I thought Kerridge started off OK on Sunday but by early 2Q he was back to his old self. He's not really someone to be canvassed as a solution to any of out problems - in fact he is one of our problems.

Hope he can bring those insights to us and is strong enough to make a positive difference in our environment then.

When I see half a dozen players run out in long sleeves, presumably because it's cold, that tells me that they're probably not of a mindset to endure the pain that's necessary to win. Think about that.

Kerridge is a bit part mid who kicked a couple of bags of five goals for a talented Crows team but thats about his only claim to fame...I'd be playing kids like Cuningham, Polson ahead of him and delisting him at years end.....

The coach too. He, if we forget, has been very successful and cone out of the best coaching school we have ever seen at league level.

The press conference was good from Bolton. There was none of the forget about it and move on stuff. He said the players must dwell on this loss and learn from it. Its the essence if team sport turn around. Stand fast board. Bolton is the coach we need and have.

All those problems occur on the outside, put him in the guts in a negating role and tell him his career depends on matching Geelong physically. He's more than capable.

Yep it does.
We are weak as piss. Literally, and have been for years.
We papered over the cracks with Judd who was as tough as they come.
Now we are going to crucify Cripps in the same way we did Judd.

You are almost correct, the game is WON by big strong fit men.
We have thrown too many kids in at once. They need strong leaders to look after them and show them the way.

Jones is a small part of this. He is 6'5" or bigger, athletically as capable as anyone playing but just doesn't impact the contest enough.
When he does he looks great but if he gets a bag kicked on him every 2-3 weeks its pointless.

They will improve drastically with E Curnow back because he adds toughness, but why not put Kerridge in there to bash and crash. It's not like he has silky skills we need to protect.

Kerridge isnt as good as the Cats second stringers like Duncan, Guthrie, Menegola........
If you look at our onballers two things stand out.....very slow and poor kicking.......

We wont get anywhere negating either IMO....Ed is enough, we need more creative players who can help us score.....

I don't think that he is.
He fumbles under pressure and has a copybook kicking action but sprays the ball around, I don't think that he has the mental toughness to perform consistently at the top level.

Agree but or these kids will get smashed off the park.
We need mature bodies around the contest.
Makes no sense playing him on a wing or flank.
