Game Day North v Hawks zero wins apiece face off for the Clarko Cup. Souva’s 100th.

[JGreezy]

Someone has to do something.

The one guy who could is hidden in the back pocket by our lazy coaches.

Sheezel, LDU, Zurhaar in the middle, please, please.

If we play out this game without moving our gun star player to a more dangerous, less conservative, role then I've lost all faith in the coaching staff.

 

[SheezNuts]

2 Losers as our captains

Horrible leaders

No structure

No development

Club is dead

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

The players simply (apart from a select few) don’t care

Yep.

Apathy.

Team wide. Out there for a pay check.

There are no competitors.

 

[archereleven]

Zurhaar, duursma, and LDU look like they've packed their bags already and on the phone to their agents.

Hmmm what are the excuses for today?

Wasn’t unhappy with the 1st quarter but jesus that 2nd…

 

[Horizons_00]

I'll give you the Clarko presser now: It's the bigger picture that matters. It's just about giving our young guys, your Mckerchers, your Zursmmas, your Phillips exposure to the level (i.e. constant floggings). We just have to roll up our sleeves and continuing working. We know the tide will turn at some point.

We’re actually exposing and destroying these young players confidence

It will be entrenched into them they can’t win

Im sick of this excuse from Clarko

 

[Sphynx]

We won't win a game until the backline is fixed unfortunately.
So so many stupid errors down there it's just too easy for oppo forwards to score.

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.

Half time thoughts from Marvel

• If you have stopped watching I don't blame you.
• If you have given up on footy I don't blame you.
• Far too many of our players look totally and utterly bereft of confidence out there. Including but not limited to; McKercher, Simpkin, McDonald, Corr, Biggie, Larkey, Sellers, LDU, Stephens, Fisher, Scott...
• This is not on coaching. This is on our list. We all have royal-blue tinted glasses and we overrate our players, but I can count on one hand the number of actually good players on our list.
• Sheezel been good, Phillips been good, Comben been good, LDU had some patches...
• We need to have a conversation about Larkey.
• We have an absolute absence of on-field leadership. Jy and Luke are absolutely terrible captains. I'm sorry. They just are.
• I don't know where we go from here. I really wanted to believe we were better than this.

Should be able to double like the bit about how pathetic Simpkin and McDonald are.

Both should be playing VFL. Give me Hardeman and George over these two frauds.

 

[Rod Stroker]

We can already fire up the autopsy thread... for next week

 

[Engimal v3]

How are we getting worse?

 

[Moti]

Philips has a few solid contests possessions but has made zero difference to the midfield defensively. In fact, we are putting up our worst numbers.

LDU has checked the * out

I swear he’s gone. He wants out of this club, we’re success is demanded and there is a reason to be competitive

 

[DrZaius]

Pretty sick of being miserable at the footy watching North shit themselves time after time while surrounded by oppo fans having the time of their lives

 

[pitchster]

If Jy spent less time fixing his hair and more time trying to win the ball it would be nice. I want for small things now.

 

[rickety]

I couldn’t tell you Stephen’s number or what he looks like, what colour is his hair? Vanilla like his performance??

Rossy Smith has taken to wearing a disguise when he goes shopping .... embarrassed to have to share the #15 with him

 

[Joshen]

That’s going to make a difference

It will to Joshen!!!

I'll be cancelling my True Roo status.

Next year they can work for my membership, not take it for granted.

 

[treegreen]

I genuinely think we'll win this. The boys should be getting absolutely roasted at half time and play like their lives depend on it these last two quarters.

 

[Roosurgence]

We won't win a game until the backline is fixed unfortunately.
So so many stupid errors down there it's just too easy for oppo forwards to score.

It’s not even the backline. The forward line and midfield apply no pressure and teams just walk it down the other end.

If Luke McDonald was a Captain he would hand it back, he’s an embarrassment.

 

[Premieroos]

I hope this is one of the two sprays a season that coaches apparently are allowed. I would be torching the leaders and general lack of effort and then asking some questions of Leigh Adams

Not the 4 players crashing into each other and letting easy goals through?

 

[chickenonachain]

Whoever the so called no 1 draft pick is this year will be having nightmares

 

[scottywiper]

I think the AFL will have to intervene. This is horrifically bad.

 

[Engimal v3]

Jy has been invisible

 

[Woolly Mammoth]

We are making 2024 Hawks look like 2014 Hawks. After years of complaining about crowds I can now see why people don't show.

I’m super sure venting at some kid in admin will help a lot.
