The Treloar/Sidebottom move to FF has thrown Bolton completely, Pies did the same move last week vs GWS, obviously we did no scouting at all, cant compete when the the coach cant find the right matchups....
Pies are intimidating us too...too many boys in our team.....

Why do we have Liam Jones playing on Treloar, and Plowman playing on Reid?

Multiple times i've seen this, so its not a matter of zoning off.

EDIT: and now treloar has gone into the guts, so Jones is matched up on Sidebottom!
WTF?!

Outcoached, no scouting from last week...same move by Buckley vs GWS...

The good news is how good are we for 5 mins in the first quarter at the G?

Gee we are in real trouble this Year already.

I can’t think what can turn it around? How many players do you have to turn over to be competitive?  Am losing spirit this season already - I fear the blowtorch might come on B.B. very quickly now

Yep. We are all at sea! Poor skills execution and our zone defence is just not working - players are just confused and do not know what to do or where to go. A loooong year ahead. Feel like just taking the year off atm!!  :(

Reality always wins in the end.

13 players yet to lay a single tackle 1 minute before half time. There’s something seriously wrong. We are an absolute rabble.

We've recruited players that have shown that can play, we've seen that the last two years but when the effort is so poor it's doesn't matter who's out there. Very disappointing. 16 years, bar a patch between 2008-11 and other odd flashes, we have been so uncommitted to the task with a poor, on-field culture.

We never had anyone in out backline to stop their average small forwards...so putting gun mids down there was a smart move. A move that we should've been prepared for given they did it last week.

Another failure to pick a side to match the opposition. That is 3 from 3.

Slow learner.

We can (but won't) still win the game from here, but it won't change the fact we didn't pick a side giving our best chance of winning.

Our midfield is full of children that are brushed aside.  Few can tackle and the skills are lacking.  Is the depth so lacking that we play Dow who is not at all ready?
The Jones experiment is likely at the end game. He is exposed, but is being too easily exploited.
Grundy is dominating kreuzer.

All a bit grim.

Poorly coached, soft and when you see how many players are unmanned you know the players are not committed and there is zero leadership.....
