Very frustrating watching this on Fox

Virtually no replays of key moments. Have been a few dodgy calls I would have liked to seen again.

I’d rather we kept Ginnivan.

Our forward line is cooked.

Moore is a nothing key backman. Can only play the soft role.

Moore is getting beaten cold. He hasn't been a factor in the aerial duels. His field kicking has lacked penetration and he hasn't been allowed to run.
Longmire has done his homework - very good coach.

Ash Johnson so hoped he’d step up but he is so out of his depth. Can’t get front position can’t hold his marks. Terrible, back to the 2s.

Ash is having a shocker but a nice contested possession near the end of that quarter..

Was thinking if McRae can turn Jack Ginnivan around and have him firing at the end of the season… then I trust in the plan for Ash.

Not true - they did manage to show the McCreery holding the man free 50 times

Put Ash Johnson on the market now. How can it be that there are only two Pies in the forward 50, Johnson and Mihocek, and they both compete for the mark. Has Johnson actually taken a mark or just looked spectacular in dropping them.
De Goey needs to understand he can't always bull his way through and be smarter in disposal.
Can Markov kick to a target?
Geez this is frustrating to watch. Moore trying to mark when he should spoil.
The skill errors are appalling.
Who's on Heeney?

Is it just me or are we playing as slow as treacle? This is embarrassing. I'd say the parallels with Geelong last year are apt. We are now the oldest list in the comp with not as many stars as the Cats had. Certainly no forwards anywhere near the quality of Cameron or Hawkins. So if they didn't make the eight after their flag, one wonders where we'll finish up.

Nick Daicos aside we look like a VFL team at the moment. Cox has shown something I'll give him that.

Unfortunately I see a premiership hangover happening.We’re just not prepared to do the hard things to win games at the moment.

Agree - playing like the reserves. McCreery, Nick and Cameron are the only triers.

We're desperate for some line breaking runs from defence, it was part of our DNA. Longmire has cut the head off the snake.
Back to basics in the 3rd qtr, beat your man.

Fatal move by Bobby Hill to blond his hair. Remember that Daisy Thomas was never half the player he was when he cut his hair - fact!
