The problems today are not forward related, we are being smashed around the ball!

Im fuckin' sick of this club. What a fuckin' joke!
Re: NAB Challenge: Carlton vs. Essendon Sunday 28th Feb - Robblues - 02-28-2016
Think we will see wholesale changes this half, can see McKay SOSOS on off Jones , change in the forward players

Murphy, Gibbs, Walker, Cripps, Kreuzer would make a big difference but Essendon is missing many more and making us look like a disorganised rabble.
Their entire back half is missing and we haven't taken a single mark inside 50.
It's going to be a very long season fellas.

Yep
But our mid-field is on the sidelines today...they'll be back.
They're not an issue long term.
The lack of effective forwards will be what will bring us undone during the season.
Hopefully the second half will see an improvement in that area with McKay and Jack having a run....but if the midfield problem persists they might not see a lot of it.

As I have said many times, our primary problems are not the forwards, not the ruckmen, not the 200cm types, it has never been the 200cm types not when it was Hammer, SpecialK, Casboult, Rowe and others who were inside F50. Our main problem has been, and will continue to be, use of the ball which remains abhorrent compared to other AFL teams. Not just from a kicking accuracy perspective but from a decision making perspective as well.
We have been, we still appear to be, and are likely to remain in the near future, the worst users of the ball in the competition. Our very best stand out in our team, but our best are very average when compared to other clubs.

Spot on Lods we know we have a respectable mid field on the side lines today, but we don't have any of our "forward line" on the sidelines , there really isn't anyone who would command a place there. So let's hope McKay & maybe SOSOS gives us some support options , so far this year in a game & half we have 6 goals and in any NAB cup game for any side that is very poor

Baby SOS starting (or did he head to the bench? LOL - nope just spotted him)
