So tired of losing and trying to stay positive. It’s really wearing thin. Yes we are an improvement on last year but the rest of the Comp improves so still can’t see where the wins will come from
We just don’t have leaders who at critical stages can involve themself on the result. We have Cripps and then daylight.
Our senior core today consisted of Simpson, Murphy, Thomas, Phillips, Jones and Fasolo. Most of that group contribute but not one influences a match or is the difference when we need it.
I know we can’t do much about this now and getting in McGovern and Newman has helped but reckon the rebuild is painfully slow in part because of the lack of true leaders they can carry the kids in the stages of the game when they go missing.
And some of the coaching and MC decisions really make me wonder. Fasolo is not fking match fit so how does he get a game. Is slow and looks lazy. And Garlett is an embarrassment to be wearing the jumper. If he isn’t the softest afl player going around I don’t know who is. Hates any sort of contact and prefers to knock the ball around then pick it up in any contested situation.... all because he doesn’t want the contact. Disgusting.
Neither can be selected next week. They just can’t.
I finally saw something from Polson today - will take another 10 games like that before I say there is hope but in fairness must hold his place on that effort.
And Weitering was great again, looks settled and best of all is backing himself. Credit to SPS as well, looked classy in traffic and tried his guts out.
Was also happy with McGovern and McKay is developing nicely just needs to improve his tank. Looks rooted in the last quarter.
Would give settlefield and definitely Walsh a run in the 2s. Don’t want to burn them out and both looked like they struggled with the tempo today.
Cant wait for Kruezer to come in. Cripps needs some protection before we break this poor bloke in two.
