Our only way forward is either a 40m kick backwards to switch it or a bomb down the line

We have no movement through the middle of the ground

Maybe he could actually present as a key forward

Instead of lurking around behind his opponent

Trying to play Jack in the pack

He is one of the lowest ranked players on the ground- again

We just have players in our midfield who are too slow - and they cannot be deployed elsewhere

And they do not contribute by first possession and feed to those who do have run

Instead we laud their tackle count

Hawthorn on the other hand are running is ragged a treat - only a handful of players contributing to a scoreboard which does not reflect what is happening on the field

We are such a ‘safe’ team with the footy

No dare, no run, no intent to take a risk and score

Except for Wilson I think we have seen enough of the 18yos

Time to get in Dow / Jones ..... just any experience

Can someone remind me what was wrong with Ratten’s style of coaching?

It must have been worse that what we’re seeing today but I can’t remember why.

Windhager has tried hard but I don’t recall one disposal not straight to the Orcs. He’s not alone either.

Maybe they should swap the assistant coaches around?

Rare to see a handball hit a target let alone a kick. Horrible to watch

How typical, we can't kick a goal, and they go forward and get an easy one.
We have the dumbest footballers in the competition.
Our forward line sucks, King is the most over rated player in the competition.
