Im tired of rose colored glasses. Voss has been a little unlucky with injuries and Elijah being a disappointment as he is exactly what we need right now. Can't put that on Voss. But Voss is far to stringent in his ways to loosen the group up to play more freely - you cant have Fogarty and Lord delivering majority of ball inside 50 when we have better kicks and fails to be brave. Top bloke and want him at the club - taking over Lloyds job preferably. But a damn crap tactical coach.
All I want for Christmas are two half forwards that can spot a player on the lead and hit the target.
We actually have a few - Cottrell, Smith, E Hollands, Young.
It's true injuries/rehab have killed us in this part of the game.. but still no excuse to not persist with others in this critical role. Boyd, Carroll, Moir are good kicks of the football... there is no excuse kicking the can down the road and not trying to fill this important role despite players missing.
Its's been happening all year and not just this year with zero improvement - the complete collapse is nothing short on remarkable - heart, desire, system.. it's just not there.
Meh senior players are decent - the systematic method of moving the ball in the forward half is dead set dog poo. The we leave the back half wide open on turn over pending on tackles inside 50 instead of a lead up. Its just a rubbish game plan forward of 50.
This isnt a development squad - this is a squad at their peak and under performing.... losing almost every week. Players probably sick of Voss's voice because literally nothing is working we have been a complete rabble since round 1.
Actually complete rabble since this time last year
List needs to be semi nuked. Cripps to WCE - too many slow players in the midfield and WCE will pay up McKay to Melbourne/Sydney/Brisbane - is becoming more blatant by the day Motlop and Kemp trade TDK - trade Docherty, Evans, White, Fantasia, McGovern, Cincotta - delist
Need as many future picks (2026) as possible before Tasmania
