l'm putting it out there because no one is perfect we all make mistakes but if the umpires make 20 mistakes/non calls a game which is probably about right the opposition seems to get 15 bonuses their way.

We are two years away from getting back on track if we do everything right with drafts and trades.
We have to be brave and delist and retire off guys like Dow, Kmac, Mansell , Pickett, Naismith , Kosi and Banks as we can't build a culture of mediocrity as that's we we are heading as so many substandard blokes were trotting around today bringing us back to the 90's. Our list managers have totally messed our side up with the shit drafts and trades over the past 4 years and it's now becoming evident.
Must try and trade off the squirrel Short and lazy footballers like Broad and Baker.
Positives today were LEFau, Brown, HRS, SONZ, Young, Miller and Dusty
We don't need Pickett to get to 100 games as i don't want to risk having another kid on our list with a low DE.
Nakkers must not captain us again next season as he's a brain dead goose and momentum killer. A disgraceful example to the kids.

William Bella get him!!!We need size!!! Are we the smallest team in the competition!!
Big mids at the draft
And some kpp that split packs.
On a brighter note on the Hurstbridge line and Terry Wallace is in my carriage. The Tiger fans are peppering him with Questions
if there's a kid showing form in the vfl they need to play. there's no excuses playing pickett and kmac, even grimes. if they have a younger counterpart in the vfl get them in. the kids will learn nothing from these guys but how to turn the ball over or give away ludicrous free kicks.

I just added him , but your post beat me.
great game from the boys and extremely great match committee selections
like who could've predicted that keeping the same fwd line that kicked 5 goals last game would only kick 6 goals this game
good thing we didn't reward coulthard&ryans consistent vfl form, otherwise we might've lost the game by over 50 points!!...

Easily our worst performance this year, considering it was on our home deck, with barely anything to get really excited about. Hopefully those that want us to do a North or Hawthorn and cut deeply now get that idea out of their heads. If we were to go down that path then what we dished up today becomes the norm and we'll become a basket case like we were during the 2000s.
We've got a core that we can build around, but it's not going to happen overnight. I mentioned earlier this season that things were going to get worse before they get better and nothing has changed that opinion. The positive though is that we're getting games into some young cubs who may have a future and we're slowly but surely moving on from the older guys that are no longer able to get the job done.
I've said since before the season starts that wins and losses mean little this year as this is ground zero for Yze and the club in terms of his tenure. He inherited a list that Hardwick thought was thereabouts for another charge, but in reality it wasn't and now the rebuilding of the list is on in earnest.
Now is the time to get on board with Yze and the young cubs who are the future. There have been some glimpses this year and these kids have been asked to step up during the injury crisis and try and carry the load and unfortunately they have found it tough, but they will benefit from it down the track when they get some senior players back into the side in the coming weeks to provide more leadership.
Hopefully we keep backing in the cubs and keep putting development into them as form warrants selection, and some of the older blokes who have been playing while we deal with the injuries are the ones who make way when the older guys who are injured start to return. Can't wait for next Saturday night and the game against the Dogs, as I want to see who is willing to step up and fight for the jumper.

We have been saying the same think the last couple of seasons the senior players let us down and the kids take the rapt and get dropped .
Blind freddy could see we needed a few more changes.
Ryan in for more structure with Lefau and what we do we continue with a pure ruckman in Naismith. Will say it again his in the side solely as a pure ruckman or his in the vfl.
Campbell needs a spell no problems rotating kids Coulthard was the natural choice.
Macca and Pickett. Pickett is either going to tag or his not in that side now simple as that. Get in Smith or McAuliffe there taking games from kids. Short straight back in just like Graham the other week based on what both have been so poor in 2024.
Have a look at our general skills and kicking turnovers who's the main causes of them.
I'm not sure Yze has full control of the match committee.

If I only had a Tardis….
were literally playing ourselves. this season will be a complete waste unless we get some development in and properly transition into the next generation line-up. it's going to suck but the bandaids gotta come off at some point.

Agree. Don't understand how some supporters can get so angry.
We clearly just need to tick over for picks.

At one stage during the last Q I looked at our starting 6 in the f50 and it included Dow, Kmac and Marlion!!
Big Bella would have looked like a world beater amongst that lot!!!!!!

Should not have played Naismith. He offers us nothing as a forward. Ryan would have competed better today, AND given us a target down forward.

Our club needs another spring clean out again, too many people are taking easy money at our club but aren't earning it, meehan is first that needs to be booted.
When is Dow getting dropped? Seriously, bloke has played one and a half decent games this year. He’s had his run and is not up to AFL standard. 0 tackles today to go with his usual **** all disposals.
Changes for this next week:
Out: Dow, Naismith, Grimes, Campbell, McIntosh
In: Balta, Graham, Prestia, McAuliffe, Trezise

They need to make some huge changes next week and inject some difference.
Naismith should never play again unless nank gets injured
Get Coulthard, Cumberland and Ryan in straight away
