Simply ran out of legs which leads to mistakes. Will get better. Very happy with game plan. Lets hope the young key forwards develop quickly.
We were the better team. Those two 50m frees were BS and telling in the end.
Unforced turnovers and inaccurate kicking will do us in all season long.
Can't wait till Rowe no longer gets a game
The SEC just took Yallourn B offline in anticipation of high increase of electricity consumption due to increased use of microwave ovens post match.
Still not enough key players of AFL standard.
Casboult hasn't improved...ultra frustrating!
..good to see four quarter effort..
Need to find a big marking ,goal kicking forward.
Nothing changed my mind on the players we need to replace before being good.
The 50 metre penalties weren't the reason we lost.
We lost because we didn't take our chances early and two crucial errors swung the game.
One was a White turnover and the other was the Everitt spilled mark.
We could have and should have won.
Great game nonetheless and the endeavour was there.
The tackling was a lot better.
The running and support was much better.
On the negative side:
That is probably as good a side as we can put on the park at the moment and Richmond were injury depleted.
I thought the rucks were well beaten.
We need to convert our inside 50s better
I thought we would run the game out better and I really thought we would win being in front at 3/4 time.
65 games to go.
Can someone please explain that deliberate out of bounds against Kruezer in the last
Casboult Everitt oh dear
And Jamo touched it
AFL
Kerridge's turnovers at crucial stages in the game esp early in the last cost us big time ...
And Levi should not be playing AFL football ...
Buckley went missing tonight - I think Daisy might take his place next week.
Daisy should replace Everitt
Have a who can make the most mistakes in a game challenge?
Went to game. My observations :
Tiges are shit.
Should have won.
Casboult is poison. Must be his last game ever. Joke.
If we persist with Levi we are a comedy act.
Casboult kills us. Unfortunately he is all we have at the moment.
I am sure we all agree he is not up to it but we don't have anyone else for a while.
We have been sucked into putting too much time into him.
Made Tiges look like top 12 side. But Casboult cost us. I have confidence that Bolts will cut him now. Terrible.
Conceding easy goals from stupid frees and 50 metre penalties.
Tackling dropped off as the game went on.
Thought Jamo was a little disappointing.
Casboult's kicking for goal.
Whilst White's errors at the end of the second were critical, we need to look at the play before and Simpson for all his good was culpable for a shitty one arm attempt to tackle. Simpson made a number of crucial errors which as a senior member of the team are unacceptable. Days are numbered. Before you all start badgering me....yeah, he's been invaluable
Also let's sort out the cheer squad behind goals. Looks deplorable
If we are truly in reset mode then time to move Simpson, White, Everitt, Jamieson on
Casboult. Can't believe how we have let Andy 'teflon' McKay paint us into this corner where we are totally dependent on him.
Buckley. I think a ceiling is starting to form.
Everritt. Expect more from him at this point.
Jamo and Simmo - approaching the end. They weren't that bad, but it's just sad to see them declining a bit.
The Elephant in the room- Simmo. Gives the ball back to the opposition with most disposals. To think he used to be our go to man on the wing. Well, Mick thought he was a defender. Wrong.
Levi: Kicks the 3 goals with those opportunities and career is made. Alas.
Dylan: Trickless
Everitt: Hugely talented but I aint relying on him in a final- so bye bye.
Levi is the ultimate flower! He is Jennifer Hawkins right up until he kicks the ball then he switches instantly into Roseanne Barr! How for the life of me can somebody not teach him to guide the ball down to his foot! The bloke goes from zero to hero if he learns to kick, can the club not free up some of the budget for massage therapists, sports psychologists, high performance feng shui spin doctors and celebrity bootstudders, toenail clippers and @rse wipers and get somebody to show Levi how to kick. We managed to show some blokes from Ireland how to do it, why cant we get the bloke from Beaconsfield to do it too! Does my head in!....rant over!
as long as they have Houli in their side they will be medoicre....thats fair
Missed tackles were almost our biggest problem.
I'm waiting for the Hun to say about this loss. It was:
BRAVE
