McAsey showed real promise as a Key Forward, people need to realise this is a 19 year old Key Position player in one of the worst teams in living memory. Has shown real glimpses of what he will develop in to.
Sloane and Mcrouch can’t kick, they had so many Clangers under no pressure

Good: Smithy
Bad: Lady Umpire - Go back to the magoos until you learn how to bounce the ball
Ugly: Treacle Hartigan, The Seagull Jumper

Senior players are categorically the main issue with our side right now.
I don't want to hear s**t about how we are playing too many kids, not enough experience, etc.
Experienced players are KILLING us out there. Matt Crouch, Brad Crouch, Mackay, Laird, Kelly, Hartigan, Sloane...

Will be a winless season
Hamill, McAsey, McAdam, Jones = MUST be persisted with.
Fagan needs to quietly behind the scenes start planting the seeds with the AFL to get a Priority Pick.
We dont need any more stubborn arrogance.

Hope so. We spent an incredibly early pick on a player that wouldn't have a single highlight from his season so far, so let's hope the glimpses become actually doing something at some stage.
Agreed, they aren't up to it and haven't been for a few years. Surely Nicks can see that?
Would love to have Dermie as Forwards coach.
He knows exactly what is wrong with our forwards, said so more than once, and how to fix it.
I would imagine he would also straighten up our forward delivery too.

First game I can see a plan or style. Attacking handball, tackling chasing pressure with intent... if only we could get Sloane fit and Laird, M. Crouch, Lynchto join in. I liked the way McCasey and McAdam worked into it in the second half.
We cannot in this modern day, play Hartigan, Talia, Brown and Kelly in the same backline. There is a reason they are not manned up by the opposition on the switch, it’s because they are no threat to take the game on and hit a target. They are complete momentum killers. Kelly especially. Ideally he needs to go for an attacking player and if he plays there needs to be a blanket rule that no one kicks to him, I don’t care if there’s no one around him for 100 metres, don’t ******* kick it to him.

He was putrid.
He took two uncontested marks when the game was all over
what else did he do?
Hamill, Doedee, Talia.

I didn't think he (Frampton) was that bad.

Not sure how you can deduce that when he only touched the ball 5 times, never looked likely, and his shot at goal from the behind line was blasted across the face in ruckman fashion
Would love to see a game without the Crouch bros, Mackay, Sloane, Laird and Lynch.
Take them out of the side, we may have won today.

Defended well, presented options, didn't turn over the ball by foot, what else did you want from a second KPD?
Don't care how many touches MCrouch gets. He is useless.
Laird was better but he didnt get near it as much so he couldn't butcher it as much.
Obrien beaten in the ruck easily but got a few junk time marks.
Mackay had a very typical Mackay game. No more, no less. Brushed off it a few times 1 good kick followed by several bad ones. Lots of hospital handballs, the usual.
Sloane was pretty dreadful with the ball. Needs a rest or play exclusively outside.
Mcasey couldnt get near it. I'm worried he isnt very athletic and we blew an early pick on a dinosaur who turns like a truck but anyway he has plenty of time to prove us wrong. I still think he is a defender long term, but wont give us much offensively.
Hamill was excellent, Id have him in our best with just a couple of mistakes from taking the game on.
Mcpherson was excellent and clean on debut. Jake Kelly needs to GTFO.
Jones looked like he was one of the few that gives a s**t. He hits players hard in the tackle and makes them earn it. I'm starting to change my mind on him.
Keays gives a s**t as well. He would look better like others if we were better.
Mcadam and Stengle quiet but understandable.
