42 to 18 tackle count at half time. How pissweak
To be fair EP actually haven't had the ball for most of subiacos 42 tackles. A lot of holding off the ball going unpenalised

EP have started both quarters ok but have been completely run over in the last 10 or so minutes of each

Way too many turnovers, dropped marks and being led to the ball

11.6 to 4.3 at the half is a fair reflection of subi's dominance

The good (there isn't much)

- Jetta has worked hard all game reflected by his 20 disposals and unlike many of his team mates they've been effective
- Mackenzie has done all he can to stem the flow but has been overwhelmed by sheer weight of numbers
- Brophy and Rotham have tried hard to rebound off half back. Brophy has also given a bit of run and carry. Both have been lead to the ball a bit often though

The rest

- Hutchings, Sheed, mutimer, karpany, Snadden and partington are getting slaughtered as a midfield unit and their disposal numbers are flattering - ineffective or straight out turnovers. Also been fumbly. Karpany has been way off his usual standard with his kicking
- Gorter hasn't had any brain fades at least but has been swamped
- Mcinness has tried hard without much impact
- Lambs good spurt us well and truly over
- Venables has had a really poor game. Looked disinterested at times and at least twice has virtually watched his opponent run past him to gather a loose ball. There's a bit of strapping around his knee that I've not seen before so maybe not 100%

Not much to be positive about

You would think at WAFL level that midfield combo would do quite well. Sheed, Hutchings and Mutimer are all larger bodies. Jetta and Karpany for some outside class. Partington able to win a fair bit of ball .

Bit harsh on snadden keys think he's done alright. They really suffer from a forward target. There is zero movement downfield which makes it hard for the mids

Can't wait for the club to just brush off a humiliating loss and come out and say how prolific one of our players were because they finished with X amount of touches despite the fact they had minimal impact on the actual game.



3 touches for Dusty when he was supposed to be 'building' is just downright depressing. No point letting him build in a forward line getting smashed FFS.

What a ficking shit show that was

Went diwn to the huddle at 3/4 time. Flat as pancakes - no drive or passion to at least have a crack and restore some pride

If they give a shit they sure don't show it

Didn't rate him when we drafted him. Not much has changed.
Agreed he's just going to be another rookie listed player destined to be delisted after a year or two. I mean what were the recruiters thinking, there is no way he'll ever go past any of our other tall defenders.

What makes it even worse is that the club passed on talented players like Liam Ryan. Yes I know that his beep test was bad. If professional strength and conditioning coaches can't help a player improve their running, why do they have jobs? The rookie list is meant for players like Ryan. There is a hole in the list that he could fill.
