An under par result - not too dissapointed tbh.

Great to see Jones back and finding some confidence. Gives us some much needed pace.

Hamill is building really nicely to his pre concussion(s) form.

Fog was great - inconsistent, but he'll get that right in time, and when he does he'll be a weapon. Any who thinks otherwise is a fool.

Scholl has to stop handballing to his teammates under pressure. Lost count of how many times he did that today.

Would love to see Browny spend some time in middle. Could be Laird-esque and give us some much needed pace and class with ball in hand.
 
Deliberately going in a tall defender short was very arrogant and got exposed as the dumbarsery it was.

Fog's first game in his actual position without Tex in his way. Promising signs for the future.

McAdam was good. Turned things around. Well done.

Seedsman had some mind numbing moments.

Led them for inside 50s for most of the game, just very poor quality.

We desperately need to invest in some smart midfielders.

Jones looking like a footballer and McAdam showing some semblance of his 2020 self the real highlights. Fog imposing himself on the game early was good, but he obviously fizzled late.

Kids in general didn't disgrace themselves. Berry and Thilly snagged a few.

The bad is the same as its been for a while now. Terrible bombs into the fifty. Ludicrously undersized defence. ROB's form. Frampton's existence.

Sloane was also pretty anonymous.
 
Good
Fogarty first half was fantastic
Good signs from Filthy
Best game from Rowe
Good return from Jones
Stayed in the hunt

The bad
Lack of Worrell, Murray or McAsey was beyond stupid
Frampton disappointing
Forwards entries were terrible, surprised they kick as many goals as they did
Doedee played out of position
 
Extremely impressed with Jones transition to defense. Has a nice burst, great composure and can find the football.

Hope is not lost at all. Probably his second best game for us
+1

Said it in the gameday thread - keep playing him as a secondary rebounding defender to Smith. Allow him to get some confidence up by raising his disposal count

Fogarty started on fire, faded in the middle with the rest of the team and forwards, then bobbed up at the end.

Did just enough. Persist again in the same role.

Frampton woeful. He's finished at this level, totally useless
 
Can’t complain too much.

Good
Fogs first q
Thilthorpe
Smith
Macadam
Jones was better
Pressure, for most of the match
Scholl
Schoenberg

Bad
Selection, obviously
Our midfield, still
ROB
Frampton

Unsighted
ROC
Mackay
Worrell 😉
 
Good:

McAdam returned to form
Rowe very good
Jones.... interesting off HB
Fog was great to start with. How good was that throw down of the WC defender?
Laird was Laird
Keays was Kaeys
Schoenberg did some good
Not embarrassed at all. Was a pretty good outing for all but 10 mins in the 2nd

Bad:

MacKay.... Cmon, it's time for him to not be in the 22
ROB. Still poor
Need more drive from Sholl. When we were at our best earlier in the year, he was the driver\
Seeds was down,but has been good lately

Ugly:

No 2nd KPD? If ever there was a week..... What a blunder. Right up there with the Lynch med sub call

Most exciting:

How good is Thilthorpe gonna be? So clean at his feet for a big guy and can take a mark. Wowsers its gonna be fun to watch!
 
Good:
We fought across every quarter
Laird -effing brilliant! I wish we had two of him.
McAdam -Ive been a critic but that was much better.
Keays - Tries his guts out

Bad:
Lacked a lot of polish inside 50 -had we taken more chances v entries we may have got close enough to steal it
Doedee needs a rest or is playing injured

Ugly:
Our lack of a monster backman
 
Rarely I will say lost at selection, but this game was.

That 15 minute period where WCE exposed our lack of a second KPD and Doedee unable to play loose killed our momentum.


When Doedee had Hartigan and Talia he would play off his man and create a defensive double team against a guy like Darling.

Throwing him into KPD takes that away.


Second half moving Kelly ,(lol) onto Darling allowed Doedee to play his role. Darling's goals dried up.


But the ship had sailed.



First quarter was brilliant. Second until WCE could isolate Darling was pretty good too. Game was on our terms.


Then it went to shit. Clawed back a bit in second half, but WCE cruised a bit.



There is a lot of good, but that non selection of a KPD against WCE was dumb.
