Uhm, how did they not reverse that?

Scummy player does scummy shit...

 

[No SPIN]

McRae has always been next to useless tactically.

Coaches of the Year AND flag winners are not tactically inept.

 

[anshell]

This is actually worse than the same game last year and that was putrid as well.

 

[Rooosterboy]

That's not the context of the discussion at all, no one is using it as an excuse. No doubt we'd still have lost in cooler conditions.

We would have lost if we'd been playing in Brisbane this weekend

Membrey is having a day to forget not to remember.

The Whole Team is the Same

 

[barrackers]

Green’s campaigner coming out again

They’re on the way to a percentage booster now

We start Round 1 with a percentage of around 50%

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

I think the most concerning part is how they just look like a bunch of quitters

Uhh, did you read my post. We would have lost anywhere, serving this shit up...

I wouldn’t be writing Pendles off just yet.

I’d be using him as a sub most weeks that can coach from the bench

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

The concern is we look a lot like last season, where we took a month to get going.

3 winnable games on paper if we were at our best we probably won’t capitalise on based off this, and it’s also uphill to make finals.

It’s still early, but I do worry we’ve had another ineffective preseason. This time with more of a break.

It’s also a little stark how slow we look today. Younger players are just quicker, and as we know, we don’t have a many.

I'm worried.

We set the tone early in 2022 and 2023 and had good seasons.

We looked off the pace in 2024 and played catch up for the rest of the season. 2025 unfortunately might be more of the same.

I had emergency surgery a week ago, this is now officially more painful.

Lucky you’re not the coach.

 

[manicpie]

I think we'll get a much better picture after next week's game, especially with a couple of quality players coming in

 

[TradeDraft]

That is it for me I am going to Start Watering the Garden

 

[JLC]

Coz you’re dog shit

But will still beat you lol.

 

[ksardog]

Fitness coach may be getting a few questions this week

 

[barrackers]

Is front on contact not rule in 2025?

 

[Shade]

Father Time finally might have claimed the great Pendles.

 

[Axl the great]

Have loved the moves they made at 1/2 time, calighan killing us so they sit no one on him.
Taylor dominating, so they keep kicking it too him.
Some serious concerns from this display

Howe should have been moved into a defensive role on Taylor after half time.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

I had emergency surgery a week ago, this is now officially more painful.

Hope you're doing okay mate.

 

[jmac70]

I'm worried.

Sorry to hear that.

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Coz you’re dog shit

Come back to us when your last game isn't one of the worst in AFL history.

 

[tigerairau]

Fly has a lot to answer.
