My Thoughts:

Grundy showed how Important he is to us. You could really tell when he was not on the Ground

Our Gameplan seems to be better with Wells as we move the Ball Better with him

Aish was solid. Took the Game On a Bit and Used more Long Kicks instead of his Dinky Kicks or Handballs

Moore was Solid in the Ruck but way out matched vs Mumford

Our Lack of Compsure Killed us in last Qtr

Blair hopefully not play again with No-Chance of Finals Now

WHE might need a Break seems to be bit Tired

Schade was Awful vs Cameron

We have still no Crumbers

First...we have a very good midfield and a crap forwardline and backline.
Second...The skill level of a number of players is below standard.
In a very competitive system the flaws of a weak back and forward line coupled with poor skills will kill you.
And you cannot realistically expect the midfield to carry you through to the finals.

Yep, time to bring in the likes of young Daicos, Scharenberg, Wills, and why not this fella Kirby, put em all in v the piss and poo, and put young Daics on that old prick Gibson, give the old bloke the run round. Time to roll the dice, nothing to lose now, who dares, wins.

Unfortunately Figjam won't do that, because, well, **** he's good, just ask him!

Desperate now though, desperate measures, in desperate times.

Does anyone else reckon that Pendles is playing like someone with something other than football on his mind? (Not that I blame him).

Yep.
Seems the world is on his shoulders.
lacks a spring in his step.
I wouldn't be surprised that in future he will come out and say that he was not enjoying playing in 2017.

Gutting loss, certainly better effort than last week

[Jezza]

No wonder everybody on this forum is close to losing their f*cking minds...

I'm fine

[HAL]

Are they exactly the same?

[doriswilgus]

We definltely need to recruit a couple of key position forwards,because we have absolutely no marking power up forward.If we actually had someone who could take a contested mark on the forward line,it would make huge difference to this side,

Hate to say it, I'll probably get hammered for this but Goldsack is past it.

I thought Goldsack was one of our better players tonight.

Funny how people see things so differently. I thought he was probably in our top 3. Made one howler but most of them did that.

Goldy awesome playing possibly the best footy of his career.
Adams is a warrior.
Blair, went missing but hit the scoreboard. Couldn't possibly drop him.
DeGoey, improving by the week. An extractor and quality user.
Maynard, gunna be a gun. Two goals tonight.

These are some of the culprits some in here are blaming for our loss. Oh, and the coach of course. We were great tonight and the only reason we lost was due to a simple mistake from a player that should know better. Lynden Dunn kicked out to a contest with 1 min on the clock. Maybe nobody got into space, maybe the runner didn't tell him. In an arm wrestle That was where we lost the game. End of story.

IMO Goldsack has been one of our better players all year.

I'm not here to bag any player, they're playing in the comp I never did but personally think his reaction time off the ball and third man up for example has past him, cost us a few goals today but has tried his guts out and done some great things this year too. Maybe it's best for me to leave it to the better judges.

[Jpies]

Pendlebury has been good but I think he is past the stage where he shapes games. He's becoming a very good player, not the great that he was three seasons ago,

I hope not. It would be quite an early decline if so.

Every star has a quiet patch, he'll be fine.

It's no longer Figjam, it's Figjae - i.e. *** I'm good, just ask Ed
