We switched the ball on 2 occasions when we had even numbers then switched back to the same side and kicked long to worse congestion than was there before.
We just have a lot of stupid players who don't know what to do.

Need to try Dow and Fogarty in the forward line - these three amigos not very good.

Talls and midfield had a good game. Ground ball players forward line and defence - couldnt put on score board pressure.
I know alot of blame is going to be put on players that missed shots on goal. But at least they are getting in positions to impact the scoreboard - its the players that are not getting in positions at all is the problem

Our midfield didn't have a good game.

Sad but true that 😔

We also haven't had a run with our best 22 for years now. Yet other teams repeatedly have healthy lists. Whilst many other issues need addressing, none will pay dividends without a healthy list. Continuously robbing Peter to pay Paul doesn't work.
Agree but we turn to a turd real fast when we lose key soldiers. Other teams like Essendon Saints pies etc seem to alter things they change their gameplan and even with players out those teams are still hard to beat.

We rely on individual brilliance with key players having massive games and that getting us over the line rather than an even spread who play smart to a style that gets the job done.

We have no system and no brand despite having a very strong list imo.

When was the last strong win without big games from our stars?

We won every stat convincingly except
I50s (-4)
Stoppage Clearnances (-4)
Tackles I50 (-2)

Disposals +86
Marks +39
Contested Marks +6
Contested Possession +20
Frees +6
HOs +6
Centre Clearances +4
And yet we lose by 4 goals. Two goals in an entire half of footy with a forward line consisting of the last two Coleman Medalists is an abomination.

I thought they were terrific today. At their butal best.
Pinot, they had lots of possessions but they were ineffective or inefficient.

We got plenty of ball, just used it poorly. And I thought we got the rub of the green with a few soft frees. Just seem disconnected, unsure and scrubby at the moment.

Disagree - they were 77% efficient.  Thats very high. They beat up their opponent on the inside and outside.

They did their job.

Small forwards are no good I'm afraid and need to try some other players.

No they didn’t. Which one of them pushed forward and slotted a goal at a crucial time?

We lose to these “St Kildas” every year because some unheralded up and comer with a bad haircut has a breakout game and kicks 3 or 4 goals which ultimately proves the difference.

The switch plan is supposed to happen quickly. They were Constantly slowing it down - why?

The bomb into f50 is so consistently used that it doesn’t work. And we had no one at the fall. It was an extremely frustrating game to watch.

Read again what someone said earlier - this team consists of;

Reigning Brownlow medallist
Reigning Coleman medallist
Previous year Coleman medallist

Absolutely crapful display of coaching out there and skills from the boys also crapful.

Yep been saying it for years. We have the dumbest collection of footballers in the game.
