Hope we come out and make a big statement by dominating the Blues like in the JLT. Show the rest of the league last week was no fluke. Go Saints!

Carlton first and absolute blatant push in the back missed by the ump

Billings on fire with our 1st and now Bruce with the 2nd

Why on earth is Ben Dixon still involved in footy media? Adds zero to the coverage and indeed, is dribbling shite today. A lot of people wouldnt even remember his GOP career

Delivery to the forwards is ordinary, and Bruce not working hard enough- can't judge marks at all

The forward line is a mess- all playing from behind waiting for the easy ball out the back- makes it hard for the player coming down the ground- no targets.

Going forward is hopeless, so wasteful time and time again.

On the other hand Carlton,as they always do scrap there goals with every opportunity they get. They do it every week

This game is gone if it continues it's current trend. We are being completely outplayed now in all areas

OK. This is the Melbourne game all over again. They hold possession and we run ragged chasing with no reward.
Tackles aren't sticking, kicks are not hitting targets - Weller, Gresham, Minchington nowhere. We are being out pressured and it shows our weaknesses. Dunstan is a witches hat. One stoppage Carlton left him wide open, knowing if the ball came to him it was not going to go anywhere. Our work rate is poor. Our disposal into fwd 50 is rushed and poor, no terrible. Long afternoon unless some changes are made in the second half. Lack of a second ruck is not helping this week. Webster off is also an issue in defense too. Billings is keeping us in the game with his fwd movement. Our forwards structure is not effective.
Rant over...we will be ok, just need to settle and not rush everything.

Good call. Need to focus on basics, stick tackles and hit targets inside 50

Can our tall forwards get out of each other's way?
