So I just got shot down for suggesting that Soldo wasn’t 100% last week which explained why we played two rucks and why Soldo was mostly in the forward line.

Sweet will be serviceable. The big problem last week was the midfield going completely missing after quarter time which can’t be blamed solely on sweet

If Soldo wasn't 100% we shouldn't have played him at all.
Why didn't the Muppets send Soldo for surgery last week? Farkin this club is up the shitter.

Brynne Teakle dominating hitouts in WAFL being put forward for mid season draft by west observers.
Mid season draft can’t come quick enough.
Wait is McKenzie still on our list?
Butters didnt have a clearance in the first quarter (same for Sweet, Rozee, Drew, Wines), it was all intercept rebound stuff. Sweet got destroyed from the first bounce.
At end second quarter the Collingwood players imo were looking at each other and almost smirking as they went in for the break. Our players cannot turn that moment around except by responding strongly this week Our captain needs too lead this.

if, if, if he carried a knee injury he would not have been able to jump.
I for one am glad we are bringing in new rucks; who knows maybe Dante in an inclusions for this week.
Our fitness staff and medicos along with a coach being ok with playing husks has been a joke for years.
It's meaningless against St. Kilda

How has this 26 year old dropped below that 24 year old's level on this board.
Give the 26 year old kid a chance!

They also proved it to a national audience.
The criticism levelled at Hinkley and the team's way is long overdue.
In all seriousness I need to see more than one game before I put a line through Sweet hopefully he'll adapt a bit with a few games, his ruck work just needs to be adequate I basically don't care if he doesn't touch the ball away from ruck contests.
On another note it's probably crazy that people/media think a new look defence is gonna gel in one season, it's a work in progress with one being a dopey project KPD.

Another Hinkley special. The clueless swindler gets worse by the day.

I actually think Sweets tap work is ok.
I don't know that he has a huge presence in terms of a big body, or great positioning beyond that.
Willing to give him a go beyond one game before I bang into him.
Lots of things worry me about our defence in particular, AA two touch hands, his and Rats positioning, smalls aren't great defenders of smalls, Farrell is not a natural defender although better this year.
What worries me the most defensively though is we almost exclusively are reactive.
It's like it's stick to the game plan exclusively and forget to football. So many times the footy brain says do X and our players do Y.

Soldo out for q month it seems.
Will have arthroscopic surgery tomorrow after damaging a lateral meniscus in his left knee last week.
Sweet (FA?) is what we have to lead our ruck for the month of May.

And the learnings of how we fold up show and wilt will take a while to undo I fear.
A change in coach will atleast out a new edge in the place, that’s the problem, it’s all so dull and steady as she goes.

I’ll make tears from your Wines.
I know what it is, it’s ****ing shit is what it is.

Looks like there will be another AO game with no extra trains.
hinkley coaches for one thing and that is to save his own rear end its been happening all along. This club is an absolute joke for not getting rid of him years ago. I've been calling for his sacking for seven plus years.
