Our list at the start of the year couldn't kick, so a few gutsy wins over terrible opposition hasn't solved these issues. We need to add some class into that midfield in the 24 months otherwise we will be stuck in Death Valley (7th-14th)for a decade like all the other clubs that didn't do a proper rebuild.

Has Dunstan done anything apart from that dreadful turnover? He seems quiet or is it just me

First 2 kicks into the forwards straight to the opposition. Rebound. Goal.

Wally's on MMM go to a score update from Adelaide 1.5minutes into play!! Comes back to game and Tigers have a goal!
Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.
You need to protect the ball handler to increase posession efficiency

Lonie cant kick a goal to save himself.

Poor skills again costing us at least a contest. Half not even pressured. Liked McCartin, thought he was held a couple times in front of goals

Grrrr Bloody turnovers still. No hope of becoming a consistent good side until we do the basics of licking to our players.

We don't don't well on special days or anniversaries do we. Sorry to those involved but we don't pay the respect for these for some reason.

Once again, Push Up has a good comment. No run, no creativity and crowds the defence only.
This needs to change as scoring is a big part of winning the game of footy. Take them on and open up the ground. Run to create opportunity for the team. That's how you have won to date this year + good forward pressure. Contested footy difference is growing.
