Yep i like Joey being able to do the second ruck work, not for his ruck work but being able to get involved with the game and picking up disposals around the middle. BUT with Hipwood not playing we had our hands tied abit i suppose. Joey just seemed not with it after first quarter, no where near opponent when GWS came out of backline, he just seemed well of the pace. Pressure well done, was he narky not being able to get involved and moved into the middle, i have no idea, just my opinion.Yep, but I like him as a prospect. Would give games to him next year just not in the middle of premiership tilt. I think the biggest issue is that when Joe has a game like today that if Smith plays there's no way we can throw Joe in the ruck to get him involved.
Maybe we LOOKED tired today because of the team we played against. They like to play quick so as we all know that can lead to issues for our team.The boys just looked tired. Fletcher and Wilmot had a few decision making brain farts that I would put down to mental fatigue.

Can’t believe berry wasn’t given ago in the middle, he must be very frustratedGiants is also a terrible clearance team but dominated after quarter time
When Jones kicked his first goal when scores were level; what the **** was Brain thinking?
Brain seems another forward minded defender. We have quite a few of those, don't we.Brain has been OK, but I think Answerth should come back in if he has a good game tomorrow in the VFL.
Brain struggled with his defensive positioning against Jones a few times. Looked a bit lost out there.
The only real choices are Answerth and Ah Chee. Answerth has been injured and Ah Chee is probably good value where he is.Brain seems another forward minded defender. We have quite a few of those, don't we.
Think we're really missing some more selfless defenders at the club, guys who just want to shutdown and be okay with not racking up 400+ metres gained.
He wasn’t just “letting” Joyce take the load, they were literally tussling back and forth the entire game trying to switch their opponents. Hogan was actively trying to switch the matchup constantly.No but of all games today was a day for Harris to play on his man and just be tight and disciplined. Letting Joyce shoulder the load of the Coleman medallist was poor leadership.
They have been pushing for it for a whileSurely not. 60-80k easy would have the AFL host it at the G.
Worst case I'd back us in at the cattery.

My first thought was that we just threw it away but on reflection we only kicked 3 after half time on our home deck.Think it would be easy to overreact to today but tbh it’s a less worrying loss by my viewing than the others. Giants shot the lights out and took their chances, we didn’t. We still had the run of the play for I would say at least 40% of the game and we managed to turn it into a scrap most of the time when the giants got on top.
If our biggest issue is not finishing off our dominant play to me that is a much more fixable issue than actually being outplayed over the ground for long periods
Yet we play two rucks when their ruck was an out this week.Maybe we LOOKED tired today because of the team we played against. They like to play quick so as we all know that can lead to issues for our team.
That's the way I saw it but there were just a few worrying things that we need to work on . Obviously we're a defender or two down which is fine as long as the m/f do their job.Felt like we did enough today to win the game. You play that game 10 times with variance in our accuracy and we win that 9/10 times I reckon.
We should have had enough scoreboard pressure to withstand their surges, which ended up being the difference.
