Ok please be gentle as I am a big fan but since his injury earlier this year it seems Stiffy has not been anywhere close to being keen or near his best? Am I being harsh or do others agree that he doesn't appear anywhere near his form of previous years?

Yeah, Stiffy hasn't looked 100% since returning from injury.

I would like to know how many of our side are playing under duress at the moment - half a dozen or so I would say.

Mind you Bock was moving much better today - perhaps it's just an issue of him playing in his favoured CHB position.

Also, think Kenny moved the best he has for a long time.

Stiffy hasn't looked great since returning. Doesn't seem as confident either, he used to be so cool under pressure but he seems to struggle under the pressure of late.

And yes, Bock looked a lot better at CHB. Can't understand why he hasn't been playing there all year.

Slightly disagree. He has been pretty good since returning has looked all clas down back. However in the st kilda game he got stitched up by milne in 2 contests. Milne only had 5 kicks all night. But since then he has been below par. He'll be ok.

I just think he is out of form as are many of our players. Teams are now trying to take his rebound away by dragging him back to the goal square and he has been playing a bit into their hands. I think he should just back himself in a bit more and his team mates should encourage him to do so and cover for him in case there is a turnover.

He will snap out of it. He is just going through a form slump that every player goes through.
