If you’re gonna pick Allan, don’t pick him and leave him on a wing.
He doesn’t function well there
He works best when he doesn’t have to think too much and is instinctive with burst in traffic from inside to out.
He needs to attend centre bounces otherwise we may as well play a man down if...
Allan should be back in as he was eh best performed midfielder in the VFL and he’s on the cusp in terms of senior football with selection.
Parker is the obvious replacement they’ll bring in as Reef isn’t ready yet.
A month for Moore at a time where we play Lions, Freo, Blues and Dons followed by Hawks and Cats.
How far off is Reef from making a senior return because we desperately need reinforcement cover
The few intercept Moore took on Friday night showed how badly we have missed this
As soon as he went in most centre bounces in third and last he got rolling.
He needs to be playing in centre bounce and then centre forward from there
Not just starting inside 50…
His clearance work in centre bounce with his explosiveness was a key reason we got good bounce out of there with...
And to be fair….it was still hard watching how hard we have to work all the time
We got the points and there’s a few things to like but we need some surgery to correct
We can’t have our best forward have 4 touches again because of the way we move the ball
Watching us botch a walk in goal to Sidebottom sums up how hard everything is a the moment with this team.
Steene, JDG, Naicos and Mccrerry winning CB clearances gives us this 3QT lead but it’s unbelievable how we are labouring to 60 points at moment
You’re right that’s true.
Right now though since last year we haven’t played any high tempo with any meaningful effect.
We look “busier” but it’s still looks and is hard work across every line
Perryman needs to run with Callahan
He has the tank
Finn will take him to the ball and he will be active in the play for most part.
This will get him on ball and perhaps give us a different look on ball by taking someone in there out because it’s not working
If he is happy to walk in every week watching this…then he too needs a real wake up call.
Maybe this is the effects of him taking too much leave in off season …when you’re not hands on the wheel and you leave it to others …your fate is no longer in your hands
We have put too much stock on most of our highest ball winners off half back.
But it’s not as damaging from there …we need the damage to be the final kicker going inside 50…and we don’t structure up for that.
I wish Fly would tell them how boring these guy have become and how tiresome it is to...
Coaches box and whoever is in charge of that midfield and attack.
There’s no intent to really kill…just to labour around making everything hard win whilst our F50 becomes a graveyard
