When the going gets tough, players are found wanting. Had too many passengers tonight. As inconsistent and spasmodic as Jack Martin has been, if he's fit for next week he has to come in for Honey, who basically only did one really good thing tonight. Weiters in for Kemp is a lock. Has to be. No question. Cerra was so way off tonight he can only improve. I hope. O'Brien was shocking tonight but he has credit in the bank. Newnes while not as bad was equally non-existent. Lesser lights have to play at heir optimum all the time so when we have a double-whammy ineffective forward line (Charlie (1.4 seriously?) & Harry were putrid) and non-clearance out of the middle it relieves the pressure. I can basically recall in my drunken stupor that we had at least 5 directly in front kickable goals squandered during the course of the game.
Charlie x 2
TDK
Hewett
Durdin.
Not talking about on the angle stuff. Directly in front and within the 50 arc. Just atrocious. I may have missed some, oh that's right Jack's left foot snap 20 metres out. So 6 goals gone begging
Positives were that we actually got through the game without injury (at this stage)
Motlop did enough to get another game.
Thought Cripps was outstanding.
Doc does not know the meaning of defeat.
What I wouldn't give for Ed Curnow to have been back for this game. Don't forget him folks. A lot would think that his time is over but until I see him play I'm not giving up on him.
We move on. Another chance to prove ourselves next week against a team we should comfortably get over.
We lost to the F#%$@n Aints FFS. A very average team IMO Horrendous result.
