We have no outside runners and no forwards. Good on the inside, esp. Cripps.

Our basic skill level is atrocious.

The problem is probably to do with all of our forwards being sucked out into the midfield and backline to try to help out and then when we get it forward you've got Levi one on 4.

Mick would drop him after a game like that BTW.

Cripps 16 possies 12 contested. Imagine he wasn't out there? Clearly captaincy material.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

It was never going to be easy. Really happy we have matched and entire game tackle score in half a match so far. Especially against close to the best side in the AFL on their ground. Missing Judd, Murphy and Gibbs. Lets take their best 3 mids out for half a game and see how they play. Big difference in the score but a way better attempt by us so far. Take the game on and run as a group in the second half guys.

Booing Goodes is stupid... the footy media are going to overlook the obvious and accuse Carlton supporters of being racist.  The last thing this club needs right now.

But it is good fun to boo our Juddy?

Nick Graham needs to greatly improve his core strength because he gets knocked of the ball far too easily. 
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

The umpires have given us nothing but we're getting spanked anyway, Sydney are just too slick and have some forwards.
Cripps is a real talent and I've been pleased with Graham, Simmo probably our best so far.
Curnow is sloppy and Bell's made some uncharacteristic mistakes, Jones is beyond bad, it's time we cut our losses with him.
Probably about a 12 or 14 goal loss coming up, which is about what most of us would have expected against a top side missing our three best players.
good summary Rowe is doing OK

4 quarters of that would be good.

Yes.  Absolutely.  He stands up and won't take crap.  I hope though they don't think about it for next year.  Let him develop.

If the clown Jones could hold a mark we would be a lot closer.

What Graham has done is good but nowhere near enough of it.

He's become our best defender.  Which is frightening if you think about it.  But he's been excellent on Franklin.

I'd switch White up forward and play Hendo back.  He doesn't want to mark the ball so might as well force him to punch it.
