The worst part is Melbourne were utter shit. And for most of the game we utterly dominated them. ugh

Daniher is not the problem.. the fact that a 17 GAME young forward is our KEY marking option.. and is generating 3-4 shots on goal a game.. should be enough to have us excited about the future..
His kicking will come.. and if not.. we have a Richo on our hands..
Yeah.. at least put a little bit of the fear of god into defender backing into the space..It's not even so much losing, given we were never going to win the premiership this year. It's just the way we have been playing. Uninspired, uninterested and generally without development of the 3-5 year players.
I know the argument's been run and done, but would love to see if we could swing a certain someone from the backline into the forwardline that has shown flashes of brilliance when thrown forward in the past - surely a big body down there will give Joey a bit more freedom to not be scragged at every opportunity, and a bit of pack busting will create opportunities for others.
We are a bottom four side.
Shocked...Ashby's games have been better than Melksham's. Some saying trade TBC, ffs he missed a lot of the pre-season. Took important grabs but just farked up two very easy shots.
Daniher's marking was a problem tonight but yeah he'll learn.
To me though it's very difficult to knock players as we have no idea how things are effecting them. Three of our best players tonight were Zaka, Goddard and Z Merrett.
MEMO to mods: The game thread on main board is a farking poor with so many ASADA/drug references.
Because they actually hired the best coach, and not the most popular name amongst the supporter base (which is what Port somewhat did with their previous coaching hire in Matthew Primus, that went well for them...).What shits me the most is Port have achived way more in 2 years then we have since the new coaching regime came in.
Yep, we're the masters of playing players, and clubs, into form. Have been for a long time.And to top off a shit game for us there's the usual "playing an absolute spud into a superstar"..
Dunn. Check
Pedersen. Check
Jamar. Check
Ah good, we made sure that was covered then.
**** sake
it's certainly good enough to compete with any of those, we more than hold our own in the middle when we play most of those sides, sometimes we dominate, but the forwards lead to all the wrong places and the ball just pings straight back out.
Everyone is hanging shit in Melksham, but he should have hit one of our forwards on the chest in the square with an absolute bullet, but he (i think it was ryder, may have been TBC) tried to cheat and get out the back and it hit Dunn on the chest). Melksham was awful tonight, but that's not on him, that's 100% not having any forward IQ and no understanding of your teammates
