Ollie Wines 8 contested, 19 uncontested. I predit next year he will be fully Matt Crouch/Kane Cornesed. Or even Travis Boaked.
 
Farrell and Bonner were dreadful but have some money in the bank from previous performances this year.

Mead is a nothing player who I don't want to see again.

Georgiades is horrifically out of form and we gain nothing from playing him. Because we play all our forwards in the sanfl in defence we have no reasonable replacements. Great strategy.

The difference between the two teams is really just class up forward. I love SPP but missing 4/5 chances completely ruins you when you are playing against decent teams.

Butters, Wines, Gray all sub par games.
Nailed it.

Strangely, it wasn’t the ruck that killed us. It was a lack of composure and polish, defensive accountability and a bottom six who left us comprehensively outnumbered for most of the game.

Few positives at all and numerous big headaches.

Bergman, Drew and Rozee were the pluses.

Butters’ unreliability, Georgiades’ worsening levels of incompetence, Mead’s inability to rise to the required level and Farrell’s distinct lack of effort or energy killed us. Then we have three of the worst performing tall defenders in the competition.

Should’ve really won that, but Pickett took his half chances and (mostly) SPP missed ours.

I was really impressed with Bergman. Building each game, which is a credit after coming back from illness. Really like his composure, hardness and attack on the ball. 16 touches, 2 goals and 8 marks is a good return.
 
Farrell is basically an absolute potato with one elite weapon. if he averaged 2 goals a game you'd excuse that, but he doesn't. so **** him off.

Bonner was back to 2019 Boner.

Wines has had one of the shitter brownlow reigns in recent memory. In danger of becoming Tom Mitchell part 2.

Rozee is too good for us

We could have picked ****ing sam de koning instead of mitch spray-giades.

Aliir is just average now

NOT PLAYING AN ACTUAL RUCKMAN DOESNT WORK

houston brought shame on his family, his house, and his career with the most pissweak tackle effort i've ever seen. Imagine if that was Lachie Jones. Neal-Bullen would have been snapped in half.
 
Should be disappointed but that was just a Port effort. Mead is just a nothing footballer at the moment but so many of our senior players are just done. Looking forward to rolling Hinkley and co out in season 2023. Rinse and repeat.
