The three certainties of life:
1. Death.
2. Taxes.
3. Hawthorn forever being our bogey team.

In stunned. Worst we've played for ages. Not sure how we come back from here.
Nah. We have been playing less and less proportion of matches well.
Unfortunately, I think I am out of excuses…
Prime suspects 1 and 2 are centre clearance and ground ball gets. We lost centre clearance 18-3. 18-3!
I feel nearly all other issues can be traced back to these.
Form another issue.
Players unable to step up when Nick is getting the hard tag.
I don’t want to go for an early melt, but I do fear something is amiss and I am now worried.
I hope we can turn it around.
P.S Beau battled hard all day-
for him.
P.P.S I hope Jacqui Louder has a free schedule this week.

The result doesn’t matter. The performance of our midfield and our lack of intensity is now quite concerning in terms of our broader aspirations this year. Get McCreery into the middle full time next week.
Was nice while it lasted. There’s no flag in this side
18-3 centre clearances
18-3 centre clearances

Can we now finally agree that we are not a great team?
Bit of a fork in the road point for the season isn't it. Will the players respond or continue down the path of oblivion?

Serious questions need to asked of this playing group after the last 2 weeks!
The midfield is getting belted and the desire seems to have gone.
Top 2 looks shaky now

Just a bit of short term fluff before the oldies retire. Worst performance by a pies side since buckley's last few games. Absolutely embarassing. The players should give back their money for this one...

3 centre clearances for the match. The opposition midfield is young & up & coming. But hardly star studded.
‘Lazy ball watchers today.

Hawks played well, all over the ground and across 4 quarters.
Us? Not so much.
A focus on positives, McStay is working into things quite nicely.
Beau just doesn't know when to give up, but he should speak to some folks on our game day thread who will teach him all he needs to know about spitting the dummy.

Taylor Adams, again VFL level.
Make a statement and drop him.

The only upside is that the weaknesses are there for all to see. The question is whether we can remedy them.
Lipinski must surely go out after a year he never got going.
Ash Johnson's lack of defensive pressure makes him borderline unselectable from this point on.
I don't personally see what Cameron offers over Cox, and he was poor again today. The whole forward structure was non existent without another big body down there.
But most concerningly, the lack of intensity has been responsible for our recent drop off. That's not something that can be fixed easily.
This will be Fly's biggest test by a long margin.

Those saying Pendles has been awful... Our biggest issue is him and Sidey were in our best today

One of the more disgusting games of footy from our midfield in a long time. Smashed in every stat line.
I know Craig is basically one of thr boys but geez I would be absolutely dirty during the review this week.

There are too many blokes playing like millionaires with half arsed one handed attempts at taking the ball, running ahead of the stoppages when their boots aren’t filled with cement for a cheap kick and pulling out of contests.
Drop a bunch of them. At least Lipinkski
Naicos is to slight at the moment to play midfield, must go to half back again and put crisp in.
Frampton must play Moore cannot play FB he plays grass not an opponent and been found out.
I'll give the forwards a pass today as the midfield disgraced themselves.
