Look I’ve always been against the anti-Rawlings call, but ****, we left our recruiting in the hands of the guy with shocking disposals, what did we expect
 
I dunno I’m numb.

Football is a chore, it’s duty.

The most exciting thing was a kid taking 3 bounces.
that and a quarter and a half against Freo. Other than that it's bleak as hell. Maybe Comben taking some intercept marks

What a year!!!

What a decade!!!

:drunk:
 
Calling for Clarkson's head is a cop out tbh. I mean, it's possible that he's fallen off a cliff and doesn't have it anymore, but every coach we've had since Scott has run into the same problems. The list profile is always busted. The senior players are always trash. The players never stick to a structure and always go missing when the heat comes. The rot goes much deeper than whoever is sitting in the senior coach's chair.
He’s lost the plot. Bailey Scott is not a defender, yet he keeps persisting no matter how bad it gets.

It’s ****ing stupidity and stubbornness all rolled into one.

I knew Clarko was stubborn, but didn’t think it was at the expense of trying to win a game of footy.
 
Did I hear on the radio three tackles for the quarter? That’s even worse than it looked.

They have some better players right now especially in defence but they are not a seven goal better team than North. Want to see this tighten up in the third.
It's not even about tackles at this point H2H.

The structures are breaking down immediately after we lose possession. We're not covering the exits well enough.

It’s not the defenders.

It’s the defensive line pushing up to basically CHF.

It’s the acres of space teams have to hit an uncontested target in transition.

It’s the 5 free forwards sides can hit when they simply exit out D50 and clear the zone.
Is this on Clarko?
 
Yep.

Apathy.

Team wide. Out there for a pay check.

There are no competitors.


That's just it though.

These players conciously chose people who they knew simply did not produce or raise standards.

They chose their mates.

They told us and showed us who they are. That that is the standard they are absolutely comfortable with. Why didn't people believe them?

Ben McKay and Todd Goldstein came out in the same week and said basically the same thing.

You get what you pay for.
 
My hope/goal for the 2nd half...

Show some sign that we've made a change and figured something out for next week and that we don't just push on with the same strategy.
