East Perth playing poorly

Not really anything positive to report other than Mitch brown got through a quarter without injuring himself

Being out worked and it's showing on the scoreboard

Barass being asked to do a mountain of work down back and is doing what he can but fighting against the tide

Ellis has made some uncharacteristic mistakes

Lamb has been his characteristic lazy self

Brown rusty

Giles had a good patch midway through the 2nd but not a lot else

Adamson has worked hard without influencing the game greatly

Snadden, parto and Allen haven't been able to get into the game

Colledge been ok but disposal letting him down. Ditto Lucas

McInnes not much from him

Bennell flashed in to the game on occasion but has been pushed off it too easily

Brophy has looked a little lost as to what to do when the balla Ben coming in and is getting caught out of position

Lamb's the sixth highest possession winner in the team, so it's hard to believe he's being lazy

Colledge and Lucas list cloggers. Adamson, would love to see a debut this season . Maybe a Lecras replacement if his form doesn't improve a pressure forward who can swing through the midfield.

He pushed down back a bit in that quarter and found more of the ball. Disposal was average at best
 
Ugly display by the Royals, very few of our guys could hold their heads high after that performance. Barrass is definitely one, holding Shepheard to just two goals was a great effort. Adamson did some nice things. Giles worked hard but should have had more than 1 goal 4. Brown was OK in his first game back. Lucas had his standard game.

Now, the airing of the grievances.

Colledge and Bennell were completely non-existant, apart from Bennell giving away a 50 in the last quarter. Partington and Snadden were similarly invisible but they've at least got youth and inexperience as an excuse. As Keys said, Ellis made some uncharacteristic errors. Lamb worked a bit harder than I've seen in the past but made some stupid decisions. McInnes didn't do a whole lot. Brophy was alright. Allen kicked East Perths best goal of the day (not that much of a challenge, but it was a good effort) in the last term but was barely sighted apart from that.

Saw most of the second half of the ressies. Mutimer looked very good, he'll be in line for promotion. Tunbridge was reasonable playing as a forward. Karpany seemed to be completely devoid of confidence, he was giving away plenty of shots on goal that a player of his ability should really be taking.

He's at this point done enough to earn a crack at AFL level, problem is it's going to be hard to fit him in to the current structure. Brisbane round 13, then the bye, then Essendon in round 15 - thoughts on his chances to crack a healthy Eagles side around then?
