Including a few pathetic turnovers when kicking off one step (under no pressure) after a mark or free kick.

We're now bottom 4 where we belong.
It's not the only issue, but we're 18th for goal efficiency. Coleman medallists or not, that's costly and a motivation killer.

Brodie Kemp, could you please teach your teammates to hit a target like that? Only Saady kicks as well as you, and he’s not getting as much of it recently

I love him but it's time for him to go.

Plays 2 great games then 4 or 5 B-grade efforts, if not complete crapters. Disposal accuracy is definitely questionable. Especially under pressure. Not that quick. Not a tackle machine. I would drop him for something in youth. Our season is all but over. Get the kids in. They may step up and at least develop at top level.Im not a fan either but after starting the night with an OOTF, I think he tried his guts outs. That collision on the wing was huge, didn't/doesnt shirk.

Now suddenly he’s bad for the culture, bad attitude, not good enough, only had one good year.Micky my problem with him is he tries to do too much and that's probably the captain trying to carry his side and take on too much responsibility. He needs to get back to his basic best, win hard contests, squirt ball out quick. Thats it. No trying to run and take on players, no heroics, just to Crippa things, that's what we needed last night.
He seems professional to me. Got a running coach, a speaking coach. Taking it upon himself to improve himself. Yet now he’s the problem?
Saw a HUGE number of players get the ball. Stop, think, unsure, no fking idea, pass it sometimes ok but mostly terrible kicks or crap handballs. No one running for anyone to make position, no grunt, no shepherding.
Yet Cripps is the problem?

They were all gettable, regulation shots for fwds. Convert a few of those and we go into half time with an ok lead. Not Saying the 7 to 2 goal 3rd qtr wouldnt have happened but it may have looked totally different. Those misses absolutely deflate us every time.

Cripps has had one good year in four - it's time to move him on.
Prime players that have under performed over a number of years should be moved on.
