Having said that if we had of kicked straight we would have won comfortably.

We have a lot of players out of form who cant match the pace of the game at this time in the season - Jones, Baker, Blake, Ray, Gilbert and Clarke. Gwlit and Goddard always seem to struggle against quicker opponents also.

On current form Essendoin will beat us by 10 goals...
Ray, Baker, Dempster and Clarke are flat, as a matter of fact I would get Clark out of the backline ASAP.

time to play the kids more than ever.

baker has to stop being given games. he's +30 ffs, this is his last year. we need to give his replacement game time.

hayes looks gorn for a considerable amount of time, so time has come to give his replacement games.

gilbert is not a forward, neither is blake. so stop playing them forward ffs.

archer did ok on debut, nothing to write home about though.

mcevoy is developing nicely. what were the hit out stats.

gram has improved. peake was missing.

Saints 41 hitouts vs. Tigers 35, however ours were spread across 8 players, theirs only 4. In terms of McEvoy vs. Angus Graham, it was Big Mac 26 vs Graham 30. I'm not overly impressed with that because Graham is pretty poor.

Yes we played like s***. yes we could have easily f****** won if we'd kicked straight. But i am absolutely not holding back on this.... the umpiring in that last quarter was an absolute f****** farce. Simple. A FARCE. Some payed for them, not payed for us. That is a f****** bulls*** joke.
