AFLW 2024 - Round 9 - Indigenous Round - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
And we started flat in Perth too, so its not just the perth trip, its happened nearly every week. Massive concern.That's a cop out IMO Bill. 9 days is 2 days more than enough to recover and regroup.
Wasn't in the ones, really should have been, not sure how he went in the vfl and as much as I didn't rate him pre-season, he's given us some forward pressure that we lacked yesterday. Could've given us a bit of spark too.How did Nahas go guys ?
Yesterday highlighted many glaring deficiencies that we just can't overlook anymore.
1. Poor disposal
2. Poor decision making
3. Panic
4. Clueless, dumb football
5. Slow and small
6. Not Clean
Thankfully they are easily fixed.
In: Swallow, Wells, Wood, Nahas, Dumont
Out: Grima, Adams, Gibson, Firitto, Bastinac
Some just rested, some just for a reminder that senior players need to be better.
Lining up like this for Brisbane:
Atley - Tippett - Hansen
Mullet - Thompson - McDonald
Dal - Ben10 - McKenzie
Black - Petrie - Ziebell
Thomas - Daw - Harvey
Goldstein - Dumont - Wells
Nahas Greenwood Wood
Sub: Swallow
Em: Harper Garner Delaney
We'll be fine.

glaring deficiencies from 5 years ago, not much has changed.
I suspect Scott is pumping games into BMac with an eye to the future. I just wish he'd do the same with Wood, Dumont and Garner (when he's back up and running)
And we started flat in Perth too, so its not just the perth trip, its happened nearly every week. Massive concern.
Time for reputations and experience to be put aside and players to be selected on form. Can't keep accepting mediocrity when Brad told us all we were going to be an elite football club. Well we ain't anywhere near that.
Then I'd suggest he's pumping them into the wrong player, McKenzie ain't up to it, nice left foot kick in space sure, but that's about it, not hard enough, not quick enough, not big enough, not nasty enough. Next!
19 games.

and? doesn't mean you continue to play players in the seniors just to get games into them, fair enough if we are a developing side like saints etc but players need to earn spot that is the whole problem.
Gibbo had 30 yesterday with no assists. 26 uncontested possessions without an assist.
Adams & Grima are poor, great, poor in consecutive weeks. Fumble, panic, take stupid options.
Firitto was Firitto, he's been good but didn't set the tone as he should.
And Basti needs a rocket, head isn't in the game at the moment... Looks slow.
McKenzie is the new Jacobs
And you're the same Jack Reacher
19 games.
I hope so. The truth hurts Wild Bill, I understand and I forgive you
Old mate JR has written off McKenzie. That post up there is tantamount to "delist".
While I agree McKenzie has to earn his spot, I think he will, and will be a good player for us. None of this delist bullshit.
Why spare Boomer, Petrie, Wells (I know he's injured) then? The hallmark of this team is that most of our players are poor in losses. Only looking at 3 out of the 7 games is going to give you a skewed form lineNot drunk, just looking for scapegoats.
And all I can come up with is the blokes who are oldish, who repeatedly are poor in our losses.

This must be some sort of record.

I don't like making wholesale changes but we are slow, lack X factor & spark and we need to change this to avoid being another middle of the road irrelevance.
agree delist is just being silly.
