Forget spoiling mcgovern, kick it over his head. Adcock had the right idea. Our forwards are useless so kick over them....
 
Why? What good does that do? How will it improve our team?

Because he is not playing to an AFL standard and has been one of our worst players this year when we've needed him most? Generally players who aren't playing well in the seniors gets dropped. Redden is far from an exception.

Isn't a kick in out on the full a free kick from the goal square?

A kick in that goes out of bounds without being touched (regardless of if it's out on the full) is a free kick from the point it crosses the boundary line,

You can only drop so many and it only works if there's anybody else half decent to bring in.
 
At H/T:

Aish 2 kicks
Robinson 2 kicks
Rockliff 3 kicks
Taylor 3 kicks
Bewick 3 kicks
Redden 5 kicks

Little wonder F50 entries are 18 to 37 :confused:

Lucky to be only the 28 pts down

If this continues in the second half...well, seriously; the players are not buying in to what Leppa is attempting to sell and that needs to be discussed at board level :thumbsdown:
 
Cutler been brilliant. Just needs to get some confidence in his disposal at this level.
Needs to stay in the team now. Sorry Lester shown way more than you.

Again Aish and Redden have been disappointing.

Like Nick Robertson out there. Keep him in the side.
Golby hasn't been bad.... Better than Mayes.

Martin doing well.

Where is C Beams supreme ball use?
Zorko and Lewy trying hard.
 
Cutler's found more ball than anyone else on the park. Given he's normally a good kick I'm happy to back him in for a few weeks to allow him time to get up to speed.
He is one of my favourite players at the moment. He is going to be an absolute weapon or us in the future. I feel the exact same, his foot skills are usually very impressive so I am just guessing its nerves. Would be surprised if he comes out after half time and his disposal is still this poor.
 
He is borderline useless this season... he certainly looks like the sort of player that has thought things will happen because beams and bundy are in the team. Id drop him fir a good month asap
He has poor disposals and decision making, lacks any defensive running and for a full time mid only averages 20 touches this season. Most posters bang on about his tackle numbers yet that only shows he is second to the ball... and this season is only averaging 3.3 tackles a game. So really you are only getting a very average footballer overall but when you account for the fact he plays permanent midfield he really is quite poor.
 
You can only drop so many and it only works if there's anybody else half decent to bring in.
And therein lies the problem. It's easy to say that most on the injury list wouldn't trouble for first 22 but in reality it means we're down to not much more than a match day squad in fit bodies. And a bunch of those have little to no experience. We're in for a very, very rough year.
