Adelaide, what you've just played is one of the most insanely idiotic things we have ever seen. At no point in your rambling, incoherent performance were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational game plan. Everyone in this forum is now dumber for having witnessed it. We award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
But seriously, Parnell looks good. Hately, Berry and Soligo continue building. Great first half from Fog - the slow game speed allowed him to show his obvious skill.
Matt Crouch literally an obstruction on the field. We can't play all three of Murphy, Rowe and McHenry. Preferably only one. Players onfield with minimal ability to actually shift momentum or stem the flow of a game - still. That's coaching.
West Coast played as bad a first half as I've ever seen.

Rhymes with Furphy?
Or just watch the 1st quarter 4x......

Fog did some good stuff, hopefully he can take some confidence out of the game, apart from that, may we never speak of this game again.
You didn't see his kick across his body on the boundary to Soglio who kick the goal?
Ooooh great. One good play. Keep him in the side for another month.

We need to move VB on if he won't change our midfield

Soligo looks a player, and there was a lot to like about Parnell too. I didn't think Hately had what it took to succeed at the top level but he hasn't put a foot wrong since coming into the side. Fog decent early and has had a nice couple of weeks, the ball was barely in our half in the last quarter. Hopefully it's not a Himmelberg purple patch and he can continue to build on that.
Otherwise, that was just grotesque.

Crouch. We get the results we deserve whilst we continue with this rubbish

We’d be leading the league in kicking behinds then the opposition immediately responds with a goal.
Looking at you Rowe and Murphy.
Behinds are clangers.

I have no doubt he fluke these passes and goals because he always miss the easy routine goal and kick.

Good:
-First qtr. Big men were sticking the marks.
-Fogarty was good. Did his usual blitz of goals and then go silent but at least this is the version that hits the scoreboard.
-Parnell should be happy. Has the footy IQ.
Bad
Ugly
Nicks' reluctance to do anything. You can't sit idle and hope things change. Got away with it because we played a historically bad side. Would've lost that to the kangaroos.
Players played very very complacent footy. That was an opportunity to really put on a show and they squandered it.

- Murphy. Same.

There's a John West ad in there somewhere
That's why I said he "miss the easy goals and passes" like he did today.
