Eli subbed out, savage in. Poor kid, really wish he was rested this week.

Thank God for Joey, Lenny and Geary.

Hopeless - pathetic turnovers, no pressure, no run, no spark.

Should be 8 goals down.

Played better against Adelaide and GWS in the NAB

waiting for it to happen. Dumb mistakes, dumb decisions. Second to the ball, not running in numbers. We look not interested. Big chance for richo to show his colours and turn the mood of this group around. Lions came to play and we have not... yet

Loved jones telling billings to take the set shot and not look for the pass.

Reminds me of when we played in Tassie. Nothing goes right and it looks like we dont want to be there. Cant believe we are only 2 goals down.

Lack intensity. Playing like we did against Adelaide. Brisbane bought in 5 experienced players and are showing us how to play with intensity.
This is what happens with teams like us, can be very hot and cold.


Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

We used to struggle when we played in Tassie, why should NZ be any different ?

It's only quarter time, still a lot of footy to go, it's not over yet.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Need to check our boots, too many players not keeping their feet.


Stats wise not a disaster need to improve efficiency and intensity.

Look all I want is effort.

Effort against the Lions means we win, effort against Essendon or WCE means we may win.

I dont care for the result but the effort is just not there

I also thought it was time for Eli to take a break. Hard at t generally but didn't accrue much last week. Needed the one week break.

48% efficiency is pretty awful. Needs improvement.

Brisbane was always going to be a danger game. Beat us comprehensively last year and brought in many of the those players into their side who did the damage last year. And they're doing it again.

Need to find another target other than Nick given the disposal wont help him while playing 2 players.


Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.

You need to protect the ball handler to increase posession efficiency

Very frustrating watching us take it to a decent side, beat them then come out a week later and play insipid footy against the bottom team that is yet to win a game all season.

Not helping enough with getting the clearances though. Some changes required around the contest. Mostly with effort.

someone has to do something about Zorko and Raines. Both damaging and creating.
