Oh gee BM what is your problem? Scott coached well tonight. Considering the late out of Lenny, Fisher not anywhere near his best and still missing Gwilt from the backline, Stanley was always going to take Cloke, up until halfway through the last quarter he only had 2 goals. Cloke monsters most backmen the key is always to have a player helping make it a 2 on one unfortunately most of Clokes goals came from 1 on 1 contests.
Well it's better to have a hen tomorrow than an egg today!
Give the guy a chance; we need to find a few new players for a few positions but I have no doubt we will get there. Remember Ross Lyon turned a top 6 team into a team finishing 9 in his first year, change takes time.. and finding great players takes even longer.
Out coached should not be confused with not having he talent and personnel to execute. He knows it too as he has reverted to more defence and flooding.

Like the move of Pushing Pendlbury forward to isolate Jones?
The use of McAffer to use his strength to buffet Dal
Using the out of form Thomas as the loose and run him into touch with 34 of the easiest possessions he'll ever get
Shaw to expose Milne on the rebound
The selection of Witts to stretch us... Jolly kicked two fwd
Isolating the Stanley match up.... With no spare 3rd up
Harry o being opponentless
On he flip side
The sling shot worked to keep us in the game
Nick Riewoldt was simply Herculean and his performance alone made things respectable...
The style was one to defend and be competitive.... It was never going to result in victory.. We flooded big time.... But it was a fair plan, just th match ups were wrong IMO.... Especially down back

The Pendles move worked out badly once before half time.
We are entitled to think Dal could win one on one ball vs McCaffer. Let's not endlessy excuse Dal from personal responsibility
Thomas did little damage early.
Milne's done.
Hickey's struggling physically - he's a 21 y.o. ruckman who's played less than 20 games.
The Stanley thing worked OK to half time - then Pendles and Swan started to get the pill
