I don't think Sam Gilbert is a forward full stop. He needs to play on the back line where he can get that run forward. Not Sam's night last night.

Siposs, Johnson, Kosi, you know one of those guys who usually play forward.

Siposs, Johnson maybe down the track ... but we need one now.

Or we could just rely on Riewoldt and Milne to kick us winning scores :roll: Predictable not.

yes he has the ability, but clearly not the heart for it.

Gilbert isn't even close to being a forward.

Hell, he's playing so badly but what can we do?

He should be banned from his sidestep - now works one in five goes? Makes him so slow to drop the ball to his boot.

He's been worked out by the opposition, too, who constantly force him onto his wrong side.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

He needs to go back to the 2's for some confidence. He would be an embarrassment against Geelong.

Do you actually watch games DS?


"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'
