Bauer might have been worth a try, although I think they’re looking at him as a 2025 option.Surely they could have tried Bauer up forward today. Even Blight up forward to see if he could be a tall target.

No.Does that mean there’s hope for Ryan?
I’d agree with that. He’s pretty much our entire midfield at present.Meats our best so far I reckon.
WTF?, been trying all game. Dont you dare compare him to Ty.Brown is possibly the least competitive tiger I have seen since Vickery. Just does not like a physical contest.Not sure where he is best suited.
in the good years you always knew the defensive player was going to be out the front of the stoppage, or we would be queuing up to hunt them down from the front - bang, bang, bang. - those were the days. There was no waltzing out the front of stoppages against usFMD. We must be the most inefficient team of the AFL era.
Inside 50s 34 to 21. Us 6 goals them 7. Us nearly 1 in 6 them 1 in 3. Not an outlier this year or even this month.
Disposal efficiency Us 69. Them 80.6
Uncontested ball Us 111 them 139
Tackles Us 25 them 36.
We need to play out of our skins contest wise just to stay close. Once that tapers off it's goodnight Irene.
And that's coaching and structure. Can only hope Yze is deliberately tanking.
Tackles were 14-14 at quarter time. North upped their defensive pressure in the 2nd. Hopper is a big worry. 4 efficient disposals, 3 turnovers is just not good enough for 1 of your 2 primary inside midfielders.FMD. We must be the most inefficient team of the AFL era.

If they kicked the thing to a forward's advantage it would be nice. We saw the difference when it happened. Agreed the fwd line is impotent but the entry doesn't help. Kick it along the ground rather than bomb it in at worse!Surely they could have tried Bauer up forward today. Even Blight up forward to see if he could be a tall target.
He goes one handed, does not bodyline the ball, is pushed or moved easily. Despite not being small. Cannot see what his best position is. I dislike those that avoid contact. It stands out live.Reads the drop of the ball pretty well.
Are they dragging him away. decoy time?Balta - one possession down back. Has been horrible. Unable to get to contests. The constant changing between back & forward has caught up with him.
I’m at the game and I don’t think I’ve been less enthused at a match as I am now (and as a 35 year member I’ve been to a lot of crappy games over the years). If you didn’t realize it before, you can tell this is between 17th & 18th on the ladder.Hah hah hah. Just saw a bloke crack it over this. $14.50 apparently. Justified cracking it I reckon. Almost as bad as the warm can of beer I'm drinking.

Need lotsa glue on one hand.Does that mean there’s hope for Ryan?
Agree.I’m at the game and I don’t think I’ve been less enthused at a match as I am now (and as a 35 year member I’ve been to a lot of crappy games over the years). If you didn’t realize it before, you can tell this is between 17th & 18th on the ladder.
But back to more important matters. In regards to the chicken and chips. I believe it’s the same catering mob that does both the mcg and marvel grounds. If so, can the afl explain why at the ‘G, you get 3 strips and a bit more chips for $14.50, but at this shithole of a ground you only get 2 strips and what tastes like 5 year old cold chips for $14.90?
It’s like he has checked outBalta - one possession down back. Has been horrible. Unable to get to contests. The constant changing between back & forward has caught up with him.
