The Roos just seem to play for frees every time they're near the ball. Frustrating the hell out of me.
McEvoy taking some big marks.

Same old. Get a lead and instead of playing the same way that got us the lead we go ultra defensive and win/lose in a close one.

But some of his tactics drive me crazy. Trying to choke up games, playing ultra defensive footy, not letting them play with natural flair kills us. With GT it was "we will score heavily, try and out score us" and we did score heavily, now we have the mentality of "we will stop you scoring, it will be low scoring, but we will back us in to just get up"
I don't think you have a clue about which plays in which contexts are Lyon's tactics and which are the players losing their heads.
"... You want to pose a threat to the opposition in as many ways as you can, both defensively and offensively. We've got a responsibility to explore all those possibilities - and we will."

Dawson's as bad a player I've seen at this club, and there's been plenty.

Gee your harsh on Zac, played well I thought....he gets the unfair rub I from the umpires I reckon.
Petrie has been the guy, and with Zac and help, he only kicked 2

Saints kicked 10 goals in the first half, 2 in the second (none in the last).
A wins a win but geez we consistently make it difficult.

Lynch went out of the game after half time. Gram despite turning it over and shirking the odd contest did a good defensive job on Thomas.
