Just shuffling the deck chairs, our list is so evenly crap. Play a practice game best vs the rest and the best wins by a goal says it all.

But I would like to see weideman come in and provide a tall option

Tomlinson to full forward, McDonald to half back, Viney to chb and Brayshaw crumbling forward. Might try lever in the ruck.

Drop Petracca and Pickett for showing ability. Can't have that.

May as well try and get north the best draft pick they can.

Honestly * this club.

Also Bennell in, don’t give a stuff if he doesn’t pressure or tackle. You know what makes defenders nervous, blokes with talent and freakish ability around goals.

just like Kevin bartlett would say the best forward pressure is kicking goals

And the more time your team has the ball or use it well means the less you need to pressure the other team! Genius

Weid in for a run. Sink or swim big man.

Clarry out, put Harmes or Salem or anyone else in the middle who will at least think about using the ball before they offload it.

You're next Viney, shape up this week or you're cut next week too.

Effort isn't enough. Bring skills to the table.... or better yet ******* don't change a thing and lets get this muppet fired so we can go back to the coaching merry-go-round again.

Didn't watch the 2nd half.

Disgraceful that Fritsch gets whacked on the half time siren and nobody does anything.

We are bunch of cowards. We go into our shell so quickly. There's no senior players that consistently fly the flag.

Oliver gets praised by Goody in the presser for his effort. You need more than effort to win games of footy, Simon. How about tactics? skill? smarts?

We are all effort, no reward. Clubs gone backwards. 2019 was a write off for a number of reasons but what's the excuse now? Essentially a full list, best fitness guy and still can't run over the top of a team with no bench.

We have won one game by 1 point against Carlton.

Exactly. The fact that Goodwin praises Oliver's game means we are ****ed.

A decent club would drop Viney or Oliver to get them to work on their decision making and disposal. And have a full forward leading from the square. Or have players that can kick kicking inside. Etc. Etc.

Hunt is done.

Smith either goes forward or he's done.

Harmes has to tag or go forward and replace one of the duds down there.

Maybe it's time for Sparrow to come in to replace a big underperforming mid.

Lockhart isn't working. Get Jetta back.

Bennell surely, surely replaces AVB who is done.

It's time for Weid. Sink or swim time surely now. TMac has looked better last 2 weeks, but Fritsch is literally our main target. He should be a 3rd target type.

OUT
Lockhart
AVB
Hunt
Smith

IN
Jetta

I'm still unconvinced that Bartlett is even a Dees supporter. Appointed by the AFL and I reckon just in it for the corporate clout.

He played at West Coast and I think you're 100% correct.

Probably Peter Jackson's worst decision to endorse this bloke
