So, Weitering would have done no better in your view? Same for Nick Newman?

Do you think Lyon told Stocker there was nothing he could do. Or do you think he’ll tell him what he should do in similar circumstances? Maybe their review sessions aren’t that challenging.

I think Lyon would be more upset with Wood than Stocker and that kicking across the ground was risky and a poor decision.
Reckon Lyon would have been pleased with Stockers game vs such a dangerous opponent and thinking he got himself a bargain and who will Carlton select as a small defender with Docherty out, and Saad with a possible hammy and three high Stkilda quality small forwards to mind next week.

I worry about this game. We either play a competitive brand of football and get over the line, or we get smashed early and never recover. Like we did against the Crows. The game will be decided by half time. I don’t see this as a close result. One side will be blown away. I hope it isn’t us. Not a very good feeling in my stomach. This isn’t a side we have a predictable result easy to see before the first bounce. We don’t have enough goal kicking options. We rely on too few to do too much work.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.

Kennedy, Hewett and to some extent but not so much Cerra are well down on last years output.

Getting no goals from the midfield first five rounds and this needs to change.

So Lyon wouldn’t bother trying to teach a young defender. But at least you concede he would have been upset at Stocker (as this is implied by your thought that he would be more upset at Wood).

If he was upset with Stocker it would be for leaving Elliott to create the option for Wood to make that kick.
Lyon didnt have a great game himself and said he trusted the Saints system and thats why he put no special effort/time into Nick Daicos and 42 possessions later he did admit he would do it different next time so I think Ross wouldnt be pointing the finger too much at any one given he made such a massive blunder.
He did say Steele would play next week and would keep Cripps company and that Membrey would also be available given he played in the twos so I think it wont be an easy game

Pencil in Steele scragging cripps at every opportunity and membrey for 4 goals.

Or he might be upset Stocker didn’t put his body on the line by taking a step towards the ball and into Ginnivan’s path to force Ginnivan to react. I can’t understand why he didn’t.

I'd be testing that collar bone at every opportunity.

Think he thought he was a chance to take the mark, if he advanced the ball would have gone over his head imho....Stocker put his body on the line earlier in the game when he took a mark under some heat so I think Ross would trust Stocker in terms of sacrificing for the team.

Maybe over his head but not over his outstretched hands.

That’s the great thing about Weitering. He doesn’t just commit his body on the odd occasion. He does it every single time.

So would I, but our guys won't do that.
Maybe we could ask Stocker to do it for us🤦🏻
