Great start but we need to convert better.

Took Marshall about 2 minutes to show more ability than Longer has in the last 18 months.

Our set shot confidence is so low absolutely no one wanted to take one.

Skills still poor, very fumbly.

Paddy has shown a bit, would be nice if he could do something near goal tho...

The umps are fine.

Our disposal is not.

No free as Murphy grinds Savage in the back Marshall takes a clear contested grab play on.

Acres one one out deep gets headlocked clear free ignored commentators can’t believe it.

This just shows clear as day your inability to judge the umpiring. Savage was 100% done holding the ball, the fact you can’t see it is both alarming and not surprising.

Maybe worry more about 2.7 instead of the umpires.

Crows can dispose of the ball however they like.

Umps have missed 4 frees to us in the last 10 minutes

I agree with that one Curly, should have been a shot at goal to Acres.

Learn the rules as Long is taken high play on Crows clear the ball.

Umpires are insane...

Acres pinned for everything, Long just lost his head...
Crows = slightest infringement is a free and 50m
