We don't have any good young players who are ready ...Dumont might be good enough for AFL, might not be, we don't know yet. Other than that, new draftees miles away yet ... I don't think BS has favourites, at least can't think of one who is keeping someone else out.
Are we talking about the same player who was massive in the last quarter against Geelong as sub? Looked like he could play at the level to me! Good form needs to be rewarded, not punished by being dropped and replaced by a potato!

J Mac over thinks the game and doesn't play on instinct is my conclusion after watching the game live and then a replay.

This is probably a result of not playing enough footy in the last 12 months.

The whole team over thinks.

First option football is non existent.

I agree, but if you watched J Mac closely, its clear he was struggling more than most on Saturday.

Its also a massive problem at around the ground stoppages, we are either not very smart as a side or the coaches message isn't getting through.

Seems to perform ok against average teams but struggles against the top teams, much like a lot of players in our team I guess.
Was pretty good against the cheats in the EF last year when we needed someone to stand up.

Mans his opposition closely, then whales his arms around like an inflatable tubeman when going to tackle. Tackle gets broken opposition gets the score.

Very accountable is our Jaime :p
Yawn.... These blatantly stupid inaccuracies are just plain boring.
