I'd sack him regardless.
Will that make him a better player for us? Why not persist?
He's Soft.

Shown zilch the whole season. Attitude problem. Sulks too often. Not AFL standard. Gone.

48% DE would agree with this. Come on Jack, you're better than that.

I know it's not his fault but can Curran actually touch the ball? Put him on he ball.

I can't knock Jack's effort, but his turnovers are terrible and cost us goals- maybe the knock to the head didn't help him earlier. Not impressed with Geary tonight either. Very unhappy to see Siposs not attack a loose ball, would have been an easy possession, instead he stood and watched Selwood bend over and get the ball and set up a goal- not a good sign.

Our younger players have been MIA bigtime tonight.

Has been our most disappointing game for the year.

should have been 50 to dempster not dropping the ball

you cannot be standing inside the 5metres and then make a tackle when the call comes

That's true. That player must remain out of the play, even when play on is called. So much for rules.

Disagree. He's not in the middle, or back. So obviously he's been sent forward. Close to a record low inside 50s. Aint his fault.

just because he is playing forward, doesn't mean he is trapped in our F50...

can still go get some ball, and contribute
