[Ghossein]

hewett has judd like tendencies

 

[jaxxon]

Williams, Hewitt, Maric, Long, Hough, Gaff, Chesser, Allan and SPS had a go and showed something, or weren't terrible.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

So angry with SPS.

Thought he played quite well today but then that stupid tackle will see him out for at least 2 weeks.

Not helping himself is he.

 

[Wight Wolf]

Positive - Chesser and Maric developing

Negative - Eagles did or came close to winning the second half essentially masking the deep seeded issues the club has. Sack the coach and coaching staff ASAP. Shuey cant play on either, RIP club legend.

Can't be mad at that tackle though. He lets go and we all bag him for being soft

That's a league wide issue. No malice at all in it

[Dark Sharks]

Negatives

Kelly was awful.
Shuey was awful, then dead.
Sheed was awful.
Bazzo needs some WAFL time at some point because he's a bit off the pace at AFL level.
Witherden shouldn't be playing AFL.




Positives were the same as the last month really.

Hewett, Maric and Long made the game worth sitting through.

Williams broke even with Dekonig who the media seem to think is better than Paul Salmon.

Hough looked like he was having a crack again.

Agree with a league wide issue but how many instances do players need to see before they adapt their tackles?

I honestly don't know what you do in that situation other than let go

Funny how your last 4 negatives are issues the coach is paid to address yet its not on him

Wouldn't hurt if the other bloke let go of the footy to brace his fall either

 

[WCErevival]

Is that it for Shuey then? Can we expect a retirement announcement?

 

[Cornelius Roy]

A pretty horrendous game but perhaps one of the biggest positives of our season occurred in the second half with our coaching staff recognising that Dom Sheed is CBA kryptonite.

You eliminate the player who is routinely sagging off his direct opponent every time the ball doesn't spill to Sheed sitting 5m off the contest offering no defence against the opposition overlap runner and you immediately become more competitive as a side. A big step forward in the right direction for us.

For me Dom is on the same pile as Rotham at the end of the year, find a trade or accept a payout.

I didn't want to raise Gaff today as I thought he was quite good but I'd 100% rather have Gaff in my side busting his arse even if his body makes it so he can't impact some contests vs Sheed who simply won't impact contests if the ball doesn't find him.

With a young group coming through we cannot have players with this type of attitude being among the first picked each week on the list.

He has to doesn't he?

His body has given up, surely he knows this.

The Bailey Smith one last night will be interesting

But probably starting to derail the thread...

Farewell game in round 24 for mine at home vs Adelaide

Comes on as the sub

I think much of that is the job of various assistants

He may be able to play round 24?

We got flogged you fool. Game done in 15 minutes. Simpson then put our full forward to full back and played chip mark handsies which Carlton were more than happy to go along with because they had injuries and a finals series to think about.

Is the coach responsible for anything?

 

[KERRPOW]

Similar to nic, a sad end to shueys career.

One player you could never question his commitment to the cause.

 

[random260]

Shuey will remain the worst captain we have ever had. And will remain as a model of that not to do as captain

A captain need to be out there but 50 percent of Shuey captaincy has been on the sideline.

Shuey reluctance to do that right thing in stepping down is anotjer black mark.

Glass knew when time up. Cousins as well

 

[Mop]

- The first half, the senior players.

+ Young blokes showing something.
Not losing by 6 figures.
