Weller needs to be dropped. Too one dimensial as a small forward.

We look, and it is probably fair to say are, so impotent! We really lack weapons...players who consistently and reliably hurt the opposition.

Whom do we have? Gresham, Riewoldt.

Backline holding up really well, I agree with BigMart

both backlines enjoying the crap delivery, making them look like superstars. this game will come down to forward fifty delivery...and bloody goal kicking!

Acres get points for really trying to crack things open when he's near the pill. Just needs to tidy up

Why can't he go into the middle?

Is it something that he's working on? Or is he happy just being an inbetweener?

Few points from the first half
- Defence has been excellent, Geary and Roberton have been huge whilst Carlisle is getting better every week
- Goal kicking awful again, guys like Lonie shouldn't be in the team if they can't nail it from 25m straight in front
- Billings low on confidence, getting more of the ball but needs to be better
- Roo quiet but big second half coming up
- If we kick straight will win this

Yes, Brown has been good

Long, Lonie, Gresham 4 possessions each... lowest ranked players on the ground
Only Long has laid a tackle

Need to focus on clearances

Dunstan passing to Billings in no better position. Opposite of last week but same result. These guys and McCartin too, need to back themselves.

Acres showing potential bigunit ..One day he will click and dominate . Better value than some higher draft picks.

Kicking again costing us. Glad we started to put together better passages of play in the latter parts of the second quarter.

Good summary. Defenders have been excellent. If we can just tighten up on the scoring shots ....

Weller. Membrey. Lonie. Forward line a worry. Bruce lifted. Gresh quiet but gets some allowance. Acres has a go - will iron out kinks. Too will lift. Reckon Billings has been better but could be hope.
