GAME DAY Tigers V Pies

The elephant is still in the room.
Our million-dollar man is still coasting. In a great team, you can get away with choosing when you go. Dusty looked lethargic again in the last quarter. Must be carrying an injury.
 
he had the ball running into the fwd 50 all he had to do was kick it towards the goal square, he *smile* himself and handballs over his head unsighted , pies got it , went onto a goal
his footy smarts are questionable and not the first time
Personally I think we did too much kicking aimlessly towards the goal square.

Liked Garth, Mansell and Stacky.

Shorty and Kam couldn't hit a target even if it were the size of the Titanic.

Loved Grimes, what an underrated AA gun.
Yeh unfortunately for us KMac got a lot of the ball.

Absolute butcher. Kalamity is back big time. In think Collingwood just let him get it because they knew he'd give it straight back. Terrible game.

Shorty was good with 26 efficient disposals. Kmac was woeful.

I can't recall a reigning premier and supposed premiership fancy fall so fast in a season. 4 games ago we were going to beat the Eagles with 10 minutes to go and top 4 was an achievable goal. Now we are on current form the worst team in it and looking at a bottom 4 finish. The velocity of our descent has been bullet train like.

I'm quite staggered; it seems we have lost the will to compete. And our players skills have disappeared; we're quite woeful at the moment.

Just watched Dimmas presser. Does put things in perspective. But please give me break with “they are one of the better teams in comp”

It would be nice to see one of kids come in and start influencing games.
They aren't picks 60's.
Cd and Dow were running on the spot after half time.
 
thought we were ok, then the last Q happened.
momentum killer when Aarts went backwards handball over the head into nowhere after trying to do too much instead of just booting the ball forward. Pies goal.
kids just not quite there in the last, shame
Jack started it with his insipid effort running toward goal. Jack was embarrassed by Maynard in almost every one in one. I don’t want to watch that sort of stuff each week. Watch a replay and count how many times he was beaten by Maynard. Maynard has become a very good player but Jack should beat him or at least halve contests. Can’t see how we won’t see more of this in 2022 from Jack.
Of course it doesn’t halp
Missing half your midfield but I expect more from Jack. He wasn’t up for the fight. Understandable, he’s got 3 flags, a young family and a bright media future. He’s lost the edge (ditto crotch, Astbury, Houli). It’s no shame.
Perhaps things will change if we had the full list to choose from but there’s bad signs.

They were struggling to kick goals in their games.
But watching the game today i had a feeling they would come back.
It's not rocket science that Chol Rioli Cathwaite Naish and Astbury were useless.
It dosent help when Flappers constantly kicks it back the Oppostion.

He doesn’t mean it. They’re just words to fill the air. Coaches are compelled to do the pressers. If he could get away with it he’d like to tell them to *smile* off and leave him just do his job.

I thought that was the weakest pies backline I can remember. No Howe, No Moore. Maynard playing tall.

Our forward entries all year have been putrid. Hasn't improved at any stage

Yeah but he doesn't have to make himself look like a fool by saying the side that is 15th on the ladder is one of the better teams in the comp. That's ridiculous.
