Jones had 14 at qtr time. Give Weller a break. He smothered him that qtr. Wasn't on him in the first.

Weller went to him at 1/4 time. Jones had 14 in the first quarter.

Okay thanks for that guys but Weller our number one stopper and Jones their number one possession winner. Goes to show the coaches don't think sometimes.

His place is all over the head.

Just on Foxtel, I'm sick of them showing replays during live action. For christ sake put the replay or live play in a separate box or something (picture in picture) like ch7 do. Every time every game the same!

Dees winning all the 50 50s and also seagulling on the outside of many contests - we need to get smarter - quite frustrating

Shenton and Ray have to go. Both have cost us goals with rubbish turn overs.

Midefield sound like they are being beaten. Clearances not favourable. Toupas seems to be everywhere ans now scores a goal. Gilbert and Shenton kicking still crap. Kicking out of bounds by Shenton has become a habit weekly.


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

What is going on with Bruce? He doesn't seem to be getting the ball and adding score. Worse still his trademark tackle count is taking a beating. 1 Tackle so far! Needs to get into it.
