I assume Mundy and Hill were playing on Gaff and Rosa on the wings. If they were they were appalling. Don't even want to talk about Duffield. Or Clark for that matter.

Probably need to see what we can get for Barlow.
The most apparent things at ground level was our inability to get first hands from the ruck knock and a reactive mindset.
West Coast hunted the ball then spread with purpose.
Torched us.
Just listened to Ross´press conference.
He again identified the midfield as our main liability or achilles heel.
Our lack of spread. Our lack of run and use of the ball. Getting smashed in the stoppages particularly in the second quarter. Identified a lack of depth in the middle. Thought Mundy and Barlow are still working back into it. Missing Fyfe and Mora.
Spoke of possibly putting De Boer and Mayne in there.
Noted we had 7 inside 50´s after half time!!!!! Lost the clearances 14 to nil in the second term. Thought the defence held up well.
Walters got a mention of possibly coming into the forward line to allow Mayne or De Boer to go up the ground.
Thought the three tall defenders and 2 ruckman (talks of Zac as a forward) didn´t work today as we lacked run, particularly out of defence.

Macpharlin lead with purpose, he's the obvious candidate.
Ibbotson's a crab
Id like to see Pav in the Matthew Richardson role on a wing. Play on a wing. Rest in the forward pocket. As Eagles showed today thats a clear area of weakness. Stick Pav on one wing and IMO Ibbotson on the other (a spell back in the midfield might help him turn his form around).
You need someone on the wing to play with accountability. Is there anyone else who could do that? Its a big hole in your list atm. Even with Fyfe out though you were still 1 winger short. Now your just 2 short
Yeah, you'd like to see that, wouldn't you?Id like to see Pav in the Matthew Richardson role on a wing. Play on a wing. Rest in the forward pocket.

Bloody depressing our midfield at the moment.
I just hope Mundy gets back to form with increased fitness as does Barlow. Although Barlow should be at peak fitness as he didn´t really miss that much of the pre-season, just a few NAB cup matches. Maybe he´s just a hack like Palmer.
Broughton´s not a mid either.
Crowley is horrible.
Hill is a wingman or back flanker,.
Suban has been a disappointment.
Crichton doesn´t have the tank to be an AFL level midfielder. Never will.
Pitt has lost all confidence and has never been one to rack up the ball anyway.
Sheridan shows potential.
Mitchie was looking great until injury hit.
Fyfe and Mora out injured on on the way back from injury.
Neale is still a baby.
Pearce has been our best mid this year although was quiet on the weekend.
Lower is on the outer.
Van berlo is a hack. De list.
I completely understand why Lyon has been trying to turn Ballas into a mid. We need more depth urgently. More class and more run.
Our midfield depth is terrible.
