Some one mentioned Goldy —well of the aging brigade you can play this guy forward or back
Not saying he’ll play but am saying he won’t take a backwoods step because his whole career is based on having a dip

One Nine 5 o’clock news Jamie Elliott after training said he is right for Friday
Although my hamstring strain minor we erred on the side of caution he said
Allow that he is right to play the year out without relapse will help and I wonder the addition of he and in form Crocker will bulk up front half

These piss and pooh bastards have troubled us for bloody yrs, far too long, beating them is a rare event. However, they are not the side they were, a shadow of themselves. But, we have mass injuries, our forward line was impotent last game, did not exist Our whole side played utter shit last game, not one winner, and we ran up the white flag, as Bucks said. If we have any integrity, and guts, any determination, grit, we will come out and bust our guts to win this game, make up for last weeks shocking non effort. Just hit these pricks hard, from first bounce, and play with flair and passion for once, right the wrongs of last week. Have a red hot go, and get our season back on track, we have to win this one, we have too. !!

If we think bringing in Crocker and Goldsack to a side that has struggled to hit targets and score in the past 2 months vs mediocre teams is the tonic to turn this ship around...man, are we in trouble.

Our cupboard is just about bare, so improvement won’t come from the ressies. If we don’t respond with a fierce attack on the ball and opponents then we are phucked.
With Reid gone, Crocker should come in, if only as a ploy to draw opponents away from JDG. I’d also drop Brown and. Ring in IQ or Noble. |

| Players had a closed door heart-to-heart, nothing was left unsaid. I reckon a few bromances were broken today, but hopefully egos were broken too. Pendles was pretty clear he hasn't had a session like that in a long time. |

Good that is a real good sign, sounds like they feel ashamed, and are out to make amends, this week, I feel a bit better now. This was our wake up call.

And it's Breust's 200th...But we've handled opposition milestones well this year (Travis Boak, Easton Wood) - I think we'll come out breathing fire and turn our form around.

What might add to our difficulty is the top clubs including us will have started the month of heavy training load which then eases up in the run to the finals. That's won't be helping any of them, and adding to the chance of upsets.

On the back of what can only be described as a insipid performance by the majority of the team I think we need to really look hard at our game style and structure
Last season we had relentless pressure and moved the ball quickly
This season we are moving the ball slowly and cautiously which is to prevent turnovers
We have gone from 15th in marks taken in 2018 to 3rd this season which is a dramatic switch and it hasn't worked
Bucks always said we are a grunt contested side well we are playing like a bunch of soft posers at the moment and I think some of our wins have masked that
Some one mentioned the other day about integrity in selection well how about some integrity in performance as well
Pendles say they had a closed door heart to heart means nothing unless we come out and perform
There's a old saying winners celebrate losers have meetings
Our hardness around the ground has been dismal and last week highlighted the fact
So we have situation of the players now having closed meetings and hopefully so home truths came out of it
As for selection this week
Is Noble ready to play the Stephenson role or at least provide some speed in the forward 50 ?
Is Elliott right to go ?
For mine the line up this weekend looks like
B Crisp Roughead Maynard
HB Scharenberg Moore Aish
C Trelaor Phillips Sidey
HF Noble Checkers WHE
F Elliott Cox JDG
R Grundy Seir Pendles
INT Daicos Brown Greenwood Mayne |

I'm not sure the camera angle did him no favors on that. It would be pretty uncharacteristic of him, it looked to me like he was trying to tap it past him and got a bad bounce. He was plenty hard in other contests.
AHoles in the media make a career of kicking tyres on under performing cars. The trouble is football teams are not cars. Roos and the Dogs before them are fighting for the eight and are better teams than their win loss indicates.
Any given season is a pretty organic process. The boys have been up for a long time now and need to recharge their focus. They have plenty of time to get it together.
