Yep, still just trying to do too much with the ball, which IMO has come from all the pre-season hype. Needs to just be a complementary chop out for Rowell, Anderson, Miller at this stage of his career like Graham has done.
Not worried about long term, but he has to learn that he’s only 19 and...
Also, would rather Moyle play in that role and give Witts some rest up forward with King and Walter up the ground. Can sub him out for speed if need be. Or even King a couple of bounces in the middle if that’s what’s needed to get his hands on the footy.
Just goes to show we’ve still got ALOT of work to do list wise, and the team can’t just keep kicking the can down the road accumulating picks and relying on the academy.
The strategy of only using 1st round picks, academy Cat B rookies, and a revolving door of rookie re-treads for the last 4...
eh, they’ll still come out looking to rip our heads off next week cos they are a group of non-serious bullies and we are their grand final, before returning to this lazy, capitulating team that we can all enjoy watching again. But right now is glorious.
Also, if we could take a page out of GWS’...
Reckon it’ll be
Uwland -> Sexton
Read -> Day
which is super uninspiring, but these types of guys are going to filter in and out with the amount of young guys we have in.
Would rather Jeffrey in and Luko forward and tbh I don’t know what Joel has to do to get a call up? Likely gone at the end...
Not really feeling the angst this week. Got done on the road by probably the most well drilled team in the league on their uniquely shaped home ground that they took advantage on. Was super sh*t but its going to happen early on with this new look young team.
We’re always going to be a different...
While we have to accept that we are a young team, the biggest issue today was that it was the senior players failing to fire, and the kids had no hope of excelling.
Touk, Noah, Collins, Ballard, Lukosius, King, Ainsworth all poor and we just can’t overcome that.
Meanwhile thought Clohesy was...
Would like to see Walter down at full forward while Rosas is out. Gives us 1 player down there who will chase like nothing else and create a chance out of nothing. King just provides nothing for someone with that speed.
And here comes the ‘well a loss is a loss whether its 1 point or 100 points so better not hurt myself by going near it’.
F*ck this is a group of peahearts.
It’s going to take years and probably another 5-6 academy boys coming through who actually give a sh*t to undo this willingness to just roll over at the slightest threat.
You can almost set your watch to it. A big win and a bit of optimism followed by the midfield completely failing to show up...
