Doesn't even look a match out here tbh.

Half the Eagles forwardline is getting up to help stoppage, but then it leaves nothing to kick to up forward and H.Andrews is having the easiest game of his life.

Structurally, we are a complete shambles. Stack the middle, and then flood back... (Who cares about trying to score anyway?) Too bad the team is full of players who can't cover the ground between the two fast enough, leaving holes everywhere for Brisbane to exploit.


So many players around the ball, but so few are making any impact. The lack of pace coming out of stoppage is such a huge difference compared to the opposition.

So many times it appears the experienced players just hold up play through instinct, which kills the chance of getting the ball forward with any conviction.

The younger players conversely, are the ones who are taking things on and providing what slim opportunity does come.


F*** the extras in the middle and keep the forwards in place. Having 4 shots in a half is useless, especially when it results in Brisbane winning by 100+ points anyway. At least provide something to kick to up forward and make the Brisbane defenders somewhat accountable.

Yeah but Simmo/Nissie probably need better scoreboard optics (in terms of margin) to keep the dissenting voices from getting their way.
 
Williams doing well in the ruck but the mids just watch Brissy gather the ball and walk it out.

From what i can see they are being coached to not lose by a lot, going with old chip kick style, i'm with you, **** it have a go, losing is losing.
