Am really not liking Jones or Byrnes at the moment… not great disposal… in which case you need a lot of ball and they’re barely near it.

Hate that Butler walked right back in and hasn’t gotten near it

King, Membrey, Coops and Caminati is just too tall.

Seems like everyone but the club saw that coming… heck I posted it on the team selection thread

They’re running the ball out of there liberally

And like everyone else… WTF is going on with Owens. He can’t get near.

One thing I’d like to see… Stocker has gone a lot more defensive this year. Kid is decent with the ball in hand. Wouldn’t mind seeing him run in the middle a bit.

Bonner for all his faults, has turned up every week so far

I disagree with the negative assessments to a certain extent. Yes, we were poor in Q1, and yes we've allowed Martin and Bolton too much leeway. But we adjusted really well in Q2 and throttled the Tigers attack, while creating quite a few chances of our own. Like last week, our kicking for goal let us down.

We can still win this if we start nailing our shots on goal. (Big "if", I know.)

A few players need to fkn lift

Sharman- playing on a wing has been s***
Owens - almost Worst on Ground
Butler - is not having any impact
Caminiti- goal hungry
Zac Jones - 7 possessions in a half as a mid

Few other

Really disappointing first half. They started like they finished off last week, and so did we.

1.7 and a number that didn’t score.

Laughable.

Why doesn’t Sinclair just put it thru half goalpost high running in from 50?

Joke.

How is it so obvious to everyone except the person kicking inside 50 that you can’t bomb it off a slow build up like that or McIntosh or Nank will clean up….

Should we be worried about a drug test?

Caminiti as second ruck is a better option than Owens
