Mate, we've been there. We know what it's like. You're in a transition period. You've got Sheezel and Wardlaw and got rid of that head case in JHF and are now heading into one of the strongest drafts for many years. I don't think it's all doom and gloom. I don't think you guys cracked in defensively tonight though but either did we against Essendon or Brisbane who flogged us for most of the game.So this is what it's like to be on the other end when it comes to footy club bunnies.
Absolutely annihilated us tonight. Mids too strong, backs too strong and your forward line didn't really need much to get going either. We're a mess at the moment and there were far too many reasons to be smashed tonight (of which all came into fruition). Looked like you guys took the foot off the pedal at times and it showed on the scoreboard a bit. If I am being honest, this is a disguised 20 goal shellacking. Only positive I can think of is I had Oliver captain in SC.
It was to be expected but without our star mids firing we're always going to be vulnerable. Mid-table finishing has cursed our talent pool. Thanks for confirming what an absolute rudderless mess our recruiting and list management has been. I bloody hope Clarko can change things.
Who am I kidding, we're in for some more pain. Good luck for the rest of the year.
I just love the way you go about it.I thought my commentary was astute, though, to be fair.
He's the K-Mart Jack Watts. Good agilty for his size and can hit a target, zero physicality. Bin him.Schache is a younger Ben Brown. Nice skills, needs it on a platterPLAYERCARDSTART50Ben Brown

Yeah I was thinking that watching him. Exact same type of thing.He's the K-Mart Jack Watts. Good agilty for his size and can hit a target, zero physicality. Bin him.
Once the coaching staff figure out he's a flanker we won't have to worry about him again. If you think he's a key position player, sure you give him a whirl when we have cooked guys fighting for a slot, once you're done with that and comparing him to flankers, he's not a patch on any of them and can finish out his days running on a wing at Casey.Yeah I was thinking that watching him. Exact same type of thing.
But we already knew this right? It’s the same as Weideman. Essendon are getting exactly what Melbourne got, and Melbourne are getting exactly what Bulldogs got.He's the K-Mart Jack Watts. Good agilty for his size and can hit a target, zero physicality. Bin him.
Allow us all to have a visceral reaction or two, Tulip. These campaigners beat us 17 times in a row (including by 122), and whilst that was a delightfully smooth first game for me as a mod, that game was about as stressful as an open training session. This place can be boring without the odd melt.
Speaking of visceral, Johnny Karate – we're waiting (we should probably open the changes thread first I suppose)

Why though? A fit Brown is clearly still a capable goal kicker. If half fit though, I'd prefer SchacheIll still take him over TMac and Brown TBH. However im sure Brown will get his spot back if they move Petty back.

There was just no talk out there. No spark. Was quite eerie tbh. Really enjoyed watching Sheezel though. That kid has leader written all over him. Had a go at several players too for not doing the right thing. I thought Cunnington tried hard all game as well. Love the way he goes about it.So this is what it's like to be on the other end when it comes to footy club bunnies.

The players were out on their feet from halfway through the last. Not surprised we gave up a few cheapies. Pretty impressive after a 5 day break tbh. The game was over halfway through the first quarter.What are you people talking about? Check yourselves for a second, seriously! What does kill them off mean? That last few minutes were annoying, sure, but have some perspective. We murdered them.
I enjoyed the game but I'm not sure you can tell much from the game. It's like local footy games where a team wins by 200 points, you start playing the full back at ff ect it kind of feels pointless. Having said that as many have pointed out we've been at the wrong end for a very long time so I will enjoy it while I can.Kinda boring game, seemed like we just got it forward as quick as possible and just kept them under pressure. To destroy a team like that and basically have 2 invisible key forwards is so Melbourne.
Schache is a younger Ben Brown. Nice skills, needs it on a platter
Someone said it above. He's a winger flanker born into too tall a body. Maybe in another life he's developed differently at a young age and can play like Darcy moore or something but yeah nah kinda what I expected from himSchache plays AFL like he knows he’s not up to it. Flys for marks like he knows he’s not going to mark it but is supposed to try and even snaps at goal like he knows it’s not going to go in. Not surprising he looks totally different at VFL level where he obviously knows he can play.
Yeah the girl I watched the Richmond game with and then the Roos game said it seemed like the field was way more spread out in the north game. I was like yep, basically a training drillI enjoyed the game but I'm not sure you can tell much from the game.

Exactly. Loved every minute of it. Who knows when we'll be on the end of a loss like this again. Enjoy the good times while it lasts. Kozzy was bloody exciting to watch. And that Oliver/Trac combo is better than any other in the comp, maybe besides Pendles/Daicos. Can't believe supporters complain constantly about these two. Absolute Jets. Maybe we should go back to Moloney and Jordie McKenzie as our best mids!?I enjoyed the game but I'm not sure you can tell much from the game.
