5 goals for a half is FVCKED
King’s been good
He’s building and trying. I’ll give him that. If he kicked that goal I would have said we won because his confidence would sky rocket.

Marshall has been good at ground
He doesn’t have enough friends
Think Dow will be ok
It’s all just entry into 50 …there’s no lowering eyes, finding a free it’s all bomb
Sharman got loose once …missed
The mids could lower their eyes more I guess. But I'm not sure that there would be a lot to aim at if they did. The structure up forward is chaotic.

Can’t disagree with any of the above.

I feel another close heart breaking loss coming up.

Tough to watch

We need some tougher bodies without the fumbles

Feel like there’s a lack of connection or poise. How often do we kick or handball it to places teammates aren’t, or handball to teammates immediately under pressure. Frustrating to see this week in week out

Seems to me that the game is being lost in the middle.

Marshall is the leading possession getter on the ground with 19… the next 7 are Freo players with Bonner #9 with 12

Need to get some ball

Can't be heartbreaking if you go into the game with very low expectations!

Something we will have to put up with this year re midfield will have to be top priority at the table next year

Caminiti does a lot of work with Wheadon on his set shots at training, still hasn't made any difference.

Maybe it'll turn.

We are lucky they have missed quite a few gettable shots.
