With the exception of miller and Carroll Moloney is the only one with enough mungrel to take the game to the opposition physically. He was our best on ground against Hawthorn and should have been given more game time (not that it would have mattered). I reckon he has a lot to offer us in the coming years. The reason for our poor performance is simple. The lack of forward line. Neitz has had it. Robertson is past his best, Newton is too slow and Holland is not the answer. We miss Bate so bad its not funny. Why not give Jeff White a run at full forward and bring in Meeson?
 
I am starting to lose faith in Brent with 6 clangers and only being able to kick the ball long which may help if there was a target!

I love his hardness but that 50m penalty was just stupid, he definately wasn't thinking when he decided to stick the elbow in! He needs to take a leaf out of Wheels book and be agressive without giving away so many free kicks!

Didnt lose the game for us, but it was coslty and it did lose us the momentum. You can't blame one player for being 50 points down at 3/4 time.
 
Yeah I know what your saying. I think this is his first full Preseason and you can tell the guy is huge. I went to see the hawks game and i still have visions of him sprinting 30m to a pack and just crashing it picking the ball of the ground and handballing to Mcdonald for one of our only goals of the game. His hardness is needed there at the moment especially without neitz. He has a massive heart and we need that. He just tends to get frustrated easily but time on the field (which he hasn't seen much of lately) should calm him down. He's trying to cement his spot. I reckon there's always room for him on our bench.
 
What I can't believe is how Cam Bruce has escaped criticism for his miss early in the 2nd qtr. Green had kicked 2, momentum all in our favour, Bruce runs into an open goal and put it on the full. Woulda put us 2 goals up, but instead, gave the Blues a let off, after which Moloney stuffs up and Judd basically shows why he is one of, if not the premier midfielder in the comp by burning off everyone in his wake towards another goal.
 
Good point. We are also having wayyyyyy too many rushed behinds against us. The ball is going too deep and is simply being punched through with a lack of height and strength down there. Kicks need to aimed at the top of the square not the goal line.

In Bruce's defence he was pretty much on his ass when his foot made contact with the ball as he slipped.
 
Moloney incident being looked at by the MRP. Elbowed Pfieffer in the head. Silly boy.

Bruce's silky skills definitely haven't been consistency on display though this year so far. He's another one that can still lift another 30 - 50% and thats a bloody good thing.
 
why did moloney get omit the next week after the hawthorn match? he tackled hard and racked up 26 disposals or so, surely deserved a gamethe next week
