Completely breaking down across half forward with Dasher, Weller and Gresh all having stinkers so far.

I said it pre-game and I'll say it now, Weller should not be treated as a lock... he was playing like a rockstar pre-injury and playing one good game in what amounted to a training drill vs Hawthorn shouldn't have earned him any points.

Wright played like a man desperate to impact every contest and he would be handy. Weller is playing like a man who is waiting for his team mates to win the game so he can try hit the highlights reel for a few easy goals

Roo looks like the same old roo , he is doing ok , amazing how he can be singled out when we are struggling..guess it shows how much we rely on him.

I reckon Paddy would be handy today... has a knack for at least bringing the ball to ground... something the forwards have struggled with today though the delivery has been poor

What do ppl think of Gilbert's game...
Quite a few bad errors so far but I feel like we'd be worse off without his attack of the contest...

Delivery inside 50 has been a massive problem for us for ages now. Moving the ball fast tears teams apart but if it makes our last kick terrible maybe we need to slow it up a fraction.

9 see how many have had less. he is not an untouchable god just pointing out that some on here have a poor grip of what is going on.

Can't see how Paddy could fix our disposal to the forward line

I'd expect more from Weller than most of the others
