Easily the worst performance we have put out there in 25 years. It’s not the kids the vets are pus.
The deplorable skills is inexcusable. We are not even a good vfl team. We are a decade away from being even competitive
Worst in 25years lol

Miss the cats beating us by 150pts? Or Swans by 112pts?

Talk about overreacting.

This is our lot at the moment, us and the bombers are the 2 worst teams in it. Look for the positives, fawcett looked good in his 2nd game and Grjl keeps getting better.

The least said on Ryan the better.

Our skills were awful today. I don’t want people using the kids as scapegoats when our senior players were playing like that. The fact we lost all 4 quarters says enough.

Fawcett had a solid second game. Loved his second quarter. Grlj was great in the first half. Lalor was great in the last quarter. MRJ was solid.

Big question marks on our coaching staff. We knew Port would outrun us from defensive 50 chains (they’ve done this every time playing against Yze), so why did we play all of Hopper, Taranto, Ross, and Prestia in the midfield? He needed to try something else instead of locking in the loss Thursday night. Too vanilla with his coaching and selections. Winning clearances and contested possessions didn’t matter one bit in the end because of the mix he picked
didnt see kmac in the centre once, insane. grilf gets a 2 second cameo in there and immediately looks at home and causes the oppo headaches. but nah scrap that, lets roll with one paced hacks regardless of how badly theyre being exposed.
 
Fantastic umpiring display
we got the most free kicks we have got for ages but Port was sneaky and gave us professional free kicks late and in shit parts of the ground and umps decides not to make em pay when 4 or 5 50m should have went our way

kelli underwood is quite good looking
This is the worst thing you've ever said and you've been on here as long as I can remember.
 
No silver linings yet this year.

Youngsters are injured, guys who made progress last year have regressed (Banks, Brown), old guys have aged. Hard to see us winning more than 2 games. I reckon the spoon is ours.

I think we missed a golden opportunity to appoint mini

wouldve had us playing with the proven flag winning gameplan by now after the last few drafts

grigg, come on down
 
The thing that's seperates us in this area and good teams, is that good sides have there half back flanks stream through to recieve the handball to go inside 50...
Whereas we just throw it on the boot and blindly hope. Not sure if its our half backs that aren't working hard enoigh or mids not looking... probably both
Was at the game today. Grlj was the ONLY one consistently running into proper space, and our backs just weren't looking for him. They always took the easy long option to a contest.
 
It’s going to be a longggggg year. Why does it look like we’ve gone backwards and i thought it couldn’t get any worse than the last 2 years.
That’s the scariest thought, I’m not sure we’ve hit rock bottom yet. We really need to bring in some half decent mature aged recruits
 
Effort wasn't too bad today - it's just the fundamentals - the basics we get wrong. The skill's coach (kicking) needs a roasting. The coaching in general is a concern. Prestia's kicking was about the worst I've ever seen.

I liked the games of Gray, Rioli, Fawcett, Miller, Grlj, Green, Sonsie & Lalor

Up until Ryan's punch off the ball, I liked what I saw of him - lots of potential. But mentally he's way off.

Hard to see a win coming this year.
Positives - Grlj shows more will and intent than most the senior list
Lalor - seemed to have a hand in every goal we kicked
Pressure was good at times

Negatives - too may to list, picking Ryan after 2 quarters of vfl was beyond a joke fmd, senior players such as Hopper, Ross, Banks, Broad gave us absolutely jack shit today, to kick 6 goals on our home deck against port was horrific.

Forward line entries and leading patterns are bordering on non existent.

Really want the kids to get fit so there is something to enjoy, this team is close to the worst skilled squad I’ve ever seen
Grlj playing with intent really highlights the lack of effort by some of our senior players. Just got it in second gear and doing what they need to do.
 
It’s going to be a longggggg year. Why does it look like we’ve gone backwards and i thought it couldn’t get any worse than the last 2 years.

Cos the game gets further away from the Taranto/ Hopper/Prestia/ Ross types. We are still playing 4 of them.

Then Vlas and Broad another year past their prime. Players like Banks/Brown/McCauliffe are extremely average.

It aint getting better until the high draft picks get 50+ games and most arent even playing yet.

It’s the strategy and I put it on the coach. Three games in, no adjustment, same strategy. Just bang it on the boot and pray.
