It's really not poo after that though. Naughton should be better, Daniel was dropped for some reason, Dale was the sub and he can turn a game around, they've got Macrae out of the side. Darcy is developing and should be showing a lot more, Ed Richards is a decent player, Weightman is decent...
It doesn't matter how often they get given, I just don't think those mega long term contracts are good for player or club. You've locked in your value for 10 years where's your incentive to get better? Naughton is a good player but he has plenty of room for improvement and his showings since...
It probably will be, but you can't really determine a players form off a single game. If it was strictly 100% selection on form every game judged separately, Newcombe would have been dropped after round 1.
If you want to look at the effects of dropping and elevating players on a game by game...
I'm not going to call it woke or complain about snowflakes but I just can't really work myself up to care about someone calling someone else a homophobic slur, particularly if the person on the receiving end doesn't even identify as gay. These things should be handled behind closed doors, the...
He can't. Those guys you need to stop at the source and Finn just isn't a great centre bounce player.
Finn needs to start off ball and move on to someone in general play, by the time you get to Rowell or Miller in general play the damage is done.
I think you're missing the point here, which is how much difference the effort actually makes. Richmond were the definition of a not amazing side but their workrate won them 3 flags.
We don't have the experience in the roles to weather the types of injuries we currently have, but with Day back I do genuinely feel it'll be night and day. We really miss him, much more than I thought we would.
Good fightback but ultimately you don't have to come back if you don't let yourself get that far behind.
Hope Newc's form has turned a corner here because we look so much better when the ball is in his hands (that kick across ground an exception).
You know things are dire defensively when Hipwood and Daniher are getting 14 shots on goal in a game against you.
I'm not as down on North as some, I reckon their midfield in particular will be spectacular in a few years, but that entire back 6 is just... bad. Woeful even.
That's 45 shots on...
