Game Day Round 5 vs Crows

Bakers a gun , like Bolton hell always kick goals, however imho we are better with both up the ground
Oh for sure Id be giving Shai a run on the ball every Qt, he just doesnt seem to have the necessary tank to do it for long spurts though............ Bakes is a complete enigma, I love his aggression and "go at full speed mentality", but it also leads to far too many mistakes at times. I loved him off the back flank, but Rioli is fitting in nicely back there and I think Bakes offers you more in attack and on the ball than Dan does. Look, both are vital to the future, need to get consistency into their games, but my word they do have great natural ability Brighty.
 
It’s tough when you take on the umps every week.

Geez these umpires are gutless. Just pay whatever the crowd will be happy with. Don't say rude words to us either please.

Disappointing but not unexpected result against a clear bottom 8 team. We are now and average team an average teams throw up performances like this. Inconsistency.

Would not surprise me at all if we take it right up to Melbourne next week. But it does seem we can no longer maintain the effort and intensity required week in week out.
Perfectly summed up Riddles....... people need to lower their expecations of this team and get far more realistic as to what they are capable of, bottom 8 is where we are at currently.

Surely questions have to asked of this umpiring?
yeah some discipline and skill issues but not to the tune of 33-13?
Crows seemed to get everything that was a hint of a free, and we get 'play on'

10-12 wins this year. We will bob up in a game or two looking a million bucks. We will come out as montys in a few and get rolled. We will get blasted of the park a couple more times too. And we won't touch the 2-3 real contenders.

That old anger turned to numb feeling from the mid 2000’s. We are once again a middle of the table football club.
