No idea what role he was playing but it couldnt have been mid. Was either not on the ground much or ran away from every contest.
So many excuses. Always. It’s not the first time he’s played footy. He’s average. He’s backup.

Played on the wing a fair bit. God knows why we persist with doing that. He's an inside mid and always will be. Naish and Ross on the wings and McIntosh played back. We are all over the place with our positions

Thanks @BrisTiger24 , that explains a lot of what went wrong (playing players out of position). McIntosh and Pickett back to the wing IMO
Geez, how can we not play McIntosh and Pickett on the wings, that was the best wing combo I've seen for a long time.
Ross has to be dropped. He is contributing very little. Maybe you could give him a few full games in the middle to see if he can cut it but I just can't see it, not could I justify selecting him.

Massive disappointment. Has lost all desire for the contest. Where is the Ross from his first few games? Looked like he was gonna develop into a ball winning machine. Have we overloaded him with demands on field coverage and running that he's forgotten how to win the ball. Is sagging back from contests more concerned about covering the exits than winning the ball. Starting to think the way we are developing him may be adversely affecting his game.
Haven’t been as excited as others about JR , been a nightmare of management for the kid this year though, however really thought he’d be a solid tough foot soldier 100 gamer, however won’t give up on him yet, though in saying that Id still move him on in a package to upgrade ( no value atm) , for me it’s back to VFL for atleast a month playing as a pure inside mid , then hopefully he can find real form and get another opportunity before it’s to late
maybe he is just not as good as we thought and his lack of.progression is nothing to do with the club. This is not uncommon.
Pretty poor last night but like RCD I’m just gonna continue to watch him out for the rest of the year before writing him out or in.
Has some talent. Not useless. Sometimes wonder if we’re giving him the right role or not. Who knows. He’ll need to find something. There’s some things there, but whether he’ll find and demonstrate them or not, “time will tell” over the rest of the season, to use a boring cliche.

Nah, was playing much better in his first few games and showed no hesitation at the ball and man. His mindset has definitely changed.
I choose an unfashionable player to support the loudest each year, and this season it’s him. Shorty, KMac and Bakes have done me proud (and Butler before them), so I have faith in Ross. Needs to be allowed to settle into a role, with the spotlight elsewhere, and he’ll turn into a solid soldier.
