Match thread v Giants

[suss]

I'm enjoying this umpiring.

Anyone know where I can get a new TV?

[Grimfang]

They're getting rewarded for ducking into tackles. When they get tackled, they get an eternity to get rid of it. And every possible call is going their way.

[magnifisaint]

Blatantly obvious there is an umpiring conspiracy against Schnieder

[bigred]

This is our worst half of the year.

Absolutely pathetic by foot.

Not good enough. Not good enough at all.

[Grimfang]

And now they make up a free kick to gift the GWS another one.

[dragit]

Farout, this is supposedly us at full-strength, getting absolutely flogged by a middling side that has been struggling for a while.

He should be in the twos, different umpires there and standard of footy is lower - he will fit in.

Geary gets out marked by a first year pigmy. What does he offer.
Slow, terrible skills and even worse decision making.

We will never be any good until he is not in our best 22!

[jonesy]

Sub Ross off at halftime for Ray . Doesn't get the ball, which is not ideal for a slow midfielder

Yes pretty ordinary at the moment, 3 touches in a half is not going to get it done.

What an awful half of football. Horrendous kicking skills and equally bad umpiring to boot

[magnifisaint]

I think Ross will get subbed. Going as well as the Australian cricket team

[Playon]

Far out I reckon I could get a game at the saints today. Terrible.

[gringo]

Amazingly are still in it if we decide to play. They aren't outstanding and we are flat. Really reminds me of the dogs game with a bit of a sniff still.

[whiskers3614]

I reckon Shaw said " GF replay " to Riewoldt instead of chewy on your boot!
Not our day!

[Griggsy]

This is our worst half of the year.

Was gonna say the exact same thing, that was amature hour.

[ShanghaiSaint]

kicking has been shocking.

GWS flooding defense

BS Ross and Dunstan have been very average along with others but as midfielders go we will be always an average side if these 2 slow players are considered best 22.
Would have to improve 1000%

[8856brother]

People thinking the umpires are the issue are deluded. It's right there in front of you. We haven't turned up to play today. We are awful atm, but so were the dogs last night at the same point.

God forbid, we may have got ahead of ourselves. That half hopefully will be a wake up call.

[Bunk_Moreland]

Our disposal is appalling.

We really are killing ourselves.

Umpires very inconsistent. Soft free kicks in our forward half, ignoring arm chops and blocks in our forward half.

Really we need to get back to the pressure we ave been putting on teams.

We need to stop the incredibly bad turnovers.

Will cop a loss but not with this performance.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Well, we're not use to playing in front of a 90% empty stadium that holds 25,000 people. One wonders how much money the AFL is pouring into this black hole of a club. Hope they get a final and less than 10,000 people show up. Team should have gone to Tasmania where they actually want a team.

[Milne]

You'd think when "bomb it long to Bruce" doesn't work for the 11th time you change your tactics.

Want to see a big second half from the boys, even if we don't win it.

[Jacks Back]

While the cause of us being behind has everything to do with us playing badly, the free kick count is 6-12 at half time their way. We are getting nothing and they are getting almost everything.

[Freebird]

Don't have to be deluded to see how they're getting a good run...but we are terrible
