Colledge's general awfulness really stood out for me. Way behind where you'd expect someone who's been in the system as long as he has to be.

Thought Ellis was quite good, showed his smarts and experience in a side severely lacking them.

Colledge has probably given up. He knows he is done come the end of the year.

It's true - but he won't be the inside beast that the OP had hoped. Doesn't mean he won't play far better when our normal team is around him.

Yeo has never really had the chance to play as inside mid because of injury's down back i think it will take a while for him to click in that role. At worst case he will be a pinch hitter but a good one at that as he is very good when he is forward of center. Yeo to me looked like he didnt want to get too involved with his past injuries and just wants to get through the NAB cup.

There is a old saying ( be c##t get C##t ) was a perfect example of this if you read back.. I didn't start on anyone and didn't deserve what was given. So i stand by what i said on the turps or not !
 
What was the club thinking when they gave colledge two years at the end of 2014. He is so far off the pace it isn't funny.

he was 20 at the time and probably showed abit at the time and to be honest he started 2015 with a bang as well but turned to utter crap after that. I think they should have stuck to having him play as key position forward that can pinch him in the middle.

At the end of 2014 we were a middle of the table team with arguably the worst midfield in the comp.

Keeping a young mid based on potential was not the worst idea in the world.

Adelaid have a new coach and they actually want to to put a proper first performance (like we did 2 years ago when we belted freo). They also have a few goood players fighting to get best 22 spots. On top of that they have two road games coming up and will probs not have their b22 on the park.

Am I the only one who didn't think that Karpany was completely awful in a forward role? Some pretty bad mistakes, but one of them was a shanked kick at goal after an excellent pickup below the knees on the run. A couple of goals when the ball was hardly down there isn't too bad. Not saying that he'll ever play a single game for us, but in the context of the game he was resembling the whole team: a whole lotta nothing interjected by some decent moments.

College, Brophy and Lucas on the other hand were just plain awful in absolutely everything. It'll be a Patrick McMiracle if any of them get another shot after this year.

Couldn't agree more re Colledge, Brophy and Lucas. I have had the misfortune to watch them in my beloved Royals colours. Brophy has absolutely no idea how to play the game, Lucas has no heart. Colledge is the best of the three.
 
Seeing as Brophy's been playing Aussie Rules for about 12 months I think it's understandable.

Thought he was pretty impressive last year the times I saw him. Yesterday was a disaster, he was far from alone in looking out of his depth.

I've thought that as well players keen to impress the new coach and their fans .
Wce on the other hand Simmo leaves Longmuir in charge ,appoints Schoefield Capt. ,leaves his best team in Perth and sends a WAFL team over to knock down a few big egos and shows them kids what's required to play AFL .

Actually, according to NicNat on Twitter all the senior players were over in Melbourne having dinner at Crown :confused:
