThey are all injured... all of them... every one... we don't have a fit ruck...
wasn't bad but i wouldn't go that far. tried but im not sure he gives us much
Inside fifty count???
Casboult was the best option for the ruck in this game under the circumstances we found ourselves in... I didn't realise Phillips played, but if he did, it was his first game back from a long, long injury layoff... there is no way you bring McKay into the ruck, so my positions stands.Philips and McKay both played in the vfl didnt they? i understand Philips is under done but we still should of played McKay and why wouldn't you play Kerridge over polson at least kerridge would hav got his hands on it and got in and had a go he actually was good late last yr
WEEE Had none that are ready
We will not be genuine finals material until we become consistent in applying pressure and minimising our skill errors (not to mention win games). We are some way off that experience.I dont even want to play finals....but can they just TEASE us with the POSSIBILITY of playing finals until ohh maybe rn10?
No, every year, the season is lost before it begins. We are woeful.
