Kane McGoodwin - this is what I'm taking about.Great exoerience Sloane. Centred ball, misses target by 10m, turnover, goal.
I was hoping we would have some players who would improve our skill level.
Roey's disposal has been poor for most of the year, and I can only assume he will be rusty after quite a few weeks out.
You do know the team just flew very early this morning who just played their last game on Tuesday night and played a game against the "home" team who have been in the hub with a 8 days break don't you???? This is simply a WTF season.They've disgraced the name today
Prepare for his axing next week, can't be that handy on field when our senior mids fail.Dropping him earlier this year was bizarre. Did not deserve it
Didn't watch the game obviouslyFirst caller on FiveAA singled out Stengle as being pathetic.
Yes. Terrible coaching particularly when Sloane clearly not up to itWhere is Laird playing? Not around the contest much at all. Has he been shunted to accommodate Sloane getting midfield minutes?
Around the ground he is fantastic. But we can’t get that smashed in the middle and ROB not be part of it. Against someone like dunkley ROB should be putting where he wants but he can’t. His tap work is not great.Yeah nah, our mids need to learn from opposition mids who can read O'Brien's tap work far better than they can. He fed it to them all day.
Agree. Stengle actually had a goDidn't watch the game obviously
Now lets measure it up against all the other teams who've done the exact same thing this season.You do know the team just flew very early this morning who just played their last game on Tuesday night and played a game against the "home" team who have been in the hub with a 8 days break don't you????

I find it hard to care at all this season. Complete joke, should have been called offI've already said it
* shrugs *
Incorrect. A ruckman has limited options when the ball is bounced (unless it's a perfect bounce). Our mids don't read the likely drop zones in centre clearances.Around the ground he is fantastic.

it needs to improve to help with the midfield.
God you're a hard marker. Hes has been at the drop of the ball more than any player on our team.Tries hard but he is part of the midfield that has gotten flogged. Simply doesn’t do enough with his tap work. Especially against some of the rucks in this game.
The AFL fixture will affect the clubs at the lower end which is us this year so we will get the rough end of the stick.Now lets measure it up against all the other teams who've done the exact same thing this season.
They're still getting used to a ruck who has more moves than "drop it to my feet"Incorrect. A ruckman has limited options when the ball is bounced (unless it's a perfect bounce). Our mids don't read the likely drop zones in centre clearances.
I thought Schoenberg showed plenty today.... Bailey Smith is going to be an absolute star of the competition and the most damaging midfielder we've seen for years. 811 metres gained is unbelievable for a player that wins a lot of his ball in congestionKid has to learn, playing his 3rd game in 12 days or something stupid.
Smith is a jet, but Harry will be great
He wasn’t up against a proper ruckman half the time. If you think ruckman can’t do much at a center bounce you have no idea.Incorrect. A ruckman has limited options when the ball is bounced (unless it's a perfect bounce). Our mids don't read the likely drop zones in centre clearances.
Did you see fog last week. I don't know that either of them deserve a game at the moment
Exactly. His last game for the club thenLike his last game for the crows when Blighty put him at half back because he wouldn't compete or chase?
I'm fairly sure they both came at half back in the last few minutes as well.

Yep. His last game because he stopped trying and sooked.Exactly. His last game for the club then

Like I said the midfield is the major issue. ROB is our best option in ruck no doubt. But is his tap work good enough at this level? Part of it is getting better mids in their but the tap work is a part of it was well.God you're a hard marker. Hes has been at the drop of the ball more than any player on our team.
His work rate is exceptional and it's not his fault our midfield is void of structure.
Sure his tap work isn't always great but he plays a lone hand.
Who is his replacement... Himmelberg?
Strachan?
Frampton?
The cupboard is bare.
O'Brien is not the problem.
Correct ROB last 3 weeks have been 1st class, mind you Tim English is not a Ruckman's bootlace but he proved against Gawn and Grundy he's more than competitive with the "big boys".God you're a hard marker. Hes has been at the drop of the ball more than any player on our team.
