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.

Our chances of getting any established stars would be about zero now - who would want to come to us - more importantly, who would want to stay??

Hard to watch and basically not acceptable.

Polsen, Lamb ain’t up to it. Weitering and Jones putrid.

We’re carrying so many tonight - SPS, Dow, Garlett, Fisher, Murphy (MIA) the list goes on. Horrible

Our mid field has not one player that can sprint hard from a contest. Murphy can’t do it anymore and there is no one behind him capable.

Dow as an early pick just adds to this problem - he also only has one gear.

Getting smashed on the outside by an average team with a heap of injuries.

Uncontested possession count?

We can't keep possession of the ball, so getting smashed.

Thats 1 part, midfielders fault
1 part lack of forward setup
1 part inexperience

This is a coaching issue I'm afraid. How many more promising guys do we we have to burn up?

Ha.    That 2 of our best players tonight.

Trade them like Gibbs and bring in a 18 year kid.   Should improve things.

The Jones experiment is likely at the end game. He is exposed, but is being too easily exploited.

Drop Weitering and Jones.
Bring in Rowe and A. Silvagni.

Problem solved.

Weitering is shot, letting that nobody spud Crocker give it you isnt acceptable, hit back, do something just dont stand there being submissive.....
Get Rowe and ACOS back in this team because its insipid without our players flying the flag...

Kade Simpson can hold his head up.....contests and gives it back...

Every team gets a 1st round pick, every year.

If you want to overtake teams, you need extra 1st round picks and top end talent.

How do you get top end talent and extra picks....sell off players that are coming to the end of their used by date. Short term pain for long term gain.
Never had an issue with Gibbs, nor the Gibbs trade.

Without doing that, how do you propose we jump up the ladder?

Posted same....bring in two players who can stand up and not be bullied...I'd have OShea back in as well....Mullet is invisible out there and useless IMO...

Which two? Jones and Weitering?

They can play but they are absolutely putrid tonight and Weitering is sooooo slow
