In all fairness are forwards need to demand the footy and get their arses in front of their opponent.

What is with our 1st quarters?
Started to get into the game about 15 mins into the second.
Something wrong with pregame routine .

Wilkie is an elite kick IMO.


Nee!

Must lift our pressure. I mean, seriously, how easily did GWS move the ball, especially in the first 35 minutes.

Lock them down. FFS get mad and make them earn it.

I wouldnt mind if someone got rubbed out for a couple of weeks for ironing someone out. Just f****** do it.

Bruce needs to separate from Marsh, too often he dragged his defender to Marsh's contest.

Nah, It's the delivery. They need to put the ball to the forwards advantage. If there is a defender in front of them then put the ball somewhere else.

Sinclair Kent and Acres need to lift.
All very droppable.

thought they were going to chuck it in at the start of the second Q but they have stuck at it, a real positive. we have a ruckman :) and if Gresh can get into the game it won't be so bad. We lost the game in the first...just hope they play it out.
Entertaining just watching Parker. Can't wait to get back some personal.

Love the efforts of Marshall, Wilkie and Paton.

Sinclair, Gresham and Kent need to apply pressure at the very least. Getting the ball will help.

Acre needs to start in the centre and be the beast he could become

I think Bruce was going ok, but the bombs make it very hard for him.

They've had 2 possessions each to half time. Going ok?

How good is Wilkie?

The guy just oozes class.

Great ball judgement, makes good decisions and never panics. Plays well beyond his experience at AFL level.

Our delivery inside 50 is worse than rubbish

Truly deplorable last kick inside 50. Seb Ross’ long bombs continue

Wasteful. 13 inside 50s to 2 for the quarter. And we’re a goal each.
