#eco Can’t wait to go to Marvel tomorrow for not a north game. Might rid me of the PTSD that I associate with the place.

 

[Roosurgence]

Looking forward to another coaches press conference , always feel peckish afterwards though

David is making the Kayne Turner sandwiches to give us some nourishment as we speak.

No David it’s not Nutella!

 

[travelli]

pftftftf 47 points. That's hardly a notable number.

 

[DarwinRoo]

We outnumbered the Suns supporters in the crowd if you are looking for a positive.

 

[Dingster]

Like Perez but at one stage he was running back to defend space but left Ellis 15 metres inside of him in the clear. What are they coaching players?

Ellis only had 11 and little influence in a team that owned the midfield. Worth noting.

 

[kool kangas]

Clearly royal blue

Looks darker to me.. definately not royal blue..

[Eggs11]

EIGHT players with less than 10 possessions. We are a spud farm.

 

[Lomas]

Oh, the depths we have now sunk to for a sign

We are a sewage farm.

 

[gokangas]

EIGHT players with less than 10 possessions. We are a spud farm.

That stat sums up our current position.

 

[winisimbi]

the players for the most part are still having a crack, we see the effort and hurt is there. Set up some semblance of a structure the players can sustain and give some hope! We need some nourishment

 

[Arthur Cloke]

This can't go on. It just cant.

 

[Snojet]

I think Perez is coming along nicely. My concern is more with the coaching. If the opposition has the ball you need to find an opponent or be close enough to make a contest. It just looked like he had been told to guard the boundary.

 

[franjon]

We don't have a game plan, just small improvement metrics.

We're obviously malnourished.

 

[Lomas]

We're obviously malnourished.

Very restricted diets will do that.

Watch when he pulls it out, its royal blue

 

[Roosurgence]

We don't have a game plan, just small improvement metrics.

We are collecting small nuggets of s**t in hope that we can assemble a complete turd.

We need to turn another 6 or 7 players over just got to much dead wood. Polly, kayno, jz. Atus prolly a bust, cant see mahony being part of anything special but i think like polly he has another year, ronnies finished.

It's not like there weren't positives today - a really solid first quarter to set us up, and some pretty good efforts put in by guys like Young and Walker in the backline to try and stem the tide once things rapidly went south. Conditions weren't a non-factor either, it was clear that one of the issues from the start of the second quarter on was that we didn't have the energy to keep up.

But none of that excuses the sheer consistent non-competitiveness of it all. Yet again, opposition players spread with ease, and move the ball around at will - from stoppages, turnovers, whatever - whilst we prove incapable of shutting that down or doing the same when in possession, which means we end up working twice as hard to put scores on the board (on the increasingly rare occasion we're playing well enough to actually contemplate scoring...). Whatever semblance of a system we have still seems to be some deranged blend of slowly chipping the ball around, madly ambitious corridor plays just ripe for being carved up on the turnover, and highly-predictable down-the-line aimlessness. Once more, it's a performance far too flat and lifeless to provide any confidence that our long-term development is on track - quite simply, if this is part of the plan then the plan is wrong.

I don't think Noble is the core cause of our current problems; I'm more worried by whatever our list management strategy is supposed to be, and by the administrative complacency that sees us apparently happy with where we're at because, uh, other clubs who are now okay were once in a similarly terrible spot, and the coach is one of the few who at least comes across as a little bothered by our current continued failings. But breaking out of this rut is going to require far more than the subtle tweak of going man-on-man occasionally, and an intransigent insistence that we just need to get better at a system that's got us nowhere at all to date; we look so bereft of basic football capabilities at the moment that major change of some kind is rapidly required.

 

[Lomas]

We are collecting small nuggets of s**t in hope that we can assemble a complete turd.

And being told that it can be shined.

 

[SonofSamsquanch]

If turner ever plays another game for this club we are not serious. Then again, I’m sure I’ve said that 3-4 times already this year…

And you were right the first time.
