Not only has he lost on selection, but he has lost on game day coaching. Doing nothing to counter the lions.

Looked like a flat team that was playing its 3rd game in 12 days

It’s literally our worst performance for 5 years, I don’t buy any excuse for this one.

So why would our last quarter be the best quarter?
It's been 7 days since our last game. No excuses, we picked a shit team and got what we deserved

junk time
I wouldn't buy into anything that happened when the heat went out of the game

Digging into the why
3 games in 12 days is pretty standard. Not much of an excuse.
Brisbane with two extra days rest in that period. Wowsers.

7 days between our games, lions went home and came back I really don't think we can cry about time

Not crying. Just pointing out facts. 3 games in 12 days (two in SA), not surprised that they looked flat
Couple that with the fact they were playing a bloody good team with their backs against the wall, the result doesn't surprise me and doesn't bother me too much either

Eh belted by 2 top 8 teams from last year already. The 12 days is a pretty weak excuse. Doesn't have anything to do with picking a shit forward line and playing an underdone chubby Oliver.

Cant blame that loss on the forward line tbf
Midfield was smashed, that's where the game was lost

Absolutely can, lion's walked it out of defence all night and we didn't win a contest forward of the footy till the last quarter

It was a combination of the two, the forwards couldn't put pressure on outside of the usual guys, Brisbane constantly walking it out of D50 which means the midfield had to run around more. But also, yes, the midfield were ****ing useless. Oliver's lack of effort defensively around stoppage and the ground has nothing to do with his hand, absolute garbage from him in particular, Trac tried playing hero ball, Gawn tried but was ineffective, Viney was meh. As bad a game as you could see from guys taking up 3.5 mill of our cap

Brisbane's pressure absolutely got to us. We beat up on weaker teams for a month and forgot what real intensity looked like.

Even worse cause Richmond look dog shit so brown will probably have 6 disposals and kick 3 and Richmond have no midfield so Clarry will get his 30 with no influence and we'll be vindicated on what we're trying to do still

I’m predicting a loss for this one, but the board will have a big win

I don't see how Goody can lose if both Salem and Brown are forced outs with injury.

Oliver’s form will be the decider, and if we shove Fullarton in and he’s shit.

If Oliver plays like a soft **** like he has lately he needs to be dropped. Last chance to show he is actually committed to playing contested football.

Outcoached comprehensively by Yze would be funny.
