One positive from the game is that we may get a reprieve from those calling for Charlie to (a) play in the midfield, or (b) spend time in the NBs

Yes another ‘honourable’ loss but Christ a lot of what we watched live was damn exciting! It was enjoyable being at the footy again. Of course there was times that were shake of head stuff but then there was just joyous brilliance and NOT a Crippa in sight!
Had some moments in the second I thought god we are so dumb but then they found their way to right the dumb and off we went again.
I knew that 3 min lapse at the end of the 3rd would bite us but was happy to see real fight. Umpiring pissed me right off too, we don’t want to notice you umps, stop making us notice you for the wrong reasons ????

Let's face it, he has a role.
Is it a role that’s worth $700k a year.

He is a player with upside thats best is in front of him, and he came to a bottom side.
With all of that comes a hefty price tag.
We have to pay it to someone, might as well be to players to jump ship to us as we know the ones we have haven't earned it.

Not sure if it has already been mentioned. But, anyone else notice the weird zone we were playing for the 1st q. Seemed to be one of the reasons they were running riot early. Our lads were guarding space, badly, and they were getting the easy overlap every time

Would you rather we keep recruiting Alex fasolo, Aaron Muller, Darcy lang and Billie smedts types?
On the flipside how does everyone know hes on 700k a year?
That's a lot of money for a bloke squeezed out of adelaide due to cap pressure.

Just got home from the game, what a rollercoaster, plenty of positives (C Curnow, Walsh, Kreuzer after 1/4 time, Setterfield, Murphy), but still too many negatives (McGovern, McKay, too many small mids who can't find the ball and have very little impact on the game)
