Dom sheed acl, thank you for allowing us to get McCarthy, brilliant first game. We’ve got a good one there.
Harley was good
Dewar was great once he was moved to the wing, no more playing in defence.
Bo Allan should never be sub again.
Baker just good every week.
 
Same people whingeing about the same players (and seniors) every week.
This is the team we have, these are the seniors we have, for the rest of the season - it's taken you half a season and you still don't get it? Seniors won't be dropped, we can't afford to drop any and we can't effectively replace them. The only real change that happens is due to injury or the Msd. Meanwhile the coach is still on training wheels!

We don't have many seniors and they're needed to play for leadership across the lines. We don't have many knocking down the door in Wafl, so where do these replacements come from? Hall and Allan finally got played, but lbh, neither set the game on fire (like McCarthy).

It's a long haul and this is what we're stuck with. There is only improvement along the way and the next draft/trade and preseason to look forward to...maybe a wildcard win or two if were lucky.

Simmos was ****ing painful to listen to today. ****ing know it all. You were the reason were this ****ed ya flog.

On a better note. Tmac had a blinder.

He's the reason?

Not O'Brien, Rawlings, Vozzo, Nisbett and co?

Just Simmo?

oooooooooooo.k
 
Bit over Hutchinson tbh.

another 7 possie nothing game.

Drop him, get Grego or Malakai in and give them a go.

Hutch: 7, 12, 15,8,12 last games as a mid basically = meh
He's playing in the wrong position. His best games were as inside mid. If we're not going to play him there we should seriously consider dropping him back to the WAFL and playing him as an inside mid.
 
Positive: picked up a free ticket courtesy of AsterixTheGaul.

Negative: nobody else from BigFooty was there.

Positive: a nice lady in the row behind called Joyce thought I looked lonely so she bought me a beer.
"I don't want your charity.... I took it and threw it on the ground!"

Hes a selfish campaigner. **** him
 
Negative: how far back are our skills and fitness teams if Tom McCarthy comes in on debut and secures BOG for us? 31 disposals at 94% is a pipe dream for most of this side.

Hope we take a long, hard look at these areas over the offseason and send a few blokes packing. If I were these clowns I would be very bloody nervous for Monday morning and half expecting a "please explain".
Wait until he gets worse after training with spuds for a month or 2

Jeez Weitering would have monstered Shanahan. He’s going to be a good player but he’d be much better playing as the 3rd tall.

Yeah that's cool and all but I'm still going to whinge.

honestly that's what I'm worried about. They all seem to lose their natural flair.

McCarthy seems to revel in just taking that safest easiest first option then restart. No silly stuff. He seems like a Geelong HB. Our guts fluff around and snap it down field or Duggan style hoof it out of there.
 
Positive - Hedwards got up sore from a contest and I felt concerned.

Negative - Oscar left the field needing help, with something that looked serious and I didn't feel much of anything.

A really tough game to take much away from as the game was over at qtr time so Carlton's intensity became hard to gauge.

McCarthy looked good. Harley is really building into things and Dewar showed a lot, even if I was frustrated with some of the disposal in game. Well done BBW.

TK signing looks like an awful decision. Baffling the club couldn't see it. Hopefully he's on minimum coin.

Flynn continues to be a problem.

Let's see how the boys come out after the bye as we have a real mixed bag of things to take away from the last month or so.
