Weitering is too selfish, not a team player. Darcy Moore is so much better than him.

The cause is when blokes give the hot potato or grub a 15m kick to someone surrounded by 2 or 3 opponents and then don't chase when it is inevitably turned over, that's game over.
The cause happens repeatedly, and the D50 can't stop them all, there are just too many repeats of the same old same old.
I was a defender in soccer. I led the backline. I was sitting behind the goals. He takes off from a 2 on 1 against leaving two players because he isn't communicating with his mates, because he doesn't trust them. Young was the problem. Mcgovern is the problem. Newman is the problem. Kemp is the problem. At one point he was up the ground near the halfway line leaving chol with Kemp in the second quarter. Players are sacrificing their position to take weiters up the ground leaving Kemp one out undersized. It's been happening since the giants game.
You're welcome to disagree but I know what I'm seeing and it's a player pulling his own defense out of shape because he's too worried about too much and not delegating.
You can thank the AFL for the hot potato. Since that rule interpretation mid year we have lost our one wood.

MacGovern has been a problem for a long time.
Delivered very little. Given very little back. Taken a lot of coin. Always injured or seemingly playing with a injury. If we had an options I'd show this pest the door.

Most clubs at the pointy end of the ladder have 2 , 3 or even 4 KPDs at the top and of the intercept marks count, Weitering is our only player in the top 30, Kemp is at 33 and McGovern is at 53!
Think about that in context of our squad and it's strengths, you know our big bodied team, how can it be a team with our size barely rates on IMs outside of Weitering, and the only bloke making intercepts you want to pot!
There is a reason Owies stood out today, because what he tried to do you just don't see from our blokes!
