Fox says it's 15. The lack of midfield pressure has killed us all year. It's as if the players refuse to run the other way.

I don't think Graham is, and Buckley I'm not sold on.
Graham is very average, not quick, not strong, average skills, a good VFL player.
Buckley has more flair but he's very light and not as good as he thinks he is.

Spot on, there are way bigger problems than Arnfield out there.
At least Armfield plays his role and gives 100%.

We fumble way too much
We make bad decisions
We don't take our chances
We don't pressure anywhere near enough
We don't execute the basic skills properly a lot of the time
Geelong are toying with us.

=no pressure. The midfield are just not running. Geelong are stringing multiple possessions together under no pressure. Of course it makes their forwards look good. Get man on man, tackle hard and things might look up

Well let's find out. We already know what Armfield brings, and it's not good enough.

I didn't say he was perfect, but by far not our worst. I've seen some turn overs and stupid kicks. One from 2E out of the goal square kicking the ball back into play was a classic. Spoiled straight back next to the point post. Criminal. Curnow has kept Selwood quiet which I am happy with. The rest just isn't that entertaining at all. Sloppy crap footy.

How is it that Casboult, a man who weighs 100kegs goes in for the arm tackle then and falls over.
Someone teach him how to drop the shoulder and drive through his player. Weak effort.
