Surely Gibbo should be axed this week, hasn't added to the goal tally which is his spot currently, why hasn't he had mins in the midfield? Who replaces him? poulsen? Don't think so, we don't really have a small forward who scores, Wright in the last few yrs was the best option,

Ironically, the only one showing any passion is Daisy imo,

I saw no passion, intensity or spirit for the game from numerous players who have been gifted games not earning them. Played like a bunch of kids who have won junior b&fs but now it’s tough panic and can’t kick or handball

Problem I see is that Gibbons isn't a small forward. He's a small mid.

We played 2 patches of good footy - 10mins at the start of the 2nd and 10 mins at the start of the third. In that time we kicked 5 of our 8 goals. For the other 60mins it was largely a mess of skill errors and lack of poise. We have so many dumb footballers and have done for years and years. When the pressure came on in the last quarter we wilted as we always do.

I can't see how Bolton can keep his job next year. 4 games in and we are rock bottom on the ladder again. You can't sugar coat the fact that we can't score, and cant play anything more than the 10-15 mins of AFL standard football before we start to look like a VFL team.

Here a great stat from today - they had 96 marks in total for the day. 71 of those came from our kicks. 3 out of 4 of their marks came from intercepts!

Problem I see is that Gibbons isn't a small forward. He's a small mid. Play him in position and see what he brings. Without someone like Pickett (who I think could improve defensively and be a headache) or ??LeBois improving, I'd try Murphy. We seem without many options there. Polson is good defensively but doesn't pressure the scoreboard. I guess, although not small, JSOS might be a good option.

Then Bolton get a 1 week reprieve, until the next loss, and then it's on again. Both teams were shocking. Is Dew also a problem ?

Bolton is responsible. Might not be his fault but he is responsible. His time is up.

Need to look to the future before we burn another generation of first round picks.

Yep we were deplorable. 

I still don't see how the coach is at fault for our entire team kicking it to Gibbons in one on one contests in forward 50.

Before anyone says otherwise, even superman cripps did it, when he had weitering standing right next to him in case of a hand off.

Mick Malthouse is not coming back, not matter what!

Loved how he was 1 on 1 on Sexton in the backline. Stood there and watching him run for the ball, collect it and snap it over daisy's head.
