After galloping out to a 39 point lead at quarter time, the Eagles actually outscored us for the remainder of the match.

Please explain.

Two goals after half time.

It has to be a coaching instruction surely to go from moving the ball swiftly by hand and forward movement to chip  mark, chip mark ?

If voss is getting cheesed off by it something isnt going the way it should.  To be fair, we were walking through tackles first quarter.

We clearly changed what we were doing after quarter time.

Our structure fell apart for a bit there when Charlie first went off too, and a lot of players weren't getting near the ball. 

It seemed deliberate but I cant help but wonder if certain running patterns weren't being run which meant the ball was stuck at half back due to lack of options and them being covered.

Positives
- Win away
- Motlop still building
- Youngsters showing something
- TDK solid

Negatives
- TDK solid
- Played 1q well, poor thereafter
- Wildly inconsistent
- Consistently unconvincing
- Turn overs
- i50 efficiency and goalkicking
- Injuries prevail again 🤞

So much work to do. Can see us bottom 6 whilst others progress nicely

Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success.

When we play slow - whether our intention or forced by opposition moves - we are terrible. We try to wind down the clock but can’t hit targets enough to wind down the clock and advance to our F50. The second half was shocking footy to watch.  I get we had injuries but we’re talking WC here 🤦🏻‍♀️

Durds didn’t do much when he came on, acres continually gets caught trying to do too much, Cripps was well held, Hewitt was great for a while but then I didn’t notice him. Doch still looks a little behind the pace.

Ollie was good, Saad okay, McG amazingly pretty good.

I don’t know what else to think of that game, so odd.

Here’s a game plan..
Mark.
Stop.
Wait an eternity to assess options and when “play-on” called take kick under pressure.
Kick to a target kind-of on their own, kick to where they are, not where they could be if they moved away from their opponent, and give the ball lots of hang time so that perhaps 2 other opponents as well can get there to spoil or outmark.
Turnover.

It seems that IS the game plan

I reckon Weitering is either carrying an injury or has seriously devolved.

His 2 games, either side of the bye, were as poor as I can recall and this week wasn't much better.
He is completely lacking any serious acceleration.
He seems far less mobile and unable to elevate himself off the ground to get the same dynamic defensive punches and/or overhead marks that were his greatest weapons.
His kicking has deteriorated so much that he rarely finds a teammate unless that teammate is standing alone in a paddock.
Part of the problem with his kicking is that he is commonly standing flat-footed and lacks the mobility to kick through the ball - hence he regularly puts too much air under the ball and/or simply kicks it aimlessly as far as he can, which is not all that far these days.

We are exactly where we are. A mid table team.

We waited 10 plus years of crap to build a middle of the road team.

So many of the list just stay where they are many have stagnated or gone backwards and the kids get a tad better but never really come on to the point where they can influence a game.

Unless they do a fixture where we play WC and North 6 each we arent making finals with this list.

while i agree Weiters has had a few off weeks the very fact we are critiquing him is so sad - kinda means this list is potentially cooked. The bloke was our rock when all
around him was crumbling and now our sh1te culture has even gone thru to him. The one guy i thought would be immune. its bl00ldy sad.

I suspect he is carrying an injury that seriously reduces his mobility - that would be the better of the two cases.

I think it was against the Giants.
Weiters was jumping and his quad connected with a Giants player (possibly his face?? I cant recall exactly). Was limping around for a bit at the time. Never looked right since then.

Reckon it's a bad corky which would hamper him as you described above.

Honestly, all our A-graders have been sub par. It's our b and c graders that are standing up and covering....including some kids like carroll coming from nowhere.
Remembering we felisted him last year without having played a game in his years in the list.
He's played 8 so far this year.

It's probably time for the club to offer a half-membership.
Members and supporters are only getting half a game. :(
