Inside 50s mean nothing if the ball comes back out faster than it went in.......

Our biggest weakness is getting caught on the slingshot, and it happens more times than I care to remember.

The level of F50 pressure is pathetic - only Fogarty and sometimes Owies actually give anything in this area.  The rest trot around and admire the opposition defenders' rebounding skills.  The defensive unit must be pulling their hair out when they see that.

I think a fit Durdin has promise, but Fantasia is past it (we did get him cheap though, was worth a shot) and Motlop continues to underwhelm.

Thought it might have been the best game from Lewis Young - or was it just that most of the rest were very poor?

Yep fell into the team due to lack of numbers and didnt really earn it.
Did show a bit though and the talent is there we just need to see some consistency..

Seriously don't think Moir will be out of the side much next year

I may have missed a comment in this thread however one player who seems to have escaped scrutiny is Elijah Hollands.

He’s been ok over the H&A rounds, however he is painfully slow across the ground and often takes too long to dispose of the ball. And, when the heat was on in the first half he was miles off the pace - I’m not convinced at all.

He’s also yet another player that just doesn’t present like an AFL footballer who has done the work in the gym - you can also add Fantasia, Oliver Hollands, Young and to a lesser extent McGovern & Newman to that list.

The new fitness bloke from the swans is going to have a laugh when he sees our crew.

You just want pit out and find reasons to make it happen.

Honestly don't mind Kennedy getting subbed off.
He is essentially playing the same role as tdk. Ruck/forward.

If we want a spark Kennedy isn't going to provide it. He is too slow for Brisbane
As bad as they have been our small forwards are more likely to provide a spark and kick a random goal.

Also Kennedy just had a kid in the last 24/48 hours so he may be a bit tired/distracted.

We’ll win this

Perhaps we should have had some extra mids to give us time up the ground so we had more time to deliver properly.
No team needs 4 small forwards....especially our 4.
