Why does the team give Murphy so many frees? He gets rid of the ball and they still give Carlton a further advantage. Discipline guys. We need you think more sensibly rather than run on pure emotion especially against the wind.


Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.

we get a 50 that gets him just still inside the 50 when he was already 20 out. They have got to be on the take from crims.

Umpires are truly incompetent.

Are they stupid or corrupt?

Lonie has been great and I dont even care about his woeful pass that cost a goal. What I am concerned about are his 2 extremely soft efforts in th last 10 minutes. I hope he can get that out of his game. Fiora like.

Saad, same thing, not thinking and gives 50.

Agree that effort at all times is paramount.

Time for Longer to have a break - if Hickey gets a run at it we shouldnt see Longer again for a while

I am assuming this comment relates to skills although not sure.

I am more concerned that the team sustains effort and pressure. Skills will generate as the younger guys get used to the speed on the game.

Lonie is filling my heart with joy and hope. He has a touch, smarts and vision about him that is superb.

Fell apart. Embarrassing and pathetic. One of the few games we genuinely had a chance of winning.

That we too will be better once the young players who can use it mature a bit!

Far too many bit part players that don't touch the ball. They are nearly AFL players,but having an abundance of nearly AFL footballers leaves you on the bottom.

Like last week Sinclair went MIA after qtr time. Still a long way to go despite the flashes of cool headedness. Blues half backs got right on top after half time and that's where the fwd pressure efforts need to be better.
