What a poor hit to the top of square
Surely, there should be some sort of signal for that.
It's also terrible awareness from our joke of forwards.

Do something Rossco. Be accountable

If you have guys in there at centre bounce attendances more worried about their opponents, them mix it up. Stop being defensive

How many centre bounces do you think Dow and Clark and Henry have been involved in?

Zero in the first half.
The only thing he can do is switch ruck
Marshall is our most dangerous forward today
So let’s sub out his relief so he can no longer play forward

But hey what do I know, clearly we have some brilliant tacticians at work

I think King just doesn’t fit into the Ross game style.

Either utilise him or move him on while he’s still got currency.
I don’t know if it’s King or the forwards in general. Other than Higgins… no one has flourished
Who are big power forwards that have flourished under Lyon except for Hall of Famers like Riewoldt and Pavlich?
Yet Marshall can kick 3?

King needs to f kn lead he refuses to

Sandy kicked 5 goals in the last quarter, lost by 15 points.

Looks like Heath played a good game, 28 hit outs.

Pou and Garcia some of the better players.


Season 2024 is where RTB is showing the footy world his grasp of the modern game. :shock:

The thing with King he never looks fit , doesn’t seem to be able to lead or chase , yes today has been another lesson the forwards appear on tv anyway that they’re spreading out and Marshall is leading and the ball has been delivered. So Harvey as forward coach has either finally made changes or lack of height by port has helped.

Apparently Stanley left the game (I think around 3/4 time), so Heath had a dominant final term in the ruck and kicked a goal

But was doing reasonably well stats wise vs Stanley when I checked earlier in the game.

Was far too obvious. Getting rammed in the back after marking was similar.

Would have thought we would keep campbell on and sub cammo out as he looked like he hurt his ankle and also kept Marshall down forward

Are we really kidding ourselves that Jack Steele is any kind of Captain. His body language at the ground is absolutely f****** shithouse. Complete opposite of inspiring.

He’s got one job - stop JHF. Port are cooked without him. And he can’t even do that.

Happy with a 2nd rounder for him .. 👎🏼

Why don’t the coaches hold him accountable if he’s refusing to do as instructed?

That’s right Ross doesn’t have a lot of choices, our centre clearance problem is solely due to being out rucked atm

Our four permanent forwards, King, Owens, Higgins and Butler have not kicked a goal between them to 3/4 time.

Why did we bring in Dow onto our list?

He's supposed to be helping us in the centre. How the truck can he do that when you don't even give him a shot at centre bounce attendance?

In 3 quarters of footy Dow has had zero ctre bounce attendances

Ross wants his number 1 defensive taggers in there every effing time. What's the point. You're feeding the opposition ENERGY. You're telling them we want to tag.

What about changing the focus to 'let's win first use'

Have a look at Jack Steele out there. He looks disinterested. He's a shadow of the player he was under Ratts
