We didn’t lose because of lefau or Dow
We lost bc the team only showed up for almost half the game… seniors not leading

Round 1 record attendance was for every game combined.....It was a Carlton home game lol
Miles off it.Absolutely ridiculous playing lefau.
What are u onI am going to type this for the millionth time, and I hope someone at the club reads it...
CAN WE STOP BOMBING LONG DOWN THE LINE TO OUTNUMBERS AND HEIGHT MISMATCHES ONLY TO GIVE THE OPPOSITION AN EASY INTERCEPT AND REPEAT INSIDE 50'S?
What exactly is the game plan. Kick short, fumble below your knees and kick down the line when they have a height advantage? Looks ridiculous to me but what would I know.
Sarcasm identification not a strong point I seeYeah fumbling is a huge part of the game plan and not a skill issue.
Perhaps out for lack of intent and effort plus turning the ball overYze needs to say something, all he has to do is have a smart dig at the presser like "who is coming last again the free kick ladder i wonder???....blah blah blah "we need to get better in that area"..then the roll of the eyes and a sarcastic grin.
also mention that Jayden Short may be out next week with a dislocated finger.
I'm sorry we dumped mini now and i'm serious too.I think our gameplan is a worry as well. It’s either hand ball or long kick. Doesnt suit the team we put on the field. Won’t win many games either.

Unfortunately it's what we do we when we can't string possession chains together due to poor skills, running the wrong lines and later in the game when we run out of legs to provide other options.I am going to type this for the millionth time, and I hope someone at the club reads it...

Corrupt Football League.interstate side comes to the g and romps the free kick count home 24-12
who does that ?
margin in the end probably was indicative of umps heavy influence on yet another Richmond game
I guess it's 12 months until Yze is under pressure, but I'm not liking what I'm seeing.I think our gameplan is a worry as well. It’s either hand ball or long kick. Doesnt suit the team we put on the field. Won’t win many games either.

Dow got better as the game went on…but still not his bestIf we're Looking to the future Baker, Bolton, Balta and Ross were great.
Trezise, Campbell and Brown looked at the level.
Dow and Banks were a big worry
Swap McIntosh and Pickett. McIntosh was solid today. A lot of intercept marks down back. Pickett however was close to WOG. Thankfully Lynch, Lefau and Banks were worse.
I don't know if we have the answer to this, but one big issue we have this season is teams controlling the game in the air. All of our three opponents have done this:
Gold Coast 118-72 marks, 18-8 marks inside 50
Carlton 98-69 marks, 12-10 marks inside 50
Port Adelaide 107-74 marks, 17-7 marks inside 50.
Once our opponent marks, it feels like every one of our players ends up trailing their opponent all the way to our defensive 50. When we mark the ball though, our opposition down the field do not trail our players like that. That's what I think is causing this large marking differential. Apart from our obvious height issue due to injuries, this is probably one of our biggest issues right now. In our Premiership years, we would just apply frenetic pressure and win the ball back when teams tried this. But we can't do that anymore.
This problem is Yze's first real coaching challenge IMO. I look forward to seeing what he'll do about this because Sydney and St Kilda are also good at this. Sydney beat Melbourne (99-63) and Essendon (94-71) this way on a small ground like the SCG, while St Kilda beat Collingwood (106-79) at the MCG this way. So this is a real concern that we have to address if we don't want to go 0-5. Don't know if we can with our injuries, but that is probably going to be one of our biggest (if not the biggest) concerns heading into our next two matches.
give the guy a chance. Besides GC we lost to Carlton many have as top6 then Port Top4. Anyone in their right mind would know finals was not on the table.I guess it's 12 months until Yze is under pressure, but I'm not liking what I'm seeing.
Yes ... dropping Grimes for Young seems like the right move ... Miller Brown and Tresize where all betterI hope we move on from Grimes ASAP. He does all the things old players do. Gets out marked and out muscled, not fast (he used to be really quick), plays for frees and is going bald.
I’m not early but think Yze will be a good choiceI'm sorry we dumped mini now and i'm serious too.
It obvious we are not up to the bigger bodied teams so why not blood them now and give them the experience they need now.Well might be time to play the kids, we be fugged.
Outs - Dow, Lefau, kmac
Ins - sonsie, Cumberland, McCauliffe
